Patent NO-20034764-D0 (NO)
Inventor: APPLEFORD DAVID ERIC
IPC: E21B43/017
Filed: 2003-10-24
Abstract: A method of controlling flows from plural hydrocarbon extraction wellhead trees (50, 52, 54, 56) in an extraction system including plural wellhead trees (50) connected by a pipeline network (60, 62, 88, 104) to a host facility (64) via a manifold system (130, 132) situated remotely from the host facility (64). Each wellhead tree (50) has a production outlet connected by a production conduit (88) to the manifold system (130, 132) and a test flow outlet (76) connected by a test conduit (104) to the manifold system (130, 132). Wellhead tree outlet valves are operable to divert the flow from one wellhead tree only to the manifold system (130, 132) from where it is routed via a test pipeline (62) to testing equipment at the host facility. Alternatively, one or more modules (132) of the manifold system (130, 132) may be replaced by one or more different modules each containing a multi-phase flow meter so that testing can take place at the manifold system. The method obviates the requirement for remotely operable valves to be installed in the manifold system for flow testing purposes.

Abstract: Molecular beam epitaxy can be employed to produce a semiconductor layer on a substrate. Etching of the substrate may be necessary to prepare it for the epitaxy process, and a protective layer may advantageously be provided over the semiconductor layer after formation thereof by the epitaxy process. Such a subsidiary process of etching or protective-layer formation is desirably carried out under a vacuum. Steps are taken to ensure that the substrate is maintained under vacuum during the epitaxy process and each such subsidiary process without any break in the vacuum between those processes, thereby reducing the danger of impurities entering the said semiconductor layer. For such etching a hydrogen plasma etching process is employed, thereby avoiding damage that could otherwise be caused to the substrate and to a vacuum pump.
