Abstract: A vessel is provided that is an improvement over previously disclosed jack-up rigs and lift boats. The vessel has at least three thrusters and is self-propelled. The vessel additionally has a raised and hollow crane support on which a crane may be mounted. The crane support is preferably affixed to tracks, which permit the crane to slide along the deck of the vessel. The raised and hollowed feature of the crane support permits the storage of equipment and things beneath the crane support without hindering the movement of the crane along the tracks. Optionally, the vessel further has an extension assembly atop which may be deployed a workover rig assembly. The crane may be used to assemble the extension assembly and thus aid in the construction, remediation, and demolition of offshore oil and gas platforms and wells.

Abstract: Methods and devices are provided for treating multiple interval well bores. More particularly, an isolation assembly may be used to allow for zonal isolation to allow treatment of selected productive or previously producing intervals in multiple interval well bores. One example of a method for treating a multiple interval well bore includes the steps of: providing an isolation assembly comprising a liner and a plurality of swellable packers wherein the plurality of swellable packers are disposed around the liner at selected spacings; introducing the isolation assembly into the well bore; allowing at least one of the plurality of swellable packers to swell so as to provide zonal isolation of at least one of a plurality of selected intervals; establishing fluidic connectivity to the at least one of a plurality of selected intervals; and treating the at least one of a plurality of selected intervals.

Abstract: A dual tubing coiled tubing string, including methods of assembly, that includes an inner tubing sealed within at least an upper portion of an outer tubing.

Abstract: Method and Apparatus for gravel packing, cleaning and lifting wells, including through tubing methods, circulating well fluids through a coiled tubing string having a leak protection barrier operable for at least a portion of the string passing above a wellhead and employing a circulating and release sub.

Abstract: A method is described for storing and retrieving reports from a computer database with control of access to the database and to the reports. The reports are stored in a current database (16) for a selected period of time and are stored in a library database (18) on a permanent basis. The reports are provided in a report configuration which has data elements of the same parameter at specified locations according to the report configuration. When a report is received for storage in the database, indices are generated relating data elements of various data parameters to memory location of such data elements in the storage locations of the database. The indices can be used to retrieve portions of the report of interest. Access to the database is controlled by report type, report date, and report segment.

Abstract: A combination liner assembly for bathtub, walls and ceiling is provided for renovating a worn or outmoded bathtub installed in a wall recess. The assembly includes a plastic bathtub-shaped liner having a tub portion sized to be seated in the tub cavity of the bathtub with the bottom surface of the tub portion resting upon the bottom surface of the original tub cavity and said bottom surface supporting the weight of the liner as well as the water and the bather therein. The bathtub liner is connected to the waste and overflow drains of the original bathtub and has an outwardly projecting peripheral flange around the top edge thereof which overlies the marginal ledges of the bathtub. Sealing membranes provide water-tight seals between the peripheral flange of the bathtub liner and the walls of the wall recess. The assembly also includes a matching wall liner which covers the walls of the recess above the bathtub liner. The wall liner may be topped by a dome, which rests on an outwardly-extending flange.
