Title: John O’Hara: Inventor in Multi-Well Fluid Flow Control.

Introduction

John O’Hara is an inventor based in Cypress, Texas, whose patent work concerns fluid-flow management in multi-well systems. His invention describes methods for monitoring flow across multiple well nodes and using that information to guide adjustments.

Latest Patents

O’Hara is associated with 1 patent: “Methods to Dynamically Control Fluid Flow in a Multi-Well System, Methods to Dynamically Provide Real-Time Status of Fluid Flow in a Multi-Well System, and Multi-Well Fluid Flow Control Systems.”

The patent describes receiving fluid-flow data from two nodes along different wells, analyzing the data, and determining how flow at one node affects flow at another. Based on that impact, the system can decide whether to adjust flow at a node, determine the adjustment, and request that a fluid-control device carry it out. The methods are intended to support dynamic control and real-time status reporting in multi-well systems.
