SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF PRESSURE TESTING COILED TUBING
Disclosed are systems and methods for pressure testing coiled tubing (CT) in a well. A CT pressure testing device may include a CT connector for attaching to a CT segment and a pressure test housing defining a pressure chamber. A rod may extend through a top opening of the pressure test housing and through the CT connector to the severed end of the CT segment. A sealing plug coupled to a bottom end of the rod may create an interface between the CT connector and the CT segment. A force activator may apply a force to a top end of the rod, causing the rod to push the sealing plug into the CT segment and tighten the interface. A pump may pressurize the pressure chamber to perform a pressure test on the sealing plug. Accordingly, the CT pressure testing device may establish a well control barrier for the well.

Systems and methods for determining vehicle characteristics
A vehicle includes a sprung mass including a cabin coupled to a chassis, tractive assemblies each including at least one tractive element, springs coupling the tractive elements to the sprung mass, each spring imparting an upward force on the sprung mass, load sensors each configured to provide a signal indicative of the force imparted by one of the springs, and a controller operatively coupled to the load sensors. The controller is configured to determine a weight of the sprung mass using the signals from the load sensors and monitor at least one operational condition of the vehicle. The controller is configured to determine whether or not to disable determination of the weight based on the at least one operational condition.
