For oil companies, no matter how good the plan is, it still has to be landed in the oil field. Oil companies with high oil production can be rock solid even if the cost is huge, and oil companies with low oil production are like rootless duckweed, even if they are very profitable.

Su Cheng has long been ready to follow the high production capacity of the Azijiu oil field, in fact, since acquiring the Azijiu oil field, he has ordered the strategic division and the information bureau to do secret planning, and must see more and more oil producing wells as quickly as possible.

The high yield of the first well is conditional on the huge pressure underground, the oil well with a production of 10,000 tons is not so easy to maintain, after doing a good job of oil and gas separation and oil-water separation, the downhole pressure is still inevitably reduced with the injection of crude oil, although it will not immediately enter the secondary oil recovery stage, but with the current petroleum technology, a single well in the oil production stage to maintain the level of 10,000 tons, how much it is necessary to have some luck, that is mostly related to the geological conditions of the downhole, such as local pressure accumulation can extend the life of the oil well for a production of oil, but in the predictable thirty or forty yearsIt is impossible for technology to accurately depict the geological structure of thousands of meters underground, in other words, after everything that can be done, there will always be a part of it that hits the big luck.

The enviable 70,000 barrels of the first oil well will inevitably fall back. The only way to quickly achieve high productivity in the Azijiu Oilfield is to quickly drill a second well, a third well......

It proves that there are large oil fields, and that the existence of large oil fields can be made through the futures market. Whether it is for the need for hedging or pure speculation, oil companies and oil futures have always been the bulk of the financial market, and in China, which has not yet joined the WTO, Dahua Industrial will be sorry if it does not make a few insider transactions.

As for the WTO accession, there is no need to worry, because insider trading is an accusation that is very difficult to establish, and if it is a listed company in Europe and the United States, it may still look at the face of the Securities Commission, and if it is a little more low-key, foreign non-listed companies do not need to do so, and there is no problem in throwing them in the face.

Under normal circumstances, securities management agencies in Europe and the United States rarely conduct such investigations, and if they delay for a few years, they may even have to pass the validity period of the lawsuit.

The good wishes are broken down layer by layer, and finally they have to land on the offshore drilling platform.

Although production wells are simpler than exploration wells, it is also hard work.

This is especially true for workers on drilling platforms.

Harsh natural conditions, an environment that is not 100% safe, and enormous pressure have always loomed over the minds of drilling workers.

The hired foreign workers are just that, Dahua Industrial's own workers are single-mindedly speeding up, and the company encourages high efficiency, and the five operating drilling platforms are holding back their energy to compete.

If you win at this time, not only honors and bonuses, but also the possibility of going further on the "special contribution list", no matter from which point of view, you need to compete for the first.

In the eyes of the visitors, the Dahua workers at this time were somewhat desperate.

The pennant "rì into a thousand feet" hanging on the other side of the deck in the wind is even more reminiscent.

"As long as the footage exceeds 1,000 kilometers on any day, the team will issue pennants. "Yang Ming has used Chinese and English, but the foreign language is lame and difficult to understand.

"1,000 feet?" Wang Dehuang thought, as far as the offshore drilling platform is concerned, this number is very high, if it can be maintained at the corresponding level, the oil production well can be drilled very quickly.

Su Cheng responded with a smile: "Now, the five drilling platforms should have all received a thousand-foot pennant." One of them is a drilling rig that was reached close to rì. ”

"After confirming the depth of the field?"

"That's right. ”

"So, Dahua knows a lot about the geological conditions below?" Wang Dehuang used to judge the condition of the Dahua oilfield.

However, Sioux City's confidence in the Azijiu oil field was not provided by the geological report, and he would not just take out the geological report, which would be counterproductive.

Therefore, Su Cheng smiled and said nothing, so that Wang Dehuang and the others couldn't guess his thoughts.

Yang Ming took over and said: "What we know about the following is speculation after all, and everything depends on the results of drilling. ”

Wang Dehuang was dumbfounded, as far as the current technology is concerned, the final result always depends on the drilling results, and there is no geological report that can clearly tell the real situation underground, but there are always some signs that represent a relatively large probability, and some other signs represent a relatively small probability...... If he could see the information about the former, he would naturally be able to give a judgment that he would lean towards the big oil fields.

Su Cheng didn't mean to make a special trip, and accompanied a few foreigners to talk, before turning his head and asking, "Do you have any belongings with you, we are going to stay at sea for a few days, and we also recommend that you stay." ”

"Living on the drilling platform?" Wang Dehuang was surprised: "There is no place to live." ”

They had taken a big turn underneath before, and the most impressive thing was the crampedness of the living space.

Yang Ming explained: "Living on a training wheel, it will drive over in the evening, and tomorrow at 8 o'clock in the morning, it will drive away, just get off the boat early." ”

"Why live at sea?"

"Because another offshore drilling platform, 503, has been drilled to 2,500 meters, and the results can be seen at any time in the last three days. Sioux City's voice floated in the sea breeze: "The last oil well saw oil at 2860 meters, if it is the same oil field, it is very promising to see crude oil in a short time." ”

"What if you see crude oil?" Wang Dehuang didn't quite understand, and the two oil wells could not prove the existence of a large oil field.

Su Cheng smiled and said, "You guys rest for a while, and when the training wheel comes, we will go directly to the place where 503 is located." ”

He gestured ahead and couldn't see anything.

Several foreigners all showed excited looks.

Wang Dehuang was even more puzzled, and whispered to the people of the inspection group: "What is there to be excited about? Has it become a miracle that two oil wells have come out of one oil field?"

"Unless it's not an oil field. Shi Wanke was familiar with the operation of offshore oil fields, and also lowered his voice and said: "Dahua has prepared a total of eight offshore drilling platforms, and now five are built.

Just a few days ago, these rigs were still in a state of exploration, so it is normal to spread over as wide an area as possible.

Wang Dehuang nodded slowly, and said: "What do they mean when they deliberately say 2860 meters." ”

"If two fields far apart have the same source, it's not surprising that the depths are similar. Schwanke speculated as he thought back to numerous theories of oil generation.

In the 90s, or until 20 years later, there was no universally recognized authoritative theory of oil generation, and the theory of biogenesis, which was once used to explain the scarcity of oil, is showing more and more flaws. However, although the explanation of the source is difficult to convince the public, the theoretical system is relatively complete in terms of the distribution of oil fields.

Whether two oil fields or one oil field have been found, at this stage, is to be theoretically applied.

The most important thing is that in the capital market, sensitive investors will also believe in such theories.

The representatives of the companies invited by Sioux City were both witnesses and participants.

Beginning the next day, Wang Dehuang and others, who were dizzy from the noise all night, officially started their own inspection trip.

Schwanke took the opportunity to apply to live on an offshore drilling platform, but after being refused, he went to the platform early in the morning and returned in the evening.

Su Cheng and the others got together and kept holding secret meetings.

When it comes to huge sums of money and insider deals, the coordination of the seven companies is not easy, and there is no more secrecy and appropriateness than for an offshore rig.

The most pitiful were the two pure administrative officials, who had been sent to deal with the "little ghosts", hoping to get first-hand information to judge the size of Dahua's oil fields.

It's a pity that the workers on the drilling platform and the "imps" of the administrative department are two frequency bands, and the two are useless.

At noon on the third day, the footage of Rig 503 reached 2,860 meters.

Wang Dehuang waited with great anticrisy for them to test the oil, however, the drilling captain on the 503 did not choose to do so, but chose to continue drilling.

Wang Dehuang was disappointed and found Su Cheng and said: "When you get to the position, you should at least give it a try." ”

Su Cheng shook his head and smiled: "I don't know how to drill, I don't understand without them." When I used to be in the oil production team, I was a small mechanic repairer, and when the oil test was appropriate, the on-site judgment was the most accurate. ”

"Then we have to continue to wait?" Wang Dehuang looked at the foreigners who kept communicating nearby, and said helplessly: "A few of us stay at sea, and there is nothing to do, why don't we send us back to Baku first, and wait until there is good news at sea, and then we will come over." ”

He wants to use PetroChina's personnel in Azerbaijan.

Su Cheng didn't want him to sniff around in Baku, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "I've been waiting for three days, what's the matter if I wait another day or two, it just so happens that we are talking about a business, you can also listen to it...... It's about tubing. ”

Wang Dehuang wanted to send two people back to Baku no matter what, but when he heard the word "YouTube", he hesitated, and followed Su Cheng half-pushed.

In the PetroChina system, he firmly supports supporting self-production, that is, the production of petroleum machinery by itself, rather than ordering from other systems or foreign factories, not only that, but he also suggested increasing investment in petroleum machinery to earn foreign exchange through exports. Among them, tubing is a big bulk.

Wang Dehuang didn't know if Su Cheng had investigated him, but from his personal point of view, insisting on supporting self-production was obviously more important than sending two people to Baku.

When he got to a cool place with his head bored, the foreigners who crossed their hands and talked small words naturally gathered over, more conscious than the free-range chickens in the chicken pen.

Su Cheng pointed at Wang Dehuang and said in English: "China National Petroleum Corporation also produces tubing, 40,000 meters of pipes, and it is estimated that it can be delivered in half a year." Chief Engineer Wang, you quote a price. The French company Fina is ready to take over our outsourcing business, and if the price difference is not too big, they will give priority to our products. ”

"Shall we?"

"Dahua Industrial and the National Petroleum Corporation are still in partnership. Su Cheng laughed and said, "I am still an independent director of the Petroleum Corporation." ”

Wang Dehuang smiled and said: "Our oil pipes are calculated by tons, about 20,000 yuan per ton, one meter is 2.7 tons, 40,000 meters is 108,000 tons, 2.16 billion!"

After calculating the numbers, Wang Dehuang was taken aback.

Su Cheng chuckled and used 30,000 yuan to convert into dollars to quote Fina.

The Frenchman bowed his head and said: "The price is reasonable, it depends on the quality." ”

Su Cheng turned back to Wang Dehuang and smiled: "There are satellite phones and fax machines on board, you ask about the specific situation, if it happens, it will also be an income, isn't it?"

Wang Dehuang nodded a little distractedly.

Just talked about a business of 2 billion?

He thought about it again, Su Cheng has been talking about business with people from foreign companies for the past two days, and sometimes the conversation is quite intense, so how much business are they talking about?

This group of big dogs!
