| 20080306892 | MULTIPHASE FLOW METER FOR ELECTRICAL SUBMERSIBLE PUMPS USING ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS - A multiphase flow meter used in conjunction with an electrical submersible pump system in a well bore includes sensors to determine and transmit well bore pressure measurements, including tubing and down hole pressure measurements. The multiphase flow meter also includes at least one artificial neural network device to be used for outputting flow characteristics of the well bore. The artificial neural network device is trained to output tubing and downhole flow characteristics responsive to multiphase-flow pressure gradient calculations and pump and reservoir models, combined with standard down-hole pressure, tubing surface pressure readings, and the frequency applied to the electrical submersible pump motor. | 12-11-2008 |
| 20090044938 | SMART MOTOR CONTROLLER FOR AN ELECTRICAL SUBMERSIBLE PUMP - A motor controller for an electrical submersible pump production system is coupled to a real-time software model using known correlations and algorithms to model the performance of the production system, including the production equipment and the well, and executes separately from any modeling used to compute operating parameters from downhole measurements for use by the motor controller. The real-time software model receives operating parameter measurements from a data acquisition subsystem and compares the measurements with projected operating parameter values according to the model. Differences between measured and projected values are analyzed to identify operating problems or non-optimal operating conditions, with automatic corrections and/or notifications being triggered. | 02-19-2009 |

| 20090324359 | PLASTIC ANCHOR FOR DRYWALL, PLASTER, BRICK AND CONCRETE - An anchoring device for insertion in a hole provided in a structure such as a wall (hollow or solid) comprises proximal and distal sections. The proximal section includes a head defining an aperture for receiving a fastener, and the distal section includes a pair of expandable wings displaceable between collapsed and expanded positions. Each wing is biased towards its expanded position such that the wings can engage the structural material delimiting the hole or a distal surface of the structure. The distal section comprises, proximally of the wings, a variable-length flexible portion for allowing the wings to engage the distal surface of the structure for various structure thicknesses. The distal section comprises, distally of the wings, a tip section adapted to spread outwardly when engaged by the fastener. The proximal section comprises a pair of legs each having a toothed rack for engaging the structural material. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20100303574 | ANCHOR FOR HOLLOW WALLS - An anchor for mounting to a hollow wall made of friable material comprises a proximal flanged end adapted to be engaged by a rotatable tool to rotate the anchor about a longitudinal axis thereof and to cause is to gradually engage the wall. The anchor also includes a distal end adapted to cut through the wall as the anchor is rotated, and a shank extending between the proximal and distal ends. The shank includes at least one expandable leg that is in a collapsed position thereof when the anchor is rotated to mount it to the wall and that is located distally beyond a non visible surface of the wall once the anchor has been mounted to the wall and is in a first position thereof. The wall anchor includes an outer thread that securely engages the wall. A threaded fastener, e.g. a screw, is adapted to be introduced in the anchor and to threadably engage the same distally of the leg such that sufficient rotation of the threaded fastener retracts the distal end towards the proximal end thereby causing the leg to displace to a laterally expanded position thereof and to engage the non visible surface of the wall. | 12-02-2010 |
