  3. Accomplishments for the Mud Logging Industry • Bloodhound Infrared Gas Detector and Chromatograph System • Bloodhound Hotwire Gas Detector and Chromatograph System • Interceptor Fast Fourier Infrared Gas Detection System • Low Voltage Safe DC Cavitator System • Patent Pending Software Allows for Self Correcting and Automatic Detection of Failed Sensors

  4. History of BloodhoundGas Detector & Chromatograph System • 1st Prototype in December 2005 Old Pellistor Technology • Six (6) Months Field Testing • 1stInfrared Version December 2006 • Four (4) Months Field Testing • Production Design Complete May 2007 • U.S. Patent Pending Issued December 2013 • Additional New Hotwire Like Device Deployed June 2014

  5. Bloodhound Gas Detector and Chromatograph

  6. CE Certified

  7. Typical Easy Installation in Logging Trailer

  8. Proprietary Infrared Hotwire Replacement Module (HRM)

  9. Internal Universal Power Supply • Any Bad Power Between 90 and 265 VAC • Any Bad Power Frequency 45 to 65 Hz • Easly Handles bad and dirty rig power • Internal Gel Cell Backup 2.5 Hours

  10. Automated Data System Operation • Bloodhound Connects to Server at Power Up • Data Packets transmitted every 6 Seconds to Central Server System • Triple Redundancy of Data Storage USB Memory Stick Hard Drive of connected PC File Servers at iBall Instruments Facility • File Server Creates Viewable Web Page Browser only (No Special Software) Secure Web Site

Internet) Bloodhound Instrument Mobile Device Access

  15. Server System for Over 500 Bloodhounds World-Wide • Hardened CO Site Up To Class 5 Tornado • 24/7 Wet Battery Backup For Up To 2 Days • Automatic Natural Gas Generator Backup • Three 10 Megabit Symmetrical Internet Connections

  16. A Complete Gas Detection System • Dedicated File Servers for Every Bloodhound • Triple Redundancy of Data Collected • Integral Chromatograph • H2S, O2 and CO2 Detection • Real-time Access and Download via Internet • 24/7 Product Support

  17. Real Time Data Viewer

  18. 24/7 Tech Support Center • 2009 Established 24/7 Support • World-Wide telephone & Internet Support And Service • Experienced loggers And Geologists Take Technical Support Calls • System Provides Automated Text Messaging • Bloodhound Status Through Telephone System • Rentals/Dispatch/Repairs • Remote Diagnostics Support And Service

  19. Visible Configurable Raw Chromatograph

  20. System Advantages • Uses Infrared Detectors With Very Good Longevity • Extremely Accurate And Fast Response • Minimum DRIFT And Auto-Zero Chromatograph • Unaffected by Temperature or Shock • 1% to 100% Gas Units without Saturation • Free Gas Detection Software • Free Website Interface System

  21. Infrared Detectors • Not a new idea • Earlier attempts unsuccessful • iBall Instruments Developed New Methods • Modulated light Source • New tungsten Filament Infrared Source • New Lithium TantalatePyroelectricdetector

  22. How Does It Work? • Sample gas diffused into Optical Chamber through filter • Lithium/Pyroelectricsensors provide output to patent pending software • Adjustable pulse rate 4Hz at 50% Duty • Reduces background Interference to nearly Zero • Detector signals consist of ripples superimposed on DC offset

  23. Genareal Infrared Measurement System

  24. Multiple Detectors • Reference Detector Has Minimal Filtering • Hydrocarbon Active Detector Filter Transparent to strong absorption band of gases • CO2 Active Detector Filter Only Passes absorption band Inerrant to CO2 • Allows short optical path yet maintains good resolution • Output ripple is reduced as radiation is attenuated • Built In Temperature Sensor For Temperature Compensation • Ratio differences determines level of target gas

  25. Operational Bloodhounds Found World Wide Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma, Utah, North Dakota, South Dakota, Pennsylvania, New York, Illinois, Indiana, New Mexico, Ohio, Kansas, Colorado, Kentucky, Turkey, Azerbajain, Morocco, Ukraine, South Africa, Belize, Chile, New Zealand…
