MODULAR WELL CELLAR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240026674 titled 'MODULAR WELL CELLAR

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a modular well cellar system that consists of a planar base member with an aperture for a conductor pipe, end members to support lateral walls, side members to support longitudinal walls, and seals between the base member and the other components.

  • The system includes a planar base member with an aperture for a conductor pipe.
  • A first end member is secured to the base member and supports a lateral wall of the well cellar excavation.
  • A first side member is secured to the base member, the first end member, and the second end member, and supports a longitudinal wall of the well cellar excavation.
  • A second side member is secured to the planar base member and the first end member, supporting another longitudinal wall of the well cellar excavation.
  • Seals are formed between the top surface of the base member and each of the end member and side members.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Oil and gas industry: The modular well cellar system can be used in the construction of well cellars for drilling and extracting oil and gas.
  • Construction industry: The system can be utilized in the construction of underground structures or basements.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Simplified construction: The modular system provides an efficient and simplified method for constructing well cellars or underground structures.
  • Enhanced stability: The system's design ensures stability and support for the excavation walls.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Modular and adaptable: The system can be easily assembled and disassembled, allowing for flexibility in design and modification.
  • Cost-effective: The modular components reduce construction time and costs compared to traditional methods.
  • Improved safety: The system's stability and support features enhance safety during construction and operation.


Original Abstract Submitted

a modular well cellar system can include a planar base member defining an aperture sized to receive a conductor pipe; a first end member secured to the base member and configured to support a first lateral wall of the well cellar excavation; a first side member secured to the base member, the first end member, and the second end member, and configured to support a first longitudinal wall of the well cellar excavation; a second side member secured to the planar base member and the first end member and configured to support a second longitudinal wall of the well cellar excavation; and a seal formed between a top surface of the planar base member and each of the first end member, the first side member, and the second side member.
