Publication number: 20190063647Abstract: A full-face flare joint for a lined piping system having a connector portion of a metal piping being flared radially outwardly at a predetermined angle to form a pipe lap with a first surface and a second surface. The first surface is configured to engage a pipe flange. Further, a pipe lining extends out of the connector portion and is flared radially outwardly over the second surface of the pipe lap thereby forming a liner flare. A full-face flare component with a bottom portion is attached to the liner flare so that the bottom portion of the component forms an angle of about 90° with an inner surface of the pipe lining.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2017Publication date: February 28, 2019Inventor: Yong Ann Jeffrey LIM

Publication number: 20030014345Abstract: The present risk management system with intelligent user interfaces divides all processes within the system into different “flowchart” phases. Decisions or inputs that can have knock-on effects on other decisions or inputs will be required at an earlier phase or level. If say, a particular decision or input has a knock-on effect on another decision or input, the system will require this decision or input to be entered at an earlier phase. This ensures a systematic and logical input of data as opposed to having all decisions or inputs appearing at the same time or in one phase, as in the case of other financial option and derivative pricing and structuring software programs. The system uses this “flowchart” process to provide an on-line guidance system for the users to input only the required decisions or inputs as they go along.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 25, 2002Publication date: January 16, 2003Inventor: Cheong Kee Jeffrey Lim
