  • Patent number: 11953706
    Abstract: Wavelength-selective films are visibly apparent under the selective wavelength. Wavelength-selective films typically reflect off axis the selected wavelength and therefore can provide high-contrast against a background when applied in a pattern on a substrate. However, it is difficult to apply unique patterned embedded images from film. Disclosed is a cost-effective method and construction of a patterned wavelength-selective image to a substrate. In the disclosed wavelength-selective image, wavelength-selective film particles are applied to an adhesive pattern to create the wavelength-selective image.

  • Publication number: 20230229981
    Abstract: A star rating management method for deployment and implementation of gas field development wells first establishes the expression for estimating the gas well initial production rate and the dimensionless production curve; then determines the annual production of the new well for every year during the evaluation period and determines the internal rate of return of the new gas well. If the internal rate of return fails to meet the requirement, the deployment location and construction technology of the new well are re-optimized. Corresponding stars rating are determined according to the internal rate of return of the gas wells. The new well is drilled according to the deployment location that can meet the economic benefit requirements. After the gas well is drilled, a more detailed fracturing design is carried out, and the internal rate of return of the gas well and the star rating of development benefit are redetermined.
