Patents by Inventor Perry Haney

Perry Haney has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9417162
    Abstract: The invention allows for the collection of formation gases by placement of an agitating pipe directly in the drilling fluid flow line; the pipe's opening cut at an angle so gas in the top half of the drilling fluid flow line will be collected and also analyzed, along with the gas agitated from the drilling fluid. An expansion chamber is disclosed which encourages the drilling fluid flow line to release the gas held within it, so sample testing of the gases is more accurate than it would be in the prior art.
    Type: Grant

    Inventor: Perry Haney
  • Patent number: 8720287
    Abstract: The gas trap collects formation gases from oil well fluid flow in real time. Gases are released by the fluid when agitated by an agitating pipe which stirs the fluid flow; the gases are then collected and separated from the fluid to be analyzed. The gas trap does hinder the flow of formation cuttings in the drilling fluid flow line, but allows the formation cuttings to flow around the agitator pipe and out to the sample box.
