Norwegian term

plunder og heft

Norwegian to English Tech/Engineering Petroleum Eng/Sci
Fagmannen vil ikke være på boresjefnivå, men han har evner til å innhente kunnskap om det generalle erfaringsgrunnlaget fra boresjefene på eksisterende rigger under arbeid og patent beskrivelser som viser metoder for boring samt annen relevant allment kjent kunnskap om de forhold som skaper "plunder og heft" with tilhørende forsinkelser.

extra hassle, toil and trouble Man kan vel egentlig skrive hva som helst her. Et uttrykk som helt nøyaktig tilsvarer "plunder og heft" kan jeg ikke komme på, men i databransjen brukes i alle fall "extra hassle" ofte (plunder og heft med datasystemer).

"Of course, the user can at this point make a request to change their password, but it creates extra hassle for the user because they must then either remember (or write down) a new password, or go back and change their password to what it was before."

additional hindrances

Or: additional complications, difficulties.

An idiomatic expression exists, but it seems to make for a more literary translation in English, which is not suitable for technical documents, in my opinion.

hassle and annoyance

"Hassle" by itself lacks the requisite connotation of the user's reaction in the original, in my opinion. Ordnett.no likes the addition of "annoyance", as I do.
