#ScientificDrilling #IODP #ICDP
We’ve wrapped up drilling at Crary Ice Rise with 228m of sediment core. This is an unprecedented record of the history of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet stretching back millions of years. Initial observations indicate the core includes periods of environmental change during past times of warming.
ICDP needs a Field Data Geoscientist to drive field data workflows for international drilling projects using mDIS and drill-site instrumentation.
📍 Place of work: Potsdam, Germany
📆 Start: ASAP | Fixed-term 31 Dec 2028
🗓 Application deadline: 1 February 2026
🔗 Apply here: www.gfz.de/karriere/ste...
We have successfully drilled 200 metres of sediment core from beneath the ice sheet at Crary Ice Rise! The pipe is still spinning - with a bit of time up our sleeve, we’re not stopping drilling yet, as we continue to drill back through the geological archive hidden beneath the ice. 📷 Ana Tovey

Hot water drilling is underway at Crary Ice Rise! The team have begun to melt a hole through the ice to make our well. They’ll melt the hole to around 100m below the ice surface, widen it to make a well cavity, and install a pump 📷 Luke Murphy / Antarctica New Zealand
🌠 ICDP wishes you all the best for 2026 🌠
Last chance to catch us at #AGU2025 in New Orleans!
Yesterday’s Ocean Drilling Town Hall was a blast – great energy, and strong collaboration between continental and ocean drilling communities.
Visit our joint booth and talk all things scientific drilling.
