Title: Method, system and non-transitory computer-readable medium for forming a seismic image of a geological structure
Inventor: WANG MEIXIA
IPC: G01V1/28
Filed: 2015-04-28
Abstract: A method, system and non-transitory computer-readable medium for forming a seismic image of a geological structure are provided. After obtaining seismic wave data including a plurality of seismic wave traces at a first region of the geological structure, a predicted time dispersion error of an actual time dispersion error that results from a use of a finite difference approximation in calculating predicted seismic wave data at a second region of the geological structure as if a seismic wave propagates from the first region to the second region of the geological structure, is calculated. A corrected predicted seismic wave data at the second region of the geological structure is calculated by applying the finite difference approximation to the seismic wave data at the first region of the geological structure compensated with the predicted time dispersion error. A seismic image of the second region of the geological structure is generated using the corrected predicted seismic wave data, such that the actual time dispersion error is negated by the predicted time dispersion error.

Title: Fracture monitoring
Inventor: HILL DAVID JOHN
IPC: E21B47/12
Filed: 2016-05-30
Abstract: Abstract This application relates to methods and apparatus for monitoring hydraulic fracturing during oil/gas well formation. A fibre optic cable (102) deployed down a well bore (106), which may be the well bore in which fracturing is performed, is interrogated to provide a distributed acoustic sensor. Data is sampled from at least one longitudinal sensing portion of the fibre and processed to provide at least fracturing characteristic. The fracturing characteristic may comprise the characteristics of high frequency transients indicative of fracturing events (606). The intensity, frequency, duration and signal evolution of the transients may be monitored to provide the fracturing characteristic. Additionally or alternatively the fracturing characteristic may comprise the longer term acoustic noise generated by fracture fluid flow to the fracture sites. The intensity and frequency of the noise may be analysed to determine the fracturing characteristic. The method allows real-time control of the fracturing process.

Patent AU-2016211923-A1 (AU)
Title: Compact bail supported fill up and circulation tool
Inventor: HICKL MATTHEW J
IPC: E21B15/00
Filed: 2016-01-19
Abstract: The laterally rotating height of a fill up and circulating tool that is mounted on one of the bails supporting an elevator is made shorter with integration of design components. A power cylinder features a hollow piston which integrates the mud line connected to the fill up tool. The hollow piston forms an integral part of the mud line. The mud line has an exterior slot with a longitudinal and a spiral component into which a pin extends that is supported by the cylinder. As the mud line descends the fill up tool moves initially axially followed by rotational movement to align with a sting for connection thereto. Raising the mud line reverses the movement pattern. The fill up tool is cantilevered from the mud line for its sole support. Height savings allows tool use with bails of varying lengths without interference.
Patent AU-2016213420-A1 (AU)
Title: Air conditioning apparatus
Inventor: SUHARA RYOUTA
IPC: F25B1/00
Filed: 2016-01-21
Abstract: The problem of the present invention is to provide an air-conditioning device that performs a heating operation by causing an indoor heat exchanger to function as a radiator of a coolant, wherein, even when liquid accumulation occurs in a state of operation in a low circulation amount zone, the air saturation temperature can be correctly detected. In the air-conditioning device (10), even when a compressor (12) is operated at a low number of compressor rotations so as to produce the minimum heating performance and the coolant circulation amount decreases, liquid accumulation does not occur above the height-direction center of an indoor heat exchanger (32) or above a distributor body (81a). Therefore, a coolant temperature sensor (183) attached to the aforementioned region is able to detect the accurate saturation temperature. This eliminates any risk of a breakdown in subcooling control, obviates control of motorized valve-opening action only for eliminating liquid accumulation as in the prior art, and, as shall be apparent, obviates having to provide a pressure sensor.

Title: ESI-MS via an electrokinetically pumped interface
Inventor: DOVICHI NORMAN
IPC: H01J49/04
Filed: 2016-12-30
Abstract: An electrokinetically pumped sheath flow nanospray interface for capillary electrophoresis coupled to negative mode electrospray mass spectrometer is described. At this interface, application of an electric field generates electro-osmotic flow at the interior of a glass emitter having an orifice. Electroosmotic flow pumps liquid around the distal tip of the separation capillary, ensheathing analyte into the electrospray electrolyte. In negative ion mode, negative potential applied to an untreated emitter drives sheath flow away from the emitter orifice, decreasing the stability and efficiency of the spray. In contrast, when the interior of the electrospray emitter is grafted with aminoalkylsilanes, the amines have a positive charge, which reverses electroosmosis and generates stable sheath flow to the emitter orifice under negative potential. Limits of detection were about 150 to 900 attomoles injected. Negative mode operation was demonstrated by analyzing a metabolite extract from stage 1 Xenopus laevis embryos..
