The oil and gas industry uses many jargons, acronyms and abbreviations. Obviously, this list is not anywhere near exhaustive or definitive, but this should be the most comprehensive list anywhere. Mostly coming from user contributions, it is contextual and is meant for indicative purposes only. It should not be relied upon for anything but general information.
For example, a person who eats approximately 2,000 calories per day should take in about 250 grams of carbohydrates (2,000 divided by 2 = 1,000 and 1,000 divided by 4 = 250).
Daily Carbohydrate Intake. Once you know your total caloric intake for the day, you can then determine your daily carbohydrate needs. Between 45 and 65 percent of your total calories should come from carbohydrates. If you require 2,550 calories in a day, then 1,148 to 1,658 of those calories should come from carbs. Because carbohydrates carry 4 calories to the gram, this translates to roughly 287 to 415 g of carbs per day.
