Such reading skills are substantiated to be essential for future specialists. The concept of vocational oriented foreign language reading is introduced; some aspects of teaching this type of reading to enhance the efficiency of the learning process are explored, the feasibility of using authentic, vocational oriented foreign language text and developed exercises to them in the educational process is analyzed. In the course of the study, we used the following methods: conducting a survey, testing, quantitative and qualitative analysis of the data obtained, statistic data processing. Data processing and graphical representation were carried out using computer programs SPSS 17.0 (IBM) and Microsoft Office Excel 2017. The article covers a review of experimental training vocational oriented foreign language reading, as well as the results of this work, which show that vocational oriented foreign language reading makes the process of learning to read vocational texts more effective, leads students to better grasp of material in a foreign language and allows to increase students' motivation of foreign language learning. The outcome of the experimental learning included not only improvement of the skills of future oil field specialists in reading and understanding texts, but also revealed a number of problems in the educational process. Thus, our findings have implications for further research.
