It's a scientific drilling vessel.

Drilling.

Deep borehole drilling

If you are a boy, why aren't you drilling?

Drilling should take two hours.

That's four hours for the drilling alone.

What for? Because they're drilling, that's why.

He's right down there with those drilling crews.

While drilling one well with one rotary table, the vessel will be able to carry out completion operations and set casings using the other.

My point is that this is not oil drilling.

Norway Intervention in merger between American drilling equipment companies

In the wake of the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010 and the subsequent US drilling embargo, the approval of Shell s drilling operations off the Alaskan coast received considerable media attention. However, this year s planned drilling of three wells in the Chukchi Sea and two in the Beaufort Sea was first reduced to one well and then postponed until next year after a containment dome an emergency device for stopping a blowout was damaged.

There are 40 platforms and vessels around the world that could have submitted a tender for the drilling of the deep water (1,600 meter) oil exploration well off Cuban coasts.

The merged company would have had a very strong position in the drilling equipment market.

Some of the main projects in the more desertic areas include the treatment of salty and brackish water, drainage and irrigation and increased well drilling.

We've been through this before with other ways of offshore drilling.

Obviously, this would cause the cost of drilling to increase significantly.

The most common methods of deleting markings are grinding and drilling.

We've been through this before with other ways of offshore drilling.

A topographic survey was carried out around the summit of Dome A, including the drilling of a 108 metre ice core.

It was the greed and recklessness that led to the drilling explosion.

Both National Oilwell and Varco have subsidiaries in Norway, and were well established in the supply of drilling equipment and services for the Norwegian Continental Shelf before the merger.

I could hear them all the way down the corridor above the drilling.

It consists mainly of about 1,750 metres (m) of boreholes at sea at several sites in the area under study, using a dynamically positioned drilling vessel (MSPOV Kingfisher) equipped with a piggyback coring system and a re entrable seabed system, which can eliminate or reduce the limitation of the drilling length inherent in the length of the tidal periods of currents navigable by the drilling vessel, as was the case in previous surveys.

This is a crazy thing, this big drill rig wrapped in a blanket to keep everybody warm, drilling at temperatures of minus 40.

There he was allegedly subjected to torture, including beatings with rifle butts and electric drilling.

In the last war, the army took over Lord's Cricket Ground for drilling troops on.

(e) Units that would support the deployed military units as well as other elements of the mission, such as a military police company, a heavy cargo transport company, a riverine unit, a bridging unit, aviation units, hospitals levels II and III, a well drilling company, a signals company, air load teams, air medical evacuation teams and a petroleum platoon and movement control unit

For those anxious little hands I'd be equally as willing For a dentist to be drilling Than to ever let a woman in my life!

They were the leading companies globally in providing systems and equipment for oil and gas drilling.

Drilling is what she needs Leave her alone or she'll be turning to you for sympathy.

So that means drilling for oil in the deepest water, including the icy Arctic seas, where a clean up may simply be impossible.

We stopped drilling in ANWR, but we didn't actually reduce the amount of oil that we consumed.

The new US rules for offshore oil operations in the Arctic which forced Shell to postpone drilling until next year are certainly stricter than the old rules, and will reduce the risk of a blowout. But, if one occurs, the only reliable way to stop it and cap the well is to drill a relief well.

Drilling a release well finally did the job of stopping the flow of oil. Deepwater Horizon is still spewing oil into the Gulf of Mexico, even though BP has succeeded in inserting a smaller pipe into the main leakage to suck off part of the flow.

45. Inclusion of a sort of drilling mechanism in the payload of such a mission would assist scientists in the investigation of volatile organic materials and mineralogy.

33. Inclusion of a sort of drilling mechanism in the payload of such a mission would assist scientists in the investigation of volatile organic materials and mineralogy.

But even more striking than the ferocious power emanating from that well was the recklessness with which that power was unleashed the carelessness, the lack of planning that characterized the operation from drilling to clean up.

And so what we did was, actually, we made moratoriums on the east and west coasts on drilling.

The ice drilling project on the north eastern corner of the Amery ice shelf near Davis Station continued.

No coring of the lake has yet taken place, with drilling stopping approximately 100 metres above the lake.

In the meantime, the survey of water resources had been completed, but a planned drilling programme around potential repatriation sites had been put on hold.

The Authority warned that the merger would restrict competition in the markets for equipment and components used in oil and gas drilling and production, and thus the merged company has to divest itself of National Oilwell's Norwegian subsidiaries active in drilling equipment sales and service.
