playbackable


an oilfield term used to describe a condition that does not need to be corrected right away. for instance, a minor mistake which can be corrected later is deemed “playbackable.”

the word originated when oilfield data was kept on computer tapes, and in order to re-access the data, the tape had to be played back.
example:

terry: “i can’t believe i just spent my last $20 at the cr-ps table. too bad my bet isn’t playbackable.”

example 2:

jim: “i just computed some data with the wrong model.”
tom: “don’t worry, it’s playbackable.”
