English to Thai: Tubular Goods Test Facility General field: Other Detailed field: Petroleum Eng/Sci
Source text - English An assembly area where pipe can be screwed together and taken apart multiple times to evaluate its durability. The area is also used to assess “galling” in the pipe’s connection threads. Galling describes damage to the pipe threads that prevents two pieces from fitting together correctly.
A “burst pit” to test how a connection behaves when pressure inside the pipe is high enough to cause the pipe to tear. A heavy metal slab that locks securely into position covers the pit to safely confine the failed pipe.
A pressure containment building housing a frame that can apply a load of more than 2 million pounds. It’s used to evaluate the performance of pipes under very-high-pressure fluid loads. The frame is essentially a massive hydraulic press that can push and pull on the pipe. The pushing and pulling create tension and compression that simulate what happens in operating wells.

Source text - English The power of integration
ExxonMobil considers the integration of its refining and chemical operations a key competitive advantage. “A real benefit of integrating refining and chemical facilities is the synergy of feedstocks,” explains Scott Sullivan, lent by ExxonMobil to serve as deputy general manager of the Fujian Refining & Petrochemical Company joint venture. “Refining streams are used as feedstock in the production of petrochemicals, and byproducts from the chemical facilities are returned to the refinery for conversion into high-value products such as motor fuels.
“Integration maximizes operating flexibility and captures associated cost savings,” says Sullivan. “It also allows sharing of utilities, mechanical shops, security, medical and other essential services. It’s quite an efficient operation and is typical of how ExxonMobil optimizes its refining and chemical businesses around the world.”

English to Thai: Drilling History General field: Other Detailed field: History
Source text - English Following erection of a pinewood derrick, drilling began in the summer of 1859. Challenges surfaced yet again, however, when the hole began caving in at around 16 feet. Not to be distracted from his mission, Drake seized on an idea of driving cast-iron conductor pipe down to the shale bedrock at 32 feet and continuing to drill through the pipe. It worked. Once they had reached the bedrock, drilling continued at the “blinding speed” of about 3 feet a day. Even there, the shale periodically caved in, plus the engine caught on fire, although it was salvaged and put back into service.
The gurgle heard round the world
On August 27, 1859, near the end of the workday, the drill bit slipped 6 inches beyond the bottom of the drilled hole. It had encountered a natural fracture in the bedrock. This brought the total depth to 69 ½ feet. Uncle Billy and his son, Samuel, decided to pull the drilling tools from the hole and stop for the day. Upon returning the next morning, they noticed oil was filling the well. At last, the reservoir supplying the ancient seep had been tapped.
