Abstract: A system and method for providing emergency alarm communications in an fire panel network having a ring topology. The fire panels of the network each include an emergency interface between a panel processor and a panel transceiver. The emergency interface includes a communication link that is different from a normal TCP/IP communication link of the associated panel. The emergency interface comprises a separate communication path from the normal communication link. When normal TCP/IP communications are interrupted, the emergency interface is operable to transmit alarm signals to an adjacent panel in the network. The alarm signals may then be transmitted between subsequently connected panels and a workstation or central monitoring station via the normal TCP/IP mode. The workstation and/or central monitoring station can recognize the alarm signals as being generated by the originating panel. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

The method can include sending the hydrocarbon stream to the caustic scrubber to recover an olefin-containing hydrocarbon stream that is essentially free of acid gases.

Abstract: According to the invention, in order to initialize the use of a multipoint geostatistical technique (MPS), the method takes information, which was collected in wells drilled in the area of the subsoil to be modeled, into account. Particularly, the method takes inter-well connectivity data into account, which indicate one or more groups of cells of a reservoir grid that are located along a plurality of wells and between which hydrodynamic communications have been observed. For each of said groups, compatible thumbnail images are searched for in a training image used in the MPS technique. Said thumbnail images have, in the training image, facies that enable the flows between the cells of the group. The thumbnail images are applied onto the reservoir grid in order to initialize MPS simulation while ensuring that the inter-well connectivity constraints will be respected.
