n: the US Department of the Interior, Minerals Management Service rules and regulations that must be followed by those who drill and produce oil and gas wells located in the Outer Continental Shelf.

n: 1. a derrick or crane shaped like the letter A and used to handle heavy loads. 2. an A-shaped openwork structure that is the stationary and supporting component of the mast of a jackknife rig and to which the mast is anchored when it is in an upright or drilling position. 3. the uppermost section of a standard derrick, shaped like the letter A and used as a support in lifting objects such as the crown block to the water table.

n: A kind of "A" frame gin pole, used to elevate heavy object.

particles propelled at a velocity sufficient to cause cleaning or wearing away of a surface.

n: the force in dynes that a stationary flat plate with a surface area of 1 square centimetre exerts on a similar parallel plate 1 centimetre away and moving in its own plane with a velocity of 1 centimetre per second, the space between the plates being filled with the liquid in question. It is a measure of the resistance that the liquid offers to shear. absolute error n: the difference between the result of a measurement and the true value of the measured quantity as determined by means of a suitable standard device.

n: a bottle-shaped steel cylinder located in a blowout preventer control unit to store nitrogen and hydraulic fluid under pressure (usually at 3,(XK)pounds per square inch). The fluid is used to actuate the blowout preventer stack.

the velocity of an imposed sound wave (acoustic velocity) through a rock times the density of the rock.

n: a record of the measurement of porosity, done by comparing depth to the time it takes for a sonic impulse to travel through a given length of formation. The rate of travel of the sound wave through a rock depends on the composition of the formation and the fluids it contains. Because the type of formation can be ascertained by other logs, and because sonic transit time varies with relative amounts of rock and fluid, porosity can usually be determined in this way.

n: A display of traveltime of acoustic waves versus depth in a well. The term is commonly used as a synonym for a sonic log. Some acoustic logs display velocity.

velocity of an imposed sound wave through a rock.
