  • Publication number: 20070176849
    Abstract: An apparatus for viewing an environment. The environment may be, for example, water inside a fish tank, the interior of a pet cage or habitat, or simply a room divided by a wall or window. The apparatus includes a first viewing piece defining a first viewport. The apparatus may further include a second viewing piece defining a second viewport with the first and second viewing pieces operably connected by a bracket or magnets. One of the viewing pieces magnifies at least a portion of the environment, and the first viewport may at least partially aligns with the second viewport. A line with a stay may be connected to the one of the viewpieces for maintaining the viewing apparatus in a stationary position relative to the environment. The stay may be an anchor or a suction cup for attachment to a partition, such a fish tank or pet cage wall, at least partially defining the environment.

  • Publication number: 20070074871
    Abstract: A progressing cavity pump (PCP) system that may be deployed in an existing well configuration without the need for a workover rig. A stator and tubing stop are first set in a conduit, such as production tubing, at a desired depth. In subsequent wireline runs, a pack-off and upper tubing stop are installed above the stator, which results in the stator assembly being set by tubing stops on top and bottom and results in the conduit above the PCP being isolated from the wellbore below. Installation of the system is completed by installing the rotor and by installing top-side drive equipment in the usual way. The PCP system allows the deployment of lift systems within existing well configurations without any element being deployed on tubing and provides the ability to retrofit a well with an insertable pump within existing tubing.
