So I guess the drill head just stays underground? Seems wasteful but I cant think of a way they could get it up apart from it being collapsible and coming through the pipe

@castlemania08

2 жыл бұрын

The drill head comes back up after the bore has been drilled. The lengths of pipe with the threads are the steel shaft sections the cutter head is attached to. The shafts are tack welded together after they’ve been joined so that the sections wont unthread and fall down the borehole if the cutter head is reversed. After the cutter head has reached the water bearing level, the cutter head shaft sections are brought up the borehole and disassembled along with the cutter head, then a bore casing is inserted down the borehole ready for the submersible pump to be installed.

They definitely can, it's just incredibly inefficient and wouldn't work as a well. It's much easier to break up thousands of kilos of rock and move the spoil than to vaporize it. Also, when you cut rock or metal with a laser, you melt the edges of your cut. This would make the rock impermeable to water defeating the point.
