Among the current methods used for drilling boreholes, mud rotary drilling has been consistently selected as the unit process choice in developing countries due to their low cost and efficient operation. Currently in Nigeria, the major source of potable water for households, communities, institutions and industries is the sinking of boreholes. The development of these boreholes is continuously...
