    Abstract: A sampling assembly has an inner expandable packer, and an outer layer formed by rings may be disposed about and/or may be positioned on the outer surface of the inner expandable packer member. Drains may be positioned between the rings and may be located under ports positioned between the rings. Flowlines may be connected to the drains, may be positioned in the rings and may extend through the rings. For each of the ports, a plate may be positioned between the port and the laterally adjacent port. The flowlines may be connected to a downstream component, such as a fluid analysis module, a fluid containment module and/or the like.

    Abstract: A simplified system and method for lining a borehole in the Earth's surface. The liner has a tubing sleeve disposed upon the interior liner wall surrounding and defining the liner's interior volume when the liner is installed within a borehole. This compact and relatively lightweight system simplifies the modes and methods of subsurface installation. Each of at least one tubing sleeve preferably contains and holds at least one slender sample tubes for transporting borehole sample water (or water pressure change data) from a liner sampling spacer to above the ground's surface. The method is a relatively inexpensive, and allows for the sealing of a borehole to define various different sampling intervals with an external spacer at each liner port, and to use tubing directly to the surface from each port, to perform various subsurface sampling and monitoring functions.

    Abstract: An example system for receiving gas expelled from a core sample of a formation may include a tubular element. A core chamber may be disposed within the first tubular element. A gas and drilling fluid separator may be in fluid communication with the core chamber. The tubular element may be an inner barrel assembly of a core sample assembly that is disposed within a borehole. A core sample may be contained within the inner barrel assembly and may be retrieved at the surface. Gas may be expelled from the core sample as it is retrieved, and the gas and drilling fluid separator may separate the expelled gas from suspension with a drilling fluid for analysis.

    Abstract: A pressure measurement cell for use in an infusion or injection system for the injection of a fluid, with a housing in which at least one filter unit, through which the fluid under pressure is conducted, and at least one pressure transducer for the detection of the pressure of the fluid flowing from the filter unit are located. Such a pressure measurement cell is pressure-stable, causes only a slight pressure decline in the hose system of the infusion or injection system, can be produced at low cost, and makes possible a simple installation and handling when the hose system is inserted into a hose pump.

    Abstract: A gas trap includes a sample enclosure, a bubbler enclosure, an agitator, and a brushless, DC motor. The sample enclosure has a liquid inlet, a gas sample outlet, and a sample enclosure wall with a sample enclosure wall portion and a shared wall portion. The bubbler enclosure has a bubbler air inlet, a bubbler air outlet, and a bubbler enclosure wall with a bubbler enclosure wall portion and the shared wall portion. The sample and bubbler enclosures are fluidly coupled through the shared wall portion so that sufficiently pressurized bubbler air entering through the bubbler air inlet maintains the drilling fluid in the sample enclosure at a level determined by the location of the bubbler air outlet when the liquid inlet and the bubbler air outlet are both submerged in the drilling fluid.
