Title: Engineering task plan for the development of a high pressure water drill system for BY-105 saltwell screen installation

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/781545· OSTI ID:781545

This engineering task plan identifies the activities required for developing an ultra high pressure water drill system for installation of a saltwell screen in Tank BY-105. A water drill system is needed to bore through the hard waste material in this tank because of the addition of Portland cement in the 1960s and/or 1970s. The activities identified in this plan include the design, procurement, and qualification testing of the water drill along with readiness preparations including developing operating procedures, training Operations personnel, and conducting an assessment of readiness.
