  • Publication number: 20240087000
    Abstract: A method of identifying and enabling a data marketplace system transaction may comprise receiving an enterprise user object map defining a dataset field name and storage location for a dataset to be migrated pursuant to a user data integration process modeled by a user with a plurality of visual elements, identifying a data marketplace domain classification for the dataset to be migrated based on the enterprise user object map, querying a data marketplace application programming interface (API) to determine that it provides a marketplace for datasets meeting the data marketplace domain classification, generating a dataset sale integration process for transmitting the dataset of the data marketplace domain classification selected by the user for sale from a storage location defined by the user data integration process to a location defined by the data marketplace API, and automatically transmitting the dataset of the data marketplace domain classification to a purchaser.

  • Patent number: 11536103
    Abstract: An integrated control system (ICS) for a well drilling platform is provided, which well drilling platform has a plurality of control systems and devices. The ICS includes an ICS controller is in communication with a master control. The ICS controller includes a memory device coupled to a processor. Instructions executed by the processor cause the ICS controller to: communicate with each of the control systems to determine a status of each of the control systems; cause the master control display to display status information for at least one of the control systems; in response to an operator input perform a well drilling platform function, the function requiring a coordinated state between a first control system and at least a second control system, configure the first control system and the second control system into a coordinated state.

  • Patent number: 8881843
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a managed pressure and/or temperature drilling system (300) and method. In one embodiment, a method for drilling a wellbore into a gas hydrates formation is disclosed. The method includes drilling the wellbore into the gas hydrates formation; returning gas hydrates cuttings to a surface of the wellbore and/or a drilling rig while controlling a temperature and/or a pressure of the cuttings to prevent or control disassociation of the hydrates cuttings.

  • Patent number: 5162127
    Abstract: Foodstuffs subject to oxidative or enyzmatic discoloration particularly fruits, vegetables and cereal grains are treated with a combination of hydrolysis mixtures of aldonic acids and their lactones, particularly gluconic acid and its lactones together with very small quantities of a sulfiting agent in aqueous solutions to assist in maintaining fresh appearance and inhibiting discoloration without detracting from the flavor or leaving residues of sulfites in quantities of public health significance.
