20090071073	Method for removing mercury from natural gas - A method and apparatus for separating mercury and other undesired constituents from a natural gas stream includes passing the raw gas stream sequentially through a first separator, an amine treatment unit, a cooler, a second separator, a dehydrator, a cooler and a third separator. The first separator receives the natural gas stream and separates hydrocarbon and water condensates from the stream; the amine treatment unit removes acid gases; the cooler reduces the temperature of the gas stream to condense additional hydrocarbons and water that are removed by the second separator; and the dehydrator removes water vapor. Next, the temperature of the stream is reduced by the second cooler to condense the mercury and any remaining hydrocarbon vapors. The third separator includes a vessel having a gas inlet and outlet for discharging processed gas, a deflector disposed proximate the inlet for deflecting mercury and other condensates in the gas stream and a mercury trap disposed at the bottom of the vessel to collect the mercury.	03-19-2009

20130220008	METHOD FOR TRANSIENT TESTING OF OIL WELLS COMPLETED WITH INFLOW CONTROL DEVICES - Disclosed is a method for transient testing of an oil well to determine the individual, distinct skin factor components of an apparent skin factor, which includes opening the well to a first predefined choke setting to allow the reservoir fluid to flow through the well for a first predefined period of time, and measuring a production rate of the reservoir fluid through the well, when the first predefined period of time expires. The method further includes performing a shut-in of the well for a first predefined build-up period, and repeating, when the first predefined build-up period expires, the steps of the flowing, the measuring, and the performing for at least two additional choke settings. The distinct skin factor components of the apparent skin factor are determined using a graphical relationship between the determined apparent skin factors and the measured production rates.	08-29-2013

20140358443	System For Computing The Radius Of Investigation In A Radial, Composite Reservoir System - A system for calculating the radius of investigation of a radial, composite reservoir, comprises a processor; a memory and, preferably, a clock electronically coupled to the processor; a display electronically coupled to said processor; and an electronic input coupled to said processor. The processor is programmed to calculate the radius of investigation, at any given time, in the reservoir based upon a plurality of user inputs including the number of concentric regions n into which the reservoir is to be divided, a starting time or elapsed time, and data relating to the reservoir rock, fluids, and geometries of each of the n regions. The processor computes the radius of investigation using at least one of Equations (1), (2) and (6) through (12) set forth in the specification, if using the System of U.S. Oilfield Units, or using an equivalent equation if using other units.	12-04-2014

20140036976	COMMON MODE SIGNAL REDUCTION IN POWERLINE COMMUNICATION DEVICES - An active common mode current limiting mechanism limits common mode currents in a powerline communication device. A powerline coupler determines a common mode signal component of an output signal of the powerline communication device. The powerline coupler provides voltage estimates of the common mode signal component to a signal processing unit. The signal processing unit generates samples of the voltage estimates of the common mode signal component. The signal processing unit adjusts transmit voltage levels of the powerline communication device based on the samples of the voltage estimates of the common mode signal component to limit the common mode signal component of the output signal.	02-06-2014
