  • Patent number: 11530605
    Abstract: A crossbore detection system. The system is located in a downhole tool proximate a drill bit. The system comprises circuitry sensitive to a subsurface environment and a sensor that detects changes in the circuitry. The sensor detects changes in the circuitry that indicates that the drill bit has struck an underground pipe. The sensor may detect a series of electromagnetic signals indicative of the strike or may detect changes to an impedance bridge at a capacitive sensor.

  • Patent number: 4066756
    Abstract: There is described a pharmaceutical mixture comprising 1,3-bis(2-carboxychromon-5-yloxy)propan-2-ol, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and aspirin or indomethacin. The mixture causes less gastrointestinal adverse effects than aspirin or indomethacin on their own.
