Abstract: A method of drilling an offshore underwater well comprising the steps of installing a riser conduit (5) so that it is substantially vertically supported at a production deck (1,25). The riser conduit (5) deviates progressively further from the vertical with increasing sea depth, so that its end can be anchored at the seabed (6) by a skid (7) either at an oblique angle so that drilling into the seabed can be carried out at the oblique angle, or horizontally, so that the riser conduit can extend some considerable distance across the seabed (6) before drilling is carried out.

Abstract: A surface scrubbing machine includes a body, wheels
for supporting the body and cylindrical scrub brushes mounted on
the body for cleaning an adjacent surface. There is a clean
water solution tank on the body for supplying a cleaning solution
to the surface to be cleaned. A recovery tank is positioned on

Abstract: A notetaking device comprises a base member having an image
support surface disposed for ready access for handwriting and viewing image
information thereon and for receiving a document having pre-existing image
information. A writing pad is disposed in a writing position on the image
support surface for receiving handwritten image information. An image
sensor bar is supported on the base member for movement in the length
dimension of the image support surface, adjacent to the writing pad
supported in said writing position. The image sensor bar has an elongated
dimension extending across at least a substantial portion of the width
dimension of the support surface. A plurality of image sensing devices are
disposed along the elongated dimension of said image sensor bar and are
directed to sense an image on the writing surface of the writing pad, width-section-by-width-section
(or line-by-line), as the image sensor bar moves
along the length dimension of the writing surface. The image sensing devices
provide image signals representative of each width section of the sensed
image. Processing electronics, including data storage memory, are operatively
coupled to the image sensing devices to receive the image signals and store
data representing the image signals in the data storage memory.

Title: Bushing for an electrical equipment
Inventor: MORLESIN ROBERTO
IPC: H01B17/30
Filed: 1998-10-06
Abstract: A bushing device being either a "bushing" comprising an external
standard interface cone on one side and a conical shape at the opposite side, or
a "bushing well" having a single hollow conical shape comprising an internal
standard interface cone. The bushing device is to be hermetically mounted in a
hole of an electrical equipment, insulated with oil fluid or gas, and is foreseen of
a metallic fixing flange having a diameter larger than the diameter of this hole.
The bushing device is adapted to interconnect an electrical distribution cable
external to the equipment with a device internal to the equipment. The equipment
is for instance a transformer, a switchgear, a capacitor or a motor. The bushing
device is made of an elastomeric material containing an anti-migratory additive,
whilst the metallic fixing flange is preferably made of stainless steel adapted to be
welded to the wall of the equipment. 
     The production phase of the elastomeric material is easy and fast, and
the storage period for manufacturing after the mixing of the constituent products
is relatively long. The performances of elastomeric material are similar to these of
known epoxy bushing devices as to what concerns the cost of the material,
isolation, and temperature change behavior. The anti-migratory additive is
added to the elastomeric material for improving its permeability in order to make
it compatible with the insulating medium. Preferably, the elastomeric material is a
synthetic terpolymer of ethylene, propylene and diene (EPDM) improved with a
synthetic copolymer of isobulylene and isoprene as anti-migratory additive.

Abstract: A wiring substrate is disclosed, which has optimal characteristics for, for example, an active matrix type liquid crystal display device with a thin film transistor. Wiring formed of an Al-Nd-Ti alloy thin film is formed on a glass substrate, and if necessary, a semiconductor element which is electrically connected to the wiring is formed. In this case, the specific resistance of the Al-Nd-Ti alloy thin film is about 8 νΦ cm if the Nd concentration is 0.75 at % and the Ti concentration is 0.5 at %. Further, even if the resultant substrate is heated at 240 - 270 °C after the formation of the wiring, occurrence of a hillock and a pinhole is substantially completely suppressed.

Filed: 1998-10-01
Abstract: A multi-hulled vessel of variable width is disclosed, in which two floats (1, 2) are connected with one another by means of a variable connection device (4). By means of the connection device, the distance between the floats can be varied. At the maximum distance between them, the vessel features optimum seaworthiness, while at the minimum distance between them it has a small berthing space requirement. The connection device (4) supports the central unit (3), which encompasses a useful area unit (5). The floats (1, 2) do not have a continuous deck height over their entire length, but feature recesses (120, 220). These recesses (120, 220) are pushed beneath the useful area unit (5) when the floats are adjusted to their minimum interval spacing.

Abstract: Cette invention a trait, d'une manière générale, à une technique d'extraction de soufre d'un courant d'acrylate et, plus particulièrement, à un procédé de récupération ainsi qu'à une méthode de réutilisation d'un catalyseur acide principalement utilisé dans la réaction d'esters acryliques. Durant la réaction de l'acide acrylique et d'un alcool en présence d'un catalyseur acide, l'acrylate et l'eau sont retirés des sous-produits de la réaction (extrémités lourdes et oligomères). Ces composants à extrémité lourdes de sous-produits, dont le catalyseur acide entrant dans le processus réactionnel, sont dirigés sur un évaporateur. On fait ensuite entrer en contact le flux résiduel résultant avec de l'eau dans un extracteur et, à la suite de cette mise en contact avec l'eau, il se produit une séparation des phases entre le catalyseur acide/mélange à base d'eau et d'autres substances organiques. Les substances organiques sont éliminées tandis que le catalyseur acide/mélange à base d'eau est recyclé dans le processus réactionnel. On utilise, dans le cadre de cette invention, un évaporateur ainsi qu'un extracteur pour contribuer à la séparation du catalyseur acide du flux de déchets sous-produits de réaction. L'enlèvement d'acide se solde par l'émission de moins de composants organo-soufrés du processus réactionnel, rendant celui-ci plus respectueux de l'environnement.
