Method for pumping foamed fluids into a well bore or subterranean formation
A method for pumping a liquid-gas mixture into a subsurface well includes introducing gas into a liquid at a first pressure to generate a mixture. The mixture is pumped through a first positive displacement pump to a second pressure greater than the first pressure. The mixture at the second pressure is pumped through at least a second positive displacement pump to a third pressure greater than the second pressure. The mixture is moved into the subsurface well at at least the third pressure.
Venturi vacuum drawback assemblies and dual orifice venturi valve assemblies
Embodiments described herein are generally directed to a venturi valve. The venture valve includes an inlet; an outlet opposite of the inlet; a passage, a primary orifice, and an insert. The passage is positioned between the inlet and the outlet and fluidly coupling the inlet to the outlet. The primary orifice is positioned between the inlet and the outlet and in fluid communication with the passage such that the primary orifice permits fluid to enter the passage. The insert is positioned between the inlet and the outlet, the insert configured to enclose at least a portion of the passage.

Pump device
A pump device is for sucking and transferring objects. The pump device includes a pump housing, at least one impeller, an air withdrawal opening, at least one inlet opening defined in the pump housing, at least one outlet opening defined in the pump housing, and at least one chive device connected to the pump device. The pump housing includes a first short side defined as a semicircle or a partial circle and a second short side defined as a flat or plane surface, two long sides having a tapered shape extending from the first short side to the second short side, and two planar sides so as to define a closed pump housing. The at least one impeller is in the pump housing.
Submersible water lifting assembly and automatic fire fighting system for unmanned platforms having said system
The technology relates to a submersible water lifting assembly and automatic fire fighting system for unmanned platforms having said system (1) that is efficient yet simple to install, energy saving, noise free and economical. The submersible water lifting assembly can comprise a High flow Ratio ejector Pump (30/30A) that utilizes under water arrangements of unmanned platform and enables the fire-fighting system to efficiently lift water from the sea water; using the force of existing water injection system; eliminating the requirement of diesel engine driven pump, for lifting the water. It avoids fire risk of the safety system itself, even in conditions of a large fire, unlike that of the prior art.
Fuel pump module
A fuel pump module which may be easily assembled and mounted in a flat bombe having a small height in an LPG vehicle, may have a structure in which a reservoir cup may be rotated and restored with respect to a plate by support bars and springs, so that the fuel pump module may be easily assembled and mounted even in a flat bombe having a small height. Furthermore, members for blocking noise and absorbing vibration are combined with a fuel pump, so noise and vibration may be reduced when the pump is operated.
NON-ELECTROMECHANICAL, PUMPLESS LIQUID RECIRCULATION SYSTEM FOR AIR-COOLED CONDENSER AND COOLER ADIABATIC PRE-COOLING SYSTEM
A non-electromechanical, pumpless liquid recirculation system for adiabatic pre-cooling and evaporative heat exchange systems featuring an ejector device including motive fluid nozzle and an annular recirculating fluid chamber surrounding the nozzle. Motive make-up liquid under pressure is expelled from the nozzle into a mixing chamber. Recirculating fluid is introduced to and entrained with the motive make-up liquid at the outlet of the nozzle, and the motive force of the make-up liquid forces the combined make-up liquid and recirculating liquid out through the outlet of the ejector device to a water distribution system for the heat exchange system.

Method and apparatus for repairing a jet pump slip joint
A jet pump slip joint repair assembly includes at least one clamp and a bushing configured to be inserted in a bore of a diffuser and to surround a portion of an inlet mixer. The clamp includes a gripping surface and a gripping collar. The bushing includes a generally cylindrical sidewall, the sidewall configured to surround the portion of the inlet mixer, a grooved flange on an upper surface of the sidewall, at least one cutout between adjacent portions of the grooved flange, and a groove on an inner, bottom surface of the sidewall. The assembly also includes a seal in the groove. The seal is flexible and formed of a metallic material. The seal is configured to be compressed when the at least one clamp engages the bushing.
