Spring Breeze 1991

Well 21 was in charge of the exploration team of Shengli Oilfield. Captain Li Quan was very experienced. Qin Zhenjun saw that he was hesitant to speak, and asked, "Captain Li, tell me your opinion."

Li Quan knew Yao Yuan, and almost all the exploration team members knew Yao Yuan, because Yao Yuan personally sent each exploration team off from the camp.

He thought for a while and said, "I personally think it should go according to the original plan."

He wiped his oily hands, pointed to the blueprints on the marching table, and said, "Hyundai Petroleum's No. 7 well is lower than ours, so we should drill deeper, but if that's the case, We have to overturn all our previous analysis, that is to say, the conclusions we have drawn in the past period of time are wrong. This is not a problem with Well 21, but the basis of the entire exploration work has changed.”

What Li Quan mentioned was the basic theoretical problem of the entire exploration work. Obviously, compared with a well, this problem is much more serious.

At this time, Yao Yuan had a better understanding of the oil exploration work, and the description of the gold-swallowing beast was not enough to explain the huge amount of money required for this work.

In the early 90s, the Seven Sisters of Petroleum spent hundreds of millions and billions of dollars on exploration every year. I didn’t feel much just looking at the numbers. I didn’t feel deeply until I saw the tens of millions of daily expenditures on the account, even though it was Huaxia coins.

At this time, Lin Wei, who was on the phone over there, ran over and said, "Modern oil has started drilling, and it is said that the oil production rate is very high, and Garotwich is over there."

Everyone is tense. If modern oil is the first to produce oil and the exploration wells produce variable wells, the victory will be theirs.

Qin Zhenjun was very calm. He said, "Mr. Yao, I decided to follow the original plan. I believe that the judgment made by our team is accurate."

Proceeding according to the original plan means that if there is no oil, but the Korean side produces oil, Southern Industrial will lose in this racing exploration.

This decision needs Yao Yuan to make.

Everyone thought that Yao Yuan would be hesitant, but to everyone's surprise, Yao Yuan said very simply, "Director Qin, I trust your judgment, the team's judgment, and agree to implement the original plan."

Qin Zhenjun waved his hand, "Captain Li, punch!"

"Yes!"

Li Quan stood at attention like a soldier, turned around and led the workers to work.

Everyone stood at the temporary headquarters and watched the workers work, and Lin Wei was always paying attention to the situation at Hyundai Petroleum.

If it is fast, it only takes one hour for Hyundai Petroleum's No. 7 well to produce results.

Simply put, finding out the location of underground oil through various means is called oil exploration. Because the underground structure is complex, oil exploration is like a blind man trying to figure out an elephant. Often after paying a huge price, the oil-bearing layer cannot be determined, and if the oil-bearing layer cannot be found, it cannot continue. The following oil production work, exploration failed.

Lin Wei finished talking on the phone again, and amidst the booming sound of the machine, said, "They're getting off the oil pipe."

"Is it oily?" Yao Yuan was taken aback.

Lin Wei shook his head, "I didn't say anything, I just said I got off the tubing."

"Ask clearly, is the oil pipe down or out?" Yao Yuan said.

Lin Wei was puzzled, "Didn't the oil come out when you put it down?"

"Not necessarily." Qin Zhenjun took over the conversation and said, "Sometimes if the location hit is a small oil layer, it is also worthless to exploit."

Lin Wei said, "I'll ask right away, Xiaohu has been staring over there."

Lin Xiaohu brought a few people to guard the No. 7 well of Hyundai Petroleum, and paid close attention to the progress of the opponent's work. Similarly, Hyundai Petroleum and New Daily Chemicals had people following the exploration team of Southern Industrial Co., Ltd. all the way. within.

This time, Lin Xiaohu didn't reply for a long time,

Feeling a little hot, Lin Wei took off his coat, and a Russian girl next to him hurriedly took his coat and held it in his hand. Lin Wei couldn't help but glance at the Russian girl, and then at Yao Yuan.

Yao Yuan pointed to the Russian girl and said, "Oh, the translator for you, Karina."

"Hello, Mr. Lin." Karina spoke Mandarin with a Northeast taste.

Lin Wei was surprised, "You speak Mandarin so well."

"I studied in Harbin and learned Mandarin for more than three years," Karina said.

Lin Wei nodded slightly, and couldn't help but look at Karina a few more times. The Russian girl is really beautiful, and this one in front of her is even more outstanding, and she is quite young, but there is some melancholy between her eyebrows and eyes.

I was about to return home after finishing my studies, but the country was gone, and it was hard for anyone to accept it.

For Karina, not only the previously confirmed unit is gone, but also the living allowance is gone.Just imagine, millions of troops are forced to exchange their weapons for money to make a living, not to mention their public descendants who have studied abroad.

When Dongfang Petroleum Service Company under Southern Industrial was recruiting personnel in the Northeast and Far East regions, Karina and several other students participated in the application, and officially joined the Overseas Business Department of Dongfang Petroleum Service Company and became a translator.

Because Karina's second major is international accounting, she was assigned to Lin Wei as an assistant and translator.

Waiting is exhausting, Yao Yuanhe doesn't like the initiative to be in the hands of others, this feeling makes him feel uneasy.

Time passed by, and Li Quan reported the progress again. In another half an hour, the drilling can be completed, and then the oil can be tested.

Qin Zhenjun was very calm. After studying all the data in hand again, he said, "According to Galotovich's request, the contract can only be won if the daily output is more than 10 tons. Hyundai Petroleum's No. 7 well has little hope."

He explained, "Li Quan's opinion is correct. In the same reservoir, the depth theory is not the only criterion. We have done a lot of research and analysis before, and the data obtained from the previous few wells also support our conclusion. .”

Based on the size of Garotwich Petroleum Company, only a daily output of more than 10 tons has commercial exploitation value, otherwise it is impossible to maintain the company's operations.

1吨石油等于7.35桶，按照现在每桶23美元来算，日产10吨的采油井每天能提供约1700美元的石油，一个月是约50000美元。

Just enough to keep operations going.

Yao Yuan said, "Director Qin, I trust your judgment, and do it boldly. Take a step back and say, even if we lose, it will be a rare exercise for our team."

Qin Zhenjun said in his heart that what he got was basically the teams from major domestic oil fields. Dongfang Petroleum Service Company only had three improvised exploration teams, and they paid tens of millions of Huaxia coins just to train the three rabble. This is a loss.

He is very clear that even if there is an official coordination, or even an administrative order issued by the Petroleum Corporation, it still needs to pay a huge economic price for Southern Industrial to organize so many exploration teams to carry out exploration work here far away.

For example, in the Shengli Oilfield, where Yao Yuan used his spare time to draw the blueprint of the double-headed oil extraction machine from memory a few days ago, after applying for patent protection, it was initially produced by the Petroleum Machinery Factory of Daqing Oilfield, and was successfully sold to Harry. Burton.

In order to get the support of Shengli Oilfield, Yao Yuan shared the double-head oil extraction machine technology with Shengli Oilfield for free. That is to say, Shengli Oilfield can produce double-head oil extraction machines for its own oil field without paying a penny of patent fees.

With tens of thousands of double-head oil extraction machines, Shengli Oilfield can save more than 2000 million Huaxia coins in patent royalties.

No matter how rich and powerful Shengli Oilfield is, it is impossible to turn a blind eye to more than 2000 million Huaxia coins.

For Yao Yuan, the significance of oil exploration in the Tyumen Oilfield is not in economic interests, but in representing the first time that Huaxia Petroleum Corporation has gone abroad to compete with international rivals, and in laying the groundwork for the next step in the Baku Oilfield in Azerbaijan. bidding.

He must have a professional team with experience in overseas exploration.

Yao Yuan really didn't take Garrotvic's $5000 million contract bonus seriously. If it weren't for the fact that only Han Bangzi and Little Japan were left as opponents, he would never have invested in fifty exploration teams in one go.

"The last twenty exploration teams will start exploration tomorrow at the latest." Qin Zhenjun reminded Yao Yuan.

Yao Yuan nodded slightly, understanding Qin Zhenjun's implication.

If the No. 21 well produces results, then the other [-] exploration teams do not need to carry out exploration according to the original plan, which can save a lot of money.

"They're out of gas." Lin Wei yelled with the satellite phone in his hand still attached to his ear.

Everyone was shocked.

Lin Wei hurriedly walked to Yao Yuan's side, "A Yuan, what should I do?"

Qin Zhenjun couldn't help staring at Yao Yuan. At this time, every decision Yao Yuan made would affect the direction of millions of dollars of funds.

"How much is the Nissan?" Yao Yuan asked.

Lin Wei shook his head, "I don't know yet, Brother Hu said they are trying."

Yao Yuan said in a deep voice, "Director Qin, proceed according to the established plan."

"Okay." Qin Zhenjun couldn't stand anymore, took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves and walked over to join the work team.

What are the casinos in Alaska? Oil exploration is the most thrilling gamble in the world. It costs tens of millions of dollars or hundreds of millions of dollars. It only needs one decision.

Yao Yuan's decision to follow the established plan means that he firmly believes that the previous judgments and conclusions are correct, that all the exploration teams will proceed as planned, and that millions of dollars in exploration funds will continue to be spent.

"Yes, it's okay, maybe we can produce more oil, and we can still beat Han Bangzi." Lin Wei comforted himself with a strong smile.

Indeed, according to the rules, if oil is produced on the same day, whoever has a higher daily output will win the contract and have the last laugh.

It was already past noon, and no one was in the mood to eat.

A few jeeps drove over the muddy road, and Galotovich came, as did Kim Jae-hyun and Qian Zhongxinyi. They were chatting and laughing with Galotovich, and they were already celebrating their victory.

The South Korean team celebrated their victory ahead of schedule.
