  • Patent number: 10767433
    Abstract: A controls module for use with a subsea landing string, a blowout preventer (BOP) stack and a lower marine riser package (LMRP) is disclosed. The controls module can be integrated into the BOP stack or the LMRP or between the BOP stack and the LMRP. The controls module includes an input line that is coupled to control the subsea landing string through the BOP or the LMRP. The input line can be a hydraulic line, an electrical line, or a combination.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20120158337
    Abstract: A technique facilitates substantially improved service quality and data quality with respect to measurement and analysis of reservoir fluid samples. The technique integrates a variety of components which simplify the actions involved in measurement and analysis of the reservoir fluid samples. As a result, the reservoir fluid analysis process is more reliable and repeatable during many or all phases of the procedure from job initiation to output of the data as a final report.

  • Publication number: 20110185809
    Abstract: A flash system and method is disclosed to control the rate of flashing a reservoir fluid sample from reservoir conditions to a given pressure and temperature in order to produce a liquid and a gas phase of the sample. The flash system comprises a flash apparatus including a separating chamber, a metering valve positioned at an inlet of the separating chamber, and a gas flow meter positioned at an outlet of the separating chamber. A pump is provided to displace the sample from a sample chamber to the flash apparatus, wherein the pump speed and the discharge rate of the metering valve can be automatically controlled. The flash system may be used in a laboratory environment and at the site of an oilfield reservoir. The present disclosure provides a universal flash system and method that can limit operator actions to a minimum of simple operations to ensure the repeatability of the process independent of the operator's skill.
