Spring Breeze 1991

Yao Yuan called Qin Zhenjun and asked in an unprecedented serious tone, "Uncle Qin, can a mass production well be drilled in the No. [-] operation area? Even if it is a well with a daily output of [-] to [-] tons."

Oil wells with a daily output of [-] to [-] tons barely have the value of exploitation. In foreign countries, oil wells with daily output of this kind are usually sold by oil companies to small oil companies, because the cost of extraction is much higher than the value of output.

In China, oil wells with a daily output of less than five tons will be included in the ranks of abandoned wells, and contracted to individuals for mining. Private companies and self-employed usually do not have secondary extraction technology, they just extract a few tons of unplanned oil and sell it to make some money , This amount of money is a lot for an individual, but it is impossible for the oil field to make ends meet.

Although Qin Zhenjun didn't know what Yao Yuan's plan was, but at this time he asked whether the No. [-] operation area could find a worthwhile oil well, which showed that the answer was very important.

After pondering for a moment, Qin Zhenjun said, "The three guys from the visual underwater detection team will change tomorrow to install a terminal that can go down the oil pipe to detect. A Yuan, I can only tell you that there is a certain probability, but I can't guarantee the exact number. You also know that the probability of an oil formation near a gold mine is very low."

Yao Yuan pondered, and said, "Try to get the results in three days. Now the situation has changed. Tomorrow, we will start transferring personnel to Bemut in batches. Liu Yi and those two workers...stop their work first, and conduct political review at the same time." , As for the specific arrangements, I will let Xiaohu decide."

"Okay, I see." Qin Zhenjun wrote it down.

After hanging up the phone, Yao Yuan went through the matter from beginning to end, and made sure that this matter can be dealt with later under the condition of controlling the news. He temporarily put 2000 tons of gold aside and concentrated his energy on the Bemut oil field. piece.

Do the immediate thing first, the 2000 tons of gold can't escape underground, but now it is urgent to find new oil fields in the Kashagan area.

Under the leadership of Gu Peiqiang, the drilling team mainly used machinery and supplemented by labor. It took less than an hour to clean up the abandoned well. The tools cut into average sections are piled not far away.These rusty steels are not waste, they are cut and distributed consciously, and they can be used as backup steel for emergency repairs and drilling.

Gu Peiqiang and the others are very experienced in doing these things, they don't even need a ruler to measure, their eyes are the ruler.

After the new drilling rig was erected, Gu Peiqiang came to report, "Mr. Yao, we plan to find out the situation in the well first, and then use the method of water injection to log the well."

The water source of that well is very abundant. When there is sufficient water source, water is used as a substitute to increase the tension on the underground crude oil and "drive" the crude oil up.

There are three secondary oil recovery technologies, water, gas, and polymer. The principle is very simple. The oil is pumped underground to increase the tension of the crude oil so that the crude oil reaches a level that can be pumped up by the oil extraction machine.Among them, polymer is a relatively advanced driving method. The viscosity of water is increased through water-soluble polymers. In plain English, it is to make water very viscous, and then inject this agent into the ground to drive scattered crude oil to gather together...

To put it simply, the primary oil recovery is a virgin, and it will spray out after one touch. To the extent that it is out, the tertiary oil recovery is even more outrageous, and it needs to use drugs to change the molecular properties to achieve the goal...

From the perspective of cost, primary oil recovery, secondary oil recovery, and tertiary oil recovery increase in a step-by-step manner.

The Shikotan Oilfield is a typical primary oil recovery oilfield. All the oil wells are self-flowing wells. In other words, there is no need for your intervention. The crude oil is sprayed out from the ground by itself. You just need to connect the pipeline and transport it to the oil storage ship. The cost is as low as Outrageous.

Nearly half of the oil wells in the Baku Oilfield have used secondary oil recovery technology, mainly the polymer flooding method developed by the Spring Breeze Academy of Oil Production. Not much more than water drive, but more than 37% more efficient.

There is a chemical plant under Southern Industrial that specializes in the production of chemicals needed by oil companies. Oil displacement polymers are the main product, with annual sales exceeding [-] million U.S. dollars.

It is conceivable how nervous the higher ups were when Yao Yuan started to move Nanfang Industrial to Hong Kong.

Gu Peiqiang's idea is very simple. When the water source is abundant, the polymer can be left in a bag, which is all money.

Yao Yuan thinks more, whether at home or abroad, environmental protection is an eternal theme, and it will even become a strategic weapon in international political struggles in the future.

To fully adapt to international competition, Dongfang Petroleum must not only be on par with foreign companies in every aspect, but also do better than them, including environmental protection standards.

Based on this, Yao Yuan said, "Let's use polymers to drive oil, unless it is a last resort, try not to use water to drive, and leave some resources for future generations, maybe in 200 years this will become our territory, right? "

Gu Peiqiang said with a smile, "Mr. Yao, you really know how to joke. Okay, then use polymer to drive oil."

When the One Belt One Road strategy is fully implemented and the currency and roads are unified, the national borders that only exist on the map are ethereal to weak countries.

Every Chinese student who graduated from primary school knows that the reason why Qin Shihuang was able to unify China and establish a centralized political system relied on two foundations. First, he unified the currency, and second, he unified the road standards.

The United States relies on the dollar to harvest the world, will it be limited by national borders?

Yao Yuan collected his emotions, walked towards the drilling rig, and made preparations for drilling with the workers.The big boss treats himself as an ordinary worker, and the workers are still working hard, and the efficiency has improved a lot.

After preliminary exploration, it was discovered that the well had already been drilled relatively deep. At an altitude of tens of meters, the well was drilled to nearly a thousand meters, which was almost the limit of exploration and mining technology at that time.

What caught Yao Yuan's attention was that the depth of nearly [-] meters was not drilled at one time, but was drilled three times back and forth, and the traces were very obvious.

Obviously, when the daily output dropped significantly, the Soviet engineers used such a simple and crude method of continuing to drill down twice in a row. It was not until the daily output dropped sharply again after a depth of nearly [-] meters that they were given up.

Gu Peiqiang is very cautious about continuing to drill down or logging on the original basis, which involves exploration costs.

He has always had such a character, even if he is already the captain of the world-renowned oil drilling team.

He is waiting for Yao Yuan's decision.
