8099997, Jan 24, 2012
Filed:
Jul 3, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/167645
Inventors:
Jack Curr - The Woodlands TX, US
Brian Hallett - Cypress TX, US
Alan Sweeney - Houston TX, US
Assignee:
Weatherford/Lamb, Inc. - Houston TX
International Classification:
G01M 3/00
B08B 9/04
US Classification:
73 495, 4051541
Abstract:
A gelled composition for pipeline, flowline, pipeline jumper or flowline jumper dewatering or preventing ingress of seawater into open pipeline systems or components during tie-in operations of jumpers or additional pipe, valving, manifolds, subsea pipeline architecture or flow conduits operations is disclosed, where the composition includes a concentrated metal formate solution and a hydratable polymer.

Apparatus And Methods For Subsea Control System Testing

US Patent:
8430168, Apr 30, 2013
Filed:
May 19, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/468158
Inventors:
Alastair R. Goodall - Bonnyrigg, GB
Alan J Sweeney - Houston TX, US
Assignee:
Valkyrie Commissioning Services, Inc. - Houston TX
International Classification:
E21B 7/12
US Classification:
166336, 166337, 166344, 166345
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods are described for subsea control system testing including one or more of electrical, optical and fluidic conduit testing, wherein the testing is conducted subsea using a subsea testing skid. In one embodiment of the invention a subsea pipeline service skid is provided that includes at least one skid mounted pump dimensioned to deliver from about 3000 to about 20000 p. s. i. of pressure for pressure testing the fluidic conduits to desired pressures. Modular construction of the skid permits customization for testing service of unique subsea control equipment.

Method For Pipeline Conditioning

US Patent:
8505362, Aug 13, 2013
Filed:
Nov 14, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/295211
Inventors:
Alan Sweeney - Houston TX, US
Brian Hallett - San AnStonio TX, US
Assignee:
Clearwater International LLC - Houston TX
International Classification:
G01M 3/02
C23G 3/04
US Classification:
73 495
Abstract:
Method for dewatering, pressure testing, hydrotreating, suppressing methane hydrate formation and suppressing solution freezing point in pipeline operations have been disclosed, where the solution used in the operations includes an effective amount of a metal formate salt. The metal formate salt solutions have a low viscosity, have a high density, have a low metals corrosivity, are non-volatile, have a low solubility in hydrocarbons, are readily biodegradable, have a low toxicity, are non-hazardous, have a low environmental impact, have a freezing point depression property forming water/formate eutectic point mixtures, and have a water-structuring and water activity modification property.

Subsea Recovery Of Swabbing Chemicals

US Patent:
2012010, May 3, 2012
Filed:
Oct 27, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/912841
Inventors:
Alan J. Sweeney - Houston TX, US
Peter Dixon - Edinburgh, GB
Assignee:
WEATHERFORD/LAMB, INC. - Houston TX
International Classification:
F16L 55/00
G10K 11/00
B65D 88/78
US Classification:
4051841, 405210, 367141
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods are described for subsea pipeline servicing, including dewatering and chemical containment. A subsea pipeline service skid has a containment bladder affixed to the skid and in fluid communication with a skid mounted pump dimensioned to pump fluid from the subsea pipeline. A sensor system at the suction side of the pump detects the presence of seawater, water, chemical agent, or gas so the pump can be operated accordingly. The chemical agent used during dewatering operations of the pipeline is selectively pumped to the containment bladder subsea so the subsea vehicle can independently take the chemical agent to the surface.
