Deep Sea Drilling Vessel (D/V) CHIKYU is the first riser equipped scientific drilling vessel built for science at the planning stage. It is capable of drilling up to 7,000m deep sea floor and aim to the mantle and seismogenic zone. CHIKYU explores the Earth as the main plat form of the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP).
The earth has experienced a number of great environmental changes. The evidence remains under the deep seafloor. The deep sea drilling research open the new frontier of earth and life science for future of mankind by revealing the system of major earthquakes, global changes, origin of life.

  • Russian Kola ultradeep sg-9 12262 ~ 14000 meters - deepest drilling in the world

  • Scientific drilling offers for sure many challenges, in terms of discoveries, studies but also exposing the team to a different way of working and achieving competences.

  • During 2007 the Chikyu was doing primarily test drills for her primary mission.

    She is designed to the depth of 7000meters through the crust to the mantel.

    The "mud" that she collects is analyzed and studied to further our knowledge of everything from geological formations to earth history and dynamics..... the list goes on.

  • @tigerfuzzy Wow no kidding you're so smart impressive.

  • this is suposed to find hell?

  • yep! they have to make lots of dives with new stuff in the same hole, meaning they have to lift and drop stuff in the hole. how they target the same hole is extraordinary
