Abstract: A process is presented for the production of high quality kerosene from lower quality feedstocks, including kerosene produced from coker units, or kerosene from cracking units. The process includes hydrotreating the feedstock to remove contaminants in the feedstock. The hydrotreated process stream is then treated in a trim reactor at higher pressure to reduce the bromine index of the kerosene.

Abstract: A quick-release automatic tensioning motor base for supporting a motor. The motor is operably coupled to a device to be driven via a drive belt. The motor base includes base brackets and at least one guide rail fixedly coupled between the base brackets. A platform assembly, which supports the motor, is slidably coupled to the guide rail. A spring assembly is selectively coupled between the base brackets and fixedly coupled to the platform assembly. The spring assembly applies a biasing force to the platform assembly to maintain a belt tension along the drive belt. A quick-release assembly selectively engages the spring assembly and base brackets to permit movement of the quick-release assembly between a fastened position and a released position. A spring compression retention assembly is operably coupled to the spring assembly to maintain spring compression on the spring assembly even when the quick-release assembly is in the released position.

Abstract: A method of making Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) calls, legacy circuit calls, sending/receiving Short Message Service (SMS) over Long Term Evolution (LTE) modem or a legacy modem on a mobile terminal with both kinds of modems, and providing all legacy modem functions is disclosed. In addition, methods for dynamic selection of radio in a mobile terminal capable of Rich Communications Services (RCS) capabilities, and a method for redirecting RCS traffic to an alternate network interface is also disclosed. Methods for Session Initiation Protocol module (SIP) stack functions to be distributed across different processors on a mobile terminal, and directed to different network interfaces is disclosed. Methods of adding video calling and RCS functions without encountering the dual registration problem are also disclosed.

Abstract: An apparatus may include a tubular, a first isolator connected to the tubular and configured to engage an interior surface of the wellbore, a first pressure gauge connected to the tubular and configured to take multiple pressure readings over a period of time, and a first perforation gun connected to the tubular without compromising the communication of fluid through an inner flow channel of the tubular. A method may include placing the apparatus in a wellbore, and actuating the isolator to provide isolation of a first zone in a formation. The method may include activating the perforation gun to provide fluid communication between an annulus of the wellbore and the zone in the formation. The method may include allowing the pressure gauge to take a plurality of pressure readings over a period of time. Based on the pressure readings, the method may include determining a formation characteristic.

Abstract: A process for hydrotreating coker kerosene is described. Instead of a post treat reactor, a smaller trim reactor zone which operates at a lower pressure than the post treat reactor is used downstream of the product stripper. The trim reactor uses a noble metal catalyst to reduce the BI of the stripped product to less than about 150, and desirably in the range of about 50 to about 100.

Abstract: A quick-release automatic tensioning motor base for supporting a motor. The motor is operably coupled to a device to be driven via a drive belt. The motor base includes at least two base brackets and at least one guide rail fixedly coupled between the base brackets. A platform assembly, which supports the motor, is slidably coupled to the guide rail for movement there along. A spring assembly is selectively coupled between the base brackets and fixedly coupled to the platform assembly. The spring assembly applies a biasing force to the platform assembly to maintain a belt tension along the drive belt. A quick-release assembly selectively engages the spring assembly and the at least two base brackets to permit movement of the quick-release assembly between a first position to retain the spring assembly and a second position to release the spring assembly to permit movement of the platform assembly.

Abstract: A Session Initiation Protocol session on a mobile terminal is tagged to associate the session with a specific application and SIP messages for the SIP session are associated with, and routed to, the specific application according to the tagging. A conduit manager matches sessions to the specific application when there are multiple applications sharing a same connection between the user terminals. SIP messages intended for legacy Rich Communication Services application are routed to the legacy RCS application and all remaining messages are routed to the conduit manager. A new data or media type which is not one of pre-defined RCS data transactions may be added by supplying additional parameters in a Session Description Protocol parameters section. User terminals may be secured from unwanted RCS applications by each application holding a valid permission to access an RCS service.

Abstract: Cable end section comprises end-parts of N electrical phases/neutral, and a thermally-insulation envelope comprising cooling fluid. The end-parts each comprises a conductor and are arranged with phase 1 innermost, N outermost surrounded by the neutral, electrical insulation being between phases and N and neutral. The end-parts comprise contacting surfaces located sequentially along the longitudinal extension of the end-section. A termination unit has an insulating envelope connected to a cryostat, special parts at both ends comprising an adapter piece at the cable interface and a closing end-piece terminating the envelope in the end-section. The special parts houses an inlet and/or outlet for cooling fluid. The space between an inner wall of the envelope and a central opening of the cable is filled with cooling fluid. The special part at the end connecting to the cryostat houses an inlet or outlet, splitting cooling flow into cable annular flow and termination annular flow.

Abstract: Methods of IP to IP handover for VoIP calls are disclosed. Handover can occur using UDP in connectionless mode to switch networks, a hybrid approach including establishing both a TCP session and a UDP session and handing off using the UDP session, utilizing a network SIP proxy to maintain connection with the IMS server while the mobile device switches networks connecting the mobile device to the SIP proxy, using a modified Connection Manager that permits multiple IP connections simultaneously, and connecting via an on-device virtual network to an on-device router which reroutes calls to the appropriate network are detailed.
