Methods (and related apparatus) include obtaining data regarding a measured property. The measured property includes an amount of each of predetermined hydrocarbons in a gas sample extracted from drilling fluid exiting a wellbore having a hydrocarbon resource. An unknown characteristic of an investigated fluid property of the hydrocarbon resource is predicted utilizing the obtained input data and one or more predetermined models each built via statistical classification and regression analysis of a preexisting database containing records. Each record includes known characteristics of fluid properties of a different one of known reservoir fluids. The fluid properties include the investigated fluid property and the measured property. The investigated fluid property includes a fluid type of the hydrocarbon resource, an amount of at least one additional hydrocarbon, gas-oil ratio, or stock tank oil density.

Abstract

Systems and methods are described for detecting multiple methane leaks at a site is provided. The method includes receiving methane concentration data from a network of methane sensors positioned at various locations within the site. The data is analyzed to identify elevated methane levels, and a multi-leak detection algorithm is applied to distinguish between multiple leak sources. Spatial distributions of methane concentrations are generated to designate potential leak regions. The method further includes estimating the locations of the leaks by identifying regions with the highest concentrations, and quantifying the uncertainty of the estimated leak locations using statistical models, such as Markov-Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. The system assigns a certainty level to each leak source and can display the leak locations and uncertainty values on a graphical interface. This method enhances methane leak detection in real-time and improves accuracy in attributing leak sources within complex industrial sites.

Geopolymer precursor compositions are presented that are useful for cementing a subterranean well, among other uses. The precursor compositions are dry mixtures that have an aluminosilicate source and an activator. The activator is an alkalinity source that is safe to store, transport, and blend with an aluminosilicate source. The activator may be a hydroxide-free activator. A geopolymer slurry is formed by adding water to the dry geopolymer precursor compositions. Such slurries have suitable characteristics for use in cementing applications that use pumpable mixtures.

Abstract

Systems and methods are described for identifying and validating a fugitive gas leak. The system identifies the onset of a leak, tracks its persistence, and subsequently, notes its gradual disappearance after repairs are initiated. The method comprises initiating an observation period which serves to characterize the behavior of the anticipated leak if it exists. Extracting the underlying distributions of the parameter space for the anticipated leak over an observation period. Data is collected over incremental steps and compared to the current reference distributions. When the test period is complete, the observation window is moved forward to include the data over the validation span. The procedure thus repeats, with an updated reference distribution and re-initialized validation period.

Abstract

Luminescent diamond is made by subjecting a volume of diamond grains to high-pressure/high-temperature conditions with or without a catalyst or pressure transfer media to cause the grains to undergo plastic deformation to produce internal vacancy defects, increasing the luminescent activity/intensity of the resulting diamond material. The luminescent material is then subjected to further treatment to create quantum dots on the surface of the diamond particles. Quantum dot formation can include placing the diamond particles in liquid and subjecting the particles to laser pulses. The consolidated diamond material may be treated to further increase luminescent activity/intensity including reducing the consolidated diamond material to diamond particles, heat treatment in vacuum, and/or air heat treatment. The resulting luminescent diamond particles display a level of luminescence intensity greater than that of conventional luminescent nanodiamond, and may be functionalized for use in biological applications.

Abstract

A first subsystem receives a gas flow comprising a first concentration of carbon dioxide. The first subsystem separates the gas flow into a rich stream and a lean stream by a first carbon capture process. The rich stream includes a second concentration of carbon dioxide greater than the first concentration. The lean stream includes a third concentration of carbon dioxide less than the first concentration. A second subsystem receives the lean stream from the first subsystem. A carbon adsorption system removes at least a portion of the carbon dioxide from the rich stream, resulting in a depleted stream. A flow separator separates the depleted stream into a stack stream and a recycling stream. A carbon desorption system releases the portion of the carbon dioxide into the recycling stream. The recycling stream is directed to mix with at least one of the gas flow or the rich stream.

Abstract

A method of operating a ground-source heat pump (502) includes generating a thermal power based on a thermal communication of the ground-source heat pump (502) with a borefield (508), the thermal power at least partly covering a thermal load of a facility. The method includes receiving a temperature associated with the borefield (508) and controlling the thermal power based on the temperature. The method further includes maintaining the temperature within a temperature ranged based on controlling the thermal power, wherein the ground-source heat pump (502) is configured to cause the temperature to fall outside of the temperature range at a full capacity of the thermal power.

Abstract

Methods and systems are provided that calculate data representing an estimate of formation strength while drilling. The methods and systems employ a drill bit that is instrumented with a first sensor and a second sensor. A processor is configured to i) determine and store first data representing cutting forces acting on a cutting element of the drill bit while drilling based on measurements of the first sensor while drilling, ii) determine and store second data representing depth of cut of the drill bit while drilling based on measurements of the second sensor while drilling, and iii) process the first data and second data to generate and store data representing contact stress against the formation while drilling. This resultant data can be used as an estimate of formation strength. This estimate of formation strength is similar to UCS and can be used in oilfield operations/planning, such as formation characterization while drilling, or drilling efficiency analysis while drilling.

The EWI includes computing a template reflection and searching potential reflections using a cross-correlation between the template reflection and the VSP data. The EWI includes a grid search used to invert the parameters for each subsurface layer below the total depth and a fine-tuning to optimize the inverted parameters based on a downhill simplex method.
