In-house Desktop Publishing
and AutoCAD Facilities

Long-term technical translation projects in the oil and gas industry demand organised project management and suitably qualified technical translators.
Our work for oil and gas companies operating in the oilfields of Karachaganak (Kazakhstan) and Sakhalin Island, to name but two key projects since 1999, has enabled supplying companies to submit technical translation work that has a 94% chance of being approved first time by their project review teams.
The work we undertake in this sector includes technical AutoCAD drawings, Installation, Operation & Maintenance manuals, Bills of Materials, Declarations of Conformity and other associated technical documents.
After extremely strong competition, APT won the contract with Bechtel to supply full Russian technical translation services for a large well-known oil and gas project. |
