Arabic term

الدرافيل

Arabic to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering
No context, as this occurs in a financial statement, under assets, and is listed in an entry after "equipment and tools", and the Egyptian company in question deals with reinforced iron (rebars), construction materials, building, contracting, etc. Thanks.

darafeel sounds strange here of course:o) but the usual word used in this context is �����.
here i a link to a brochure about darfala cold rolled and hot rolled http://www.sabic.com/sabic-www/img/brochure.pdf

This cannot be "dolphins" I know that "daraafeel" mean dolphins, but how can dolphins be considered "assets" in a construction company, and listed after equipment and tools??? This term may have something to do with some Egyptian dialect, if I am not mistaken, or some technical term...
