The rams in a BOP that seal around the pipe diameter for which they were sized.
Industry:Oil & gas
The random scattering of particles due to kinetic energy of the particles. Affected by viscosity, density and temperature.
Industry:Oil & gas
The range of gas concentration in air where the fuel gas or combustible gas will ignite.
Industry:Oil & gas
The range of wavelength energy that can be adsorbed by a given formation.
Industry:Oil & gas
The rate at which a population of radioactive atoms decays into stable daughter atoms. Rate expressed in half-life of the parent isotope.
Industry:Oil & gas
The rate at which pressure builds up after a flow period. It is related to permeability, fluid viscosity, pressure differential, hole volume, zone thickness and time.
Industry:Oil & gas
The rate at which pressure decreases at the end of an injection. Related to rock permeability, and to fracture closure stresses when above the fracture point.
Industry:Oil & gas
The rate of increase of temperature per unit of depth. Varies in the world with geothermal activity. Usually between 1.1 and 2.2+ oF/100 ft.
Industry:Oil & gas
The rate of loss of liquids to the formations from the fluid being circulated through the wellbore.
