20080236935 | DETERMINATION OF DOWNHOLE PRESSURE WHILE PUMPING - Tubewaves are used to transmit an indication of the depth at which a condition is detected in a well. In particular, the depth is calculated based on the difference in arrival time at the surface of a first tubewave which propagates directly upward in the borehole and a second tubewave which initially travels downward and is then reflected upward. The tubewaves may be generated by a canister designed to implode at a certain pressure. After being introduced into the flowline at an above ground inlet, the canister is carried downhole by gravity and the fluid being pumped. When the canister reaches a depth at which its pressure tolerance is exceeded, it implodes and generates the tubewaves. An analyzer at the surface detects the tubewaves with a hydrophone array and generates a pressure versus depth profile of the well, i.e., one data point for each implosion. Canisters may be acoustically tagged by controlling volume and orifice size in order to generate tubewaves having particular frequency and amplitude characteristics. Canisters may also be configured to produce multiple implosions, e.g., one implosion at each of a selection of different pressures. Canisters may also be equipped with triggering and arming mechanisms, and may generate tubewaves in response to conditions other than a particular pressure. | 10-02-2008 |

Equipment for facilitating detection of the condition can include a trigger operable in response to the condition; a generator operable to emit sound in the borehole and to create a detectable change in some characteristic of the emitted sound in response to the trigger; and at least one sensor operable to monitor the sound and detect the change, the detection being indicative that the predetermined condition has occurred. It is also possible to estimate a value of a property of a fluid-filled wellbore system. This can be accomplished by recording data including at least one of pressure and rate of flow at one or more locations in the wellbore system, and then estimating the value of the property by employing a model for predicting at least one of pressure and rate of flow dependent upon parameters detailing at least one of wellbore system geometry, viscoacoustic properties of the fluid and entrained solids contained in the wellbore system, locations of boundaries and entrained solids, and characteristics and locations of disturbances to pressure and flow in the wellbore system, in order to determine a best prediction of some attribute of the recorded data. | 10-02-2008 |

The current trust domain that is to be bound to the digital certificate is elected by a relying party at the time of reliance, based upon a specific certificate validation methodology selected by the relying party. | 08-20-2009 |
20100026501 | Electronic Swimmer Monitoring System - Electronic Tags are mounted on swimmers to reduce their risk of drowning by identifying when their heads are underwater for periods of time which may indicate a dangerous submersion situation, and for triggering corresponding alerts and alarms. In this method, each monitored person is equipped with a lightweight electronic Tag worn on the body that communicates with monitors that issue the alerts and alarms, including audible and visible distress signals. The monitors, in turn, communicate the alarms to receivers used by supervisory personnel, such as lifeguards or parents. The invention may be used in aquatic environments, such as public recreation facilities, pools, waterfronts, and water parks, as well as in more private settings, such as homes, apartment buildings or hotels. | 02-04-2010 |
20110148642 | Reliable Sensing of Nose and Mouth Immersion - Electronic Tags are mounted on swimmers to reduce their risk of drowning by identifying when their heads are underwater for periods of time which may indicate a dangerous submersion situation, and for triggering corresponding alerts and alarms. In this method, each monitored person is equipped with a lightweight electronic Tag worn on the head that communicates with monitors that issue the alerts and alarms, including audible and visible distress signals. The Tags comprise electrodes mounted on each side of a swimmer's head that close a circuit when said swimmer's nose or mouth is in the water. After a certain period of time, if the circuit is still closed, an alarm is sent to said monitors. The monitors, in turn, communicate the alarms to receivers used by supervisory personnel, such as lifeguards or parents. The invention may be used in aquatic environments, such as public recreation facilities, pools, waterfronts, and water parks, as well as in more private settings, such as homes, apartment buildings or hotels. | 06-23-2011 |
