    <Name>CV</Name>
    <Description>crown valve: Also known as a swab valve. It is the uppermost valve on the vertical bore of the christmas tree above the flowing outlet, and is sometimes used as a reference point for wellbore measurements.</Description>

    <Description>kelly bushing: The point in a wellbore where the wellbore, when originally drilled, intersected the kelly bushing.</Description>
  </Value>

  <Value>
    <Name>RB</Name>
    <Description>rotary bushing: The point in a wellbore where the wellbore, when originally drilled, intersected the rotary bushing. The rotary bushing is located on the rotary table opening, and is often equivalent to the derrick floor as a basis for elevation measurements.</Description>

  <Value>
    <Name>DF</Name>
    <Description>derrick floor: The point where the wellbore intersects the platform, usually 10 feet or more above the ground, or the derrick on which drilling operations are carried on.</Description>

  <Value>
    <Name>LAT</Name>
    <Description>lowest astronomic tide: The point in a wellbore where the wellbore intersected the surface of the sea, when the sea was at its lowest recorded level.</Description>

  </Value>

  <Value>
    <Name>SL</Name>
    <Description>sea level: The point at which the wellbore intersects the mean sea level geoid. This point is generally used when sea level is used to reference wellbore measured depth measurements.</Description>
  </Value>

  <Value>
    <Name>UN</Name>
    <Description>unknown: The type of reference point is unknown.</Description>
