    Abstract: A method and apparatus for detecting mechanical problems in machinery used in a process. A model of the process is developed using a modeling technique such as advanced pattern recognition and the model is used to generate predicted values for a predetermined number of the operating parameters of the process and vibration parameters of the machinery. Statistical process control methods are used to determine if the difference between the predicted and actual measured values for one or more of the parameters exceeds a configured statistical limit. A rule set is used to indicate an actual or probable fault in the machinery.

    Abstract: Es wird ein intelligentes Schnittstellensystem zum Verbinden einer externen Anwendung mit einem dezentralen Steuerungssystem (DSS) bereitgestellt. Das Schnittstellensystem ist dafür geeignet, das DSS automatisch abzutasten, um seine Konfiguration festzustellen und ein Topologiemodell des DSS zu erstellen. Das Topologiemodell wird verwendet, um festzustellen, ob Daten, die aus einem Modul in dem DSS angefordert wurden, durch das Modul bereitgestellt werden können. Das Topologiemodell wird so erstellt, dass es Thread-sicher ist. Ein Drosselmechanismus in dem Schnittstellensystem schützt das DSS vor einer Überlastung durch Datenanforderungen.

    Abstract: An intelligent interface system is provided for connecting an external application to a distributed control system (DCS). The interface system is operable to automatically scan the DCS to determine its configuration and build a topology model of the DCS. The topology model is used to determine whether data requested from a module in the DCS can be provided by the module. The topology model is constructed to be thread-safe. A throttling mechanism in the interface system protects the DCS from being subjected to excessive data requests.

    Abstract: When a fossil fuel well is producing fossil fuel, lift gas injected into the well to bring the naturally occurring fluids in the well to the surface along with the fossil fuel and the plunger if the well has a plunger. An instrument is programmed to use the predetermined criteria to dynamically control the rate of injection of the lift gas into the well.

    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a modular gas chromatograph (10) having a display screen. The gas chromatograph includes an explosion-proof housing (12) and a transparent panel secured to the housing. The display screen is disposed in the housing and is visible through the transparent panel. The gas chromatograph has a plurality of modules, including a feed- through module (14) , an analytical module (16) and a display module containing the display screen. The analytical module is mounted inside the housing and includes a GC module (164) , a manifold module (162) and an electronics module (20) . The analytical module may be removed from the housing as a unit. The GC module includes a column assembly and a printed circuit board, both of which are mounted to a valve assembly. A plurality of electronic devices are mounted to the circuit board. The electronic devices include non-volatile memory, pressure sensors and detector devices.

    Abstract: A method and system operates a well having an outer casing, a tubing positioned inside the outer casing, and a plunger moveable within the tubing to periodically draw out a liquid slug. A chemical to slug size ratio is set by the operator. Thereafter, the gas flow rate is monitored and the well is shut-in when the gas flow rate drops below a predetermined threshold. After well shut-in, a calculated amount of chemical foaming agent is injected. The size of the liquid slug is calculated and then the well is opened, drawing the plunger and liquid slug up to the surface. The calculated amount of chemical foaming agent is calculated based on one or more previous liquid slug size determinations and the set chemical to slug size ratio.
