What changed the minds of foreign companies was a piece of news from TASS: Sioux City, a Chinese, was appointed vice president of the national oil company.

The big oil companies, like Dahua Industrial, have their own information bureaus. Although it is not necessary to train spies to do illegal things, it is normal to collect public information or hire some informants who are familiar with the local area.

State news agencies like TASS, Reuters, and the Associated Press are all publicly available. Companies or individuals who need it can easily get round-the-clock information rolling. However, it is not so easy to keep receiving information and analyzing it, and in a small way, it requires at least one office staff and funding.

Slightly smaller companies tend to save this money. Only large companies, or high-margin companies like Dahua Industrial, that value information, will pay for the collection and analysis of information themselves.

Therefore, don't look at just an ordinary TASS message, but the company that can get the news easily is often not simple.

The foreign companies that followed the big Michelin were still carrion-eaters, and they got information from their peers, or they just watched the movements of others, and at the same time increased the funds of the Dahua Poverty Alleviation Fund.

Sioux City picked up several important companies and signed contracts on the spot to reassure people. However, he signed either a downstream company or a small and medium-sized equipment manufacturing company, all of which are suppliers that Dahua Industrial needs. The most heart-wrenching oil cooperation contract is that not a single one has been signed.

A group of people surrounded him and knocked on the side, and when it came to the back, there was a Frenchman who asked directly in a Beijing accent: "Chairman of Sioux City, is Dahua Industrial willing to cooperate in oil production?"

Sioux City sat in the middle of the promenade. Leaning against the column, he smiled like a student on an outing, and said, "The oil field has not been seen, and there is no way to talk about cooperative oil production." ”

"Azerbaijan will definitely open up the oil industry, and when the time comes, Dahua Industrial will definitely enter it as soon as possible. We also want to enter the Azerbaijani oil industry as quickly as possible, and the cooperation will allow us to reap greater benefits. The Frenchman bit his tongue halfway through the speech, and the rest simply used the English language: "We have eight oil refineries around the world. With dozens of chartered ships and tens of thousands of petrol stations, we are able to deliver petroleum products to Europe as quickly as possible......"

He seems to be very powerful, and in terms of region, he is indeed very powerful. But tens of thousands of gas stations. Dozens of chartered ships and eight oil refineries can only be described as average in terms of the world. Regardless of the capacity of the refinery, the main value of the gas station is still on the license. As for its distribution capabilities, the bigger the upstream oilmen, the less they care.

When it comes to the scale of Dahua Industry today, Saiwan Ante is an ordinary medium-sized company, which is not excellent.

Nature. In the eyes of Sioux City, they are not competitive.

In fact, the people who come to see Sioux City now are already two beats slower companies.

The same French company. The largest Total Gen does not bother to pass through Sioux City, whether the president of Azerbaijan is Ellichbey or Aliyev, they will go to PR through their own channels.

Subordinate Fina Company. As early as when Aliyev was a little slight, he found Sioux City. As you can imagine. They will also find Hussein's strategy of the post-80s Shaolin abbot, although expensive, but safe, will not lose the contract because of government relations.

When it comes to this so-called Sevanant company, they have actually entered a state of "casual fate". Find a Frenchman who understands and try to impress Sioux City with words...... In the final analysis, it is fate, they estimate that they do this in the oil fields everywhere, and they can take advantage of a little advantage, but they do not have the confidence and persistence to pay a lot in one oil field.

In a small oil field, Su Cheng might have said a few words to him, but now he was not interested at all, and said lightly to the Frenchman: "Oil refining and sales channels are not what we have to consider now." If your company is really interested, you can contact us after we get the oil field and extract the oil. ”

The French hurriedly said: "We also have the ability to mine." ”

"Dahua Industrial also has. Su Cheng sneered in his heart: Do you want to enjoy the contract of the century without bloodshed? This kind of thing is not even the world's top 500, and BP knows to send some prostitutes to Azerbaijan for public relations......

The French, apparently not guessing that Sioux City had such a big heart, laughed and talked about the European market.

Sioux City simply brushed his face impatiently, as long as it was a few years, the energy market would be a pure seller's market, and Europe would have to think about where to import oil from, not about which company to exclude.

Iran, the axis of evil in later generations, has not been truly blocked by Europe and the United States, and it would be very easy for Dahua Industrial to enter the European market and sell oil.

Sioux City Root disdained a medium-sized, obscure regional company.

Several similar small companies reluctantly stepped aside.

Like the Chinese, foreigners also like to take advantage. Now that there are so few opportunities to take advantage, they naturally can't be happy.

Lin Yonggui has been an official in China for a long time, pays attention to harmony, and is more willing to unite foreigners, seeing this scene, Lin Yonggui came up with a smile and said with a smile: "I've been talking for a long time, why don't you go to dinner, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it after dinner." ”

Chubby looked up at the sky, it was only four or five o'clock, and it was a little early for dinner. However, he never objected to having an early meal, so he happily agreed: "I'll go and inform the hotel, let's go over there, or let them send it over?"

"It's good to go in the past, so as not to make a mess and spoil the freshly made nursery. Lin Yonggui patted Xiaopang and said with a smile: "I heard that the house was designed by you? ”

"I'm mainly an overseer. Xiaopang excused himself with pride, although the various high-tech used in this house was realized with the help of Dahua Laboratory, but it was also a talent to be able to use them.

In general, Chubby's talent is probably focused on spending money. In China in the early 90s, it was not easy to develop this ability.

Su Cheng was also tired of the continuous socializing, and got up with a smile and said, "Dinner will be arranged at the Majestic Hotel, it can be regarded as a dinner party of our Dawning Council, um." Before the Council is officially operational, I will pay for it. ”

Foreign charitable foundations tend to spend more than 50% of their donations on fundraising and management. It's one thing to do what domestic foundations do, it's another thing to behave like that.

Xiaopang didn't care who paid for it, stood up and hurriedly beckoned everyone to the hotel.

After a while, several Dahua managers also appeared in the courtyard, not only to greet everyone, but also to talk about more details of cooperation.

Not everyone is qualified to get involved in oil development, but below oil development. There is still a lot of related work, Dahua can't eat such a big plate, and it can't look at the meager profits, but other companies are not necessarily.

At dinner time, everyone continued to talk about oil and cooperation. Most of them are cooperation with Dahua Industrial, and some companies have also negotiated cooperation with each other, but the role of the Shuguang Council has played a role.

The next day was also a tea party for the Dawning Council.

It wasn't until the third day that experts from the Shengli Oilfield came to the capital.

They came in sleepers, which was pretty much the most high-end way to travel at this time, nevertheless. The two experts from the Drilling and Oil Production Research Institute are still very tired.

Yang Ming arranged them in the guest house of Dahua Laboratory, due to historical reasons, Dahua Industrial has many researchers from Shengli Oilfield, and the two of them have a very happy life.

But. When Lin Yonggui told them that the trip was to evaluate Dahua Industrial's tertiary oil recovery technology, the expressions of the two researchers were extremely exciting.

"Dean Qin and Director Yao used to be the masters of our drilling and oil production research institute, and they have done research for so many years. Dahua Laboratory must have mastered a lot. "Experts can only explain their capabilities in this way.

"How many are there?" Although Lin Yonggui has been focusing on production for many years, he has a good understanding of the level of the research institute. It is difficult for him to have a perceptual understanding, with the thinking mode of the Chinese people at this time, it must be the national team that has mastered the top technology, or in other words, it should be the national team. Shengli Oilfield, Daqing and Changqingji are the troika under the Petroleum Corporation, the level of the three is comparable, maybe Daqing is slightly stronger, but in terms of oil production technology, Shengli Oilfield has always developed the fastest because of its complex reservoir situation.

This time, Lin Yonggui hoped that the two experts would prove the strength of the Shengli Oilfield to Sioux City. There are not too many entanglements of interests, which can be regarded as a spiritual need.

In any case, he is also an official at the deputy ministerial level, and he also needs to prove himself.

Unfortunately, the two experts could not cooperate with him. The older researcher was entangled for a moment, and said: "I heard that Dahua Industry is preparing to develop the old oil field in Baku, which means that their level of tertiary oil recovery has reached the practical stage, and ours is not good." ”

At this moment, Lin Yonggui understood, and said in surprise: "Our tertiary oil recovery technology can't be used yet? What about other oil fields?"

"Our tertiary oil recovery technology is the best. The expert said in a low voice and said, "Our tertiary oil production institute has cooperated with the tertiary oil extraction institute of Dahua Industry before. Some of the researchers who quit later are all in our institute. Tertiary oil recovery in several other fields has only just begun. ”

"But it still can't be practical?"

"It's not a good deal. We have calculated that with the current technology, it takes more than 1,000 pieces to extract a ton of heavy oil, and the achievements of synthetic polymers alone are not counted. The older researcher explained.

The technology of tertiary oil recovery is based on forcing something into the reservoir in exchange for crude oil. The initial tertiary oil recovery technology mostly used steam, but its composition and energy composition are closely related, so there are later polymer flooding, carbon dioxide flooding and other technologies.

But no matter what kind of technology it is, the amount required is quite large, and the success will increase with the difficulty of tertiary oil recovery.

The younger researcher, who is also 40 years old, continued: "Actually, the crude oil we produce with tertiary oil recovery technology is still profitable. Because the main source of oil production is RMB, the crude oil obtained can be settled in US dollars, which is still cost-effective. ”

When Lin Yonggui heard this, he finally came to his senses and asked, "Then why don't you use it?"

"If you want industrial production, you can make a lot of investment at one time. Moreover, it is better to keep the crude oil and wait until the technology is mature. The older researcher was less eager, and took a slight drop of cold water.

Lin Yonggui groaned and asked: "So, what Dahua Industrial is doing in Baku is making a profit?"

"It's hard to say. Maybe...... Dahua Industrial's technology will be better. ”

"How low can you get it down?"

"It's hard to say. Maybe...... 20%?"

Lin Yonggui frowned, this time it was not because of his bad face, but because he was worried about Su Cheng.

The success of oil extraction cannot be calculated by the pure production of production.

Oil extraction in the Middle East is the lowest, with an average of less than $2, and in many places it is simply less than $1. But to say that the Middle East's oil is $2 is certainly not true.

All things considered, the average yield per barrel of crude oil for oil companies in the Middle East must have exceeded $8, and by 9495, it was not surprising that it exceeded $10. If it is a foreign company with a higher tax rate, or a company with a sharing agreement, it is normal for the rate to reach $20.

The gap between national oil companies and private oil companies is getting bigger and bigger over time. This point does not need to be reborn and crossed, as long as it is known in the industry, it can be seen clearly.

In other words, as a private company, going to Azerbaijan to exploit oil fields, non-exploitation is not low.

Sioux City started with the old Baku oil fields, and even if it can save some expenses for a short time, the high extraction success is not a good thing.

Abroad is not as good as at home, just thinking about so many polymers, transporting them from China to Azerbaijan is a lot of money.

In the end, it would be a shame if the value of the extracted oil was about the same as that of the extracted oil.

Not only is it a shame, but it may also cause criticism.

This time, the presidential election of Azerbaijan has attracted the attention of many high-level domestic officials, and the focus of attention is Dahua Industrial.

In 1993, China was already a net importer of crude oil, and China has always had a strong sense of crisis. Many people are optimistic about Sioux City, which can get crude oil for China.

Lin Yonggui knows very well the preciousness of this kind of "optimism", and it would be a pity if it was lost because of the old oil fields in Baku.

This kind of thinking cannot be made public. Lin Yonggui's eyes froze, and he said: "You are not allowed to mention the matter of the three oil extractions, and you are not allowed to mention the matter of Dahua again, in the past two days, you have a good time in the capital, and after you go back, you will say that you are here to consult me, and you are not allowed to say anything else." ”

The older expert was very embarrassed and said: "We have all studied oil production three times, and many people know about this time." ”

"Write out the names of those who know, and I'll let them know one by one. "Lin Yonggui, who has experienced the sports era, knows too well how to deal with this kind of thing. He is not only ready to block the news from his side, but also to help Sioux City block news from other aspects.
