Large scale directional drilling anyone?

[2003Summit]

Ha ha! Probably some of you have seen this before, it was new to me.

At first I thought boy, that guy has not being around, he is taking a picture of a directional drill coming out of the ground, what is so interesting about that. Then I thought this was a little wild, I have seen some directional drilling but not with pipe that big, and not sticking that far out of the ground, then I noticed the drilling head looked a little familiar to me. Then I noticed the drilling platform in the back ground. Obviously no one expected this result. Nice hole! HA HA! Expensive I bet. Wonder what creative things the farmer could do with that?

Does this happen often? Wonder how long they kept pumping mud down before they realized something was wrong. I see alot of it out on the ground there.

Whats interesting is it looks like their wearing PetroCanada coats, and with PetCan being safety nazi's and these guys not wearing proper PPE, these photo could be used for blackmail,,, if one was so inclined.
