    Abstract: Systems and methods presented herein provide for a screw conveyor adsorption moving bed that separates carbon dioxide from a gas mixture. Adsorbent particles are transported between an adsorption section of the reactor, which can be an outer column, and a desorption section, which can be an inner column. The particle transport is facilitated by the screw conveyor located inside the inner column. The screw conveyor is specially designed to have a hollow screw, shaped as a spiral surface, attached to a central shaft. The screw surface is also equipped with plurality of holes and a flexible edge attachment to seal against the cylindrical surface. The hollow shape allows the gas to flow from the inlet of the shaft to the particles through the holes on the screw, thus creating uniform gas distribution.

    Abstract: Methods (and related apparatus) include obtaining data regarding a measured property. The measured property includes an amount of each of predetermined hydrocarbons in a gas sample extracted from drilling fluid exiting a wellbore having a hydrocarbon resource. An unknown characteristic of an investigated fluid property of the hydrocarbon resource is predicted utilizing the obtained input data and one or more predetermined models each built via statistical classification and regression analysis of a preexisting database containing records. Each record includes known characteristics of fluid properties of a different one of known reservoir fluids. The fluid properties include the investigated fluid property and the measured property. The investigated fluid property includes a fluid type of the hydrocarbon resource, an amount of at least one additional hydrocarbon, gas-oil ratio, or stock tank oil density.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying a likelihood of problematic reservoir fluid containing asphaltene and/or an asphaltene onset pressure (AOP) using downhole fluid analysis data are provided. A method may include retrieving downhole fluid analysis data corresponding to a reservoir fluid that was obtained by a downhole acquisition tool positioned in a wellbore. The method may also include using a statistical model trained using historical downhole fluid analysis data and laboratory measurements to identify, based on the downhole fluid analysis data corresponding to the reservoir fluid, a likelihood of whether the reservoir fluid contains asphaltenes or an asphaltene onset pressure (AOP) of the reservoir fluid.
