Spring Breeze 1991

The visualized underwater detection technology project team is all young men in their 20s. It is the first time to go abroad, and it is the first time to fly in a plane. It is still the legendary special plane, which makes them talk nonsense all the way.

Not long after entering Spring Breeze Academy of Sciences, they heard from other employees that if the business trip destination is more than [-] kilometers away, they usually take a round trip by plane.

Young scientific researchers yearn for it, especially newcomers who have just entered the job.

Unexpectedly, there was an opportunity to fly [-] kilometers to distant Central Asia by special plane.

After arriving in Almaty, something unexpected happened again. The personnel and equipment were transferred directly to the An-12 medium-sized transport plane at the airport and took off again, and flew westward for more than 1000 kilometers. International airports are much smaller airports to land at.

Before they could react, the ground crew transferred the equipment to the Mi-17 transport helicopter, and a comrade in charge informed them to board the helicopter.

After everything was ready, two Mi-17 transport helicopters carrying them and equipment took off and flew northwestward, and landed on the field helicopter landing pad in the operation area more than half an hour later.

This is the destination.

From Nangang International Airport to Almaty, from Almaty to Atyrau Airport, and then from Atyrau Airport to the field helicopter take-off and landing field in the No. The air transportation line of the No. [-] operation area.

Among them, Nangang-Almaty is operated by New United Airlines, Almaty-Atyrau is operated by New North General Aviation, and the helicopter at Atyrau Airport-No. [-] operation area is jointly provided and carried by New North General Aviation and the Kazakh military .

Kazakhstan's own air transportation capacity is very limited. Under such circumstances, Xinbei General Aviation, a joint venture between China Southern Industry and Xinjian Group, which mainly serves oil pipelines, has obtained the aviation operation right issued by the Kazakh government.

Under such circumstances, New North General Aviation purchased more than a dozen medium-sized transport aircraft and regional airliners, mainly An-12, to support the business development in Kazakhstan.

Oil exploration is a golden coin when a cannon fires, and the guarantee of logistics materials alone is an expense that makes many companies daunting.

Among the oil regions in the world, the cost of oil extraction in the Middle East is the lowest, so low that it only needs a hoe to dig out the underground oil, and all of them are high-quality light crude oil.

The cost of oil extraction in Saudi Arabia was even as low as US$0.5 a barrel at one point.

In the Middle East, the mining cost of the Shikotan Oilfield is among the highest. Although it is located in the nearshore area, the sea area where the oil well is located is more than 1000 meters deep, so the mining cost is very high.

Even so, the production cost of each barrel of crude oil in the Shidan Oilfield did not exceed US$5 per barrel, and Dongfang Oilfield’s own production can reduce the production cost to the level of US$3.

In contrast, in Kazakhstan, the production cost of the Makshay Oilfield is as high as 8 US dollars, which does not include transportation costs!

After the three young men from the visual underwater detection technology project team and the three assistant researchers assigned to them arrived at the No. [-] operation area, they actually saw the big boss!

The project these three guys are in charge of belongs to one of the thousands of ordinary projects in the Spring Breeze Academy of Sciences. Even in famous research institutions in the West, there are no assistants, but in the Spring Breeze Academy of Sciences, as long as you can become a researcher.

The three young men all had good inventions and creations during their school days, and they were formal researchers when they joined the Spring Breeze Academy of Sciences.

Yao Yuan greeted them with a smile, and asked straight to the point.

One of the young men thought for a while, and said awkwardly, "Dean, the underwater robot we made works underwater. If it is underground, there is no way to put it down."

Yao Yuan walked over and looked around the equipment. The terminal was a slightly crude underwater robot. It was already very powerful to make a usable robot in the 90s. Roughness is nothing.

After looking at it for a while, Yao Yuan's eyes fell on the control harness, and he turned to Qin Zhenjun and said, "Actually, we only need a camera and lighting."

"Well, at least figure out the water depth, flow velocity, and river width. There is no relevant technology for three-dimensional detection." Qin Zhenjun said.

Yao Yuan pointed to the robot and said, "Take the robot out, and you can make a small terminal on site that can go underground through the drilling pipeline. Can you do it?"

The three boys looked at each other, and the one who spoke just now gritted his teeth and said, "We need special materials, here... there are no conditions here."

"I will make a list of what materials are needed, and I will ask the rear to transport them by air," Yao Yuan said.

The young man hesitated, gritted his teeth again, and said, "It can be done!"

Yao Yuan was not so easy to talk, and asked with a smile, "How long will it take?"

"A week...five days!" replied the young man.

"Okay, I'll give you five days."

After a few words and a few words, Yao Yuan went to the drilling side.

The three boys breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice, "Dean Yao's aura is so strong, my calves were shaking just now."

"Didn't you hear what the old people said, Dean Yao is also a technical expert, a serious postgraduate student majoring in mechanical engineering at Western Polytechnic University."

"The first product developed by our Spring Breeze Academy of Applied Technology is the double donkey head oil extraction machine, which was developed by Dean Yao."

"He seems to be a year or two younger than us..."

Not to mention the emotion of the young researcher, Yao Yuan was watching the progress of the drilling on the spot.The material was taken every 50 meters for analysis, and no oil and gas was found.

Yao Yuan was very stable, waiting patiently with his arms folded.

Every time he collected materials, he personally tested them and discussed various possibilities with Qin Zhenjun.

The local daytime maximum temperature reached [-] degrees, and the temperature dropped sharply to minus seven or eight degrees, with a huge temperature difference.

Workers sweat profusely during the day, and at night the hot air will form frost on the masks.

The weather forecast said that there would be heavy snow in the evening, and Yao Yuan ordered the drilling team to stop all activities around [-]:[-] pm, and everyone went back to the board room to rest and recuperate.

Chinese workers are famous all over the world for their hard work, but that doesn't mean they have to.

Dongfang Petroleum’s living security measures are in place. The prefabricated houses for field operations developed by the Spring Breeze Academy of Sciences can withstand strong winds and snowstorms of level 10. They have a comprehensive constant temperature system, and they are more comfortable in the prefabricated houses than at home. After all, not every household has air conditioner.

After dinner, Yao Yuan and Qin Zhenjun drank tea in the office while slowly flipping through the latest geological report.Dongfang Petroleum Geology Institute has two scientists in the No. [-] operation area, and they have a geological analysis room equipped with computers.

A young geological scientist in his forties entered the data obtained today into the computer model, and after pressing the start button, he felt a gust of cold wind blowing into his neck from behind. He got up and closed the window that had not been closed. After a while, I looked outside, and it was snowing all over the sky.

After closing the window and returning to the workstation, the model pops up a prompt box.

The young geologist froze for a moment, stared at the reminder box and looked carefully, suspecting that he had misread it, and looked carefully again.

That's right.

His pupils suddenly dilated!
