get a job in a company in charge for many years was the deepest well in the world, it was very difficult.The city Polar (USSR) in the early eighties of the twentieth century came hundreds of specialists, of whom there were only one, that of their qualifications will immediately receive an apartment in the city, as well as wages exceeding several times in Moscow.

Around peculiar telescope into the inner world of our planet (the depth of 12.262 km) in those years there were about 16 research institutions who studied rock samples extracted and processes occurring at depth.Currently, it is in Russia, in the Murmansk region (Pechenegsky ore district), is the deepest borehole in the world.Its official name sounds like "Kola ultradeep".Record set once, and even for scientific purposes, are still not beaten by any other power.

How exploited the deepest borehole in the world?The name tells us that the work was carried out in the area of ​​the peninsula, which is composed of the oldest rocks on the planet.Applicable where equipment is not ordinary as, for example, a drill has a thickness of 0.2 m, and is fixed at the end thereof a plurality of devices.For raising and lowering a research tool into the well is required for a few days, as the cable can simply break off under its own weight at higher speeds.

What discovered by Soviet scientists, once in their possession was the deepest well in the world?The names of many phenomena with which they are faced, still not found.For example, once the mine got melted drill, the melting point of the metal is close to the temperature in the sun.Another time something pulls the bottom rope.There are legends that the microphone is recorded at a depth of eerie sounds similar to voices from hell, but in fact at this depth using geophones transmitting wave picture sound reflections from objects.

addition mystical events at the Kola super-deep was made many discoveries, among which there is evidence that our planet has a structure different from that which is usually stated in textbooks.Moreover, samples of lunar soil brought Soviet Lunokhod, its composition coincided with the samples seized from a depth of three kilometers to the mine.This suggests that billions of years ago the Moon off the ground.Unfortunately, since 1995, works on the Kola ultradeep stopped.Mine is simply maintained at the expense of the United Nations.

Modern deepest in the world, well, the name of which is also connected with Russia (Chayvo field), in fact is not, because it is not as deep as long (12,700 meters drilled than vertically downwards, and at an angleto the surface).There is also the longest objects relates well "Odoptu-Sea" in Sakhalin, whose length is 12,345 meters.

Development on Chaivo field (Z-42) can now wear the proud title of "the deepest oil well."Second place goes respectively "Odoptu-Sea", and the third - the object in Qatar (oil pool Al-Shaheen, the length of 12,289 meters, the developer of "Transocean").
