Chapter 1148: Big Heart

In a short period of time, Anglo American Group was crippled by the Sunshine Star Group, but this is not a war between countries to destroy the country, and now it has entered the stage of trying to "reconcile" between the two sides: for the sake of money and life, most of these people have nothing that cannot be compromised, to put it bluntly, it is the redistribution of interests, some people are frustrated and some are proud.

It's not bad for losers to be disappointed, and many people have no chance of being disappointed!

The use of oil resources in the Gulf of Mexico is basically seabed oil extraction, with water levels ranging from a few meters to three or four hundred meters, and the water depth of the new oil fields shown on this data is between 20 meters and 350 meters, which is relatively easy to exploit.

Of course, the new oil fields are not in the extremely shallow coastal seas, and those sea areas have long been explored, and they are all owned.

If you want to intervene, you have to go into deep water, and the shallow sea has no part for you!

Zhang Nan didn't understand undersea oil exploitation, so he watched American movies in his last life, as if there was a movie in it that said that a comet hit the earth, and the screenwriter opened his mind to let a group of oil drillers land on the comet in a spaceship, drill a hole in the comet, and stuff a nuclear bomb into it.

Wrong!

I seem to have seen two similar movies, anyway, in the end, it was the American hero who stepped forward to save the earth, and the main theme of the United States was propaganda!

Hollywood publicity, other Zhang Nan didn't remember much, but he felt that those drilling platform bosses were absolutely super expensive!

However, the drilling platform of the United States in the previous life was not the most expensive, and Huaxia should have built the world's largest deep-sea oil drilling platform later, which cost five or six billion yuan!

This price...

It can't be simply described as burning money, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a gold-swallowing monster, but the wealth that can be created is also considerable, if you can find enough oil.

As soon as Nicole decided to invest in the Gulf of Mexico subsea oil exploration project, Zhang Nan thought about the profit ratio and the payback time.

With three new oil fields, you can't just invest in one rig, right?

Anyway, there is definitely a lot of money to be smashed into it first.

He really doesn't understand, either he has no money or picks the door, or he is curious.

For her man's question, Nicole said: "According to the current market situation, the new cost of the platform with a water depth of more than 300 feet is at least 100 million US dollars, the cost of manpower and equipment accessories, and then subtracting the depreciation of the equipment, the daily output is 5,000 barrels, half of the profit, five or six years."

This is not counting the sea area exploitation lease rights and supporting costs, the most important thing is fixed assets, and the slow return on investment is not a problem, and the oil company has to be listed independently.

As long as you can take this piece, just wait to count the money.

At the beginning, you can rent an oil exploration platform first, and as for the shallow sea area of the oil production platform, you can continue to order it in Huaxia, the price is reasonable and the quality is reliable, and the construction period will never be delayed.

The deep sea is not in a hurry, I tend to make it in Huaxia, if the shipyard over there can afford it. ”

The drilling platform is divided into oil exploration platform and oil production platform, the former is expensive and the latter is cheap, this Zhang Nan figured it out, but what does this "continue" mean?

"Continue?"

Zhang Nan was a little confused, he had ordered a drilling platform in Huaxia?

In this regard, Nicole glanced at her man, "9 years ago, Huaxia Da-Lian Shipyard built two BIGFOOT-III. 30-meter jack-up offshore oil drilling platforms for Baker Company, everyone likes to call it Bigfoot III, with a working water depth of 30 meters and a drilling depth of 7620 meters, all of which are controlled by computers and hydraulic transmissions.

Baker uses them in the Benin Sea to operate on a world-class platform of world-class quality.

This time, we negotiated an offshore oil exploration agreement with Angola, and directly ordered five big feet and three improved models from that shipyard, and the contracts for the first two were signed, and you big boss don't know about it?"

Zhang Nan looked confused.

Nicole shook her head and said, "Forget it, you really don't know, just buy some equipment, and the project managers in charge won't report to you." ”

Paul, who was also in the restaurant, had long been accustomed to the strange way of handling things between his boss and several proprietresses, and Zhang Nan had achieved the ultimate in the style of throwing off the shopkeeper in business.

As for Andrei who shook his head when he heard it, he was a red devil, and he had heard about the drilling platform construction business between China and the United States more than 10 years ago: it was the first time that China exported offshore oil drilling platforms, and the Soviet Union would have noticed.

I don't have much of an impression, but a big guy with a length and width of nearly 50 meters, will this be cheap?

The reason why the boss of such a business will not know is that the managers of the companies responsible for this big project below think that the boss does not care about such a transaction at all, or simply does not think that it has always been the case.

How big does such a financial empire have to be, and how big is the boss's experience?

Anything will be exhausting, nothing will collapse the empire, Andrei knows this, and the boss will react with no anger at all...

Zhang Nan said something that made Andre have to admit: This boss's heart can really be as big as a car tire!

"I don't understand. But this is big-even I've been there, the seafood is good, and we'll have a chance to rub it in the future. ”

It's not this life, it's the previous life, and the big Lian is already a modern city.

Speaking of this seafood, Zhang Nan suddenly said: "I haven't been fishing at sea for a long time, and I will go out in a few days." ”

The "Star" has already returned, and it will be on the newly built trestle, and yesterday it took a group of family members of the Red Devil to wander around the sea.

This was obviously a distraction, and after being glanced at by Nicole, she stopped and turned the conversation back.

"You have to compete with other companies for lease rights. ”

Nicole laughed, "It's not just competition, the U.S. side needs the president to directly authorize the auction of the oil exploration lease rights in the Gulf of Mexico, which requires friends to play a role."

As for the Mexican side, the same way of operation is done, and it will not be done in a while.

Now there are a total of 36 large-scale oil production platforms in the entire Gulf of Mexico, and it is difficult to find enough resources, so we have to thank Anglo American for helping us do the most time-consuming things first. ”

Zhang Nan didn't mess around anymore, and said: "I'm not worried about the lease rights in the United States, but it may be more difficult to do in Mexico, and I'm sitting on the ground." ”

"Mexico's biggest sitting tiger is their president, talk slowly.

And then there's the fact that President Carlos is leading the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) this year, which I think will quickly lead to the collapse of Mexico's economy, and he's going to need a couple of straws. ”

It's not oil exploitation in territorial waters, but one of the newly discovered oil fields is just thirty or forty nautical miles off the coast of Mexico, and that's someone else's territory.
