Abstract: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are destroyed by oxidation in supercritical conditions. PFAS in water can be concentrated and prepared for destruction in a pretreatment phase. Following annihilation of the PFAS in supercritical conditions to levels below 5 parts per trillion (ppt), the water effluent can be used to recover heat, returned to sub-critical conditions, and then released back into the environment.

Abstract: Mobile management method, system and client. Method includes receiving a DNS query for a host name from an application on client; retrieving reputation data associated with host name from a local cache on client; and determining a policy based on host name and the reputation data. Based on determined policy for the host name, blocking attempted network flows to a host corresponding to host name to produce blocked attempted network flows. Method also includes sending attempted network flow metadata related to the blocked attempted network flows to a collector on client; transmitting the attempted network flow metadata from the collector to a VPN server pool via a VPN tunnel; and producing an anomaly report from the transmitted attempted network flow metadata. The anomaly report includes at least one of anomalies, cohorts, trends, location boundaries, detected network security issues, detected compromised clients and/or optimized network usage.

Abstract: A modular wallet assembly including a casing, a rail fixed to the casing, and an accessory configured to be detachably coupled to the casing via the rail. The modular wallet assembly further includes a lever arm configured to dispense personal cards stored in the casing.

Abstract: A system for connecting together tubulars includes a first torque-applying device, a second torque-applying device that is offset from the first torque applying device in a first horizontal direction by a first length, a loading assembly configured to convey a first tubular into axial alignment with the first and second torque-applying devices, the first tubular having an axial length that is smaller than the first length, and a tubular spinner configured to spin a second tubular into connection with the first tubular. The first torque-applying device is configured to engage the first tubular, and the second torque-applying device is configured to engage the second tubular so as to apply torque to a connection between the first tubular and the second tubular.

Abstract: A drilling system includes a horizontal tubular handling and transfer assembly configured to receive a tubular component, a first sensor array disposed at a first axial location on the horizontal tubular handling and transfer assembly, and a second sensor array disposed at a second axial location on the horizontal tubular handling and transfer assembly. The drilling system also includes processing circuitry configured to determine a length dimension of the tubular component based on first data feedback from the first sensor array, second data feedback from the second sensor array, or both. The processing circuitry is also configured to determine a diameter dimension of the tubular component based on the first data feedback, the second data feedback, or both.

Abstract: A stand-building system and method for a drilling rig, of which the system includes a casing preparation skid configured to prepare a casing joint for connection to another casing joint, and a casing stand assembly skid configured to receive the prepared casing joint and to connect together the prepared casing joint with one or more other joints so as to form a casing stand. The casing preparing skid and the casing stand assembly skid are horizontally aligned with and extend parallel to one another and to a catwalk of the drilling rig, and the casing stand assembly skid is configured to deliver the casing stand to the catwalk.

Abstract: A supplemental computing display assembly is selectively attachable to a portable computing device having a first display. The supplemental computing display assembly includes: a main housing configured for selective attachment to the portable computing device, a first arm assembly secured to the main housing, and a second display assembly operatively coupled to the first arm assembly. The second display assembly includes a second display configured to communicate with the portable computing device and is positionable adjacent to the first display to act as an additional display for the portable computing device when the main housing is attached to the portable computing device. The second display is selectively movable relative to the main housing between a landscape orientation and a portrait orientation.

Abstract: A catwalk system comprising a catwalk suitcase and a tubular handling catwalk. The catwalk suitcase may have a base configured to receive the tubular handling catwalk, and a ramp connected with the base and configured to extend diagonally to a drill rig floor located at an oil and gas wellsite. The ramp may be configured to facilitate movement of tubulars from the tubular handling catwalk to the drill rig floor.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a skate configured to engage a tubular while moving along a catwalk trough is provided. The skate comprises a frame having a drive system configured to move the tubular along the catwalk trough, a grip device coupled to the frame and configured to grip a pin end of the tubular, and a controller in communication with the drive system that controls movement of the frame based on movement of a box end of the tubular.

Abstract: A skate drive and tubular clamping system for a catwalk. The system includes first and second actuators configured to move a skate and a clamp. The system includes a biasing device coupled to the skate and configured to bias the clamp between and open and clamped position based on a tension force between forces applied by the first and second actuators and a clamping threshold force. The first and second actuators may be flexibly coupled to the skate drive and tubular clamping system, such as by cables, and remotely mounted on a trough of the catwalk.

Abstract: A tubular handling system comprising a catwalk having a trough, a tailing member coupled to the trough, and a catcher coupled to the tailing member. The catcher is moveable relative to the tailing member. The system further includes a support structure coupled to the tailing member at one end and coupled to the trough at an opposite end. The support structure is configured to move the tailing member relative to the trough to guide a tubular from a substantially horizontal or slightly angled position to a substantially vertical position.
