  • Patent number: 10628769
    Abstract: A method and a system for cross-domain enterprise collaborative decision support within an enterprise are provided. The method includes receiving a set of information from an asset component through an embedded cell for analytics (ECA) and analyzing the set of information in real-time using a generative algorithm in a traveling intelligent cell (TIC), the TIC including at least one of a generic equipment and process data set, a specific equipment and process data set, and a dynamic deployment data set. The method also includes measuring asset component performance using the set of information and a key performance indictor (KPI) engine, comparing end results of the measured asset component performance to respective quality specification data using a data mining engine, determining a probability that a process parameter affected the measured asset component performance, and presenting a visualization of a correlated analysis to one or more subscribed users.

  • Patent number: 10579431
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for distributed management of computing resources may include (i) performing, by a computing device, an initial configuration of one or more computing resources connected to a network, (ii) detecting a request for a computing resource from a client daemon, (iii) based on the request, initializing a computing environment on the computing resource, (iv) maintaining an active state of the computing resource for a usage session by a client device, (v) detecting, from the client daemon, a notification of completion of the usage session, and (vi) in response to the notification of completion, reverting the computing resource to an initial state. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 10268978
    Abstract: A method and a system for organizing management information within an enterprise are provided. The method includes storing an enterprise bill of process (eBOP) comprising a plurality of enterprise process events and at least one respective threshold for each enterprise process event in an information engine and receiving enterprise process data relating to the plurality of enterprise process events from an information engine. The enterprise process data includes historical data relating to the enterprise process events, real-time current information relating to the enterprise process events, predicted data based on the historical data, the current data and measured or derived parameters associated with the at least some of the plurality of enterprise process events, and algorithmic models of at least one of the enterprise process events including parameters, variables, and measurements.

  • Patent number: 9759040
    Abstract: A system for fracturing a hydrocarbon bearing formation includes a valve including a tubular housing having a bore therethrough and one or more flow ports formed through a wall thereof. One or more locator tags are embedded in the housing, and a sleeve is disposed in the housing and movable relative thereto between an open and a closed position. The system also includes a shifting tool comprising a shifter movable between an extended position and a retracted position and operable to engage the valve sleeve. The shifting tool includes a lock that keeps the shifter extended in the locked position and allows the shifter to retract in the unlocked position. The shifting tool also includes an antenna for detecting the locator tags, and an electronics package in communication with the antenna and the actuator for operating the actuator in response to detection of the locator tags.

  • Publication number: 20160189074
    Abstract: A method and a system for gathering intelligence and disseminating information based on the intelligence in collaboration with subscribed entities within an enterprise are provided. The method includes executing a decision-making and problem-solving process using an enterprise process engine, managing the decision-making and problem-solving process using a cross-domain tasking manager configured to provide a set of formal decision making process flows, and periodically populating one or more dashboards provided by a situation room. The situation room is configured to receive current information relating to an operation of the enterprise, transmit news alerts based on the received current information to subscribed users, and display at least one of a directory of users currently online and a directory of users identified as experts in predetermined areas of the enterprise.
