During the last 40 years, rotary drilling has become the preferred method for penetrating underground formations ... a special tool-the drill bit-rotates while bearing down on the bottom of the well, thus gouging and chipping its way downward ... The drill bit is connected to the surface equipment through a drill pipe, a heavy-walled tubing through which the drilling mud is fed to the bottom of the bore hole. In most cases, the drill pipe also transmits the rotation motion from a turntable at the surface to the bit at the bottom of the hole. 3, record 9, English, - rotary%20drilling

Record number: 13, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Cable-tool drilling consists in pulverizing the rock formation a little at a time by alternately raising and dropping a heavy cutting tool called a bit, thereby driving a hole into the earth. Water must be present in the bottom of the hole to keep the rock fragments in suspension, and from time to time the excess water and rock particles must be bailed out. 4, record 13, English, - cable%2Dtool%20drilling
Record number: 13, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Early wells were drilled with impact-type tools, in a method called cable-tool drilling, in which a chisel-like bit was suspended from a cable to a lever at the surface, and an up-and-down motion of the lever caused the bit to pound the bottom of the hole and chip away the rock. Such drilling had to be interrupted periodically to allow loose rock chips to be removed with a basket-like device. 5, record 13, English, - cable%2Dtool%20drilling

Les termes «forage au câble», «forage par battage» et «système de forage par battage» portent la mention CORRECT puisqu’ils représentent des formes abrégées du syntagme «système de forage par battage au câble» dûment attesté dans UNIVE (Encyclopaedia Universalis). Nous attribuons également la mention CORRECT aux termes «sondage au câble» et «sondage par battage» puisqu’ils sont construits sur les modèles «forage au câble» et «forage par battage». Toutefois, nous recommandons que ces termes soient utilisés dans le domaine minier puisque le Dictionnaire de géologie de A. Foucault et J.-F. Raoult [source FOUGE, 1984, p. 132] et le Dictionnaire du pétrole de Yves Barbier [source BARPE, 1981, p.78] signalent que le terme sondage s’applique à la reconnaissance du sous-sol. 7, record 13, French, - forage%20au%20battage
