Summary of the patent applications from SAUDI ARABIAN OIL COMPANY on October 5th, 2023

Saudi Arabian Oil Company (Saudi Aramco) has recently filed several patents related to machine learning, data analysis, and oilfield technology. These patents demonstrate the company's focus on utilizing advanced technologies to improve oil and gas operations.

Summary of Recent Patents:

- A machine-learning system for creating prediction models based on input data. The system includes modules for model verification and decision-making based on the reliability of the prediction models. - A method for predicting wireline caliper log data using logging-while-drilling data. The method involves pre-processing and selecting relevant logs, training a machine-learned model to predict aggregate logs from logging-while-drilling data, and using the trained model to predict aggregate logs. - A computer-based method for securing information in control centers. The method involves identifying user security permissions based on an image, comparing these permissions to security thresholds, and displaying or suppressing information accordingly. - A method for estimating the depth profile of a weathering layer in a subterranean formation using gravity survey data. The method involves generating an equivalent source density profile, calculating the difference between the survey data and the equivalent source gravity response to determine the weathering layer gravity response, and generating a modeled weathering layer depth profile based on this response. - An apparatus with electrical input ports, a trigger output port, and a synchronization check relay for controlling electrical signals. - A microfluidic channel with a micro-protrusion baffle made of cyclic olefin copolymer for detecting the presence of hydrocarbon fuel in lubrication oil. - Computer-implemented methods for identifying reservoir fluid using temperature transient analysis. The method involves analyzing pressure and temperature data from wellbore formation testing to determine the type of formation fluid without fluid sampling. - A system for analyzing multiphase production fluids using fluidic separation chambers and sensing modules to detect the height of an oil phase column. - A method for predicting the blowdown rate of boilers based on input temperatures, gas feed rates, and boiler outputs. - A system and method for controlling an electrical submersible pump (ESP) in a well. The system includes a processor and computer-readable instructions for determining a target well rate, modifying the operating characteristic of the ESP based on operational data and target efficiency.
