Best Answer

Drilled Hole: a deep hole drilled into the ground to obtain samples for geological study or to release or extract water or oil

Usually narrow in width. Probably the most common type is a water borehole, which is where the borehole is used as a water well.

If it's assessing the viability of drilling a new borehole then that's called borehole prognosis and that is carried by a hydrogeologist who geology, hydrogeology, water quality, potential yield and borehole depth requirements.
