  2. Soil formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_formation

    Soil formation, also known as pedogenesis, is the process of soil genesis as regulated by the effects of place, environment, and history. Biogeochemical processes act to both create and destroy order ( anisotropy ) within soils.

  3. Formation evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formation_evaluation

    Induction tools therefore give best results when mud resistivity is high with respect to formation resistivity, i.e., fresh mud or non-conductive fluid. In oil-base mud, which is non conductive, induction logging is the only option available. Until the late 1950s electric logs, mud logs and sample logs comprised most of the oilman's armamentarium.

  4. C1 Advanced - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C1_Advanced

    C1 Advanced looks to prove high-level achievement in English and is designed for learners preparing for university or professional life. It focuses on Level C1 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). [1] C1 Advanced is one of the examinations in Cambridge English Qualifications. Each Cambridge English Qualification ...

  5. Basic sediment and water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_sediment_and_water

    Basic sediment and water (BS&W) is both a technical specification of certain impurities in crude oil and the method for measuring it. When extracted from an oil reservoir, the crude oil will contain some amount of water and suspended solids from the reservoir formation. The particulate matter is known as sediment or mud.

  6. Adsorbable organic halides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adsorbable_organic_halides

    Adsorbable organic halides (AOX) is a measure of the organic halogen load at a sampling site such as soil from a land fill, water, or sewage waste. [1] The procedure measures chlorine, bromine, and iodine as equivalent halogens, but does not measure fluorine levels in the sample.

  7. Oil analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_analysis

    Oil sampling is a procedure for collecting a volume of fluid from lubricated or hydraulic machinery for the purpose of oil analysis. Much like collecting forensic evidence at a crime scene, when collecting an oil sample, it is important to ensure that procedures are used to minimize disturbance of the sample during and after the sampling process.

  8. Drill stem test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_stem_test

    A drill stem test (DST) is a procedure for isolating and testing the pressure, permeability and productive capacity of a geological formation during the drilling of a well. The test is an important measurement of pressure behaviour at the drill stem and is a valuable way of obtaining information on the formation fluid and establishing whether a ...

  9. Hydrogen isotope biogeochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_isotope...

    The formation of oil involves breaking C-C and C-H bonds, resulting in depletion of 13 C and 2 H in the products and enrichment in the residual reactants due to KIEs. Yongchun Tang and his colleagues modeled this process based on laboratory-calibrated kinetics data and found that the frequency factor ratio for D/H is 1.07. [ 239 ]
