  • Patent number: 11851988
    Abstract: A well unloading valve for a petrochemical well tubing comprising a flow passage connecting an annulus outside the tubing with the inside of the tubing; a lock-out sleeve for selectively closing the flow passage, wherein the lock-out sleeve can be moved from an open to a closed position by means of hydraulic pressure within the tubing; an electrically activated motor module for moving a seal, wherein the seal selectively opens a hydraulic connection from the inside of tubing to the lock-out sleeve for moving the lock-out sleeve hydraulically from the open to the closed position; and a check valve within the flow passage for allowing a flow from the annulus into the tubing and for blocking a flow from the tubing into the annulus. Further a method for unloading a petrochemical well tubing is claimed.

  • Publication number: 20200308937
    Abstract: A liner for a wellbore having a sidewall in which one or more nozzles are formed is described, wherein the one or more nozzles are plugged by temporary plugs. Also described is a method of completing an open hole well that penetrates a subterranean formation in which a liner having a sidewall in which one or more nozzles are formed, wherein the one or more nozzles are plugged by temporary plugs, is deployed in the well such that the nozzles communicate with the formation.

  • Publication number: 20060152238
    Abstract: A system, apparatus and method for controlling temperature of an integrated circuit in a chip tester is disclosed. Embodiments include supplying a chilled fluid to a cold plate at a first flowrate, where the first flowrate is associated with a first valve setting based on at least a desired temperature setpoint and an applied power. Embodiments may determine a change in applied power and modify the chilled fluid flowrate in response to a change in testing conditions to a second flowrate associated with a second valve setting associated with at least the desired temperature setpoint and the changed testing conditions. This feed forward loop may be supplemented by a feedback loop that includes modifying the energy supplied to a cold plate heater in response to a comparison of a current temperature and the temperature setpoint. The valve may be a proportional control valve or the like.

  • Publication number: 20050030053
    Abstract: An innovative chip testing system and method includes controlling temperature and condensation during testing. Coarse temperature is controlled by providing a desired fluid flow rate and fluid temperature to a cold plate. Fine temperature control is provided by a feedback loop which controls the power dissipation of cartridge heaters installed within the cold plate. Condensation control is provided by insulating various components of the system, manipulation of dry compressed air in enclosures to reduce surface dew point temperatures, usage of cartridge heaters in a card backside stiffener plate, and by providing a heatsink assembly which prevents condensation on the insulation.
