To provide a source of water for a range of applications.
This can include:
The main reason for using a borehole rather than a normal water supplies are - location (not always easy to get water pumped in to rural places) and the potential cost savings. Borehole water is much cheaper than the water you get through your taps.
The Kola Superdeep Borehole was begun in 1970 and finished in 1992. It reached 12,262 meters deep. Work ceased due to the difficulties of drilling in extreme temperatures (~300 degrees Celsius) and lack of funding.
A tube well is used to access groundwater for various purposes like irrigation, drinking water supply, and industrial use. It consists of a borehole with a tube installed to prevent the walls from collapsing and serve as a pathway for water to be extracted from the underground aquifers.
There are a few things, either mix the borehole water with fresh water to dilute the amount of salt in the water before watering with it. or Alternate watering with borehole water and fresh water alternate days to help leach some of the salts from the soil. or Water regularly to ensure that the soil does not start to dry; once the surface water starts to evaporate it draws diluted salts up to the surface (and closer to the root zone) where it eventually forms a white crust of salt on the soil as the water evaporates.
The deepest humans have traveled into the Earth is about 7.5 miles (12 kilometers) through deep mines. This achievement was in the Kola Superdeep Borehole in Russia.
The relationship between temperature and turbidity in borehole water can be complex. Generally, higher temperatures can increase the solubility of minerals and organic materials, potentially leading to higher turbidity levels as more particles become suspended. Additionally, warmer temperatures can promote biological activity, such as the growth of algae or bacteria, which can also contribute to increased turbidity. However, the specific relationship may vary depending on local geological and environmental conditions.

As a noun, 'borehole' doesn't have an antonym.
There's a beetle in this borehole.
A borehole geophysical log is the science of recording and analysing measurements of physical properties made in wells or test holes. Borehole Geophysical logs provide a borehole record of the lithology, fractures, permeability, porosity and water quality.
Not 100% sure on the question whether it means surveying an existing borehole or assessing the viability of drilling a new one. If it's surveying an existing borehole for problems etc that is usually done via CCTV where a camera is lowered into the 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.
The Kola Superdeep Borehole was closed due to a lack of funding and the challenges of drilling to extreme depths.
A deep borehole is drilled much deeper into the ground compared to a shallow borehole. Deep boreholes are typically used for extracting resources such as water, oil, or gas from deep underground reservoirs, while shallow boreholes are often used for environmental monitoring, water wells, or geotechnical purposes at shallower depths.
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.

The construction of a borehole typically involves several key stages: Site Assessment: This initial stage includes evaluating the location for geological suitability and environmental impact. Drilling: Using specialized equipment, the borehole is drilled to the required depth, often using rotary or percussion drilling methods. Installation: Once the borehole is drilled, casing is installed to prevent collapse and contamination, followed by the installation of a well screen to filter water. Testing and Development: Finally, the borehole is developed and tested to assess water quality and yield, ensuring it meets the intended use.
Connecting a borehole without proper protection is not advisable, as it can lead to contamination of the water supply and compromise the structural integrity of the borehole. Without protective measures, surface pollutants can easily seep into the groundwater, posing health risks. Additionally, the lack of protection can result in the collapse of the borehole or damage from surrounding soil and environmental factors. Therefore, it's essential to implement protective measures to ensure safe and sustainable water access.
