  • Patent number: 11725850
    Abstract: A multivessel system is provided for installing a production train in an ultra-deep borehole into the Earth's lithosphere. The system includes a plurality of gate valves and a plurality of pressure vessels, including a first pressure vessel having a first vessel elevator configured to engage and hold a production train section as the first vessel elevator moves in the first pressure vessel along a portion of a length of a train channel, a second pressure vessel having a second vessel elevator configured to engage and hold the production train section as the second vessel elevator moves in the second pressure vessel along another portion of the length of the train channel, and a third pressure vessel, with all three pressure vessels being configured to be water cooled. The system includes a train clamp configured to engage and hold the production train in the borehole.

  • Patent number: 11566819
    Abstract: A multivessel system is provided for drilling an ultra-deep borehole into the Earth's lithosphere. The system includes a plurality of gate valves, a first pressure vessel configured with a first vessel elevator that engages and holds a train section as the first vessel elevator moves in the first pressure vessel along a portion of a length of a drill train channel; a second pressure vessel configured with a second vessel elevator that engages and holds the train section as the second vessel elevator moves in the second pressure vessel along another portion of the length of the drill train channel; a third pressure vessel configured with a smooth cylinder bore and a burn gas ejection piston configured to hold and connect the train section to the drill train; an input-output separator configured to segregate an exhaust waste gas up-flowing from the borehole from a gas being supplied into the borehole; and a drill train clamp configured to engage and hold a drill train in a borehole.
