pour effectuer
Daryo Feb 15, 2015:
in this case the meaning of "to proceed with" is clear [not many variations are possible anyway], and more context is not going to change the meaning.

Jennifer Levey Feb 14, 2015:
Incomprehensible without full context ... ... where 'full context' = (as an absolute minimum) 'complete sentence'.
Louis Gwiango Feb 14, 2015:
My suggestion is based on the stretch alone, which means the phrase "proceder a" is likely to have a different meaning depending o what precedes it. Therefore, I would have loved to have the whole sentence
Louis Gwiango Feb 14, 2015:
It sounds like it is simply a process to achieve, allow or make drilling possible.
Thomas T. Frost Feb 14, 2015:
Phrase incomplete? That doesn't look like a complete phrase. It's difficult to suggest the right translation for "to" without knowing what the entire phrase says.

Not so much "allow" as just "do".
Peer comment(s):

agree Daryo : just "do" // get on with it etc - not much more context needed to get the meaning, although more context would possibly allow for a more elegant wording

I believe "to proceed with" simply means "leading to", "allowing" or "making possible"
