Abstract: One exemplary embodiment is directed to a method (and corresponding system) for managing a request-for-proposal (RFP). The method comprises receiving, at a website, information about the RFP from a customer for the RFP and receiving, at the website, proposals responsive to the RFP from a set of bidders. If requested by the customer, disclosing to each of the bidders a detailed comparative metric relating to the proposal for each of the other bidders. The detailed comparative metric comprises a comparative metric other than a total project cost for the respective proposal.

Abstract: A flow completion system for controlling the flow of fluid from a well bore comprises a tubing spool which is positioned over the well bore, a tubing hanger which is landed in the tubing spool, a first pressure-containing barrier which is secured to the tubing hanger and which comprises a portion that sealingly engages the tubing spool, and a second pressure-containing barrier which is secured to the tubing hanger and which comprises a portion that sealing engages the tubing spool. In addition, each of the first and second pressure-containing barriers is capable of isolating the well bore from the environment during the production mode of operation of the flow completion system.

Abstract: A flow completion system for controlling the flow of fluid from a well bore comprises a tubing spool which includes a central bore that extends axially therethrough and a production outlet which communicates with the central bore. A tubing hanger is supported in the central bore and includes a production bore that extends axially therethrough and a production passageway that communicates between the production bore and the production outlet. A first closure member is positioned in the production bore above the production passageway, and a first metal seal is positioned concentrically between the tubing hanger and the central bore above the production passageway. In addition, a second closure member is positioned in the production bore above the first closure member, and a second metal seal is positioned concentrically between the tubing hanger and the central bore above the first seal.
