Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): esperantisto

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Pham Xuan Thanh Dec 31, 2012:
No need to translation as “carrying out the works” The proper order in the original text should be as “проведение геологоразведочных и геолого-поисковых работ”

So the translation could be accordingly:
Geological Prospecting and Exploration:

The complex term “Geological Prospecting and Exploration” itself has the meaning as “проведение работ” in whole. Therefore, no need to translation as “carrying out the works”. It looks more compact and expressed more naturally.

Denis Kazakov Dec 30, 2012:
To Svetlana Так и писали - activity realisation? Применительно к геологоразведочным работам?

exploration

В принципе достаточно exploration, если в тексте нет деления на этапы: сначала поисковые, потом разведочные работы. Если есть, можно сказать prospecting and exploration.

Часто (хотя и не всегда) petroleum = oil & gas.
Например, определение глоссария по запасам нефти и газа SPE:
Petroleum is a naturally occurring mixture consisting predominantly of hydrocarbons in the gaseous, liquid or solid phase.

Еще одно:
Petroleum: Term embraces the whole spectrum of hydrocarbons - gaseous, liquid and solid. In the popular sense, petroleum means Crude oil. [Chevron]
Peer comment(s):

agree esperantisto : Полностью поддерживаю: exploration само по себе вполне достаточно.
