WATER CUT MONITORING MEANS AND METHOD (D#79,282-F) The present invention is a water cut monitor which includes a settling tank in which a quantity of fluid from a producing well is accumulated. The fluid is removed as a stream of fluid after a predetermined interval from the accumulation of the fluid by the settling tank so as to allow the accumulated fluid to separate into three phases: free w...

Method for installing a structure offshore within the shelter of a protective device and protective device designed for carrying out this method. A protective barrier (1) resting on the sea bed (2) by means of a base (6) is installed on a site (3). A passage (8) is made in the upper part of the barrier (1), to allow a floating structure (9) to enter the site (3) after the installation of the barri...

PURPOSE:To detect events at high speed by providing a transient detection circuit and an event processor in addition to a control and arithmetic processor, and detecting the occurence of an event independently of the period of arithmetic of the control and arithmetic processor. CONSTITUTION:An event processor 1 detects which event has occured according to signals SI input from sensors of various k...
