The latest study of Massachusetts Institute of Technology "The Future of Geothermal Energy – Impact of Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) on the United States in the 21st Century" (2006) points out the essential importance of developing an economical deep geothermal boring technology. With current boring technologies, bore price rises exponentially with depth. Thus, finding a boring technology with which the bore price rise would be approximately linear with increasing bore depth is an important challenge. New drilling technologies requirements This MIT study characterizes the requirements on new fast and ultra-deep boring technology as follows: the price of boring rises linearly with depth bore axis with neutral floating the possibility to make vertical or inclined bores up to 10 km deep the possibility to make large diameter bores – even 5 times larger than on the ground compared to today drilling technologies casing formed on site in the borehole Examples of new drilling technologies There are more than 20 research efforts solving innovative drilling technology such as: laser, spallation, plasma, electron beam, pallets, enhanced rotary, electric spark and discharge, electric arc, water jet erosion, ultrasonic, chemical, induction, nuclear, forced flame explosive, turbine, high frequency, microwave, heating/cooling stress, electric current and several other. The most promising solutions are mentioned below: 1. Hydrothermal spallation – Thermal spallation drilling uses a large, downhole burner, much like a jet engine, to apply a high heat flux to the rock face. This drilling technology is based on thermal processes of rock spallation and fusion. 2. Chemical plasma – is based on crushing by high-speed combustion, but nitric acid as oxidizing agent instead of oxygen. 3. Erosion - most patents refer to water jet rock cutting. Different modification variants are described, e.g. utilization of cavitation, turbulent processes, combination with mechanical processes, etc. 4. Laser - during the recent decade intense research has been made into utilization of high energy laser beams for rock disintegration. Primarily conversion of military equipment is concerned. Laser energy is used for the process of thermal spallation, melting, or evaporation of rock. 5. Electric discharge - The methods utilizing electric discharge are based on long-term experience gained in other application areas. 6. Electrical plasma - is based on crushing by irradiation of plasma with high temperature up to 20 000°C 7. Direct transfer of heat - This technology is based on electrically melting rock at 1400°C; lava gravel will float to top; bore
