  • Patent number: 11928515
    Abstract: A system for providing computer implemented services using information handling systems includes persistent storage and a system control processor manager. The system control processor manager instantiates composed information handling systems using the information handling systems; monitors, using system control processors of the composed information handling systems, operation of the composed information handling systems to obtain operation information; makes a determination, based on the operation information, that the computing implemented services provided by the composed information handling systems are substandard; and in response to the determination: manages operation of the composed information handling systems to provide standards compliant computer implemented services by modifying a composition of at least one of the composed information handling systems using a system control processor of the system control processors.

  • Patent number: 11884878
    Abstract: Methods and fluids for consolidating unconsolidated particulates. An example method introduces a furfuryl alcohol-based resin treatment fluid into a wellbore; wherein the furfuryl alcohol-based resin treatment fluid is a furfuryl alcohol-based resin and a diluent. The method contacts the unconsolidated particulates within the wellbore with the furfuryl alcohol-based resin treatment fluid to produce resin-contacted unconsolidated particulates. The method further introduces a substituted amine acid treatment fluid into the wellbore after the introduction of the furfuryl alcohol-based resin treatment fluid into the wellbore; wherein the substituted amine acid treatment fluid is a substituted amine acid salt and a solvent. The method further contacts the resin-contacted unconsolidated particulates with the substituted amine acid treatment fluid.

  • Patent number: 10989033
    Abstract: A treating tube may be positionable in a wellbore to create a passage internal to the treating tube and a passage in an annulus between the treating tube and a wellbore casing. Fluid may be injected into a fracturing zone from above or below a pay zone adjacent to the wellbore through a first of the two passages to expand the fracturing zone downhole or uphole, respectively, into the pay zone. Additional fluid may be injected into the pay zone through the second of the two passages to control the continued expansion of the pay zone into a desired shape. As proppant is routed through the first passage and deposited into the fractures, fluid flow in the second passage may be reversed to allow fluid to flow from the pay zone to the surface of the wellbore to control the placement of the proppant in the pay zone.
