Record 3 2012-02-15

English

Subject field(s)
  • Equipment (Oil and Natural Gas Extraction)
DEF

An extension of pipe from the blowout-preventer assembly, used to direct well fluids from the annulus to the choke manifold.

CONT

In the event of high pressure kick with the drill string in the hole the blowout preventer is closed around the drill pipe and the mud is circulated down the drill string and back to the mud tanks through the choke line and back-pressure manifold.

OBS

choke: An orifice installed in a line to restrict the flow or control the rate of production.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Outillage (Extraction du pétrole et du gaz)
CONT

L'exploitant veille à ce que le bloc d’obturation [...] comprenne [...] une ligne de duse partant de chaque croix de circulation et équipée d’une vanne située à proximité du bloc d’obturation [...]

Record 4 2010-04-21

English

Subject field(s)
  • Oil Drilling

French

Domaine(s)
  • Forage des puits de pétrole
DEF

Étranglement, servant le plus souvent au réglage de la production d’un puits éruptif.

OBS

Traduction proposée :duse(substantif), duser(verbe).

OBS

Le mot duse est d’origine allemande. Le verbe «duser» avec le sens d’étrangler(un courant fluide), de freiner, en a été dérivé par les techniciens. Le Comité propose d’adopter tel quel le mot «duse» à aspect français, ainsi que le verbe duser.
