Spanish term

oprima utilización

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general)
From Ecuadorean regulations governing Petroecuador:

"...tiene por objetivo el desarrollo de las actividades [...] orientado a la oprima utilización de los Hidrocarburos..."

At first, I thought that "oprima" was a mistake/typo. But now I'm not sure. For me, "oprima" means "press", as in "oprimir", but that obviously doesn't make sense in this context.

I agree it's a typo; however, I believe the translation would be "ideal."

neutral philgoddard : what's wrong with optimum?

"optimum" would work also; however, what you wrote was "optima", possibly because you were thinking of the typo.
