Table T1. Model operations plan and time estimate, Expedition 345.
This table is a model only. It is likely that the sequence of operations will be different. See “Drilling strategy and operations plan” for explanation. The single primary goal of our expedition is to establish a hole that can be reentered multiple times, allow formation stability to be maintained, and core/log that hole as deeply as possible. When this occurs, all remaining available time may be spent on this hole and other holes/sites will not be established. RCB = rotary core barrel.
