This book provides a comprehensive review of drilling technologies in the polar regions, from the portable drilling equipment for shallow sampling and coring, to heavy drilling equipment for deep onshore and offshore drilling. Particular attention is given to safe drilling methods in permafrost. In recent years, interest in drilling in the polar regions has increased under the pressure of the geopolitical "rush" and the undiscovered resource potential. In addition, borehole monitoring of permafrost thermal states is urgently needed to obtain evidence of climate change. The book focuses on the…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
This book provides a comprehensive review of drilling technologies in the polar regions, from the portable drilling equipment for shallow sampling and coring, to heavy drilling equipment for deep onshore and offshore drilling. Particular attention is given to safe drilling methods in permafrost. In recent years, interest in drilling in the polar regions has increased under the pressure of the geopolitical "rush" and the undiscovered resource potential. In addition, borehole monitoring of permafrost thermal states is urgently needed to obtain evidence of climate change. The book focuses on the latest drilling technologies but also discusses the historical development of sampling, and drilling tools and devices, over the last 60-70 years providing valuable insights into a way forward and future possibilities.

Autorenporträt
Pavel G. Talalay, is a Professor of Exploration Engineering and Director of the Institute of Polar Science and Engineering in Jilin University, Changchun, China. His research interests are focused on different features of drilling and mining technologies in ice and permafrost; dynamics of ice sheets; ice properties and environmental issues in Polar Regions. He acquired Mining Engineer (1984), Ph.D. (1995) and Doctor of Engineering (2007) degrees at the St. Petersburg Mining University of Russia, where he has also worked as Professor and Chair of Department. Talalay was a guest Researcher in the Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark (1998-1999). In 2010, Talalay was invited to work at Jilin University within the framework of the Chinese state program "Thousand Talents Plan". Later, Talalay became the Director of the Institute of Polar Science and Engineering in Jilin University. Additionally, Talalay is a member of IDP Technical Assistance Board of the University of Wisconsin, Madison, USA. Talalay is the author of over 200 publication, 70 patents, and 19 books and book-chapters, most notable of which are "Mechanical Ice Drilling Technology" (Springer Geophysics, 2016), "Thermal Ice Drilling Technology" (Springer Geophysics, 2020), and "Geotechnical and exploration drilling in the polar regions" (Springer Cham, 2022). He participated in eight field expeditions in Antarctica and the Artic.
