Oil, gas and petrochemicals

Design, procurement, construction and operating documents are closely connected. The unit scope, process context, equipment names and applicable revisions need to be established so that drawings, schedules and instructions describe the same equipment consistently.

Oil, gas and petrochemicals

Language services built around your work

Design, procurement and correspondence

Scope can include process descriptions, specifications, data sheets, tender material, technical clarifications and supplier correspondence. Equipment tags, parameters, units, material grades and document references are checked separately, with queries referred to the project contact.

Operating, maintenance and safety documents

Procedures, maintenance instructions, analytical methods and safety notices must retain their conditions, sequence and limitations. Review pays particular attention to negation, exceptions, interlocks and warnings. Translation is not an engineering review, risk assessment or safety approval.

Coordinate disciplines and document batches

A document register can track units, disciplines and revision status. Core terminology is agreed before translation and review proceed in batches. Changes are marked, and delivery records identify versions, open queries and technical points requiring client review.

From the brief to usable deliverables

  1. Define the brief

    Agree the languages, readers, file formats, confidentiality terms and final approver.

  2. Prepare the references

    Review reference translations and terminology; identify missing context and open queries.

  3. Translate, review and check

    Complete the agreed linguistic work and check figures, names, completeness and context.

  4. Deliver and maintain

    Deliver the files, revision details and feedback records, with subsequent changes scoped clearly.

What to include in your brief

  • Complete originals and editable files; scans should be clear and complete.
  • Target languages, countries or regions, audience and final use.
  • Terminology, approved translations, style guidance and required formats.
  • Deadline, reviewers, confidentiality requirements and feedback process.

Project questions

Can drawings and manuals be translated in batches?

Yes. A document register, terminology and revision baseline should be agreed first. Batches can then follow disciplines and milestones, with revisions linked to the affected drawings or sections.
