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:
“The working woman may be quick to see any problems with children as her fault because she isn’t as available to them. However, the fact that she is employed is rarely central to the conflict. And overall, studies show, being employed doesn’t have negative effects on children; carefully done research consistently makes this clear.”
—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)
