Publication number: 20240138788Abstract: A portable medical imaging system and method, of which the system includes a movable station having a movable C-arm, an imaging signal transmitter attached to the movable C-arm, and an imaging sensor positioned generally opposite to the imaging signal transmitter and attached to the movable c-arm. The imaging sensor is configured to rotate relative to a point approximately on a center axis of the movable C-arm independently of the imaging signal transmitter, so as to change an angle of incidence for a signal transmitted from the imaging signal transmitter to the imaging sensor, and provide a field-of-view that is larger than the field-of-view of the imaging sensor at a single position.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 3, 2024Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Norbert Johnson, Robert Stevens, Hisham Salem, Yuan Cheng, David Cleary

Patent number: 11441390Abstract: Systems and methods include a computer-implemented method for performing an advanced control policy for a group of wells. Choke settings are applied to one or more control elements of each well in a group of wells. Rig control settings are applied to the group of wells. The rig control settings define, for each rule in a set of rules: a rule count limiting a number of times a rule is to be executed in a simulation run and a rule frequency identifying a time frequency by which the rule is to be executed during the simulation run. Settings are received for targets and constraints for the group of wells. The simulation run is executed for the group of wells using the choking settings, the rig control settings, and the settings for of the targets and constraints for the group of wells.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2020Date of Patent: September 13, 2022Assignee: Saudi Arabian Oil CompanyInventors: Ghazi Dhafer AlQahtani, Shahid Manzoor, Hisham Salem, Tareq Shaalan, Zhen Chen
