Abstract: A method of servicing a wellbore comprising preparing a wellbore servicing composition having a target water content, placing the wellbore servicing composition in the wellbore, recovering from the wellbore a recovered wellbore servicing fluid having a modified water content, wherein the modified water content is greater than the target water content, vacuum stripping water from the recovered wellbore servicing fluid to form a processed wellbore servicing fluid, wherein the processed wellbore servicing fluid has a water content less than the modified water content, and placing the processed wellbore servicing fluid in the same or a different wellbore.

Abstract: A method for the recovery of oil according to which a well is drilled using a drill bit; drilling fluid is introduced to the drill bit and a mixture of the fluid and cuttings from the well is passed to the ground surface. The mixture is passed into a vessel and the vessel is transported from the ground surface to another area where the fluid is separated from the cuttings in the vessel.

Abstract: A skeletonized, adjustable, high-rise scaffold assembly employs stacked sections, each made-up of a pair of opposed end frames or panels. The end frames of cooperating upper and lower sections are each provided with a pair of main or outer, supporting side legs and retained latching pin means for vertically adjustably connecting the sections together. Side legs of each end frame have a pin connector extending inwardly within a plane of the frame to removably receive ends of cross brace members that are mounted to extend from an end frame of one section diagonally across in a connected relation with an opposed end frame of the other section. The cross brace members have spaced-apart latching hole portions at at least one of their ends to enable a selection of a proper hole portion that is related to or compatible with an up or down adjustment of the frames of an upper section with respect to frames of a cooperating lower section.

Abstract: A shoring or scaffold for construction, maintenance and other work, using stacked scaffold sections of a demountable type and having a heighth adjusting construction is provided. Each section has a pair of spaced-apart end frames that are demountably cross-connected with respect to each other and the end frames of upper and lower sections have a telescopic adjustable relation to meet heighth requirements. To provide strength and support rigidity, dual-tire bracing members are utilized to extend from the end frame of a lower section across and in an interconnecting relation with an opposed end frame of an upper section.
