			Normal heat pumpheating for typical house needs 200m deep hole or two. Typical sale price for one hole is near 5000eur per customer. (60N, granite bed rock). Hole field is also great way to store summer solar heat and use it winter. Only problem is current price for hole fields .

A Preliminary Design

	[[Image:Well-~~Drilling_Rig~~.png\|thumb\|right\|400px]]		[[Image:Well-Drilling_RigRender.png\|thumb\|right\|400px]]

	Here is a first rendering of the well drilling rig as rendered in BRL-CAD. The hydraulic pump (green) from the [[MicroTrac]] is shown mounted with the shaft downwards on the blue sliding frame which moves up and down the side tracks. The mounting of the motor to the green frame will use the same two bolt quick release system employed by the MicroTrac to allow for interoperability and quick changeovers from one device to the other. The rotating shaft from the hydraulic pump is connected to the purple section of drill string piping which stays centered in the swivel tee allowing drilling mud to flow into it and down the drill string (shown in light green). The purple section of piping is held horizontally by the holes in the top and bottom of the frame which are only slightly bigger than the purple pipe. This purple section of piping is supported vertically by the rotating bearing assembly which rides on the top of the sliding frame. If rock is encountered while drilling the small circular plate above the bearing will push the bearing down putting extra weight on the drill string. This allows weights to be hung along the back panel of the frame allowing the amount of downward force on the drill string to be manipulated. In the reverse situation, when tripping the drill string out of the hole, the purple section will pull down on the bearing causing it to move off the circular plate and against the frame below, pushing down on the frame and holding up the drill string as it is withdrawn from the well.
