Publication number: 20250236169Abstract: A method and conditioning system for conditioning exhaust gas are provided. The conditioning system includes one or more heat removal systems for removing heat from an exhaust gas. The conditioning system also includes a condensate removal system fluidly coupled with, and positioned downstream of, the one or more heat removal systems. The condensate removal system is operable to remove moisture from the exhaust gas. In some variants, the conditioning system further includes one or more fluid chambers fluidly coupled with, and positioned downstream of, the condensate removal system. Each fluid chamber defines an interior in which a capture medium is contained. The cooled, moisture-depleted exhaust is selectively distributed to the fluid chambers to allow for harvesting or capture of a set of target species from the exhaust gas.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 11, 2025Publication date: July 24, 2025Inventors: David Griggs, Eric Harding

Publication number: 20250129890Abstract: An offload system is provided. The offload system is configured to offload a target species stored in an onboard volume positioned onboard a vehicle to an offboard volume. In one aspect, the offload system includes an onboard system positioned onboard the vehicle and an offboard system positioned offboard the vehicle. The onboard system selectively allows the target species stored in the onboard volume to flow downstream to the offboard system, which includes the offboard volume. The onboard system, the offboard system, or both, include features that facilitate efficient and safe offloading of the target species from the onboard volume to the offboard volume.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2024Publication date: April 24, 2025Inventors: Julia STUART, Eric HARDING

Patent number: 8517634Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for replacing, repositioning and/or repairing a section of pipe within a pipeline located on a seabed. System components are delivered by a surface vessel to the vicinity of the damaged section of pipe. Piles are partially driven into the seabed adjacent the damaged section of pipe such that each of the piles has an exposed pile top above the seabed. Pile tops are employed to support load-bearing manipulator assemblies each having a hydraulically controlled manipulator arm having a a grapple capable of grasping and repositioning a section of pipe. The manipulator assemblies are operated to grasp, lift and manipulate pipe surrounding the damaged section. Other pile tops are employed to support spool supports capable of firmly holding a replacement spool piece of pipe during replacement operations. During replacement of a damaged section of pipe, the manipulator assemblies hold the pipe while cuts are made to free the damaged section.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2011Date of Patent: August 27, 2013Assignee: Chevron U.S.A.
