Douglas John LaBrecque has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Method and apparatus for measuring the electrical impedance properties of geological formations using multiple simultaneous current sources
    Patent number: 9995838
    Abstract: A system for measuring geological data is disclosed. The system includes several transceivers distributed over a geographical area. Each of the transceivers has at least one transmitter and at least one receiver. The transceivers are in communication with each other. The receivers are adapted to measure at least one electrical signal. The transmitters are adapted to inject an electrical current into a subsurface area. The transmitters operate simultaneously to inject the electrical current into the subsurface area simultaneously from a number of locations.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 5, 2015
    Date of Patent: June 12, 2018
    Assignee: MULTI-PHASE TECHNOLOGIES, LLC
    Inventor: Douglas John LaBrecque
