Oilfield electricity and heat generation systems and methods are provided herein. In an embodiment, an oilfield electricity and heat generation system includes a solid oxide fuel cell and a heat exchanger in thermal communication with the solid oxide fuel cell. The fuel cell includes an anode and a cathode that are electrically separated by a solid oxide membrane. The solid oxide fuel cell is adapted to generate electricity and heat from a hydrocarbon fuel source. The heat exchanger is adapted to repurpose thermal energy from the solid oxide fuel cell to heat a reservoir fluid provided from an oilfield well.

Self-selecting switch devices, perforating gun systems including the devices, and methods of using the gun systems are provided herein. A self-selecting switch device includes a microcontroller, a logic circuit, and a first switch. The microcontroller is configured for direct operative connection to a shooting panel and to other self-selecting switch devices, wherein the microcontroller is programmed to detect a presence of other self-selecting switch devices that are operatively connected thereto. The first switch is operative to electrically connect a shooting panel to a detonator. The first switch is under operational control of the microcontroller. The logic circuit is in electrical communication with the microcontroller and the first switch. The logic circuit is configured to selectively direct electrical current to the microcontroller or to the first switch.

A chemical dispensing system for delivering a chemical dose into a water resource is provided herein. The system includes a dispensing housing, a support feature, and an electrical circuit. The dispensing housing includes at least one compartment that is adapted to retain a chemical dose. The compartment is substantially sealable from an ambient environment that is outside of the compartment. The compartment is independently openable and closable to directly expose the compartment to the ambient environment and enable release of contents retained therein in the open position and to substantially prevent release of the contents retained therein in the closed position. The support feature facilitates suspension of the dispensing housing above a surface of the water resource. Opening of the compartment is controllable through the electrical circuit.

Systems and methods for analyzing pond water health are provided herein. A system for analyzing pond water health includes one or more of an oxidation-reduction potential sensor, a dissolved oxygen sensor, or an H2S gas sensor. The system further includes a housing containing a control module, wherein the control module is in informational communication with the sensor(s). The system is positionable over a surface of a pond, proximal to the surface, or adapted to float on the surface. A method for analyzing pond water health of water pond includes positioning the system over or on a surface of the pond, obtaining data from the sensor(s) using the control module, and generating an alert using data from the control module based on a determination that pond health is in decline.
