ABSTRACT:
A method of lining and drilling a bore (10) comprises the steps of mounting a first section of bore-lining tubing (20) on the lower end portion of a drill string (18). The method also includes running the drill string and tubing into a bore having an unlined section and an existing tubing lined section, locating the first tubing section (20) in the unlined section, uncoupling the first tubing section (20) from the drill string (18), and drilling the bore beyond the first tubing section.
