Patents by Inventor Soni O. Oyekan
Soni O. Oyekan has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
Low coke reforming
Patent number: 9371493
Abstract: This process operates a continuous catalyst regeneration (CCR) system for reforming comprising the steps of: (a) introducing a coking additive selected from the group consisting of organo sulfur, organo nitrogen and oxygenate compounds into a hydrocarbon feedstock; (b) continuously introducing the hydrocarbon feedstock and coking additive of step (a) into a CCR reforming unit; (c) continuously introducing hydrogen into the CCR reforming unit; (d) continuously operating the CCR reforming unit to produce coke and a hydrocarbon rich, hydrocarbon stream; (e) continuously operating the CCR reforming unit to burn off excess coking additive; and (f) continuously recovering the hydrocarbon rich hydrocarbon stream.
Type: Grant
Filed: November 20, 2012
Date of Patent: June 21, 2016
Assignee: Marathon Petroleum Company LP
Inventor: Soni O. Oyekan
Mixed additives low coke reforming
Patent number: 9371494
Abstract: Optimizing low coke naphtha reforming continues to pose significant challenges for oil refining companies in the operation of continuous catalytic regenerative reforming units for economic production of hydrogen, LPG and reformate. A novel processing scheme is hereby disclosed wherein multiple additives are used to increase spent catalyst coke to ensure operating the regenerators in steady state white burn operations. In previous disclosures novel additives sulfur and kerosene were identified as separately imparting enhanced rates of coke formation on the catalysts even at very mild severity catalytic reforming operations. To further accelerate spent catalyst coke formation and derive benefits from synergistic use of sulfur and kerosene, it is suggested that both sulfur and kerosene be used as additives in combination or in series with sulfur added first followed by kerosene and vice versa.
Type: Grant
Filed: November 20, 2012
Date of Patent: June 21, 2016
Assignee: Marathon Petroleum Company LP
Inventors: Soni O. Oyekan, Michael G. Robicheaux
Feed additives for CCR reforming
Patent number: 8778823
Abstract: The process involves the use of specifically selected coke precursor compounds from the front end of oil distillate fractions that contain C11 to C14 hydrocarbons and their use as additives in the processing of naphtha in a catalytic reformer. The C11 to C14 compounds additives enhance coke make in continuous catalytic regeneration (CCR) reformers to levels higher than those which are usually produced in low coke naphtha reforming operations. With the increase of ethanol blending in gasoline and low reformate octane severity operations, reformers do not produce the necessary amount of coke to permit sustaining steady state white burn operations.
Type: Grant
Filed: November 20, 2012
Date of Patent: July 15, 2014
Assignee: Marathon Petroleum Company LP
Inventors: Soni O. Oyekan, Kenneth D. Rhodes, Nicholas K. Newlon
Activation of platinum containing reforming catalysts
Patent number: 4539307
Abstract: A metal catalyst preferably comprised of a platinum/rhenium metal combination, supported on alumina is activated for the reforming of hydrocarbon feedstock, by being contacted with an oxygen-containing gas at a temperature sufficient to oxidize the metal catalyst and then being reduced sequentially by contacting the catalyst with a stream of hydrogen at about 650.degree. to about 750.degree. F. for a first period of time and then at about 900.degree. to about 1000.degree. F. for a second period of time, followed by sulfiding of the sequentially reduced catalyst. The sequential reduction procedure increases the selectivity of the reforming catalyst and results in increased C.sub.5.sup.+ liquid product yields.
Type: Grant
Filed: March 12, 1984
Date of Patent: September 3, 1985
Assignee: Engelhard Corporation
Inventor: Soni O. Oyekan
Catalytic reforming process
Patent number: 4436612
Abstract: A process wherein, in a series of reforming zones, or reactors, each of which contains a bed, or beds of catalyst, the catalyst in the leading reforming zones is constituted of supported platinum and a relatively low concentration of rhenium, and the catalyst in the last reforming zone, or reactor of the series, is constituted of platinum and a relatively high concentration of rhenium. The amount of rhenium relative to the platinum in the last reforming zone, or reactor is present in an atomic or weight ratio of rhenium:platinum of at least about 1.5:1; preferably at least about 2:1, and more preferably ranges from about 2:1 to about 3:1. The beds of catalyst are contacted with a hydrocarbon or naphtha feed, and hydrogen, at reforming conditions to produce a hydrocarbon, or naphtha product of improved octane, and the product is withdrawn.
Type: Grant
Filed: April 6, 1983
Date of Patent: March 13, 1984
Assignee: Exxon Research and Engineering Co.
Inventors: Soni O. Oyekan, George A. Swan

Our focus as an oil and energy services company is on the supply of cost-efficient spare parts and equipment to power companies, heavy industries, and oil and gas plants in Nigeria.

At the same time, we are steadily developing a reputation in the area of equipment maintenance. Our company has executed several demanding fabrication projects. We have even been willing to take on the challenge of complex Instrumentation and Control (I & C) repair work, employing our capabilities to twin the talents of local engineers with the experience of their foreign counterparts, either by the use of "hotline" (over-the-phone) consultations or by making the arrangements for these experts to come to Nigeria in person.

http://www.africatopsuccess.com/en/2014/07/09/ cyprian-emeka-uzoh-the-nigerian-of-more-than-160-patents- holder-in-the-world/






He is considered as a genius of the computing because he revolutionized the technology world through its inventions. Of Nigerian origin, Cyprian Uzoh holds more than 126 patents delivered in the United States and more than 160 worldwide in the semiconductors technology. He also co- wrote more than 35 publications. And his exploits were worth to him many awards on the international scale. In 2006, he was appointed “inventor of the year” for the patent on the “Manufacturing process of an electrolytic interconnection structures on a chip of integrated circuit” (USPTO 6.709.562). USPTO 6.709.562 is one of the most important patents in the science and technology of semiconductors field. Cyprian Emeka Uzoh is said to be the main pioneer of the modern technologies of copper interconnection of high performance. He is the one who discovered, developed and applied in team, the various elements and the critical technologies that drove to the successful implementation of the technology of copper interconnection at IBM Corporation and also in all the semiconductor industry. This technology allowed the introduction of the copper in the manufacturing of chips, what was a revolution. The discovery of the galvanoplasty technology in this industry is also to be put to the credit of Cyprian Emeka Uzoh. Let us remind that IBM put this technology into production at the end of the 1990s and represents today the main method of cabling device using electric fields and metal muds to polish metals with low pressures.

Cybernetics International Services Limited was incorporated in 1992 to engage in Oil and Gas trading activities. Between 1996 and 1999, the company leased a petrol station in Delta State, Nigeria and operated as an independent marketer of petroleum products on retail basis. It exited that business in 1999 on relinquishing the petrol station to its owner.

Between year 2000 and 2004, the company engaged in the supply of various types of spare parts and equipment to the major oil producing companies in the upstream sector of the Oil and Gas industry in Nigeria. Included amongst such companies are Chevron, Mobil, Agip, and Total.

Upon the decision of the oil producing companies to only patronize supply companies that have agency relationships with equipment manufacturers overseas, Cybernetics in 2004, in partnership with Multinational Expertise Limited – owned by Late Chief Aret Adams (former Group Managing Director of NNPC and also former Special Adviser to the President on Energy), signed an agreement with Craig Energy Services – a Scottish trading conglomerate to form a Joint Venture Company in Nigeria called Multinational Craig Services – (MCES). The Craig Group had been Cybernetic’s main supplier of equipment, etc since 2000.

MCES is now leveraging on the Craig Group’s global franchise agreements with major multinational equipment manufacturers to service the supply needs in the Oil and Gas industry in Nigeria. Dr. Imo Itsueli, Chairman of Cadbury Nig Limited, former Chairman of NNPC, and owner and founder of Dubri Oil Producing Company is the current chairman of the company.

Upon signing the JV Agreement in 2004, Cybernetics exited the supply business to the Oil and Gas industry in obedience to the non-competitive clause in the JV agreement with the Craig Group of Aberdeen. Cybernetics is the major shareholder in MCES Nig Ltd located on the 8th Floor of Octagon building, Victoria Island, Lagos.

On 30th November 2005, Cybernetics acquired a 10,000 Metric ton Bitumen Tank Farm facility located in Oghara, Delta State, Nigeria from Mobil Nigeria Limited.
The rehabilitation of the tank farm commenced in January 2006 and was concluded in July 2006. Trading in Bitumen, at Cybernetics’ Tank Farm, commenced in August 2006.
Currently, Cybernetics trades in Bitumen LPFO, and AGO. However, we intend to sell lubricants, Domestic Gas, Asphalt, and Bitumen Cut Back in the nearest future.

Is it because Enyimba is not owned or located in Afonja land?
Enyimba is the true spirit of Ndigbo in Africa..

If u think Football or clubs are not a profitable venture of repute, u should consult Barcelona, Manchester United, Real Madrid and Al Ahly of Egypt..


Neymar earns more money than individual earnings of 98% Afonja.

In Football, we are conspicuously dominating it from local leagues to national league.

OCE Filter Manufacturing Industries Ltd. Is equipped with the most modern technology for the production of high quality filter comparable to any of its kind in Europe, Japan, China and America. This high Tech machines require high expertise. It is in realization of this that the company initially teamed up with foreign experts in order to improve the intellectual and dexterous capabilities of its local staff, to maintain quality control and technical leadership hence-Transfer of Technology.The company is now fully operated by Nigerians.

“OCE” Filter which is our trademark is manufactured from the best materials available and it conforms to international standards. The Filter paper in OCE oil filter presents slight resistance to the flow of lubricating oil and easily traps all dirts and impurities going into the engine. Likewise, OCE fuel and gas filters are designed to effectively trap sediments and contaminants in fuel up to particles size of two microns.

Furthermore, all engine including generator and industrial equipment need atmospheric oxygen for internal combustion. But atmospheric air is full of dirts and other impurities. Therefore, OCE air filter is designed to trap these dirts and impurities while allowing atmospheric Oxygen to pass into the engine for necessary internal combustion.

Our filters are reliable and this is a testimony to our tradition of quality control and uncompromising standards. This made Standard Organization of Nigeria to award us the prestigious Nigerian industrial Standard consisting bronze Silver and Gold consecutively for the past 15 years. So, when you use OCE oil, fuel gas, air and hydraulic / transmission filter you are using a set of highly reliable products.





This is the reason we want our dear distinct country..

games and was top scorer in the new I-League. Odafa was the
all-time leading scorer in the I-League after three seasons and

played in India. He was also the former captain of Churchill
Brothers.

Afonja no go kill me ooo! What they do is to copy our posts and post them in their thread..

They would be Afonjarizing on it....when they become appalled, they say it's no match to their Afonja's accomplishments..


Someone was even asking who is Chioma Ajunwa -,The first Nigerian gold medalist in Olympics..

This people are no match to us...

Tell me any field Afonja is even close to Ndigbo..

Can any woman from Afonja kingdom be compared to Arunma Oteh, Ngozi Okonjo, Oby Ezekwesili, Sandie Okoro or Joy Ogwu?

When it comes to Oil and gas in Africa, Arthur Eze has the largest number of Oil fields and blocks and his companies cover over 10 different countries..

The most powerful woman in Oil and gas in Africa is Uju Ifejika..

Which Area?

Science?
Technology?
Literature?
Sports?

Nollywood?

In fact, Sports have displaced some industries in terms of revenue and profits.

I'm waiting!

In sports alone, it is made in Igbo...

I can list thousands of Sports people of Igbo origin from Texas alone.


We are far ahead..

Surely, they are not close to us
