Ramey, LLP is thrilled to announce the issuance of U.S. Patent No. 12,024,978 to our client, GJR MEYER SERVICE, INC.! This patent, titled "MULTI REEL SYSTEM," marks a significant advancement in frac valve lubrication technology, prioritizing operator safety and efficiency.

This innovative patent focuses on a multi-reel system designed to lubricate multiple frac valves while minimizing operator exposure to hazardous "red zone" areas. The core of the invention lies in its sophisticated design and operational methodology:

• Minimized Red Zone Entry: The system utilizes high-flow mandrels and valves, reducing the need for operators to enter the red zone. Operators primarily enter only during initial line connections and final disconnections.
• High-Pressure Lubrication System: A high-pressure pump delivers lubricant with sufficient pressure and volume to high-pressure manifolds.
• Efficient Manifold and Reel System: The manifolds supply hose reels through strategically placed valves, enabling remote operation.
• Remote Operation: The lubricant reservoir, pump, manifolds, and hose reels are positioned outside the red zone, allowing for safe and remote lubrication.
• Selective Valve Control: When a well pad is shut down, the operator can selectively choose which frac valve to grease and command the associated manifold valve to open.

This patented multi-reel system significantly enhances safety and efficiency in frac valve lubrication. By minimizing red zone entry, it reduces the risk of operator injury. The remote operation and selective valve control streamline the lubrication process, saving time and resources.
