Patent number: 10533387Abstract: A method for modifying a return fluid in a wellbore comprising disposing at least one valve along a drill pipe section of a drill string in the wellbore. At least one parameter of interest is determined at at least one location along the wellbore. At least one valve is controllably actuated to discharge at least a portion of at least one fluid from inside the drill string to an annulus in the wellbore to modify a local property of the return fluid in the annulus based at least in part on the measured parameter of interest.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2017Date of Patent: January 14, 2020Assignee: Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.Inventors: Ronald Johannes Dirksen, Daniel David Gleitman, William W. Shumway

Patent number: 10378318Abstract: The subject matter of this specification can be embodied in, among other things, a wearable computer device positionable on a human body. The wearable computer device is configured to receive sensor information from a collection of sensors that includes a first sensor and a second sensor, the first sensor attached to the human wearable device and the second sensor connected to the human wearable device, the sensor information describing operational attributes of the oil and gas drilling or production operations that either implements a hydrocarbon recovery process or a hydrocarbon recovery machine at a time of obtaining the sensor information, identify baseline sensor information describing operational attributes during normal operation of either the hydrocarbon recovery process or the hydrocarbon recovery machine, compare the sensor information and the baseline sensor information, and provide a notification indicating an operational condition of the oil and gas drilling or production operation.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2014Date of Patent: August 13, 2019Assignee: Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.Inventors: Daniel David Gleitman, Saad Saeed, Kristy Bell, Florin Anghelescu, David Crawshay

Patent number: 9284836Abstract: A method and system for determining a property of a sample of fluid in a borehole. A fluid sample is collected in a downhole tool. While collecting, X-rays are transmitted proximate the fluid from an X-ray source in the tool and an X-ray flux that is a function of a property of the fluid is detected. The detected X-ray flux data is processed to determine the property of the fluid.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2013Date of Patent: March 15, 2016Assignee: Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.Inventors: Paul F. Rodney, Ronald L. Spross, Jerome Allen Truax, Daniel David Gleitman

Patent number: 7511823Abstract: An apparatus, system and method are provided for measuring state properties without requiring an internal or proximate power supply. The apparatus provides a sensing device that is responsive to fluctuations in a state property that are encountered within the test zone. Due to the fluctuations experienced by the sensing device, a sensing signal is generated and transmitted to an optical device, such as an interferometer. The sensing signal's affect on the optical device produces an interference pattern that may be detected remotely and correlated to the fluctuation experienced by the sensing device.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2004Date of Patent: March 31, 2009Assignee: Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.Inventors: Roger L. Schultz, Neal Gregory Skinner, Harry Davis Smith, Jr., Daniel David Gleitman

Patent number: 7066271Abstract: An improved system and method is disclosed for expanding a fluid permeable tubular downhole in an open hole completion. A high quality borehole is first drilled using a bottomhole assembly having a long gauge bit and a short bit-to-bend ratio. A fluid-permeable tubular is then inserted into an open-hole portion of the wellbore and preferably expanded in place. The expandable tubular may include an external filtering medium. Hydrocarbons may pass from the formation through the expanded fluid permeable tubular and into the borehole, to be recovered.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 2003Date of Patent: June 27, 2006Assignee: Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.Inventors: ChenKang David Chen, Daniel David Gleitman, M.
