The Kola Superdeep Borehole SG-3 (Russian: Кольская сверхглубокая скважина СГ-3, romanized: Kol'skaya sverkhglubokaya skvazhina SG-3) is the deepest human-made hole on Earth (since 1979), which attained maximum true vertical depth of 12,262 metres (40,230 ft; 7.619 mi) in 1989. [1]

The Soviet Union had, in fact, drilled a hole more than 12 km (7.5 miles) deep, the Kola Superdeep Borehole, located not in Siberia but on the Kola Peninsula, which shares borders with Norway and Finland. Upon reaching the depth of 12,262 m (40,230 feet) in 1989, geological anomalies were found, although they reported no supernatural encounters ...
This hard-to-find rusty cap in the ruins of a building in Russia's Kola Peninsula covers the deepest hole on earth. The scientists drilled it off and on for 24 years from 1970 to 1994. They got ...
The San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth (SAFOD) was a research project that began in 2002 aimed at collecting geological data about the San Andreas Fault for the purpose of predicting and analyzing future earthquakes. [1] [2] The site consists of a 2.2 km (1.4 miles) pilot hole and a 3.2 km (2 miles) main hole. [3] Drilling operations ceased ...
The Kola Superdeep Borehole on the Kola peninsula of Russia reached 12,262 metres (40,230 ft) and is the deepest penetration of the Earth's solid surface. The German Continental Deep Drilling Program at 9.1 kilometres (5.7 mi) has shown the earth crust to be mostly porous.
In terms of depth below the surface, the Kola Superdeep Borehole SG-3 retains the world record at 12,262 metres (40,230 ft) in 1989 and still is the deepest artificial point on Earth. [ 4 ] Hollow Earth
In the oil industry measured depth (commonly referred to as MD, or just the depth) is the length of the drilled borehole. [1] In conventional vertical wells, this coincides with the true vertical depth , but in directional or horizontal wells, especially those using extended reach drilling , the two can deviate greatly.
