GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
English term or phrase:drifting
Portuguese translation:drifting

Tech/Engineering - Petroleum Eng/Sci / Apresentação de técnicas de perfuração de poços de petróleo
English term or phrase: drifting
Contexto:
"Drifting is very important for our customers!
In the field, it is very common to lower tools such as packers which are used to seal the different zones. Due to the limited space, in many cases these tools take up all the free surface of the pipe indicated by the API standard. This free surface must be drift-tested in the plant.
This is one of the most critical processes for our clients since a tool clogging may lead to a pullout of all pipes, operation shut-down and, therefore, a millionaire loss."

Estou traduzindo DRIFT como DESVIO.
Em meus dicionários técnicos, DRIFTING é traduzido como DESLOCAMENTO, entre outras coisas.
Mas não possuo nenhum dicionário técnico da área de offshore e petróleo.
Quais seriam as traduções possíveis na área sem ser DESLOCAMENTO?

Drifting
Explanation:
Jorge, conforme dito pela Helena, essa e outras palavras tem muitos sentidos na indústria do petróleo. Neste contexto, que entendo ser o da determinação do diâmetro máximo de ferramentas evitar o clogging, as palavras drift e drifitng nao se traduzem, sendo, no contexto, o sentido de drift:

Drift – diâmetro Maximo de passagem (ver tb a 1a referencia web)

Drifting seria o ato de determinar o drift (ver 2a referencia web)

Espero ter ajudado e não complicado. Abs, Rebelo.

Determinação do diâmetro livre


Explanation:
Sug.


O Schlumberger -glossary oilfield apresenta diversas definiçõeos para o termo "drift". Eis algumas:

- (n) A term to describe the inclination from vertical of a wellbore.

- (v) To guarantee the inside diameter of a pipe or other cylindrical tool by pulling a cylinder or pipe (often called a rabbit) of known outside diameter through it. The drift diameter is the inside diameter (ID) that the pipe manufacturer guarantees per specifications. Note that the nominal inside diameter is not the same as the drift diameter but is always slightly larger. The drift diameter is used by the well planner to determine what size tools or casing strings can later be run through the casing, whereas the nominal inside diameter is used for fluid volume calculations such as mud circulating times and cement slurry placement calculations.

-(v) To pass a gauge through casing, tubulars and completion components to ensure minimum-diameter specifications are within tolerance, as described in definition 2. This task is also performed to ensure that there is no junk, dried cement, dirt, rocks or other debris inside the pipe.

- (v)
- An accurately machined device that is pulled through the casing, tubulars and completion components to ensure minimum-diameter specifications are within tolerance, as described in definition 2. While this tool is usually of a short length, the well planner may specify a special drift that either has a longer length or a nonstandard outside diameter. The large-diameter casing drifts are frequently known as "rabbits."

-rabbit
A slang term for an internal drift diameter gauge typically used to check casing or tubing joints before they are picked up and run into the wellbore. The drift diameter used depends on the size and weight of the tubular being checked.
