Abstract: Packer setting device, comprising a tubular (10) with a plug housing (14), said plug housing having an internal, through running boring (12) with an internal wall (12a), a breakable plug (16) seated in a load ring (22) axially movable within the boring (12) between a first position in where the plug (16) is with a distance to a breaking pin (18) and a second position in where the plug (16) is forced against the breaking pin (18), said load ring (22) is resting on a shear ring (20) with an annular shear lip (20a) to prevent axial movement in the first position until the shear lip (20a) is subjected to a force higher than a predetermined force, wherein the annular shear lip (20a) of the shear ring (20) extend radially inward in the boring (12), and the breaking pin (18) is resting on the shear ring (20), and said breaking pin (18) is accommodated in a pocket (28) on an outside of the load ring (22).

Abstract: A method for completion of an oil or gas well with production tubing (14), and a well tool device (1) comprising an first pipe part (20) and a second pipe part (22) each having a first end (20a, 22a), and a second end (20b, 22b) with a through channel (30), said well tool device (1) having a groove (24) provided in an interface in the through channel (30) between the first pipe part (20) and the second pipe part (22), wherein said groove (24) is accommodating a breakable obturator seat (10) made of brittle and tempered glass.

Abstract: A system and method for evaluating the thermal bond between a heat-producing device and a heat-absorbing apparatus. The heat-producing device may be a CPU, such as an INTEL PENTIUM microprocessor, and the heat-absorbing apparatus may be a heat sink. The two may be joined with a heat-conducting substance such as thermal grease or adhesive. In one exemplary embodiment, the heat-producing device is operated at a first power level, a first temperature measurement is then taken, the device is operated at a second power level, and then a second temperature measurement is then taken. The thermal resistance is then calculated, which may involve subtracting the second temperature from the first, and may involve dividing by the power level. The first power level may be full power, and the second power level may be near zero.

Abstract: A permeable mass of remediable materials is subjected to biotic or abiotic treatment in a refillable containment in order to change the physical and/or chemical composition of the mass and/or contaminants within it by manipulating the biotic and abiotic in the subsurface environment. It is an adaptation of the SBS Close Lance system for decontamination of polluted soil. Such system when fitted to a refillable containment is used to compost and decontaminate remediable materials by promoting and exploiting biotic and abiotic activity. Ex-situ treatment of remediable materials including soils, refuse, wastes, drilling muds and minerals are possible as is composting of waste prior to alternate use by recycling.
