You use many abbreviations specific to O&G, eg

cCLTopShotDistance rdf:type owl:DatatypeProperty ;
	rdfs:comment "Distance from CCL to Interval Top " ;

An internet search indicates this is "casing collar location" (or maybe "locator"?). IMHO it would be better to spell it out in full: casingCollarLocationToTopShotDistance.

In another case casingCollarLocatorMD you spell out "CCL" (which is inconsistent with the previous case), but abbreviate "measured depth". IMHO it would be better to spell it out in full: casingCollarLocatorMeasuredDepth.

Hi Vladimir - in large part, we stick exactly to the acronyms, naming conventions, and descriptions provided for usage in the OSDU 3.0.0 schema. It would potentially be better to be more descriptive where possible, but we keep acronym usage the same to maximize exact matches for users trying to map relational OSDU data using this ontology.

I see what you mean, I found them at

However, semantic modeling is largely about explicating the meaning of things.
So perhaps you can use the full spellings in rdfs:label to make things more clear?

cCLTopShotDistance rdf:type owl:DatatypeProperty ;
  rdfs:label "Casing Collar Locator To Top Shot Distance";
  rdfs:comment "Distance from CCL to Interval Top " ;
``

That is a good idea, I'll mark this as a desired fix and get to it when possible
