US Patent:

7137345, Nov 21, 2006

Filed:

Jan 9, 2004

Appl. No.:

10/754769

Inventors:

Peter G. Noble - Spring TX, US
Robert A. Levine - Houston TX, US
Christopher T. Chipuk - College Station TX, US
Edward G. Stokes - Katy TX, US

Assignee:

ConocoPhillips Company - Houston TX

International Classification:

B63B 25/08

US Classification:

114 74R

Abstract:

A liquid containment system for an ocean-going vessel. The liquid containment system includes a tank having converging upper walls. The converging upper walls of the tank contain a substantial portion of the liquid therebetween and reduce the free surface area associated with the liquid. The upper converging walls of the tank extend above the horizontal deck of the vessel, but still allow sufficient deck space for supporting various required equipment. In one embodiment, the liquid containment system is a prismatic membrane tank designed to receive and hold liquefied natural gas (LNG).

International Classification:

B63B 59/00
E02D 5/60

US Classification:

114222, 405216

Abstract:

Systems and processes for controlling and/or preventing fouling of marine vessel hulls and fixed structures are disclosed. The systems and processes deliver an anti-fouling composition through a dispersing means, such as dispersion tubing, to the surface of a vessel hull or fixed structure below the water line. Also disclosed are methods of controlling the delivery of an anti-fouling composition to the surface of a vessel hull or fixed structure below the waterline, including the steps of generating signals representative of parameters such as current flow direction and speed and water temperature, to identify and control the proper volume release rate of the anti-fouling solution.

US Classification:

114227, 114174, 114201 R, 114202, 114229

Abstract:

Systems and processes for closing openings in marine vessel hulls are provided. The systems and processes facilitate repairs and maintenance of marine vessels by closing openings in the marine vessel hulls to permit dry access to compartments in communication with the openings. The processes and systems incorporate a cover constructed from a lightweight material such as fiberglass, a viscoelastic material such as polyethylene or polyurethane, and blends thereof. The cover is guided in place to effectuate closure of the opening by a track device that receives at least two of the peripheral edges of the cover and directs the cover to the proper position to close the hull opening. The cover may be lowered into place by use of a hoisting device such as a davit.

Appl. No.:

10/673743

Inventors:

Robert Levine - Sunny Isles FL, US

International Classification:

G06G007/58
G06G007/48
G09B023/28

US Classification:

703/011000, 434/262000

Abstract:

A virtual patient simulates the onset, diagnosis and treatment of all major medical conditions via a medical instructional console. The multimedia simulation, complete with video and audio, allows the patient to develop symptoms, answer questions, and undergo physical examination, monitoring, laboratory and radiological evaluation. The virtual patient responds realistically to medical interventions and visualizes medical ailments and treatments from “within”. Exemplary organs available for visualization include a beating heart, flowing blood, breathing lungs and a thinking brain. Medical conditions include clots forming and emblazing, lungs collapsing, and the heart being defibrillated. The virtual patient provides a complete human body heretofore impalpable, allowing a user to navigate throughout the human body, observing the organs in simulated motion during both normal and pathological physiology, while demonstrating the internal effects of medications and procedures on these organs.

International Classification:

C10L 1/14

US Classification:

44307

Abstract:

A fuel composition and the process of making the fuel composition are described. More specifically, a novel biomass derived low sulfur bunker fuels composition and the method of making thereof. Embodiment of the invention discloses a novel low sulfur bunker fuels composition derived from blending various bio-oil with other heavy residual fuel oils and distillates where final sulfur content and carbon intensity is controlled by the ratio of bio-oil to other heavy residual fuel oils and distillates. Embodiment of the invention also discloses a process of making a novel biomass derived low sulfur bunker fuels by blending various bio-oil with other heavy residual fuel oils and distillates.
