Cette ancienneté comptant pour l'avancement permet de déterminer à quelle date le militaire deviendra admissible à une promotion au grade effectif immédiatement supérieur et à fixer la date initiale d'entrée dans la zone de promotion (DEZP). (La DEZP se calcule comme suit : la date d'enrôlement, plus les congés sans solde accordés au moment de l'enrôlement, plus la période de temps requise normalement pour la promotion au grade immédiatement supérieur stipulée à l'annexe A, moins l'ancienneté comptant pour l'avancement; cette DEZP ne doit jamais être antérieure à celle de l'enrôlement [...]  1, record 2, French, - entr%C3%A9e%20dans%20la%20zone%20de%20promotion

A method of drilling past obstructions in a well, i.e. lost tools, pipe or other material blocking the hole.  3, record 3, English, - sidetracking

Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS

[Sidetracking] can be done with the use of a whipstock, a down-hole tool which forces the drill bit to drill at a slight angle from the vertical. By beginning the deviation of the hole several hundred feet around the junk in the original hole, the new hole will bypass the obstruction and may be taken on down to the pay zone.  3, record 3, English, - sidetracking

Record number: 3, Textual support number: 2 OBS

Sidetracking is also done to deepen a well or to relocate the bottom of the well in a more productive zone, which is horizontally removed from the original well.  4, record 3, English, - sidetracking

To create holes in casing and cement that is set through a productive formation. A common method of completing a well is to set casing through the oil-bearing formation and cement it at that depth. The casing is then perforated by a device lowered into the hole and fired to detonate high-powered jets or to shoot steel projectiles(bullets) through the casing and cement and into the pay zone. The formation fluids flow out of the reservoir through the perforations and into the wellbore.  1, record 6, English, - gun%2Dperforate

[...] la concavité basale est [...] due à l'accumulation. C'est que nos versants ne sont pas en profil d'équilibre. Les débris s'accumulent à la base parce que l'évacuation par le talweg ne se fait plus, et elle ne se fait plus parce que, en raison du réchauffement climatique qui a suivi la dernière glaciation, l'évaporation a diminué les débits des cours d'eau et entraîné, par là, leur impuissance à charrier ce qui se présente à eux. Dans certains cas, le cours d'eau au fond de la vallée [...] a disparu [...]; alors, les matériaux descendus du versant et dits colluviaux (tandis que ceux qu'apportent les cours d'eau sont dits alluviaux) empâtent le fond et lui donnent un profil transversal en berceau.  3, record 8, French, - accumulation%20alluviale
