Abstract:
A method including the steps of: providing a finite element grid described with respect to a lateral coordinate axis and a depth coordinate axis to model a multilayer sedimentary basin (510); coarsening the finite element grid with respect to the lateral coordinate axis to provide a coarsened finite element grid (520); performing a backstripping and forward simulation cycle using the coarsened finite element grid to provide geometry and porosity results for the model of the multilayer sedimentary basin (530); refining the finite element grid with respect to the lateral coordinate axis to provide a refined finite element grid (540); and performing backstripping and forward simulation cycle using the refined finite element grid and at least the porosity results to provide enhanced geometry and porosity results for the model of the multilayer sedimentary basin (550).
Abstract:
A method for local data visibility is disclosed. The method includes detecting data items in a local data repository located in a local environment. In response to the detecting, a computer processor of the local environment collects metadata describing the data items in the local data repository. The metadata includes a project identifier. The metadata is then transmitted, separate from the data items, to a data manager of a database, where the database is accessible by multiple local environments. Accordingly, the data manager determines, based on the project identifier, a synchronization status of the data items in the local data repository, where the synchronization status represents a relationship between the data items in the local data repository and exploration and production data in the database. The data manager further generates, according to a predetermined data management scheme, an alert based on the synchronization status.
Abstract:
A method for context transfer for data storage is disclosed. The method includes receiving, from an analysis environment, a request to load a data item for analysis, creating, based on the request, a task request including context information of the data item, transmitting the task request to a data manager environment, receiving, from the data manager environment, an approval of the task request based on the context information, and loading the data item in a master data store in response to the approval.
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods for determining downhole fluid parameters are disclosed herein. An example method includes disposing a downhole tool in a well. The downhole tool has a sensor including a heater and a temperature sensor. The example method further includes flowing a fluid in the well. The example method also includes determining a first velocity of the fluid at a first depth via the sensor and, based on the first velocity of the fluid, a first parameter of the well at the first depth is determined.
Abstract:
A stator and a method of manufacturing at least a portion of a progressive cavity motor or pump include disposing a cylindrical shell within a cylindrical housing, disposing a stator mold within the cylindrical shell, disposing an elastomeric material between the stator mold and the cylindrical shell, removing the stator mold from within the elastomeric material, thereby forming an elastomeric material layer having a stator profile within the cylindrical shell, and removing the cylindrical shell from within the cylindrical housing, thereby forming a cartridge having the elastomeric material layer disposed within the cylindrical shell.
