Method of drilling a bore hole (106) in a fractured formation, comprising the steps of: deploying a drill pipe (112) into the borehole (106), whereby an annular space (115) is formed between the drill pipe (112) and the borehole wall; pumping, by means of primary pumps (138), a drilling fluid (150) into the bore hole (106) via an internal conduit of the drill pipe (112) and a drill pipe fluid outlet (114) present in the vicinity of a distal end of the drill pipe (112); pressure sealing the annular space (115) using a pressure seal (142) such as a rotating head on a BOP; pumping a well control fluid into the annular space (115) via a well control conduit (124) that fluidly connects the annular space (115), in a location between the pressure seal (142) and the drill pipe fluid outlet (114), to a back pressure system (131); pressure- balancing the well control fluid against the pressure seal (142) and the backpressure system (131).

L'invention concerne un procédé pour forer un trou de forage (106) dans une formation fracturée, qui comprend les stades suivants: déployer un tube de forage (112) dans le trou de forage (106), un espace annulaire (115) étant formé entre le tube de forage (112) et la paroi du trou de forage; pomper au moyen de pompes primaires (138) un fluide de forage (150) dans le trou de forage (106) via une conduite interne d'un tube de forage (112) et une sortie de fluide de forage (114) du tube de forage, présente à proximité d'une extrémité distale du tube de forage (112); étachéifier sous pression l'espace annulaire (115) en utilisant un joint d'étanchéité (142) tel qu'une tête rotative sur un BOP; pomper un fluide de commande de puits dans l'espace annulaire (115) via une conduite de commande de puits (124) qui relie par fluides l'espace annulaire (115), dans une position entre le joint d'étanchéité (142) et la sortie de fluide de forage (114), jusqu'à un système de pression inverse (131); et équilibrer la pression du fluide de commande de puits contre le joint d'étanchéité (142) et le système de pression inverse (131).
