  "id": "MLC-T-OAG-003001",
  "term": "Pump volumetric efficiency",
  "field": "Oil and gas",
  "definition": "The ratio of the actual fluid volume delivered by a pump to the theoretical volume it should deliver based on its displacement, expressed as a percentage. This efficiency accounts for losses due to slippage, gas interference, and other factors that reduce the effective pumping rate. It is a key indicator of pump performance and health.",
