The drilling of a superdeep borehole began on Thursday in the Sichuan Basin, a major gas production area in southwest China. It is the second over 10,000-meter-deep borehole that is being drilled in China after drilling of the first one began at the end of May in the Tarim Basin in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. With a designed depth of 10,520 meters, the borehole is located in the northwest of Sichuan Basin. The drilling is operated by the PetroChina Southwest Oil and Gasfield Company. It is expected that a new superdeep natural gas storage area will be discovered after the success of the drilling. (Xinhua/Xiao Yonghang)
