Publication number: 20100126750Abstract: A vertical cable manager includes a base, an interconnected double-spine assembly topped by a top frame, and a pair of doors. The double-spine assembly is supported by the base. Each door is removably coupled at each lower corner to the base and at each upper corner to the top frame, thus permitting each door to be opened or hinged along either of its lateral sides or removed entirely. The double-spine assembly may support selectively repositionable mounting members, which may in turn support a large cable spool, a selectively repositionable shelf-mounted handle spool assembly, and various other cable management accessories.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 28, 2010Publication date: May 27, 2010Applicant: CHATSWORTH PRODUCTS, INC.Inventors: Jose Arturo GARZA, Daniel ALANIZ, D.

Publication number: 20080264651Abstract: A technique for deploying a communication line in a tubing used in a wellbore. The communication line is positioned within the tubing which may be used to deploy a well device into a wellbore. Additionally, a reactive material is placed into the tubing. The consistency of the reactive material may be selectively changed so as to fill space between the cable and the tubing, thus providing support for the cable and/or pressure isolation along the tubing.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 6, 2007Publication date: October 30, 2008Applicant: SCHLUMBERGER TECHNOLOGY CORPORATIONInventors: Mohammad Athar Ali, Donald W.
