Translation Tips: How to Make Your Oil and Gas Translation a Success

ABC Language Solutions has participated in many significant projects in the Oil and Gas Industry that involved thousands and thousands of pages of various highly technical and legal documents in various formats, from patents and legal submissions to AutoCAD Drawings to Illustrator and Quark Express, to name just a few. Sakhalin, Taneco, BP, Rosneft, Yukos, and so on and on – always on time and budget!

Once, we participated in an interesting event that is characteristic of the challenges translators may have to deal with in Oil and Gas Industry. A local Communications / PR agency asked us to provide consecutive and simultaneous interpretation for what they called “several presentations about gray whales”. Of course, they did not have any background materials or texts citing various confidentiality issues. What can be difficult about gray whales after all – just google it, they said… Well, that we did, trying to find as much information as we possibly could. But nothing could prepare us to what it happened to be – a Biennial conference on grey whale migration as it related to Oil and Gas industry.

Turned out, gray whales make one of the longest annual migrations of any mammal, travelling about 10,000 miles round-trip, and in some cases upwards of 14,000 miles, visiting many countries on their way, from the USA and Canada to Russia, Japan, Korea, etc. So, what this meant was that multiple world’s leading research institutes and teams of experts had been working for 2 years (often continuing previous work of many years and even decades) on highly specialized reports and presentations – on anything from underwater corrosion to high noise levels from helicopters transporting oil spill crews affecting whale feeding patterns. Lots and lots of different presentations and reports, each summarizing 2 years of hard work by world’s leading experts. Each one with highly specialized terminology and jargon, in areas that are so narrow or new that they may not even have established dictionaries or terminology in the target language. Many written and presented by non-native speakers of English. Each addressing an audience of same-level experts expecting the same level of knowledge and terminology to be used.

Saying it was hard and almost next-to-impossible work would be an understatement. But what matters is that conference was a success, and our linguists received high praise from UN interpreters normally covering these events
