Publication number: 20180225616Abstract: A digital checklist is presented by a graphical user interface of an on-line application on a display of a mobile computing device. The on-line application communicates and cooperates with an artificial intelligence engine. The artificial intelligence engine reviews data recorded in the digital checklist. The on-line application inserts a date and time stamp for data collected on two or more steps of the digital checklist when the data is recorded. The artificial intelligence engine perform one or more actions based on the date and time stamps for a completed digital checklist. The artificial intelligence engine is coded that when it detects an anomaly, then the artificial intelligence engine is configured to generate a report and communicate that report.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 3, 2017Publication date: August 9, 2018Inventors: Joe Dale Jones, Gerald Henry Leekey, Christopher J.

Patent number: 9885796Abstract: A monopole acoustic transmitter for logging-while-drilling comprising as a ring that comprises one or more piezoelectric arc segments. The ring is oriented in a plane whose normal is essentially coincident with the major axis of a logging tool in which it is disposed. The ring disposed within a recess on the outer surface of a short, cylindrical insert. The insert is inserted into a drill collar, rather than into the wall of the collar. The ring can comprise a continuous ring of piezoelectric material, or alternately arc segments or active ring segments of piezoelectric ceramic bonded to segments of other materials such as alumina to increase the frequency or heavy metals such as tungsten to reduce the frequency. The material and dimensions of the material used in-between the piezoelectric segments is chosen to alter the frequency of the ring.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2015Date of Patent: February 6, 2018Assignee: Precision Energy Services, Inc.Inventors: Medhat W. Mickael, Dale A. Jones
