Elsevier's Oil & Gas Field Dictionary: English/American, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, and German L.Y. Chaballe, L. Masuy, and J.P. Vandenberghe
In recent years international communication on the subject of oil and gas drilling has increased substantially, and many new drilling and recovery techniques have been introduced. Consequently many new terms have been incorporated into the literature; Elsevier's Oil and Gas Field Dictionary presents these, together with already existing terms, in seven of the world's major languages. The dictionary comprises the English/American terms, their synonyms and variants listed in American spelling, followed by their equivalents in French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch and German,with a supplementary section based on the most appropriate and frequently used Arabic terms. Care has been taken to incorporate actual terms and expressions used, by gathering information from reliable scientific and technical documents such as manuals, guides, brochures, specialized glossaries and diagrams. The fact that different companies and manufacturers use varying terms to describe similar objects or operations has not been overlooked. Special attention has been devoted to important areas such as geology, drilling methods and equipment, logging, sampling, well servicing, mud engineering, offshore and permafrost conditions and preparation for shipping and monitoring; the dictionary therefore facilitates communication between those involved directly and indirectly with the development and management of energy resources. Oil companies, engineers, equipment manufacturers, students, translators and interpreters, and all those involved in the field of energy production will find this dictionary an invaluable reference tool. 684 pages.
