  2. Mud weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mud_weight

    In the oil industry, mud weight is the density of the drilling fluid and is normally measured in pounds per gallon (lb/gal) (ppg) or pound cubic feet (pcf) . [1] In the field it is measured using a mud scale or mud balance.

  3. Pore pressure gradient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pore_pressure_gradient

    Using the figures above, we can calculate the maximum pressure at various depths in an offshore oil well. Saltwater is 0.444 psi/ft (2.5% higher than fresh water but this not general and depends on salt concentration in water) Pore pressure in the rock could be as high as 1.0 psi/ft of depth (19.25 lb/gal)

  4. Calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculator

    Made in Japan, this was also the first calculator to use an LED display, the first hand-held calculator to use a single integrated circuit (then proclaimed as a "calculator on a chip"), the Mostek MK6010, and the first electronic calculator to run off replaceable batteries. Using four AA-size cells the LE-120A measures 4.9 by 2.8 by 0.9 inches ...

  5. Grade (slope) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_(slope)

    d = run Δh = rise l = slope length α = angle of inclination. The grade (US) or gradient (UK) (also called stepth, slope, incline, mainfall, pitch or rise) of a physical feature, landform or constructed line is either the elevation angle of that surface to the horizontal or its tangent.

  6. Floating-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating-point_arithmetic

    When a number is represented in some format (such as a character string) which is not a native floating-point representation supported in a computer implementation, then it will require a conversion before it can be used in that implementation. If the number can be represented exactly in the floating-point format then the conversion is exact.

  7. Hexadecimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexadecimal

    Hexadecimal (also known as base-16 or simply hex) is a positional numeral system that represents numbers using a radix (base) of sixteen. Unlike the decimal system representing numbers using ten symbols, hexadecimal uses sixteen distinct symbols, most often the symbols "0"–"9" to represent values 0 to 9 and "A"–"F" to represent values from ten to fifteen.

  8. Carbon dioxide (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide_(data_page)

    To convert heat values to joules per mole values, multiply by 44.095 g/mol. To convert densities to moles per liter, multiply by 22.678 cm 3 mol/(L·g). Data obtained from CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics , 44th ed. pages 2560–2561, except for critical temperature line (31.1 °C) and temperatures −30 °C and below, which are taken from ...

  9. Senary - Wikipedia
