PREFACE TO THE FIFTH EDITION
The D&D Standard Oil Abbreviator is still a viable tool used by various individuals in the energy industries. New information has been
added to this edition consistent to industry reports and writings.
New features for this edition include the full-color Michigan Stratigraphic Chart, and a fully electronic version of the D&D Abbreviator
with the addition of Stephen Gerolde’s Universal Conversion Factors
on CD.
When the need for a fifth edition was announced, members of
Desk and Derrick were asked to contribute any new changes,
additions, and deletions. As usual, the members came through. I want
to especially thank Elizabeth Dudley, Aramco Services Company;
Dee Jansen, Stratland Exploration Company; Ellen Montgomery
Coon, Great Lakes Directional Drilling; Mark Wollensack, Michigan
Basin Geological Society and The Tulsa Geological Society for their
input into this edition.
In this, the 50th anniversary of the founding of Desk & Derrick,
we are proud to still be associated with such a publication as the
D&D Standard Oil Abbreviator and proud to be a vital part of the
Energy Industry.
—Audrey M. Renegar

PREFACE TO THE FOURTH EDITION
The D&D Standard Oil Abbreviator is an indispensable tool in the oil,
gas, and energy industries. Information included in this book has made
writing tasks within energy and its related industries simpler, and has
through the years added consistency to industry reports.
The need for a fourth revision of this publication was announced
in 1991. Immediately, all members of the Desk and Derrick
Association were asked to contribute changes, additions, and/or
deletions relating to their positions. Responses came not only from
members, but also from industry businesses updating, correcting and
adding according to each circumstance.
This fourth edition contains over 11,500 abbreviations and
definitions used in energy-related industries.
Special thanks to Toni Stevens of Western Atlas International/Atlas
Wireline Services (Anchorage, AK D&D) for her help in revising that
portion of the Abbreviator; to Shirley Legaux (Lafayette, LA D&D) for
the addition of the Federal Environmental Acronyms; Cindy Whitton
(Tulsa, OK D&D), Ken Bell (Laurel, MS), Schlumberger Well Services,
Marlene Meyers (Bakersfield, CA D&D), Linda Hill (New Orleans, LA
D&D), and Linda Butler (N. Harris Montgomery County, TX D&D).
A very special thank you to Bettye Hatcher Miller (Bellaire, TX D&D)
for her continued interest and support of the D&D Abbreviator.
Company names have changed. Dresser-Atlas is now ATLAS
WIRELINE SERVICES, and Welex is now HALLIBURTON LOG
SERVICES or HAL. Some entries may be repeated within company,
miscellaneous and/or alphabetical listings; this is for the convenience of
the user. All terms are alphabetized by abbreviation and by definition. Be
sure to check the table of contents for the section most likely to contain
the information which you work with. Once you begin to use the
Abbreviator, you will find it an indispensable tool in your daily writing.
Additions to this edition include GUIDE TO FEDERAL ENVIRONMENTAL ACRONYMS, COMPUTATIONAL PRODUCTS
MNEMONICS, SERVICE NAME MNEMONICS, and LOG
HEADING NOMENCLATURE. Logging nomenclature standards

D&D fm pp i-xvi 10/5/01 2:14 PM Page vi

have not been established; therefore, abbreviations for these tools and
services are under a separate heading.
The fourth edition of the D&D Standard Oil Abbreviator is an
ongoing tribute to the oil, gas, and energy industries that continues to
develop and employ new technology and share it with the world.
Consequently, there is a need served with each new edition of the
Abbreviator—that of keeping our technical and everyday writing in
step with the times. As the overall energy industry continues to change
in order to survive, so have we of Desk and Derrick made this effort to
simplify the daily work of those in the industry.
As a convenience for engineers, draftsmen, and others using this
abbreviator, the back of the book contains standard map symbols
through the courtesy of American Petroleum Institute, mathematical
symbols, and the Greek alphabet.
The Association of Desk and Derrick Clubs hopes this book will
continue to fill a need in the energy industry, not only to assist the
secretary and the report writer, but to familiarize all newcomers with
our unique way of doing things.
In this, the 45th anniversary year of the founding of Desk and
Derrick, we are proud that we found a need and undertook to fill it—
we hope we have successfully continued that good effort.
—Jacqueline J. Brill

PREFACE TO THE THIRD EDITION
The D&D Standard Oil Abbreviator has become an indispensable
tool within the oil and gas industry. The information it contains
has made writing tasks much easier and has added uniformity.
When this revision was announced, the members of Desk and
Derrick, as usual, came through with updated information from
every aspect of the oil and gas industry. I have come to the conclusion that “we can abbreviate everything” if we put our minds to
it. This third edition contains over 10,500 abbreviations and definitions for our industry.
Two new sections have been added. Within the Logging Section
a new grouping was added for miscellaneous terms. Some are in the
other groups, but this section also contains additional terms, thus
alphabetizing all logging terms together. A new section was
added—“Pipe Coating Terminology and Definitions”—and I am
sure this will be a growing addition.
These abbreviations and terms have been mechanically alphabetized through the IBM 5520 System, which takes into account
symbols, i.e., hyphens, slashes, etc., and arranges the abbreviations
and terms accordingly. Once you use the Abbreviator, you’ll appreciate the ease of using this system.
I wish to thank all the members of D&D who made contributions
to this new edition and also those people who helped arrange this
information for publication.
My wish for this edition is to further carry on the hope of the
first D&D Standard Oil Abbreviator—to fill a need.
—Linda d’Allesandro Weatherly

PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION
The gratifying response to the first edition of the D&D Oil
Abbreviator, which carried it through three printings, seemed to
demand a second edition.
As in all undertakings, there are changes that “would be made if
we had it to do over.”
So the ladies of Desk and Derrick got behind the project a second time and submitted more data, pointed out earlier typographical errors, and suggested new features for this second edition.
This volume contains more abbreviations for words commonly
used in the oil and gas industries than its predecessor. It also
contains more abbreviations for company, association, agency, and
society names. These are separated geographically, in a sense, with
one list covering the U.S. and Canada and the second encompassing the rest of the world.
A major change is noted in the handling of logging tools and
services. Because standards have not been established, and because
abbreviations for these tools and services are rather complex, it was
decided to contain them under a separate heading.
And as a convenience for secretaries, engineers, draftsmen, and
others in the industry, the back of the book contains standard map
symbols through the courtesy of American Petroleum Institute,
mathematical symbols, and the Greek alphabet.
All in all, this second edition was designed to carry out the hope
of the first—to fill a need.

PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION
This book was developed from an idea proposed by Bettye Lynn
Hatcher, Monahans, Texas, when she was president of the
Monahans Desk and Derrick Club. She presented the idea in a
feature story in the club’s publication, “The Direct Line.”
Her story described the plight of a young secretary on her first
assignment with an oil company, trying to decipher the strangelooking language in a drilling report. With no “key” to unlock the
mystery of this language, she was completely lost.
So here is the “key”—a listing of nearly every abbreviation used
in the oil and gas industry, supplied by those most familiar with
this peculiar brand of shorthand—the members of the Association
of Desk and Derrick Clubs of North America.
Contributions came from these members in all geographical
areas and in all branches of the industry from exploration to
marketing. Every effort was made to make this first product as
complete as possible, but omissions are bound to occur. Additional
contributions were invited by The Oil and Gas Journal’s Book
Department.
For convenience, the book is divided into sections. The first two
of these are the largest and give abbreviations for words or phrases.
The first section shows the abbreviation followed by its definition.
In the second section this order is reversed.
The third section gives the American abbreviations for oil-related
companies operating in countries other than the United States.
This is followed by abbreviations for the many associations and
societies related to the oil industry.
At the outset, the reader will note that there are some abbreviations that apply to more than one word or phrase. Out of context, this seems confusing, but when used in context, these abbreviations take on a clearer meaning and are easily understood by
those familiar with the industry’s everyday language.
On the matter of style, the contributions came in assorted forms;
all capital letters, all lower-case letters, mixed caps, and lower-case,

D&D fm pp i-xvi 10/5/01 2:14 PM Page xi

etc. This is not surprising because there are no standards, to follow
yet, and each secretary is her own boss in this regard. But to
introduce some consistency, the editors adopted a style based on
simple logic: If an abbreviation is made up of the principal letters
in a word, as in bldg for building, lower-case letters are used. If an
abbreviation is made up of the first letters of several words (WOC
for waiting on cement), capital letters are used. And to make the
abbreviations as abbreviated as possible, periods are used only when
their absence could lead to confusion.
It is hoped that this book fills a need in the industry, not only to
help the secretarial side interpret the language, but to familiarize all
newcomers to the industry with our peculiar ways of doing things.

WHAT IS D&D ?
PURPOSE: The purpose of the Association shall be to promote the
education and professional development of individuals employed in
or affiliated with the petroleum, energy and allied industries.
MOTTO: Greater Knowledge, Greater Service.
MISSION STATEMENT: To enhance and foster a positive image to
the global community by promoting the contribution of the
petroleum, energy, and allied industries through education by
using all resources available.
HISTORY: A desire on the part of Inez Awty Schaeffer, Humble Oil
and Refining Company, New Orleans, to meet other women in the
Oil and Gas Industry, brought together in April, 1949 a group of
women to form the first Desk and Derrick Club. The idea quickly
spread to Jackson, Mississippi, Los Angeles, California, and
Houston, Texas. The Association held its first annual convention in
Houston, Texas in September, 1952. This history of The Association
of Desk and Derrick Clubs is exceptional in that through the highs
and lows of the petroleum industry, membership has fluctuated but
remains strong and active.
Fifty years later, we are still going strong. With the introduction
of male members in 1988, we, the men and women of ADDC,
are continually striving to serve our purpose.
The purpose of The Association is sustained through monthly
meetings of educational programs, as well as seminars and field
trips to industry work sites. Industry study courses and
publications including Fundamentals of Petroleum, Land and
Leasing, and Petroleum Geology have been developed with the
University of Texas Petroleum Extension (PETEX). CED (Continuing Education Units) are earned when courses and seminars are
presented by PETEX-certified instructors.
CONTACT: ADDC for more information at 5153 East 51st St.,
Suite 107, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74135 or call Mike Wiggins, ADO
Manager at 918-622-1749. E-Mail address is [email protected].
