Pertaining to cement that is not easily dispersed by a material known as a dispersant when the slurry is mixed with water containing a high concentration of salt. The term is commonly abbreviated DTDS.
Industry:Oil & gas
Pertaining to cement that is highly sensitive to the concentration of dispersant, often leading to slurry-stability problems. The term is commonly abbreviated ETD.

Pertaining to cement that is highly sensitive to the concentration of dispersant when the slurry is mixed with water containing a high concentration of salt. Overdispersion often leads to slurry-stability problems. The term is commonly abbreviated ETDS.
Industry:Oil & gas
Pertaining to being focused in one direction. An azimuthal, or azimuthally focused, measurement has one or more directions perpendicular to the surface of a logging tool from which it receives most of its signal. Examples are the density, laterolog and microresistivity logs. A nonazimuthal, or azimuthally symmetric measurement is one which measures equally in all directions around the tool. Examples are the induction, propagation resistivity log and gamma ray.
Industry:Oil & gas
Pertaining to any reservoir or wellbore treatment performed through the tubing string. Through-tubing treatments are generally associated with live-well operations, thereby causing minimal interruption to production and eliminating the need to kill the well.
Industry:Oil & gas
Pertaining to analysis that includes equations or formulae that were derived purely from data analysis and were not derived from a theoretical basis. The majority of equations used in reservoir characterization and reservoir engineering are empirical.
Industry:Oil & gas
Pertaining to analysis based on equations or formulae derived from a theoretical basis in science. The majority of equations used in reservoir characterization and reservoir engineering are empirical, but many have been derived from scientific theory.
Industry:Oil & gas
Pertaining to an environment of deposition in lakes, or an area having lakes. Because deposition of sediment in lakes can occur slowly and in relatively calm conditions, organic-rich source rocks can form in lacustrine environments.
Industry:Oil & gas
Pertaining to an environment of deposition by a river or running water. Fluvial deposits tend to be well sorted, especially in comparison with alluvial deposits, because of the relatively steady transport provided by rivers.
Industry:Oil & gas
Pertaining to an environment of deposition affected by tides, the area between high tide and low tide. Given the variation of tides and land forms from place to place, geologists describe littoral zones locally according to the fauna capable of surviving periodic exposure and submersion.
