processes  are  described  in  various  fields  of  science  and  technology  (system,
                  question,  meaning,  mark). One of the  features of the  use of  general oil and  gas


                  words is their multiple repetition in a narrow context.
                         A term is a word or phrase that explicitly and unambiguously calls a subject,


                  a  phenomenon  or  a  concept  of  science  and  reveals  its  meaning.  The  term  is  a
                  logical information of a large volume. In the explanatory dictionaries the terms are


                  accompanied by the word "special".

                         Morphological features of scientific style:

                         - predominance of nouns;

                         - widespread abstract nouns (time, phenomenon, state);

                         - use in the plural of nouns that do not have the usual form of plural (cost);

                         - the use of singular nouns for generalized concepts (birch, acid);

                         - the use of almost exclusively forms of the present time in timeless sense,

                  indicates the constant nature of the process (highlighted, advancing).

                         There are three varieties (under the style) of scientific style:

                         - actually scientific;

                         - scientific and educational;

                         - popular science.

                         Within the limits of the actual scientific subtext, such genres as monograph,

                  dissertation, report, and others are allocated. Subtext differs in general with a strict,

                  academic  manner  of  presentation.  It  combines  scientific  literature,  written  by

                  experts and intended for specialists. This subtext is opposed to the popular science

                  substrate.  His  function  is  to  promote  oil  and  gas  information.  Here  the  author-

                  specialist  turns  to  a  reader  who  is  not  acquainted  enough  with  this  science,

                  therefore the information is presented in accessible, and often - in an interesting

                  form.

                         The peculiarity of the popular science subtext  is the combination  of polar

                  stylistic  features  in  it:  logic  and  emotionality,  objectivity  and  subjectivity,

                  abstraction and concreteness. In contrast to oil and gas prose in the popular science

                  literature,  there  are  considerably  less  special  terms  and  other  proper  scientific
