  • Publication number: 20240061146
    Abstract: A group of wells may be located within a region of interest. Multiple scenarios of boundary locations within a group of wells may be obtained. A top-and-base boundary pair, defining a package of interest, may be identified within the individual scenarios of boundary locations. A subsurface property of the package of interest within the individual scenarios of boundary locations may be determined, and the subsurface property of the package of interest within the individual scenarios of boundary locations may be used to determine a subsurface characteristic of the region of interest.

  • Publication number: 20240019600
    Abstract: A group of wells may be located within a region of interest. Multiple scenarios of boundary locations within the group of wells may be obtained. Boundary likelihood curves for the wells may be generated. Different number and/or locations of boundaries within different scenarios of boundary locations may be synthetized into the boundary likelihood curves. A visual representation of the boundary likelihood curves may be generated. The visual representation of the boundary likelihood curves may be used to automatically select and/or guide manual selection of boundary locations in the region of interest.

  • Publication number: 20230399934
    Abstract: A region of interest may include a group of wells. The group of wells may be connected to form a graph of wells, with nodes representing wells and edges representing connections between wells. Connection scores from dynamic time warping paths for individual pairs of connected wells may be used to detect anomalies in the region of interest. Number of boundaries within individual wells may be used to detect anomalies in the region of interest. Connection score and/or number of boundaries may be represented on a visual map of the region of interest.

  • Publication number: 20230366309
    Abstract: A well may be selected from a group of wells. Multiple scenarios of boundary locations within the selected well may be determined based on propagation of boundaries from other wells to the selected well. A visual representation of the multiple scenarios of boundary locations within the selected well may be provided based on spatial arrangement of the wells within the group of wells. A visual representation of the spatial arrangement of the wells within the group of wells may be provided.

  • Publication number: 20230351079
    Abstract: An intermediary well may be selected for a group of wells. The intermediary well may be used as an origin point from which branching wells paths are generated to connect the group of wells through the intermediary well. A shortest path between the intermediary well and the group of wells along the branching well paths may be identified, and the group of wells may be aligned along the shortest path. Boundaries of the intermediary well may be propagated to the aligned group of wells to establish correlation between segments of the intermediary well and segments of the aligned group of wells.

  • Patent number: 11740386
    Abstract: Simulated wells may be selected from a subsurface representation to serve as representation of the corresponding simulated subsurface region. Spatial coverage of a simulated well for the simulated subsurface region may be determined based on extent of similarity between the simulated well and other simulated wells in the subsurface representation. The simulated wells may be selected to achieve desired spatial coverage for the simulated subsurface region and to achieve desired representation of properties of interest for the simulated subsurface region.

  • Publication number: 20230265151
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds having activity at both the human glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptors. The present invention also relates to compounds having an extended duration of action at each of these receptors. Furthermore, the present invention relates to compounds that may be administered orally. These compounds may be useful in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (“T2DM”). These compounds may be useful in the treatment of obesity.

  • Publication number: 20220287416
    Abstract: A clasp is configured to permanently interlock around a flexible strip of material and includes first and second interlocking members. At least one interlocking member includes a Bluetooth communication device. Each interlocking member can include a plurality of hooks and a corresponding plurality of recesses, where the recesses of one interlocking member receive the hooks of the other interlocking member to secure a band within the clasp between the interlocking members. The recesses can be completely internal to the clasp to prevent external tampering. Each of the interlocking members can include various protrusions and ribs that compress and secure the band within the clasp, so as to prevent movement of the band between the interlocking members when interlocked.

  • Patent number: 11308748
    Abstract: Provided is a band cut detection system, comprising a flexible band having a transmission medium extending along its length, a processor coupled to the transmission medium, and a wireless communication device coupled to the processor, wherein the processor and wireless communication device are configured to generate and transmit a cut detection signal when the flexible band is cut, damaged, or otherwise compromised. A clasp can be included and configured to irremovably secure overlapping portions of the flexible band. The clasp can encase and protect the processor. The band cut detection system can comprise a detection application executable by a processor of a computer to receive and process the cut detection signal and responsively generate a cut detection indication.

  • Patent number: 11282269
    Abstract: 2D slices/images may be extracted from a three-dimensional volume of subsurface data. Image comparison analysis across sequential 2D slices/images may identify boundaries within the corresponding subsurface region, such as changes in style of deposition or reservoir property distribution. Identification of temporal/spatial boundaries in the subsurface region where subsurface properties change may facilitate greater understanding of the scales and controls on heterogeneity, and connectivity between different locations.
