Tech/Engineering - Petroleum Eng/Sci / Oil and gas | | English term or phrase: toolstring, tail slurry, CTHA, CTLH | I need help with the translation of the above 4 terms. Context: oilwell cementing operations
Tollstring: sarta de herramientas?
I'd rather not suggest any answer to the other ones (of course, slurry is lechada), in order to not influence the answers.
Thank you for your help. |

Robert INGLEDEW (asker): 2:55am Jan 20, 2002: hay un typo... - Quise poner tool string.

Explanation:
Anyways, here's what S. de R. has to say:
rosario > Sarta, sartal.
Sarta > Retahila, rosario, recua, ristra, ringlera, sucesión, fila, letanÃa, serie, hilera, sartal, cadena.
If I had to choose, "ristra" would be the preferred one.
As for the acronyms, you got me there!
