There are provided high power laser perforating tools and methods of delivering laser energy patterns that enhance the flow of energy sources, such as hydrocarbons, from a formation into a production tubing or collection system. These tools and methods precisely deliver predetermined laser beam energy patterns, to provide for custom geometries in a formation. The patterns and geometries are tailored and customized to the particular geological and structural features of a formation and reservoir.

High power laser perforating and laser fracturing tools and methods of use

Exemplary magnetic hyperthermia treatment systems and methods involve placing a conducting particle having a diameter of 500 microns within a tumor of a patient; and heating the conducting particle with an oscillating magnetic field. In some cases, the particle has a diameter or dimension with a value within a range of about 20 microns to about 1000 microns. In some cases, particle has a diameter or dimension with a value that is greater than 1000 microns.

Magnetic hyperthermia treatment systems and methods

There are provided high power laser systems for performing decommissioning of structures in land based boreholes, and wells, offshore, and other remote and hazardous locations, and using those system to perform decommissioning operations. In particular embodiments the laser system is a Class I system and reduces emission of materials created during laser cutting operations. The laser systems can include lifting and removal equipment for removing laser sectioned material.

Systems for surface decommissioning of wells

There are provided high power laser and laser mechanical earth removing equipment, and operations using laser cutting tools having stand off distances.
