Abstract
The Ocean Drilling Program replaces the recently completed drilling phase of the Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP). A new and larger deep sea drilling vessel with expanded capabilities including a longer drill string, bare rock spudin, enhanced logging, and the potential for riser drilling will replace the D/V Glomar Challenger. Drilling is scheduled to commence in January 1985, and planning is now underway. The drill ship will then proceed to the Pacific Ocean and circumnavigate the earth at least twice during the 10‐year program. Suggestions for drilling objectives, downhole experiments, etc., for all areas worldwide are now being solicited by JOIDES (Joint Oceanographic Institutions for Deep Earth Sampling).
