| 20100193190 | In-Situ Zonal Isolation for Sand Controlled Wells - This invention relates to a process for isolating one or more segments of a gravel packed well from other segments to treat the isolated segments and easily re-establish flow from the other segments after the treatment. The treatment includes techniques for enhancing or permanently blocking production from the isolated segment. The process includes the installation of a removable plug and a permeability poison that forms a fluid seal to prevent longitudinal fluid flow along the annular production space outside the tubular production pipe. With wireline or other low-cost wellbore workover systems, access is re-engaged with the secluded formation including removal of plugs and fluid seals within the tubular production pipe. The inventive process allows enhanced recovery of fluids by focusing treatments on problem areas without harming productive segments of the well. | 08-05-2010 |

| 20100181961 | ADAPTIVE POWER CONTROL FOR WIRELESS CHARGING - Exemplary embodiments are directed to wireless power transfer. A transmitter generates an electromagnetic field at a resonant frequency with a transmit antenna to create a coupling-mode region within a near field of the transmit antenna. The transmitter defines a beginning of a recurring period by on-off keying the electromagnetic field during a synchronization portion of the recurring period. During a power transmission portion of the recurring period, the transmitter couples portions of the electromagnetic field to different receive antennas of various receiver devices within the coupling-mode region. The transmitter also determines a power allocation within the recurring period for the various receiver devices disposed within the coupling-mode region and adjusts a power level of the near field radiation responsive to power requirements received from the receiver devices. | 07-22-2010 |
