Present day system Earth research utilizes
the tool ‘Scientific Drilling’ to access
samples and to monitor deep Earth
processes that cannot be tackled by other
scientific means. Unlike most laboratory
experiments or computer modelling,
drilling projects are massive field
endeavours requiring intense collaboration
of researchers with engineers and service
providers. In the framework of the
International Continental Scientific Drilling
Program, ICDP, more than seventy drilling
projects have been conducted, from multiyear
big research programs to short, smallscale
deployments such as lake drilling
projects. ICDP has supported these
projects not only through grants covering
field-related costs, but also through a
variety of scientific-technical services and
support, as well as active help in data
management, outreach and publication.
These services are described in this
booklet. Due to its instructional character,
we call it the ICDP Primer.
