Chapter I
A Brief History of Scientific Drilling
3
Scientists have been using drilling technology to understand Earth’s history and dynamics
since 1958.
Project Mohole (1958 -1966): Historic Deep Sea Drilling Project (1968 -1983): Linear Ocean Drilling Program (1985 - 2003): Collaborative Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (2003 – 2013): Global International Ocean Discovery Program (2013 - ): Global
Drilling for Science
•Project Mohole attempted to drill through Earth’s oceanic crust to the Mohorovicic Discontinuity and retrieve a sample of the mantle.
•Project Mohole recovered the first sample of oceanic crust.
•Although the mantle was never reached, Project Mohole showed that deep ocean drilling was a viable means of obtaining geological samples.
Project Mohole
IODP-MI
During worldwide operations, Glomar Challenger sailed 96 Legs and
drilled 624 sites.
Deep Sea Drilling Project(DSDP)1968-1983
IODP-MI
DSDP:
Verified the theory of plate tectonics;
Discovered that Antarctica has been ice-covered for 20 million years;
Showed that the Mediterranean Sea completely dried up between 5 and 12 Mya.
DSDP Scientific Highlights
IODP-MI
During ODP, the JOIDES Resolution sailed 110 Legs and drilled 650 sites.
Ocean Drilling Program(ODP)1985-2003
IODP-MI
ODP:Defined the longest record of Earth’s natural climate variability;
Collected the first marine record of the K/T boundary;
Successfully sampled gas hydrates.
ODP Scientific Highlights
IODP-MI
•The Integrated Ocean Drilling Program was the most ambitious of these scientific drilling programs involving:
International partnerships Multiple Drilling Platforms Well-defined scientific goals
