Tech/Engineering - Mining & Minerals / Gems / drilling heads
English term or phrase: tighty radius drilling arrangement
I am predominantly concerned with the expression "tight radius" in this context.
"You see a vertical section through a typical tight radius drilling arrangement using a fluid drilling head."

inrichting voor het boren onder een scherpe hoek
Explanation:
erg veel variatie mogelijk mbt de door mij gekozen termen (bocht/nauwe/installatie/radius/krappe/opstelling/...), maar hier komt het ongeveer op neer.
Zie: http://www.wipo.int/pctdb/en/wo.jsp?WO=2004055325&IA=WO20040... "In tight-radius drilling, the drilling head is fed down a vertical well and then bent around a tight radius to carry out drilling operations in a substantially horizontal trajectory."

agree  Jack den Haan: Helemaal mee eens, maar ik zou in een octrooicontext rustig een tight-radius boorinrichting of -opstelling noemen.
