  • Publication number: 20220391800
    Abstract: A method for maintaining a fluid containment asset is described. The method comprises: configuring a first schedule having a first work task on the fluid containment asset for a first project; performing the first work task on the fluid containment asset based on the first schedule; measuring a work task performance for the first work task performed based on the first schedule; collecting first work task data corresponding to the first work task performed; building a first predictive model based on at least the first work task data; configuring a second schedule using the first predictive model, wherein the second schedule has a second work task for a second project; and performing the second work task on the fluid containment asset based on the second schedule.

  • Publication number: 20060243493
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for changing the speed of a drill bit down hole in a fluid-actuated motor, including a positive displacement motor and a hydraulic motor, is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a bypass valve installed in the motor for controlling flow through and around the power section of the motor. When closed, the bypass valve forces all fluid to flow through the power section of the motor, imparting maximum speed to the drill bit. When opened, a portion of the fluid flow is allowed to flow around the power section of the motor, thereby reducing the speed of the drill bit. The bypass valve may be opened or closed mechanically, electrically, hydraulically, pneumatically, or by any other means, including a removable plug.
