石油在世界上都是非常重要的存在，我国在石油贸易上与国外有着密切的联系，下面证件翻译公司给大家说说石油英语翻译的特点是什么?

　　Petroleum is very important in the world. China has close ties with foreign countries in oil trade. What are the characteristics of petroleum English translation?

　　1、石油英语翻译的跨学科性

　　1. Interdisciplinary nature of petroleum English translation

　　与石油相关的学科涉及石油炼制，石油化工，油气地质，勘探、测井、钻井设备，油气田开发及开采，油田化学，海洋石油技术，石油经济，计算机应用等专业领域。因此，石油英语翻译是跨化工、地质、机械、物理、数学、计算机等多领域的综合性学科，其术语也是包罗万象。常用词汇中，如属于地质学词汇的limestone reef(石灰岩礁)，sedimentary rock(沉积岩)等;所以石油英语翻译需要讲究一定的科学性。

　　The disciplines related to petroleum involve petroleum refining, petrochemical industry, petroleum geology, exploration, logging, drilling equipment, oil and gas field development and exploitation, oil field chemistry, offshore petroleum technology, petroleum economy, computer application and other professional fields. Therefore, petroleum English translation is a comprehensive subject which spans many fields, such as chemical engineering, geology, machinery, physics, mathematics, computer and so on. Its terminology is also all-encompassing. In common vocabulary, such as limestone reef (limestone reef) and sedimentary rock (sedimentary rock), which belong to geological vocabulary, petroleum English translation needs to pay attention to a certain degree of scientificity.

　　2、石油英语翻译中抽象名词的广泛使用

　　2. Extensive use of abstract nouns in petroleum English translation

　　石油英语翻译常常要通过抽象思维的逻辑性和概念化语言，来达到表述准确、简洁和逻辑谨。这些名词都是在动词基础上添加-tance，-ment，-ence，-ure，-xion，-tion，-sion等后缀构成，或形容词基础上添加后缀-bility等构成的。抽象名词可以增加文章的严肃感和庄重感，比较适合表达复杂而又精细的概念。

　　Petroleum English translation often needs to express accurately, concisely and logically through the logic of abstract thinking and conceptual language. These nouns are formed by adding suffixes such as - tance, - ment, - ence, - ure, - xion, - tion, - sion on the basis of verbs, or by adding suffixes such as - ability on the basis of adjectives. Abstract nouns can increase the seriousness and solemnity of the article, which is more suitable for expressing complex and elaborate concepts.

　　3、石油英语翻译的简洁性

　　3. Simplicity of Petroleum English Translation

　　在石油英语翻译当中，会频繁使用缩略语如OPEC(石油输出国组织)，SPE(石油工程师协会)，OIP(地下原油储量)，FVF(地层体积系数)，LPG(液化汽油气)等等。以上都是以每个词的首字母构成缩写词。在石油英语翻译里面，还有另一种缩略形式，提取单词的一部分，可以称为缩写词。比如：DPG=diphenylguanidine(二苯胍)，abs=absorption(吸收)，pr=pressure(压力)等。缩写词在石油英语中用得极其频繁，常常是重要机构名称、单位名称、常用设备等的缩写，以便提高信息交换的效率。

　　Abbreviations such as OPEC (Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries), SPE (Association of Petroleum Engineers), OIP (Underground Crude Oil Reserve), FVF (Formation Volume Factor), LPG (Liquefied Gasoline Gas) are frequently used in petroleum English translation. These are abbreviations made up of the first letters of each word. In petroleum English translation, there is another form of abbreviation, the extraction of a part of the word, can be called abbreviations. For example: DPG = diphenylguanidine (diphenylguanidine), ABS = absorption (absorption), PR = pressure (pressure) and so on. Abbreviations are frequently used in petroleum English. They are often abbreviations for the names of important organizations, units, common equipment, etc. in order to improve the efficiency of information exchange.

　　4、石油英语翻译的构词特点

　　4. Word-formation characteristics of petroleum English translation

　　石油英语翻译术语比较庞杂，难于掌握，包含着大量的派生词、复合词、混成词，同时这也是石油英语翻译词汇的构成特点。派生词是词根加上前缀或后缀组成的。通过前缀与后缀重新组合，石油英语术语获得很强的派生能力，这是石油英语翻译词汇的构词最大特点之一;而混成词这种构词法比较特殊，是将两个单词中在读音(或拼写)上比较适于叠合的部分进行组合，从而构成一个新词。在石油英语翻译术语中，较多情况下是取第一个词的前半部分与完整个第二个词组合构成的。

　　The terminology of petroleum English translation is complex and difficult to master. It contains a large number of derivatives, compound words and mixed words. At the same time, it is also the constituent feature of petroleum English translation vocabulary. Derivatives consist of roots with prefixes or suffixes. Through the recombination of prefixes and suffixes, petroleum English terminology acquires a strong derivative ability, which is one of the greatest characteristics of word formation in petroleum English translation. Mixed words, as a special word formation, combine the parts of two words that are more suitable for overlapping in pronunciation (or spelling) to form a new word. In petroleum English translation terms, the first half of the first word is usually combined with the whole second word.

　　5、石油英语的翻译策略

　　5. Translation Strategies of Petroleum English

　　石油英语翻译的策略一就是常用的直译，直译的最大优点就在于能够完整地传表达原文意义，重现原文的风格。直译是应用英语翻译中的主要方法，同样也适用于石油英语术语的翻译;策略二就是意译， 直译的方法虽然简单，却存在一定的局限性，有时采取直译可能使译文啰嗦冗长，而且晦涩难懂，更甚时不能正确传达源语言的意义。如果译者不对原文的具体情况加以考虑，却只是一味地去进行直译，则必然会走进误区，造成误译和错译。如此以来，意译法就适于用来处理构词形式比较复杂的术语了。所以，在对石油英语专业术语的翻译时，一定要把握好词义的选择。此外，石油英语术语的翻译既要符合汉语的习惯，更要符合科技词汇的规范。

　　One of the strategies of petroleum English translation is literal translation. The greatest advantage of literal translation is that it can fully convey the meaning of the original text and reproduce the style of the original text. Literal translation is the main method in applied English translation, and  it is also applicable to petroleum English terminology translation. The second strategy is free translation. Although the method of literal translation is simple, it has some limitations. Sometimes, literal translation may make the translation verbose, obscure and difficult to understand, and even can not correctly convey the meaning of the source language. If the translator does not consider the specific situation of the original text, but only blindly carries out literal translation, it will inevitably lead to misunderstandings, resulting in mistranslation and mistranslation. Thus, free translation is suitable for dealing with terminology with more complex forms of word formation. Therefore, in the translation of petroleum English terminology, we must grasp the choice of word meaning. In addition, the translation of petroleum English terms should not only conform to Chinese habits, but also conform to the norms of scientific and technological vocabulary.
