Abstract: A road cone deployment and collection system comprising including a chute having an upper road cone holding section and a rear opening at the bottom of the chute for road cone deployment and a front opening at the bottom of the chute for road cone collection. A road cone retention and release mechanism is configured to hold a stack of road cones, separate and release one road cone at a time from the stack to the chute for deployment from the rear opening, and add a road cone to a stack of road cones collected from the front opening of the chute and raised to be added to a stack of road cones.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments provide computer-implemented methods, computer-readable media, and systems for changing the identifier associated with an entity, such as a variable or function, in a portion of code. During editing, a reference may be maintained that identifies the location of each instance of the entity in the code. When the identifier associated with one instance of the entity is changed, the change in the identifier may be propagated throughout the code to change each instance of the identifier in the code. The identifier may be changed without interrupting the workflow of the user and without the need to change to a separate refactoring mode. In some embodiments, a syntactical analysis may be performed and some or all instances of the identifier may be changed based on one or more rules.

Abstract: A data communication system for use in downhole applications wherein electrical energy is supplied over a multiple-conductor power cable to an ESP motor assembly. A downhole unit is AC-coupled to the conductors of the power cable through the wye point of the ESP motor assembly. A surface unit is AC-coupled to the conductors of the power cable. Uplink communication of telemetry data occurs over an AC communication scheme supported by the downhole unit and the surface unit. Downlink communication of remote control command data occurs over a different AC communication scheme supported by the surface unit and the downhole unit. These AC communication schemes provide an independent supply of power to the downhole environment. All communication between the surface and downhole environment is accomplished through the power cable without the use of additional communication lines. Data communication is maintained in the event of a ground fault on the power cable.

Abstract: An electric submersible pump device, comprising an electric motor having stators and coils; a pump coupled with the electric motor; a thermocouple or RTD for measuring temperature of the motor windings.

Abstract: A system and method is provided for sensing parameters within a wellbore. At least one sensor sub is coupled between stage components of an electric submersible pumping system. A plurality of sensor subs can be disposed between adjacent pairs of stage components to obtain sensor data along the electric submersible pump string. Each sensor sub contains a sensor element or elements designed to sense parameters internal and/or external to the electric submersible pumping system.

Abstract: A preparative-scale gas chromatographic system has conduits and valves adapted for analysis and collection of low volatility effluent. An injection site is provided for alternately supplying liquid solvent for removing condensed effluent from the system when the flow of effluent is terminated. Conduits are joined within the thermal conductivity detector of the system to prevent condensation at the joint. Conduits are provided with copper jackets which are coupled to sources of thermal energy to prevent condensation within the conduits. A trap filter provides backpressure in the collection system wherein recovery of condensed effluent in the filter is facilitated by the smooth surface of the filter.
