  • Patent number: 11973775
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed to implement a network data interpretation pipeline to recognize machine operations (MOs) and machine activities (MAs) from network traffic data observed in a monitored network. In embodiments, a MO recognition engine is implemented in the network to recognize MOs from network sensor events (NSEs) based on defined recognition patterns. The MOs and any unrecognized NSEs are uploaded to a network monitoring system, where they are further analyzed by a MA recognition engine to recognize higher-level machine activities performed by machines. The NSEs, MOs, and MAs are used by the network monitoring system to implement a variety of security threat detection processes. Advantageously, the pipeline may be used to add rich contextual information about the raw network data to facilitate security threat detection processes.

  • Publication number: 20240131467
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for capturing CO2 on a large scale using aqueous solutions of zwitterionic bases by contacting a gas stream containing one or more acid gases with said solutions. The internal salts obtained in the present invention have the advantage of not being volatile, being less susceptible to chemical and thermal decomposition, and also have lower absorption enthalpy. The present invention can be used in various industry sectors, such as in the energy sector, for capturing CO2 from exhaust gases, in the chemical sector, for removing CO2 from the gas streams of catalytic processes in which the CO2 can poison the catalysts, and, in particular, in the oil and gas sector, for purifying natural gas.

  • Publication number: 20240135391
    Abstract: A computer system for implementing a knowledge graph includes one or more processors and one or more computer-readable media having executable instructions stored thereon. The executable instruction, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the computer system to receive a digital file including a compliance file, which includes one or more levels of compliance processes in a hierarchical order, generate a knowledge graph from text within the digital file, receive a query regarding compliance to the digital file, calculate a metric between each node to a query vector of the query, and provide one more compliance paths to one or more target nodes based on metrics. The knowledge graph is generated by creating nodes based on one or more text entities within the digital file, creating edges based on relationships between the nodes within the digital file, and generating the knowledge graph based on the nodes and the edges.

  • Publication number: 20240133268
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for applying scale inhibitor to completion fluids during injectivity test operations. Said method takes advantage of the completion fluid to inhibit scaling in the reservoir by filling the porous spaces of the reservoir rock with the inhibited completion fluid. When the well is put into production, this inhibited fluid positioned inside the reservoir will be produced together with the oil and will inhibit the formation of scale inside the reservoir and on production equipment.
