n: The physicist A. E. Boycott found that the blood cell deposits faster when test tube deflects, especially 40°-50°, than when test tube is vertical. The same situation will be found in the drilling fluid in the horizontal well. That is why people call this

n: the theory that minerals such as oil and gas are fully owned in place before they are extracted and reduced to possession. Despite this theory, title to oil and gas may be lost by legitimate drainage and by the rule of capture. Also called ownership in place. See rule of capture.

n: any chemical compound. one element of which is hydrogen, that dissociates in solution to produce free hydrogen ions. For example, hydrochloric acid. HCI, dissociates in water to produce hydrogen ions, H+, and chloride ions, CI-. This reaction is expressed chemically as HCI + H+ + CI- . See ion.

a reactive material with a low pH. Common oilfield mineral acids are HCl and HCl/HF.

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.

near formation area is irradiated with neutrons that transform some nuclei into isotopes. The isotopes produced can be detected by radioactive energy levels and decay time. The original elements can be described from this behavior.

n: Both ends are thick thread, used to connect joints with different thread and diameter.

n: Schlumberger wireline tool that measures phase shift and attenuation of a 1100 MHz wave. Used for Hydrocarbon identification independent of formation water salinity, thin bed detection, Hydrocarbon saturation and mobility and to evaluate invaded zones.

n: a force of attraction that causes molecules of one substance to cling to those of a different substance.

n: The force which holds together unlike molecules.

attractive forces between unlike molecules or compounds. Example – the attractive forces between water molecules and the walls of a clean glass tube are stronger than the cohesive forces;this leads to an upward turned contact or meniscus at the wall.

n: (RSPA) a DOT agency that oversees the Office of Pipeline Safety, intermodal containers, highway portable tanks, railroad cars, and anything used in interstate or international commerce not regulated by the coast guard. Under OPA, RSPA has authority over onshore oil and hazardous materials pipelines that are used in interstate commerce. Address: 400 7th Street SW;Washington, DC 20590;(202) 366-4433.
