Abstract: A neuromodulation therapy is delivered via at least one electrode implanted subcutaneously and superficially to a fascia layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. In one example, an implantable medical device is deployed along a superficial surface of a deep fascia tissue layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. Electrical stimulation energy is delivered to the nerve through the deep fascia tissue layer via implantable medical device electrodes.

Abstract: A method of identifying hydrocarbon production information is disclosed. In in a first hydrocarbon management environment, a first audio signal is detected and a characteristic acoustic fingerprint is identified therefrom. The fingerprint is stored in a memory, along with identifying information associated with the first signal. A second audio signal is detected and a characteristic acoustic fingerprint is identified therefrom. The fingerprints are compared, and if the fingerprints match the identifying information of the first audio signal is assigned to the second audio signal. A notification regarding the matching of the characteristic acoustic fingerprints of the first and second audio signals is issued.

Abstract: Methods of facilitating human interpretation of a plurality of time-series datasets generated from operation of hydrocarbon wells. The methods include obtaining the plurality of time-series datasets and displaying a vector map. The plurality of time-series datasets is generated from an operation of the hydrocarbon well and includes a first time-series dataset and a second time-series dataset, and optionally may include a third time-series dataset. The vector map includes a time axis and a plurality of points distributed along the time axis at a plurality of corresponding times. A color of each point of the plurality of points is defined in a plural-component color space and includes a first color component at a first intensity and a second color component at a second color component at a second intensity, and optionally a third color component at a third intensity when the plurality of time-series datasets includes a third time-series dataset.

Abstract: Methods of characterizing acoustic output from a hydrocarbon well and hydrocarbon wells that include controllers that perform the methods are disclosed herein. The methods include receiving the acoustic output, determining a plurality of acoustic fingerprints, and electronically clustering the plurality of acoustic fingerprints. The acoustic output includes information regarding a plurality of sound events, and each sound event of the plurality of sound events includes at least one corresponding sound detected at the hydrocarbon well. The plurality of acoustic fingerprints includes a corresponding acoustic fingerprint for each sound event of the plurality of sound events. The electronically clustering includes utilizing a clustering algorithm to generate a plurality of acoustic event clusters.

Abstract: Methods of increasing efficiency of plunger lift operations and hydrocarbon wells that perform the methods are disclosed herein. The methods include monitoring an acoustic output from the hydrocarbon well.

Abstract: A system includes a processor and a memory. The memory stores instructions executable by the processor to, upon determining that a first fluid level in a vehicle container is below a threshold based on fluid level sensor data, determine a second fluid level based on a fluid consumption signal and the fluid level sensor, and to navigate the vehicle based on the determined second fluid level.

Abstract: A method and controller system are described for automatically tuning a controller of a drilling rig. The controller system includes a controller that determines a moving average of measured values, determines a moving standard deviation of the measured values, defines an outer zone of measured values with the determined moving average and the determined moving standard deviation, defines an inner zone of measured values with the determined moving average and the determined moving standard deviation, monitors the measured values for the occurrence of statistical events with respect to the outer zone and inner zone. Based on the detected statistical event, the controller adjusts the gain of the controller the based on the statistical event being associated with the outer zone or inner zone.
