  • Publication number: 20070294491
    Abstract: Methods and systems for storage architectures are provided. Storage resource provider modules interface with storage resources to perform storage operations. A storage management data store maintains storage data associated with a storage environment of the storage resources. The storage resource provider modules retrieve and update the storage management data in response to processing the storage operations. In one embodiment, a storage management application requests a selected storage resource provider module to perform a selected storage operation. The storage management application determines the selected storage resource provider module by acquiring the storage management data in the data store.

  • Publication number: 20040226712
    Abstract: This invention provides a self-contained mobile repair unit having a universal set of hydraulic and pneumatic tooling for servicing well equipment such as an inner pipe string, a sucker rod, or a pump. One or more transducers sense and collect data indicative of one or more parameters measured by the mobile repair unit, such as hook load, engine RPM, or tongue torque. The data is collected and saved in a non-volatile memory device, which is then physically transferred from the mobile repair unit to a central office location, where the data can be compiled, analyzed, and/or posted on a network such as the Internet.
