  • Publication number: 20240263541
    Abstract: A blowout preventer actuation system has a frame configured for underwater disposal, with a kinetic blowout preventer and at least one hydraulically actuated blowout preventer mounted thereon. The kinetic blowout preventer is configured with an electrically operated initiator. An interface module is disposed on the frame for signal communication with the electrically operated initiator. The interface module is configured to generate an actuation signal to actuate the initiator upon detection of the at least one of an electrical signal, an acoustic signal, and a hydraulic signal. A method for actuating a blowout preventer.

  • Publication number: 20240263535
    Abstract: Cutters for severing objects in a bore. The cutters having a planar body with an opening passing from a top surface through a bottom surface, with the opening encircled by the body. A cutting edge is disposed on a side of the opening proximate a back end of the body. The cutting edge having a layer thereon to sealingly cover the edge. The body is configured for placement with the opening coincident with a bore in a housing and for movement across the bore. The body is configured to receive a propelled member to make contact with the body to transfer kinetic energy from the member to the body to move the body across the bore for the cutting edge to pass through the layer thereon and sever any object in the bore. A method for severing objects in a bore.

  • Publication number: 20170052156
    Abstract: Techniques and systems for displaying chromatographic data using a graphical user interface are provided. Chromatographic separation data that represent multiple series of measurements for multiple samples can be displayed on a display device of a computer system as a series of bands, the bands being arranged to resemble output from an electrophoresis gel. The bands may be aligned using a marker included in each sample.
