A hole bored or drilled in the earth,an exploratory well,a small-diameter well drilled especially to obtain water.A borehole is drilled for extraction of minerals relying on a process that uses high-pressure water. The water jets make it possible to drill into hard rock, whether in an open-pit floor, underground mine space, land surface, or from a vessel in the sea or on a lake.

What Causes Borehole Failure?
Borehole collapse occurs when the drilling-fluid pressure is too low to maintain the structural integrity of the drilled hole. The associated problems are pipe sticking and possible loss of well.
Can A Borehole Be Drilled Anywhere?
