Title: Apparatus and method for determining a drilling mode to optimize formation evaluation measurements
Inventor: CRARY STEVEN F
IPC: E21B47/00
Filed: 1999-01-21
Abstract: There are many natural pauses during rotary drilling operations where a portion of the drill string remains stationary. Pauses include drill pipe connections, circulating time, and fishing operations. These pauses are used to obtain formation evaluation measurements that take a long time or that benefit from a quiet environment, as opposed to the naturally noisy drilling environment. Various techniques that are sensitive to the mud flow, weight-on-bit, or motion of the drill string may be used alone or in combination to identify the drilling mode and control the data acquisition sequence.

IPC: E04F21/165
Filed: 2003-11-27
Abstract: Une méthode de plâtrage rapide utilisant un ciment sans porosité. Un ciment connu ayant des bulles manque d'adhésion entre les particules et produit souvent des excroissances à la surface qui nécessitent plusieurs couches pour obtenir un beau fini. Un ciment visiblement sans porosité, à base de craie, algicides et autres constituants fournit une base plus dense et de particules plus adhésives mais nécessite une technique spéciale pour assurer une première adhésion à des surfaces de placoplâtre et/ou métalliques, suivie d'un séchage et d'une seule couche de finition prête au sablage. Des outils particuliers sont utilisés et on applique soigneusement l'une et l'autre couche. Comme résultat on obtient une pose plus rapide de quelque 25 % par rapport aux techniques antérieures.</SD OAB>

Patent CA-2475297-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FULTON SCOTT B
IPC: H01M8/04
Filed: 2002-09-24
Abstract: A method is disclosed to heat a direct methanol fuel cell stack system at start-up without using any external energy source. During the start-up period, the fuel cell stack is at open circuit state so that the fuel cell stack is not connected to any external circuit. The methanol solution introduced at the anode side of the fuel cell stack will diffuse through the proton conductive membrane to the cathode side of the fuel cell stack. The methanol diffused from the anode side will be oxidized at the cathode side by oxygen in the air stream. This oxidation reaction generates heat that heats up the fuel cell stack and the system. The concentration of methanol in the methanol solution can be varied depending on the initial stack temperature. The lower the initial stack temperature, the higher the concentration of the methanol solution required. At an initial stack temperature of -40~C, a solution having 40 wt% methanol is preferred to avoid freezing of the solution. If the initial stack temperature at start-up is above the freezing point of water, the methanol concentration in the solution can be in a range of 0.5 to 25 wt%, with a more preferred concentration range being from 3 to 10 wt% of methanol.  The methanol solution and air feed rates can also be varied to control the rate at which heat is generated in the stack.
