This award provides travel funds for five U.S. members of the Krafla Magma DrillingProject (KMDP) to attend the project?s second workshop. The meeting is scheduled for17 and 18 September this year at Landsvirkjun Power Co.?s (LV) facilities at Burfell,Iceland.KMDP is a project of the International Continental Scientific Drilling Program (ICDP)that seeks to probe, with coring, borehole measurements, and coupled surfaceobservations, the rhyolite magma body under Krafla Caldera. Magma was unexpectedlyencountered by the Iceland Deep Drilling Program (IDDP) through their record-breakingwell IDDP-1. IDDP moved on in search of supercritical fluids, their primary goal. KMDParose as a new project with a largely new team to target the magma itself. ICDP funded afirst KMDP workshop of some 50 scientists and engineers from 8 countries in September2014 to discuss using IDDP-1 as a ?hole of opportunity? through which coring could takeplace. Subsequently, it was determined that the hole of opportunity needed to be a new well drilled by LV. ICDP provisionally accepted the KMDP proposal, setting aside $1million for coring operations, with the caveat that a satisfactory proposal addendum detailing aspects of the coring and science be submitted by 28 September this year.Thus there has arisen a need for a second, smaller, tightly focused workshop concentrating on operational planning. LV has generously offered to provide food, lodging, and meeting facilities for the group. There will be about 30 participants from up to eight countries. All participants will be supported by their respective institutions or national science agencies. There will also be participation by USGS and DOE (National Laboratory) scientists.

该奖项为Krafla Magma DrillingProject（KMDP）的五名美国成员提供了旅行资金，以参加该项目的第二次研讨会。该会议定于今年9月18日在冰岛伯菲尔的Landsvirkjun Power Co.？S（LV）设施举行，是国际大陆科学钻探计划（ICDP）的一个项目，该项目旨在探究，以加油，井眼测量，井眼测量，并构造了rhyol rhyolite rhyol kra kra kra kra kra the rhyol the rhyol the rhyol the rhyol the Surtistobservation。岩浆通过其唱片破坏性钻孔IDDP-1造成了冰岛深钻探计划（IDDP）的意外遇到。 IDDP继续寻找超临界流体，这是它们的主要目标。 Kmdparose是一个新项目，主要是一个新的团队来瞄准岩浆本身。 ICDP在2014年9月为来自8个国家的约50位科学家和工程师提供了资助的AFIRST KMDP研讨会，以讨论使用IDDP-1作为机会漏洞？加油可以带走的地方。随后，确定机会的孔需要是LV钻出的新井。 ICDP临时接受了KMDP提案，搁置了100万美元的加油操作，并注意到，令人满意的提案附录将在今年9月28日之前提交加油和科学的各个方面。 LV慷慨地提出了为该集团提供食物，住宿和会议设施。最多八个国家的参与者将有大约30名参与者。所有参与者将得到各自机构或国家科学机构的支持。 USGS和DOE（国家实验室）科学家还将参与。
