International Classification:

E21B 17/01
E21B 43/00

US Classification:

166345, 166369

Abstract:

A free-standing riser system connects a subsea source to a surface structure. The system includes a concentric free-standing riser comprising inner and outer risers defining an annulus there between. A lower end of the riser is fluidly coupled to the subsea source through a lower riser assembly (LRA) and one or more subsea flexible conduits. An upper end of the riser is connected to a buoyancy assembly and the surface structure through an upper riser assembly (URA) and one or more upper flexible conduits, the riser also mechanically connected to a buoyancy assembly that applies upward tension to the riser. The riser may be insulated for flow assurance, either by a flow assurance fluid in the annulus, insulation of the outside of the outer riser, or both. The system may include a hydrate inhibition system and/or a subsea dispersant system. The surface structure may be dynamically positioned.

International Classification:

E21B 43/16

US Classification:

166345

Abstract:

A system for transferring fluids from a free-standing riser to a surface vessel comprises a first valve assembly including a first valve spool and a first isolation valve configured to control the flow of fluids through the first valve spool. In addition, the system comprises a second valve assembly releasably coupled to the first valve assembly with a hydraulically actuated connector. The second valve assembly includes a second valve spool and a second isolation valve configured to control the flow of fluids through the second valve spool. Further, the system comprises a deployment/retrieval rigging coupled to the first valve assembly and configured to suspend the first valve assembly and the second valve assembly from the surface vessel. Each isolation valve has an open position allowing fluid flow therethrough and a closed position restricting fluid flow therethrough, and each isolation valve is biased to the closed position.

International Classification:

E21B 43/013

US Classification:

166345

Abstract:

A lower riser assembly connects a riser to a seabed mooring and to a subsea hydrocarbon fluid source. The assembly includes sufficient intake ports to accommodate flow of hydrocarbons from the hydrocarbon fluid source, as well as optional flow assurance fluid. The upper end of the member has a profile suitable for fluidly connecting to the riser. The lower end of the member includes a connector suitable for connecting to the seabed mooring. An upper riser assembly connects the riser to a near-surface subsea buoyancy device and to a surface structure. The assembly includes sufficient outtake ports to accommodate flow of hydrocarbons from the riser through a subsea flexible conduit to the surface structure. The upper end of the member includes a connector for connecting to a subsea buoyancy device. The lower end of the member comprises a profile suitable for fluidly connecting to the riser.

Inventors:

Chau NGUYEN - Houston TX, US

International Classification:

A41G 5/02
A45D 2/48
A45D 2/00

Abstract:

A method for a cosmetologist to apply eyelash extensions onto natural eyelashes a person may include visually identifying a target eyelash through a magnifying glass. The target eyelash may be a natural eyelash of the person having multiple rows of natural eyelashes. The method may include gripping an eyelash extension with an eyelash manipulation tool, and attaching a top surface of the eyelash extension onto a bottom surface of the target eyelash using the eyelash manipulation tool. An eyelash application kit may be used during implementation of the method. The eyelash application kit may include an eyelash isolation tool including a ring and a prong mechanically coupled with and extending from the ring. The eyelash application kit may also include a magnifying tool including a head fitting and a magnifying glass mechanically coupled with the head fitting. The eyelash application kit may include an eyelash straightener and curler, which may be heated.
