n: the distribution of oil or gas produced from a well per unit of time. In a state using proration, this figure is established monthly by its conservation agency.

the process of determining ownership of hydrocarbons delivered to the meter or LACT unit on a lease.

n: a national trade association whose members are US and Canadian distributors of natural, manufactured, and mixed gases. AGA provides information on sales, finances, utilisation, and all phases of gas transmission and distribution. Its official publications are AGA Monthly and Operating Section Proceedings. Address: 1515 Wilson Boulevard;Arlington, VA 22209;(703) 841-8400;fax (703) 841- 8406.

an elongated lens of sand formed during distribution of sediment in a delta.

n: 1. a pipe connction around a valve or other control mechanism that is installed to permit passage of fluid through the line while adjustments or repairs are being made on the control. 2. a delivery of gas to a customer by means of a pipeline other than that customers traditional supplier. For example, delivery of gas to an end user directly off a transmission pipeline without moving the gas through the end users traditional local distribution company supplier.

n: Schlumberger wireline tool that determines cement distribution and quality from sonic response. Also measures casing thickness and so can detect damage or corrosion.

n: a station to which a transmission company delivers gas to the distribution company. This is the point at which interstate and intrastate pipelines sell and deliver gas to local distribution companies. Usually built adjacent to a natural gas transmission line in a sparsely populated area on the outskirts of a population centre. Also called city gas station, town border station.

n: a written agreement that can be enforced by law and that lists the terms under which the acts required are to be performed. A drilling contract covers such factors as the cost of drilling the well (whether by the foot or by the day),the distribution of expenses between operator and contractor, and the type of equipment to be used.

n: laboratory analysis of a core sample to determine porosity, penneability, lithology, fluid content, angle of dip, geological age, and probable productivity of the formation.

n: Refers to the analysis of core in laboratory in order to confirm porosity, permeability, fluid saturation, dip, geologic period, lithology and production capacity of formation.

lab work on a core sample that may yield permeability, porosity, pore size distribution, grain size, density, etc.

n: the injection of steam into the rock surrounding a production well to lower the viscosity of heavy oil and increase its flow into the wellbore. Steam injection may be followed by immediate production or by closing the well (called the soak phase) to allow even heat distribution before production is begun. The cycle of injection, soak, and production is repeated as long as the oil yield is profitable. Also called steam soak and huff n puff.

n: (DC) the total daily rate that seller maintains and can deliver on demand over an extended period to buyer. delivery gas n: natural gas delivered to a distribution point, such as a gas plant or a city gate. Compare redelivery gas.
