摘要：AbstractThis paper presents an application of Vijay Bhatia's genre analysis. A move analysis and a multidimensional analysis was conducted using a compiled representative corpus; COREWIC. As a descriptive analysis, it explored the written communicative events produced by engineers in the Malaysian petroleum industry. Among the findings is the proposition of basic move-schemes used while writing the work procedures used in the corpus. The analysis conducted is highly reflective of Bhatia”s [2] model for genre analysis consisting of seven steps needed to conduct a “comprehensive investigation of any genre”. Therefore, this paper presents and discusses the application of the seven steps in Bhatia's [2] model on the genre analysis of work procedures prepared in a professional setting of petroleum industry. Bhatia”s combinational perspectives of grammatical, socio-cognitive and cultural explanation provide a fundamental ground for the analysis of the written communicative events produced in a professional setting such as the petroleum industry.
