A vanishing at infinity solution of the three-dimensional Laplace equation is sought in an a priori unknown domain with overdetermined boundary conditions, the right-hand sides of which depend on the unit normal to the free boundary. A perturbation analysis of the nonstandard free boundary problem that models deep abrasive drilling has been performed under the assumption that the free boundary is close to the surface of a given semi-infinite cylinder, the longitudinal position of which depends on the boundary data, and the leading-order asymptotic solution has been developed.
