The document describes a dictionary of units of measurement used in the oil and gas industry, including definitions of base units like meters, seconds, kilograms, as well as derived units.

Base units described include meters for length, seconds for time, kilograms for mass, amperes for electric current, kelvin for temperature, moles for amount of substance, and candela for luminous intensity.

Common prefixes used with units include milli- for thousandths (e.g. millimeters), micro- for millionths (e.g. microseconds), kilo- for thousands (e.g. kilometers), and mega- for millions (e.g. megawatts).
