Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090211766System and method for capping abandoned wells - The invention describes a system for capping an abandoned well having production casing and surface casing. The system enables the effective sealing of the production casing volume from the surface casing volume such that any gases leaking from either volume can be independently released from independent valves. The system is particularly effective in improving the safety of re-entering an abandoned well.08-27-2009

20090272527Method and Apparatus for Perforating a Casing and Producing Hydrocarbons - A perforating gun and one or more volume-receiving surge canisters can be actuated at a time delay after perforation for creating a dynamic underbalance condition to aid in directing debris out of the perforations and fractures and into the wellbore. A timer and triggering device actuate one or more canisters in parallel or series after a pre-determined time delay or delays which can be related to wellbore conditions following perforation. Use of propellant-type perforating gun further benefits from favorable propellant burn conditions for forming perforations and followed thereafter by a perforation-cleaning underbalance pressure conditions characterized by one or more of an increased rate of change depression of the pressure in the adjacent annulus, a greater magnitude of pressure depression and a longer duration of underbalance.11-05-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110130146System and method of improving E911 services - An embodiment of the present invention relates to a network management method for improving E911 services. The network management method including determining a location of at least one user in a communications network, creating a coverage map for the communications network based on the determined location of the at least one user in the communications network, and providing the coverage map to an emergency services database. Additionally, the coverage map includes information depicting at least one user in the communications network.06-02-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090323530Dynamic load balancing - A method, program, system and apparatus perform dynamic load balancing of coverage areas in a wireless communication network. The dynamic load balancing is performed by evaluating cell congestion based on location information of subscribers in the wireless communication network, collecting network parameters related to the wireless communication network and altering network parameters based on the evaluated cell congestion. After the network parameter is altered, the coverage areas are narrowed. Improvements in cell congestion and quality of server are then determined based on the narrowing of the coverage areas. Altering of the plurality of network parameters and evaluating of the cell congestion are performed continuously until a target quality of service is achieved.12-31-2009
