Abstract: Processes and apparatus for the removal of debris from conveyances and/or ports within a downhole fluid sampling apparatus. In some embodiments, the process can include providing a fluid sampling apparatus that includes a body that defines a volume. The process can also include starting at least one pump located within the volume. The process can also include conveying a quantity of a cleaning fluid stored within the volume by the pump through a fluid conveyance within the body and through a port of the body to an exterior of the body. The conveying of the quantity of the cleaning fluid can removes at least a portion of debris from at least one of the fluid conveyance and the port.

Abstract: Security, access and the way organizations communicate with their employees, contractors and customers is evolving faster than ever, and as the world is becoming more hybrid, security policies, monitoring and control must become collaborative and interoperable. The techniques described herein provide meaningful correlation and analytics of data coming from multiple sources in the network, access, security and identity, thereby improving troubleshooting, optimizations, threat forensics and analysis, as well as enabling network administrators more control over network policies.

Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques and mechanisms for defining dynamic security compliance in networks to proactively prevent security policy violations from being added and/or made, retroactively and continuously identify security policy violations based on data from the changing threat landscape, and provide auto-remediation of non-compliant security policies. The techniques enable automated security policies and provide improved network security against a dynamic threat landscape.

Abstract: The tissue box cover is an apparatus that helps prevent contaminants such as dust, bacteria, germs, droplets, allergens and viruses that may be spread by sneezing, coughing, talking of people and pets from intruding into the tissue box. The apparatus prevents the tissue box from physical damage and waste of the issues if the tissue box breaks, by providing a protective covering. Further, the apparatus includes a plurality of folding edges that enables a folding configuration for the tissue box cover, for ease of packaging, display, storage and transport. Furthermore, the lid of the apparatus is removably attached, such that the lid may be removed when replacing the tissue box or when the box is stored in a folded configuration. Additionally, a plurality of fasteners mounted between the lid and the box cover, provides secure covering as well as easy fastening and unfastening of the lid to the box cover.

Abstract: The invention relates to system and method for desanding an oil well that includes a fluidizing device (TORE), connected to a downhole pump that connects to a production tubing such that a supply duct is connected to the discharge of the pump and a discharge duct is connected to the suction of the pump. Embodiments include a pressure balance transition device between the TORE and the pump and/or a flow splitting device in the production tubing after the discharge of the pump. Other embodiments relate to a system and method for desanding an oil well in which a fluidizing unit is connected to a pump such that the supply duct is connected to an opening in the pump body or pump rotor and a discharge duct is connected to the suction of the pump. If connected to the rotor, the supply duct is integral to the pump rotor.

Abstract: A stator for a progressive cavity pump comprises a stator housing having a central axis, a first end, and a second end opposite the first end. In addition, the stator comprises a stator liner disposed within the stator housing. The stator liner has a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The first end of the stator liner is axially spaced from the first end of the stator housing. Further, the stator comprises a tag insert positioned in the stator housing between the first end of the stator housing and the first end of the stator liner. The tag insert has a through passage defining a radially inner surface that includes a tag shoulder.
