Drilling program

In general, if the optimal drilling programs require large drill collars, the operator should not hesitate to use them.

The Company and its consultant decided more monitoring wells were needed to better define the situation, and a new drilling program was initiated.

These represent potential vectors to mineralisation that may be applied in exploration drill programs. 

Three geochemical provinces of U and Mo were delineated in the Turpan-Hami Basin (Fig. 3). The westernmost one contains the Shihongtan large sandstone-type uranium deposit. Sandstone-type uranium deposits are characteristic by coexisting U and Mo anomalies. The east one at Hami area is was selected for follow-up exploration and a big deposit was found by drilling program.

Listed in the paragraphs that follow are the names, symbols, and usual electrical charges for 30 common positive ions, and the names and formulas for 37 common acids that are frequently mentioned in this text. You should memorize these so as to have them at instant recall the use of flash cards or other foreign-language learning aids is recommended (computer-generated drill programs also are helpful). Aside from the direct intrinsic value of these names and formulas, you can reason out from them the names and formulas of almost 50 bases and over 1600 different salts, none of which should be memorized. 

Some experimental drilling programs underway in Sweden, including a well some 5000 meters in granite bedrock, may shed further light on Gold s hypothesis.

The Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP), currently the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) of the National Science Foundation, has undertaken the most systematic evaluation of ocean hydrate deposits. The DSDP has recovered hydrate cores in the deep oceans from both coasts of the United States, from the Mid-America Trench off Guatemala, and off the coast of Peru. Atotal of 23 oceanic hydrate cores have been recovered, including the Gulf of Mexico and three Soviet...

The Mallik 2002 drilling program was conducted from December 25, 2001 until March 14, 2002, with the completion of two observation wells (3L-38 and 4L-38) drilled to 1188 m depth, coplanar with the 5L-38 main well, drilled to 1166 m. Well logs were obtained from 885 to 1151 m in 5L-38 (Collett et al., 2005). Forty-eight wireline cores were obtained (Dallimore and Collett, p. 82, 2005), three successful pressure stimulation tests (Hancock et al., 2005a) were performed over 0.5 m intervals, and a thermal stimulation test (Hancock et al., 2005b) was done over a 13 m reservoir interval.
