  • Patent number: 11976240
    Abstract: A method of removing condensate banking in a subsurface formation using a treatment fluid includes injecting a treatment fluid including nanoparticles and a thermochemical component, the thermochemical component including sodium nitrite and ammonium chloride, into a wellbore having condensate banking, thereby exposing the treatment fluid to subsurface formation conditions. The method further includes allowing a temperature of the wellbore to activate the thermochemical component, causing an exothermic reaction generating nitrogen gas, pressure, and heat. The method further includes allowing the treatment fluid and generated nitrogen gas to mix with the condensate banking, thereby forming a homogenous multi-phase foam and lowering hydrostatic pressure in the wellbore. The method further includes allowing the homogenous multi-phase foam to flow back to the surface due to the pressure generated by the exothermic reaction and lowered hydrostatic pressure in the wellbore, thereby removing the condensate banking.

  • Publication number: 20240147534
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for mitigation of interference related to full-duplex communications for random access channel (RACH) initial access procedures in shared radio frequency spectrum. A user equipment (UE) may send different RACH preambles subsequent to a channel access procedure, based on whether full-duplex communications or half-duplex communications are being used at a corresponding network entity. The different RACH preambles may include a longer RACH preamble that is used when full-duplex is present, and a shorter RACH preamble that is used when full-duplex is not present. The shorter or longer RACH preamble may be used, for example, based at least in part on an open-loop transmit power for the RACH procedure, a RACH occasion configuration that provides different preamble lengths for different RACH occasions, a full-duplexing type that is being used, or any combinations thereof.
