Oil and Gas Translation Services

Dubai and the UAE are key players in the global oil and gas industry, requiring accurate and reliable translation for technical, commercial, and regulatory communication. Since 1996, Communication Legal Translation Est. (CLT) has been providing professional Oil and Gas Translation Services in Dubai and across the UAE, supporting energy companies, EPC contractors, operators, consultants, suppliers, and multinational corporations.

Oil and gas documentation often includes highly technical terminology, safety regulations, contractual clauses, and compliance requirements. Any translation error can result in operational risks, safety issues, regulatory non-compliance, or financial losses. At CLT, we provide both LEGAL oil and gas translation services (only for approved language combinations) and GENERAL (non-legal) oil and gas translation services for all other languages, depending on authority and operational requirements.

Why Oil and Gas Translation Is Important in Dubai

  • Engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) projects

Inaccurate oil and gas translation can lead to:
