Abstract: A tool with a deformable element that is configured to flex across an annulus based on a force being applied to an inner surface of the deformable element. The deformable element may be configured to be positioned within a chamber that is covered by a first rupture disc. The deformable element may include seals, flex joints, and a body.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for characterizing a fluid provide for flowing a sample fluid through a microfluidic flow line and subsequently flushing the flowline with flushing fluid alone or together with heating and/or exposure to a pulsating electromagnetic field. A tracer fluid is injected and tracked in a microfluidic line based on known properties of the tracer fluid.

Abstract: A toe sleeve that is configured to allow communication between an inner diameter of the tool and an annulus outside of the tool during a bleed off cycle, which occurs after testing the casing. To test the casing, pressure within the inner diameter of the tool may be increased, and during a bleed off cycle the pressure within the inner diameter of the tool may be reduced.

Abstract: A Frac plug with multiple pump down rings, wherein the outer diameter of the pump down rings is smaller than that of the inner diameter of the casing, which may not allow a seal to be formed across the casing. Systems may also include a rupture disc within the Frac plug that is positioned adjacent to an atmospheric chamber, which allows the rupture disc to be removed based on a known pressure.

Abstract: A toe sleeve that is configured to disconnect from casing. More specifically, a toe sleeve that is configured to shear from casing creating a dynamic opening that does not get plugged.

Abstract: An inflatable packer assembly configured to be conveyed within a wellbore. The inflatable packer assembly includes a mandrel having a flowline, a first packer ring slidably connected with the mandrel, a second packer ring fixedly connected with the mandrel, a latching mechanism fluidly connected with the flowline, and an inflatable packer fluidly connected with the flowline. The inflatable packer may be disposed around the mandrel and sealingly connected with the first and second packer rings. The inflatable packer may be operable to expand against a sidewall of the wellbore upon receiving a fluid from the flowline. The latching mechanism may be operable to limit movement of the first packer ring with respect to the mandrel, and permit the movement of the first packer ring with respect to the mandrel upon being actuated by the fluid from the flowline.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for characterizing a fluid provide for flowing a sample fluid through a microfluidic flow line and subsequently flushing the flowline with flushing fluid alone or together with heating and/or exposure to a pulsating electromagnetic field. A tracer fluid is injected and tracked in a microfluidic line based on known properties of the tracer fluid.

Abstract: A simulation manikin (1) for central venous cannulation comprises a first tube (3) for simulating a vein, a simulated clavicle (4), a first member (2) to which the tube (3) and simulated clavicle (4) are removeably affixed to in a position which is anatomically correct with respect to each other and a second member (11) having a surface which simulates the contours of half a neck to the clavicle. The manikin (1) is useful for teaching students identification of key anatomic landmarks, navigation of needle under ultrasound, recognition of correct blood vessels, and avoiding and managing potential complications.

Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for managing information technology (IT) processes for a computer network. An incident report, including associated data, is received from an application monitoring resources on the computer network. Additional data associated with the computer network resources to be obtained based on the incident report is automatically identified and obtained. Related data in a historical database is automatically identified based on the incident report and/or the additional data and the identified related historical data is automatically retrieved. The incident report, the additional data and/or the related historical data are analyzed to identify a responsive process to respond to the incident report.

Abstract: A tool that is usable with a well includes a movable element and a curved actuator. The curved actuator is adapted to move in a curved path that at least partially surrounds a longitudinal axis of the tool to actuate the element.
