Abstract: A procedure for the installation of horizontal drains for uptake of seawater of the type of those that use horizontal directional drilling (HDD) with widening by means of reamers and use of drilling muds for consolidation of the drilled galleries, and subsequent installation of drains, characterized in that the horizontal directional drilling (HDD), of single or multiple holes, is carried out from behind the coastline and directed towards the sea, crossing predetermined submerged productive strata; in the boreholes drilled, tubular drains are introduced, with grooves or holes only in stretches that correspond to predicted productive areas, remaining closed in the other sections; the space between the hole and the drain is sealed in the non-productive parts.
