Yacoub Y. Al-Abdullah has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8606551
    Abstract: Systems, program product, and methods to optimize energy management for a site including a combined steam heat and electrical power system, is provided. A system, for example, can include a computer including memory, and energy utility modeling program product stored in the memory. The system can rigorously target, without manual iteration, for multiple utility commodity targets to include their global minimum and maximum requirements or capabilities, individually, or subject to other target objectives, due to varying process conditions. The system can also obtain the supply and demand best and worst case scenarios due to varying process conditions for a given process or cluster of processes. The system can also provide such data subject to other supply and demand objectives, and can further provide a range of commodity requirements or capabilities subject to user selected values for other commodity requirements or capabilities.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20080257413
    Abstract: Systems, program product, and methods to estimate and manage flowing fluid characteristics of a fluid stream flowing through a pipeline in real-time, are provided. A system can include a vertically oriented extent of a pipeline for transporting crude oil, a pair of spaced vertically apart sensors or sensor assemblies connected to a bypass line interfaced with or positioned across the vertically oriented extent of the pipeline to obtain pressure and temperature readings of the crude oil flowing through the pipeline, a controller in communication with the pair of sensors or sensor assemblies, and crude oil analysis and management program product stored in the memory of the controller and adapted to determine or estimate density, specific gravity, and API gravity of the crude oil to thereby manage flowing fluid characteristics of the crude oil.
