Spring Breeze 1991

Yao Yuan raised his chin slightly, and said, "Since my chances of winning are not great, what are you afraid of? There is no limit to the number of exploration teams in the racing exploration, Mr. Galotovich, right?"

"Yes." Garotvich said with a smile, "Mr. Jin, if Hyundai Petroleum is worried about falling behind, it is absolutely possible to increase the number of exploration teams."

Yao Yuan smiled and said, "Oh, I have to correct you. The first batch of exploration teams invested by Southern Industrial was [-], not the [-] you know."

"Impossible, you simply can't afford fifty exploration teams to work in the field at the same time, and even thirty exploration teams have exceeded the capacity of Southern Industrial." Jin Zaixuan has completely calmed down, thinking that this is Yao Yuan's suspicious strategy.

Fifty exploration teams start operating at the same time, consuming up to $5000 million a day.

That's $5000 million, not $[-].

every day!

Since the emergence of oil, no oil company has ever used such a large-scale exploration team, and even more than five exploration teams are rare.Because even the Seven Sisters of Petroleum can hardly support such a large-scale consumption.

It is reasonable for Kim Jae-hyun not to believe it.

Not only him, but everyone did not believe it.

Garotvic is also waiting for Yao Yuan to solve the doubts in his heart.

However, Yao Yuan had no intention of explaining. He smiled and said to Galotovich, "Mr. Gallo, our first exploration team will enter the site tomorrow. Is there any problem?"

"No, no, of course not. As long as you don't violate the rules, if you need help, please let me know." Garotvic said quickly.

He wished the sooner the better.

Kim Jae-hyun did not show any weakness, and said, "Our Hyundai Petroleum exploration team will also enter the site tomorrow."

"Great." Galotvic was even happier.

Yao Yuan smiled and nodded, actually took off his coat and threw it to Jiang Yong beside him, and then plunged into the unloading line, the dignified boss regarded himself as an ordinary worker.

Kim Jae-hyun stared at Yao Yuan, who didn't look like a showman, for a while, and he and Qian Zhongxin exchanged glances, and the two hurried back to the dormitory.

"Norwegian and Finnish exploration teams have already arrived in Tyumen City. They must transfer over overnight and dare to enter the site for exploration before dark tomorrow." Kim Jae-hyun picked up the satellite phone and started calling.

Qian Zhongxin frowned and sat there thinking, and said slowly, "Yao Yuan doesn't seem to be joking, do they really have the ability to launch [-] exploration teams at the same time?"

"Impossible, they can't afford five thousand dollars a day." Kim Jae-hyun said firmly.

Qian Zhongxinyi suddenly put forward a hypothesis, "What if Nanfang Industrial does not use US dollars for settlement, or even, what if the exploration teams from major oil fields in Huaxia are obligatory?"

"Huh?" Kim Jae-hyun stopped the movement of his hands just after making a phone call, and looked at Qianzhong Xinyi in puzzlement.

Qian Zhongxin said, "The whole country system, Huaxia is a whole country system. If Nanfang Industrial has official support, he is fully capable of mobilizing dozens of exploration teams to work at the same time. What the worker said is true. Every time When encountering national-level projects, Huaxia people will use the method of large-scale battles, with tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people working at the same time."

Jin Jae-hyun's premonition suddenly turned bad, "Is it possible? Can Southern Industrial get official support? Even if the support is obligatory, it can't be free."

Qian Zhongxin said worriedly, "The exploration teams of Huaxia's major oil fields have arrived, and there is no doubt that Nanfang Industrial has received official support from Huaxia. Of course, it is impossible to provide free help, but they are all Huaxia companies, and they use their own countries to support each other. It is normal for the currency to be settled domestically.”

"Their cost itself is extremely low. In this way, perhaps the cost of drilling a well is only [-] US dollars. Southern Industrial is fully capable of affording [-] exploration wells."

The cost of 500 million U.S. dollars per day is affordable, and in exchange for [-] exploration teams operating at the same time, theoretically speaking, they can drill [-] exploration wells for one day at the same time. It will take three to five days, and the oil will definitely come out.

That's a cost of 3000 to [-] million US dollars.

Even if it does not participate in the follow-up share, the theoretical profit of Southern Industrial is 40% to 50%, which is a very beautiful figure.

Hyundai Petroleum and New Daily Chemicals spent 500 million on hiring an exploration team, but the scale was much smaller.

Additional exploration teams are inevitable, which means that the cost of exploration will rise.

With the last ray of hope, Kim Jae-hyun said, "We need to find out whether Southern Industrial is going to send out fifty exploration teams. If there is no definite information, it will be difficult to approve the additional budget of the group headquarters."

"It's too late, they are moving very fast, and we are already behind." Qianzhong Xinyi shook his head slightly and said, "On behalf of Xinrihua, I will add an additional 500 million US dollars to the budget."

Hyundai Petroleum had to follow suit.

Gritting his teeth, Kim Jae-hyun said, "Okay, Hyundai Petroleum will also add an additional $500 million."

This amount is their maximum authority. A total of 1000 million US dollars has been added, which is enough for two European exploration teams to work for a week.

Kim Jae-hyun suddenly said, "Let's invite the exploration teams from Singapore and Malaysia. Although their level is not as good, they are cheaper. In this way, we can add three more exploration teams, and then we have eight exploration teams in our hands. One is aerial exploration, technically it should be able to make up for the disadvantage in numbers.”

On the second day, all doubts disappeared, because the Southern Industrial convoy had never stopped since it started at night.

Nanfang Industrial has collected almost all the trucks in the Tyumen area. There are more than 500 all-terrain crawler vehicles used in harsh terrains. From the Far East Military Region to the Siberia Military Region, these important transportation tools have been cleaned up. strange.

Each exploration team is equipped with about ten all-terrain crawler vehicles, and more than 500 vehicles are enough to support fifty exploration teams.

Yao Yuan wasn't joking. What he was commanding was a large corps battle involving tens of thousands of people. He had prepared more than 5000 tons of living supplies alone!

Oil workers from major oil fields, they only stayed in Huaxia camp for an hour or two. After packing up their equipment and loading supplies, they set off directly into the deep mountains and old forests to embark on the road of exploration.

For three consecutive days, more than 30 exploration teams from Southern Industrial have gone to the predetermined location and started exploration work non-stop.

And when the third night came, the Norwegian exploration team and the Finnish exploration team hired by Hyundai Petroleum started to leave the camp. Kim Jae-hyun was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he couldn't do anything about it.

However, Modern Petroleum's follow-up actions were very fast. Through aerial exploration, they quickly completed the preliminary exploration of a large area. In fact, this has provided a good basis for narrowing the scope.

Yao Yuan didn't choose aerial exploration, not because he didn't have the financial resources, but because there is no professional aerial exploration team in the country, not a domestic team, he is determined not to use it, and would rather spend the money on cooperation with major oil fields.

For the oilfield cadres who have rich experience in commanding large-scale battles, apart from the difference in language and the harsh natural environment, the battle here is child’s play, but this is the first foreign oilfield battle. It is said that this is not only an economic cooperation project, It is also a political project that requires everyone to work to the highest standards.

Yao Yuan asked Zhong Weiguo to invite Soviet experts who had participated in the exploration of the Tyumen oil region, and he also recruited a group of retired veteran cadres who had stayed in the Soviet Union from China, and asked them to recall the brotherhood in the past and obtain relevant information about Tyumen from the Soviet experts. The situation in the oil field.

The oil field Galotovich got is a small-to-medium-sized oil field in the Tyumen oil region. According to the preliminary exploration data of the Soviet Union, the recoverable reserves are below [-] million tons. This is one of the reasons why Galotovich was able to get it. , otherwise it would not be his turn at all.

Yao Yuan didn't know the specific location of the oil outlet, that is to say, his innate consciousness would not be effective in this racing exploration, which was also the main reason why he decided to use the crowd tactics.

Southern Industrial drilled 21 exploration wells within a week, with amazing efficiency, but found nothing.

However, good news came from Hyundai Petroleum. Less than 21 kilometers away from Well No. 5 of Nanfang Industrial, Hyundai Petroleum drilled the seventh exploration well, and oil blooms have already appeared.

The scale seems to be tipping in favor of modern oil.

Qin Zhenjun, who was in charge of the Huaxia camp, couldn't sit still, and was about to rush to the No. 21 exploration well with his people, but saw Yao Yuan following him.

"Mr. Yao, I'll go to the site to command, and you stay in the camp." Qin Zhenjun persuaded, "The conditions in Well No. 21 are relatively poor, so it's not suitable for you to go."

Yao Yuan said, "I am also a poor child, and I have experienced even the worst conditions. Let's go, let's go together and set up the headquarters in the No. 21 well."

Qin Zhenjun no longer insisted, and a group of more than a dozen people flew to the No. 17 well 21 kilometers away in a Mi-[-] "Hippo" transport helicopter.

After arriving at Well No. 21, Qin Zhenjun started work immediately. Li Quanhui, the leader of the exploration team, reported, "The current position is 3200 meters, and Han Bangzi discovered the oil flower at the position of 3500 meters. What needs to be confirmed now is that according to the original plan Drill at 3200 meters or drill to 3500 meters?”

Regarding the issue of cost, Li Quan did not dare to make a claim.

The technician who followed said thoughtfully, "Well No. 21 is only five kilometers away from Well No. 7 of Hyundai Petroleum. I have studied the geological structure map of this area, and they belong to the same block."

He paused and said, "I suggest drilling to 3500 meters before making any plans."

In this industry, Yao Yuan can only be regarded as a person with a little common sense. He can't understand professional data, but he can understand what everyone is saying and knows what he is struggling with now.

Qin Zhenjun frowned, stared at the picture, and didn't speak for a long time.

The modern oil that is five kilometers away is seen at 3500 meters. It is obviously unreasonable for Southern Industrial to drill to 3200 meters. It should drill to 35000 meters or above to have a chance to see oil bearing layers.
