perforadora de agujeros horizontales
Explanation:
Su propia denominación hace inecesaria una mayor explicación, salvo que se usa en obras de movimientos de tierras. En la industria petrolera, en cambio, se le llamaría <perforadora de avance>.

Lo confirmo en el Diccionario Politécnico de las Lenguas Española e Inglesa (F. Beigbeder Atienza - Ediciones Díaz de Santos)
