Abstract: The present disclosure provides a non-combustible aerosol provision system and consumables and aerosol generators for non-combustible aerosol provision systems. In various implementations, the non-combustible aerosol provision system comprises a control device that includes an outer housing defining a receiving chamber, a power source and a control component, an aerosol generator coupled to the control device, and an atomizer-free consumable that includes a substrate for engagement with the aerosol generator. The consumable is configured to be removably coupled with one or both of the control device and the aerosol generator. The aerosol generator defines a vaporization chamber and is configured to heat the substrate to generate an aerosol.

Abstract: A method for determining the extent of recovery of materials injected or otherwise introduced into oil wells or subsurface formations is practiced using a portable device. The portable device can also be used to determiner the occurrence of a predetermined condition in an oil well such as water break through in a production zone, or the opening or closing of a sliding sleeve. When, for example, water breakthrough is detected, the zone producing too much water can be plugged, using, for example, a flow-through bridge plug, if there are other producing zones further downhole. The portable device may be use to make quantitative measurements or it may be used to do pre-screening of samples thereby avoiding further testing of negative samples.

Abstract: The present invention provides time released markers for use with single reservoir and commingled wells. The invention accomplishes the time release of markers by coating or encapsulating marker particles or by coating a proppant which has been saturated with a marker. After coating or encapsulation, the marker is injected into a well as is known in the art. The marker remains in the well. The marker is released after an elapsed of time. The elapsed time can be in a wide range. After the elapsed time, production is taken from the well and tested for the presence of the marker. Various types of known analyses can be performed to test for the presence and concentration of the marker in the production fluid. The concentration of the marker in the production fluid allows the apportioning of production from the reservoir. In addition, different markers may be added to each zone within a reservoir where each marker has a different elapsed time increment.
