Radio frequency electro-thrombectomy device
ActiveUS20180140354A1Reduce riskImprove adhesionSurgical instruments for heatingCross-linkPower flow
A device is designed to remove blockages in a lumen such as a thrombus, blood clot, or embolus. The device comprises a manipulating wire and a structure that can conduct electrical current to a lumen blockage. The electrical current is preferably in radio frequency (RF). The RF electric current in the blockage can excite the contents such as proteins of the blockage, so that cross-linking density and interfacial adsorption of the entire blockage is enhanced. The enhanced cross-linking density can result in increased fracture resistance of the blockage such that fracture of the blockage during the removal process is unlikely. The enhanced interfacial adsorption results in increased interfacial fracture resistance between the device and blockage so that the blockage can be securely captured during the removal process without using radially applied force.

Method for increasing fracture area
ActiveUS20130140020A1Convenient treatmentIncrease the lengthSurveyFluid removalMining engineeringHydraulic fracturing
A technique enables improvements in hydraulic fracturing treatments on heterogeneous reservoirs. Based on data obtained for a given reservoir, a fracturing treatment material is used to create complex fractures, which, while interacting with the interfaces and planes of weakness in the reservoir, develop fracture connectors, e.g. step-overs, which often grow for short distances along these planes of weakness. The technique further comprises closing or sealing at least one of the fracture connectors to enable reinitiation of fracturing from the truncated branches, and to subsequently develop additional connectors. As a result, the overall fracturing becomes more complex (more branches and more surface area per unit reservoir volume is created), which leads to an increase in the effective fracture area and improved fluid flow through the reservoir.

Method for increasing fracture penetration into target formation
InactiveUS7032671B2Reliable and goodReliable methodSurveyFluid removalFracturing fluidVertical growth
A method of propagating a fracture farther from a well-bore into an oil and / or gas-bearing zone of a target formation while inhibiting growth of the fracture into an adjacent water-bearing zone under or over the oil and / or gas-bearing zone, comprises creating a zone of increased in-situ stress a vertical distance adjacent a target interval and then creating a main fracture in the target interval by, for example, fracturing the target interval with enough fracture fluid and pressure to propagate the main fracture, inter alia, vertically to the zone of increased in-situ stress. When vertical growth of the main fracture reaches the limit set by the zone of increased stress, additional fracture fluid pumped into the target interval tends not to propagate the main fracture vertically beyond that limit and, instead, tends to propagate the main fracture more laterally and farther from the well. Such zone(s) of increased in-situ stress can be created above, below, or both above and below the target interval.
