Abstract

A method is disclosed for establishing a separation barrier at an interface between a first environment having a fluid at a first condition and a second environment having a fluid at a second condition. A first stream (55) of a fluid is directed along a first path (45) between the first environment and the second environment and a second stream of fluid (65) is directed along a second path (75) between the first stream of fluid and the second environment. A desired parametric relationship is maintained between the first fluid stream and the second fluid stream thereby decreasing passage of fluid from either of the first and second environments to the other of the first and second environments.
