Research of New Drilling Technologies
Research includes technologies based on the utilization of water jet, chemical plasma, hydrothermal spallation or laser.
Utilization of high energetic electrical plasma shows promise in deep drilling applications. This approach has potential to replace conventional drilling technologies. It would be able to produce boreholes with large constant diameter without frequent replacement of the drill bits.

Famous quotes containing the words research and/or drilling:
“One of the most important findings to come out of our research is that being where you want to be is good for you. We found a very strong correlation between preferring the role you are in and well-being. The homemaker who is at home because she likes that “job,” because it meets her own desires and needs, tends to feel good about her life. The woman at work who wants to be there also rates high in well-being.”
—Grace Baruch (20th century)
“Don’t spend your time in drilling soldiers, who may turn out hirelings after all, but give to undrilled peasantry a country to fight for.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
