Abstract: A monitoring and control system for a dewatering pump configured to dewater a gas well is provided. A dewatering pump is driven at a first speed to pump fluid out of a well annulus. A fluid level detection device is configured to identify a change of fluid level in the well annulus occurring between a first time and a second, later time. A controller is configured to change the speed of the dewatering pump from the first speed to a second speed based upon the identified change in fluid level. Several embodiments of the fluid level detection devices are provided.

Abstract: Power and control logic configurations for gas well dewatering systems are provided. In one example, a reservoir is configured to contain hydraulic, lubricating fluid. An electric motor is configured to receive fluid from the reservoir for lubrication and a hydraulic pump powered by the electric motor is configured to receive fluid from the reservoir and pump the fluid into a hydraulic circuit. A positive displacement oscillating pump is powered by the hydraulic pump and configured to pump fluid from the reservoir to an outlet from the well. The electric motor and hydraulic pump receive the same fluid from the reservoir for lubrication and to create pressure in the hydraulic circuit, respectively.

Abstract: Configurations for gas well dewatering systems having overpressure protection to protect a pump and its peripheral equipment from damage due to overpressure are provided.

Abstract: A hanger system is provided for supporting a cable-supported dewatering pump in a gas well. A dewatering pump is supported in a downhole location by a cable. A cable hanger bears the weight of the cable and the weight of the dewatering pump. A pulling tool is configured to detachably connect to the cable hanger and to support the weight of the cable hanger, cable and gas well dewatering system as it is pulled out of a seated position in the well.

Abstract: A system and method for collecting computer application usage data from a plurality of client devices. The system may include a monitoring program executable on each of the plurality of client devices. The monitoring program may be configured to receive from a server via a computer network monitoring data including one or more application identifiers, and to identify one or more target application programs executed on the client device as matching one of the identifiers. The monitoring program may further be configured to gather usage data for the target application program over a period of time, and send a message back to the server including the usage data. Reports may be generated based on the usage data.

Abstract: To apply a resin impregnated fabric to a substrate, a device includes a surface having a layer of material and a first edge. The surface moves relative to the substrate and to conform to the substrate. The layer of material is compatible for use with the resin. The first edge is disposed at the front of the surface relative to the movement of the device to the fabric. The first edge is curved with a center portion of the first edge being relatively forward of a pair of side portions of the first edge.

Abstract: A tool is provided that automates and expedites the ASIC design review process by allowing designers to perform a comprehensive asynchronous path design review of the circuit design HDL code. The tool operates on either an entire hierarchy or any sub-block of the circuit design. Filters are provided to allow the user to disregard known and desired synchronization circuits from the output generated by the tool. The tool provides an output that can take either of two formats, i.e. the output may be presented in a tabular form by hierarchical signal name, or it may be presented in a graphical, schematic block diagram form. In operation, the tool performs an exhaustive search of all circuits and identifies any asynchronous behavior. A user interface is provided that requires two data inputs and provides for an additional optional field. The two mandatory fields identify the location of all design files and the module at which the tool should begin its analysis.

Abstract: The detergent inhibitor package has been found to influence the viscometric properties of SAE 5W lubricants that have less than 5 mass % of non-conventional basestock, use a basestock that has an average base stock neutral number not less than 105, a calibrated Noack volatility of not more than 22 wt. % loss, and a kinematic viscosity at 100.degree. C. (kV 100, measured by ASTM D445) less than 12.5 cSt. In particular, neutral and overbased calcium salts of organic acids have been found to increase low temperature high shear viscosity when measured in the CCS (ASTM D5293). These salts which are widely used for their detergency and acid neutralization properties should be avoided altogether or used at a level not exceeding 0.0007 moles of organic calcium salt per 100 grams of lubricant. Where diesel performance is required, for example to lubricate passenger car diesel engines, a calcium salt of an organic acid may be required to control piston deposits.
