Description/Abstract:
Progress in the Plowshare program during 1966 was characterized by the upsurge of interest by industry in the contained applications of nuclear explosions for gas and oil stimulation, storage and disposal, recovery of oil from oil shales, and mining. Advances in the excavation area were limited to improved code calculations as no field experiments were conducted.
