n: a body of air that remains for an extended period of time over a large land or sea area with uniform heating and cooling properties. The air mass will acquire characteristics (such as temperature and moisture content) of the underlying region.

n: a body designed to provide a desired reaction force when in motion relative to the surrounding air.

n: the amount of oil or gas that can be produced legally from a well. In a state using proration, this figure is established monthly by its conservation agency. See proration.

the production limit set on a specific well by a government regulatory body. Rarely seen.

n: an undersupply of oxygen reaching the tissues of the body, possibly causing permanent damage or death. Also called hypoxia.

n: 1. a body of coarse, poorly sorted sediments formed by the coalescence of alluvial or detrital fans along the flanks of a mountain range. 2. a similar body of turbidite sediments formed by the coalescence of submarine debris fans along the base of the continental slope.

n: 1. a permeable body of rock capable of yielding groundwater to wells and springs. 2. the part of a water drive reservoir that contains the water.

n: (1) water bearing strata. (2) aqueous section in water controlled reservoir.

a water containing formation that may or may not be directly connected to the hydrocarbon bearing zone. A connected aquifer may or may not offer pressure support to the pay.

the flow area generated by perforations across a zone of interest. Typical calculated perforation entrance hole areas are 1% to 6% of the pipe body. Used in pressure drop calculations.

n: a highly painful and potentially fatal condition in which air or other breathable gases come out of solution in the bloodstream and cause distress or death. So named because the bending joints of the body are most often affected. Also called decompression sickness.

the equation is used in the design of chokes and explains the manner in which pressure in the body in the body of the choke, downstream of the first pressure drop, is lower than the eventual recovery pressure at the end of the choke.
