Industry:Energy
The act of boring a hole (1) to determine whether minerals are present in commercially recoverable quantities and (2) to accomplish production of the minerals (including drilling toinject fluids). * Exploratory. Drilling to locate probable mineral deposits or to establish the nature of geological structures; such wells may not be capable of production if minerals are discovered. * Developmental. Drilling to delineate the boundaries of a known mineral deposit to enhance the productive capacity of the producing mineral property. * Directional. Drilling that is deliberately made to depart significantly from the vertical.
Industry:Energy
a recombined coalbed sample produced by averaging together thickness-weighted coal analyses from partial samples of the coalbed, such as from one or more bench samples, from one or more mine exposures or outcrops where the entire bed could not be accessed in one sample, or from multiple drill cores that were required to retrieve all local sections of a coal seam.
Industry:Energy
The part of a boiler or warm-air space-heating plant in which combustion takes place.
Industry:Energy
A coke plant whose coke production is used primarily by the producing company.
