Patent number: 11841353Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods for finding and sampling hydrocarbons from seeps in water or from artificial sources of water. The present invention related to systems and methods for in situ analyzing fluid samples in a body of water. The systems and methods can be used to find hydrocarbons and associated non-hydrocarbons from seeps in water. Such seeps may come from natural sources in deep water, possibly as deep as 3000 m or even more.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2020Date of Patent: December 12, 2023Assignee: Fugro N.V.Inventors: Shiva Prakash Arjoonsingh, Leslie Owuraku Baksmaty, James Charles Doherty, Eric Carroll Lissard, Benjamin King, Dickie Martin, Gary Martin Sharman, Mark Stevens

Patent number: 11668821Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to a method of correcting sensor position. The method comprises transmitting one or more first pulses of a first frequency range towards a first portion of a seabed and one or more second pulses of a second frequency range towards a second portion of the seabed, and receiving a first set and second set of backscattered data. The method further includes processing the first and second set of backscattered data to form a first and second set of image data and comparing the first set and second set of image data. The method further includes creating one or more error vectors between the first set and second set of image data, and updating the first set of backscattered data based on the one or more error vectors to produce an updated set of image data.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2020Date of Patent: June 6, 2023Assignee: Fugro N.V.Inventors: Carl James Sonnier, Eric Carroll Lissard

Patent number: 6812772Abstract: The integrated gate dual transistor (IGDT) has two controllable gates (G1, G2), a first gate (G1) being provided on the cathode side and being driven via a low-inductance first gate terminal with a first gate current, and a second gate (G2) being provided on the anode side and being driven via a low-inductance second gate terminal with a second gate current. In the switch-off operation of the IGDT, the rate of rise of the voltage across the IGDT is limited via the two gates. Limiting the rate of rise of the voltage across the IGDT prevents voltages from building up at different speeds in a series circuit of IGDTs, and thus unequal loads from overheating and destroying the individual IGDTs.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2002Date of Patent: November 2, 2004Assignee: ABB Schweiz AGInventors: Oscar Apeldoorn, Eric Carroll, Peter Streit, André Weber

Publication number: 20030062535Abstract: A turn-off high power semiconductor device with the inner pnpn-layer structure of a Gate-Commutated Thyristor and a first gate on the cathode side has an additional second gate on the anode side, said second gate contacting the n-doped base layer and having a second gate contact. A second gate lead which is of rotationally symmetrical design and is disposed concentrically with respect to the anode contact is in contact with said second gate contact. Said second gate lead is brought out of the component and electrically insulated from the anode contact.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2002Publication date: April 3, 2003Inventors: Eric Carroll, Oscar Apeldoorn, Peter Streit, Andre Weber
