  • Publication number: 20250148429
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for intelligently dispatching vehicles to a vehicle service center to progress vehicles at a predefined rate through sequential stations of the vehicle service center. The disclosed systems can analyze services associated with vehicles. Based on the services, the disclosed systems can determine how to order, within a virtual queue, vehicles corresponding to the services. For example, the disclosed systems can predict a complexity associated with a service for a vehicle, and in turn, determine whether adding the vehicle to the service queue will allow the vehicle to move through a set of sequential stations in accordance with the predefined progression rate. In response, the disclosed systems can dispatch the vehicle, refrain from dispatching the vehicle, or otherwise dynamically respond to enable the vehicle to move through the set of sequential stations in accordance with the predefined progression rate.

  • Patent number: 11994124
    Abstract: A system for compressing gas, including fugitive natural gas emissions from natural gas compression equipment, such that the gas can be reintroduced in an unchanged, undiluted state into a pressurized gas pipeline system such as that used for natural gas. The source of gas can include leakage from natural gas compressor piston rod packing seals, or blowdowns of certain sections of a natural gas pipeline system for purposes of maintenance or emergency operations, or any other leakage source. The current practice within the natural gas pipeline industry is to vent or flare fugitive emissions and blowdown gas to atmosphere.

  • Publication number: 20230417239
    Abstract: A system and method for recovering fugitive natural gas emissions from compressors. Leak capture devices can be connected to piston rods of the compressor for collecting emissions both during operation and periods where the compressor is shutdown. Captured natural gas is repressurized with cylindrical pumps based on the flow rate of the captured emissions. The equipment can also be configured for capturing blow down events of the equipment.

  • Publication number: 20230300087
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a network forwarding IC with packet processing pipelines, at least one of which includes a parser, a set of match-action stages, and a deparser. The parser is configured to receive a packet and generate a PHV including a first number of data containers storing data for the packet. A first match-action stage is configured to receive the PHV from the parser and expand the PHV to a second, larger number of data containers storing data for the packet. Each of a set of intermediate match-action stage is configured to receive the expanded PHV from a previous stage and provide the expanded PHV to a subsequent stage. A final match-action stage is configured to receive the expanded PHV and reduce the PHV to the first number of data containers. The deparser is configured to receive the reduced PHV from the final match-action stage and reconstruct the packet.
