Patent number: 8034042Abstract: A port closure system for use with a fluid container having fluid ports includes administrative and additive port closure assemblies. The administrative assembly receives a piercing pin and includes an administrative housing which seals closed one fluid port. A sleeve extends from an interior surface past a base surface in the administrative housing. The sleeve has an upper portion and a lower portion, of differing diameters. A cap assembly mates with the administrative housing, sealing the interior surface of the administrative housing. A removable cap provides access to the interior surface. The additive assembly receives a needle and includes a reseal housing which seals closed another fluid port. Another cap assembly mates with the reseal housing, sealing an interior face of the reseal housing. Another removable cap provides access to the interior face. A reseal element is mechanically retained between the reseal housing and cap assembly.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2009Date of Patent: October 11, 2011Assignee: Hospira, Inc.Inventors: John Domkowski, Richard E.

Patent number: 4062404Abstract: This invention relates to an improved in situ combustion method for the recovery of hydrocarbons from subterranean earth formations containing carbonaceous material. The method is practiced by penetrating the subterranean earth formation with a borehole projecting into the coal bed along a horizontal plane and extending along a plane disposed perpendicular to the plane of maximum permeability. The subterranean earth formation is also penetrated with a plurality of spaced-apart vertical boreholes disposed along a plane spaced from and generally parallel to that of the horizontal borehole. Fractures are then induced at each of the vertical boreholes which project from the vertical boreholes along the plane of maximum permeability and intersect the horizontal borehole. The combustion is initiated at the horizontal borehole and the products of combustion and fluids displaced from the earth formation by the combustion are removed from the subterranean earth formation via the vertical boreholes.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 1976Date of Patent: December 13, 1977Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the United States Energy Research and Development AdministrationInventors: Joseph Pasini, III, Lowell Z. Shuck, William K. Overbey, Jr.

Patent number: 3934649Abstract: A method for removing methane gas from underground coalbeds prior to mining the coal which comprises drilling at least one borehole from the surface into the coalbed. The borehole is started at a slant rather than directly vertically, and as it descends, a gradual curve is followed until a horizontal position is reached where the desired portion of the coalbed is intersected. Approaching the coalbed in this manner and fracturing the coalbed in the major natural fraction direction cause release of large amounts of the trapped methane gas.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 1974Date of Patent: January 27, 1976Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the United States Energy Research and Development AdministrationInventors: Joseph Pasini, III, William K. Overbey, Jr.

Patent number: 3933447Abstract: There is disclosed a method for the gasification of coal in situ which comprises drilling at least one well or borehole from the earth's surface so that the well or borehole enters the coalbed or seam horizontally and intersects the coalbed in a direction normal to its major natural fracture system, initiating burning of the coal with the introduction of a combustion-supporting gas such as air to convert the coal in situ to a heating gas of relatively high calorific value and recovering the gas. In a further embodiment the recovered gas may be used to drive one or more generators for the production of electricity.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 1974Date of Patent: January 20, 1976Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the United States Energy Research and Development AdministrationInventors: Joseph Pasini, III, William K. Overbey, Jr., Charles A. Komar
