  • Compositions and methods for inhibiting shale and preventing shale accretion
    Patent number: 12060518
    Abstract: Methods of treating a subterranean formation including shale include preparing a treatment fluid by mixing an aqueous base fluid and a dry polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) in flake or powder form having a molecular weight between about 500,000 and about 2,000,000 and introducing the treatment fluid in the subterranean formation.
    Type: Grant

  • Rare earth oxide as a weighting and bridging agent
    Patent number: 11078401
    Abstract: Methods of treating a subterranean formation and treatment fluids are discussed herein. The methods generally include treating the subterranean formation with a rare earth oxide by providing a first treatment fluid having a density of at least about 10 pounds per gallon including a rare earth oxide; and introducing the first treatment fluid into the subterranean formation.

  • DISTRIBUTED FILE SYSTEM LOAD BALANCING BASED ON AVAILABLE NODE CAPACITY
    Publication number: 20200042608
    Abstract: Implementations are provided herein for optimizing the usage of cluster resources in a cluster of nodes operating as a distributed file system. A node relative capacity table can be generated that inventories the total capacity of each node within the cluster of nodes. Each node can then be dynamically monitored for usage of node resources. A node available capacity table can be dynamically populated with the amount of available capacity each node has for compute, memory usage, and network bandwidth. When clients connect to the distributed file system, they can be directed to have their requests serviced by nodes with greater available capacity based on policy.
