Abstract: A flow control valve configured to be positioned in a tubing in a borehole formed in a subsurface formation, wherein the flow control is used to regulate a flow of an injection fluid into the subsurface formation based on a vapor-transition characteristic of a fluid contained within a chamber of the flow control valve.

Abstract: A pathway identification system includes processor and memory hardware. The memory hardware stores a pathway database including pathways corresponding to at least one pathway parameter, a framework database including a set of framework transformation models, and instructions. The instructions include, in response to receiving a first pathway parameter corresponding to a user, identifying a subset of pathways of the pathways corresponding to the first pathway parameter. The instructions include obtaining a first set of framework transformation models from the framework database, determining a pathway value for each pathway of the subset of pathways using the first set of framework transformation models, and selecting at least one pathway of the subset of pathways based on the corresponding pathway value. The instructions include transmitting information encoding the at least one pathway to the operator device and transforming a user interface of the operator device to display the at least one pathway.

Abstract: An emergency alert system is described. The emergency alert system comprises at least one alert device; a control module connected to the alert device for managing the emergency alert system 5 through radio frequency communications over a radio link; and a portable remote-control unit for sending a signal to the control module, via the radio link, upon a user activating the remote-control unit to trigger an emergency alert using the alert device, wherein the control module is used to determine a physical location of the portable remote-control unit via the radio link in the event of the emergency alert being triggered.

Abstract: A transmission includes an electro-hydraulic controller that includes redundancy in the hydraulic circuit that permits single fault failures to be compensated for by changing the flow path of hydraulic fluid to bypass the single fault failure. The redundancy results in the ability of the transmission to maintain full operation in all modes.
