Patent CA-2861858-A1 (CA)
Title: Method of producing oil
Inventor: BERG STEFFEN
IPC: C09K8/03
Filed: 2012-12-19
Abstract: The present disclosure relates to enhanced oil recovery methods including the injection of solvent and polymer floods to increase hydrocarbon production from oil bearing underground rock formations. One method includes injecting a solvent slug into the underground formation for a first time period from a first well. The solvent slug solubilizes the oil and generates a mixture of mobilized oil and solvent. An aqueous polymer slug may then be injected into the underground formation for a second time from the first well. The polymer slug may have a viscosity greater than the solvent slug and thereby generates an interface between the solvent slug and the polymer slug. The solvent slug and the mobilized oil are then forced towards a second well using a buoyant hydrodynamic force generated by the aqueous polymer slug. Oil and/or gas may then be produced from the second well.

Title: Floating offshore platform and centralized open keel plate
Inventor: YANG CHAN KYU
IPC: B63B39/06
Filed: 2013-05-24
Abstract: The disclosure reduces vertical movement of a floating offshore platform (2) by including a centralized open keel plate (10) coupled to the hull (20) that allows water below and above the keel plate (10). As the floating platform (2) moves vertically, the keel plate (10) separates the water and causes drag on the platform. The water moving vertically with the plate also increases the dynamic mass. The drag results in less vertical movement of the offshore platform (2)without the need to extend legs of the platform to gain an equivalent reduction in vertical movement. The added dynamic mass increases the natural period of the vertical motion away from the wave excitation period to minimize the wave driven motion. The keel plate (10) generally is above or at the same level of the keel, and therefore would not reduce the clearance between the seabed and the keel of the hull (2) at the quayside.

Abstract: The invention relates to a kneader machine (10) for alimentary doughs comprising a container (20) provided with a tight lid (70) and a rotor (30) rotatably arranged in said container (20) about a vertical rotation axis (A), wherein said rotor (30) comprises a flat base consisting of a plurality of arms (32, 33) and a plurality of mixing paddles which extend from said arms (32, 33) in a vertical direction (V), and wherein the arms (32, 33) of the rotor (30) comprise bevelled surfaces (34) formed along their peripheries on the sides intended to face a rotation direction of rotation (R) of the rotor (30). The mixing paddles comprise first and second mixing paddles (35, 36) configured so as to generate between them a whirling motion of the particles of the solid ingredients on a plane (P) passing through the rotation axis (A) of the rotor (30) and perpendicular to its base. Thanks to these features it is possible to generate on planes that are mutually perpendicular whirling mixing movements, which promote the contact between the particles of the solid ingredients of an alimentary dough and the liquid ingredients necessary to its preparation that are injected into the container, thus allowing to maximize the hydration level of the solid ingredients and to minimize the preparation time of the dough.

Abstract: The present invention is a field-deployable system for separating methane and natural gas liquids (NGLs) from a raw gas stream comprising a compressor; a dehydrator; a refrigerator having one or more stages; and a separation subsystem adapted to separate the raw gas stream into three useable product streams: (1) a methane stream that is at least 70% methane, (2) an ethane-rich stream, and (3) a NGLs stream having a vapor pressure of no more than 17 bar (250 psi) at 38°C (100°F). The methane stream is sufficiently lean to be useable in existing natural gas engines without modification. The NGLs stream has a sufficiently low vapor pressure to be transportable in standard propane containers. The ethane-rich stream may be utilized within the system itself to power its own operations. The system can be utilized to reduce flaring from liquids-rich gas production sites, produce natural gas liquids for transport, and provide dry methane gas suitable for use in existing field generators.
