Patent number: 10841777Abstract: A system and method for managing the qualifications of emergency management personnel through the use of at least partially automated qualification management devices or electronic Position Task Books (ePTBs) is presented herein. The system includes a network of participating organizations comprising governmental agencies, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), academic institutions, and the private sector. The qualification management devices or ePTBs are used to establish the suitability of the personnel or individual participants in the performance of emergency management duties in the areas of emergency preparedness, planning, response, recovery, etc. More specifically, the present invention is directed to a system and/or method for the management (including the issuance, execution, and review) of qualification management devices or ePTBs within a self-managed network of participating organizations using internet and mobile technology to deliver ePTBs.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2019Date of Patent: November 17, 2020Inventor: Robert Steven Allen

Patent number: 8196649Abstract: A single or multi-bowl wellhead may be positioned in a diverter housing over the wellbore. Protrusions on the wellhead may be installed after the diverter housing is removed. The wellhead accommodates the direct connection of hydraulic lines to a hanger seated therein. An overshot running tool protects the wellhead during placement and certain operations.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2008Date of Patent: June 12, 2012Assignee: T-3 Property Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Robert Steven Allen, David Earl Cain, Bashir M.

Patent number: 8091648Abstract: A system and method are provided for direct connecting downhole control hydraulics through an oil field hanger, where the hanger is coupled to a wellhead, to hydraulic lines extending outside the wellhead. Further, the direct connection allows hydraulic system integrity with reduced contamination and leakage. Hydraulic tool ports, formed on the hanger, are coupled with hydraulic lines extending downward to a hydraulic tool. Side ports, formed in the hanger, are fluidicly coupled to the hydraulic tool ports. Hydraulic lines extending outside the wellhead are directly coupled with the side ports by accessing the side ports through access openings in the wellhead when the ports are aligned with the access openings. The system can still maintain pressure within internal spaces of the wellhead after the connection by sealing the access openings with flanges, where the hydraulic lines extend through openings in the flanges that are also sealed around the lines.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2010Date of Patent: January 10, 2012Assignee: T-3 Property Holdings, Inc.Inventor: Robert Steven Allen
