Abstract:

A container with a flexible spout adapted to selectively regulate the flow of liquid therefrom. The spout has a diameter appropriate for being received in an accommodating fill opening such as the oil fill opening of an automobile engine. The spout has an outer portion and a inner portion bendable about a portion of the spout located between the outer portion and inner portion. The bendable portion may be configured as an annular groove extending around the circumference of the spout. The inner portion extends from the top portion of the reservoir. The outer portion extends from the annular groove and terminates at a normally open outlet through which the oil from the container is poured into the oil fill. Threads are provided about the exterior of the outer portion of the spout adjacent the opening to threadedly receive a cap to cover the outlet and close the opening. The annular groove uniformly extends around the circumference of the spout.

International Classification:

US Classification:

169 69

Abstract:

An oil/gas separator is disclosed that can be utilized to return the burning wells in Kuwait to production. Advantageously, a crane is used to install the separator at a safe distance from the well. The gas from the well is burned off at the site, and the oil is immediately pumped into Kuwait's oil gathering system. Diverters inside the separator prevent the oil jet coming out of the well from reaching the top vents where the gas is burned. The oil falls back down, and is pumped from an annular oil catcher at the bottom of the separator, or from the concrete cellar surrounding the well.
