SYSTEM AND PROCESS FOR INSTALLING A HYDROCARBON PRODUCTION SYSTEM
A system for use in hydrocarbon production includes a well that has a wellhead and extends downhole into a reservoir. The wellhead has a passageway that extends through a sidewall thereof. The system includes piping extending from the wellhead at the passageway. A downhole electrical device is disposed downhole in the well. A cable is coupled to the downhole electrical device and includes electrical wires extending from the downhole electrical device, out of the wellhead, through the passageway in the sidewall, and along the piping. A cooling section is disposed along the piping through which the electrical wires pass, and an electrical connector is coupled to the electrical wires for electrical connection thereto such that the wires extend along the cooling section between electrical connector and the wellhead.
360 DEGREE COUPLING
An illustrated view of an exemplary 360-degree coupling for ease of repair and maintenance for an electrical pipe is presented. The 360-degree coupling is useful for providing a means to separate cemented electrical piping eliminating breakage of the piping. The 360-degree coupling can be used by anyone, professional or do-it-yourselfer. The 360-degree coupling is cost efficient and material efficient.
POWER SUPPLY FOR ELECTRIC UTILITY UNDERGROUND EQUIPMENT
The present disclosure uses a capacitive voltage divider to supply a voltage that can be more readily handled by main-stream semiconductor and magnetic components (generally less than 1000 volts). The divided system voltage, expected to be between 500 and 1000 volts, is then converted to a power supply voltage to be used by the measuring equipment. For safety reasons, this voltage is frequently required to be less than approximately 50 volts if it is delivered via a connectorized cable with exposed contacts.

ADJUSTABLE UNDERGROUND CONDUIT STUB-UP RACK
An adjustable conduit stub-up rack is provided, the rack comprising: structural members and sliding members, wherein at least some of the structural members are frame structural members and form a rectangular frame, wherein at least some of the structural members are vertical support structural members and at least some of the structural members are horizontal support structural members, wherein the support structural members slide relative to one another via the sliding members, and wherein the vertical structural members slide along the horizontal structural members.
PARTIAL FLOAT WEAVE FABRIC
An innerduct for a cable containing one or more strip-shaped lengths of woven textile fabric configured to create a flexible, longitudinal compartment for enveloping a cable. The woven fabric comprises a plurality warp yarns and a plurality of picks of weft yarns, the weft yarns contain a repeating first weft pattern of at least one monofilament yarn and optionally at least one single-inserted multifilament yarn. The woven fabric contains an alternating pattern containing first weave zones and partial float weave zones. The warp yarns in the first weave zone pass successively over and under each adjacent weft yarn and at least a portion of the warp yarns in the partial float zone float over some adjacent weft yarns.
