[Ai โ Shang โ Xiao โณ said ยง net .], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
The Lucca oilfield is known to be discovered in the world's five largest offshore oil fields, with estimated reserves of 10 billion --- 14 billion barrels, and is still being explored, with a maximum of more than 20 billion barrels, which is more than ten times that of the Akas oilfield that Ding Yi is now investing in.
Such a huge oil field, even if it produces 1 million barrels a day, is enough to be exploited for more than ten years.
According to international practice and the practice of Xiba, generally such a huge oil field will be carried out in two ways at the same time: its own investment and cooperation with others.
That is, the oil field is divided into several pieces, and the West Pakistan National Oil Company makes its own piece, and then asks the major oil companies around the world to bid for each piece.
In 2008, the West Pakistan National Oil Company discovered the Tubi oil field, a megalometic oil field with reserves of 5 billion to 8 billion barrels, which was also one of the largest oil fields discovered in the world in 30 years, increasing the company's market value in Sรฃo Paulo and New York by 87%, making it the third largest listed company in the Americas.
Afterwards, the Tupi Oilfield was divided and invested by oil companies from Japan, country E, country M, country Z and other countries, and each contracted a piece.
Among them, country Z has invested tens of billions of dollars in its oil, accounting for a large piece.
Therefore, the Luka oil field discovered this time is several times larger than the last one, and with the financial resources and capabilities of the West Pakistan National Oil Company, of course, it is impossible to eat it all, and it will not spend so much energy to exploit it all.
At the same time, in order to reduce the risk, (the proven reserves are not 100% accurate), the West Pakistan National Oil Company intends to split the Lucca oil field into 15 to 20 parts.
The world's top 20 oil companies can invest.
This investment is demanding, first of all, the world's top 30 oil companies, and then the company's assets must exceed 50 billion, operating the oil industry for more than 10 years, having experience in large-scale oil exploitation, and so on.
According to the requirements, Ding Yi's Dongning Ding's Petroleum Group is not qualified.
However, the matter was man-made, and Nemar was bent on pitting Ding Yi's gold, so she immediately reported it to the company's top management.
There were only four people in the entire West Pakistan National Oil Company ranking above him, and these people were called into an office by Nemar, and the decision was made in less than ten minutes.
It is then reported to the West Pakistan Petroleum Authority, (similar to the direct department of the Imperial Oil Ministry).
Half an hour later, the Petroleum Authority agreed to Nemar's proposal to separate the Lucca field, with about 1 billion barrels of storage, to the Ding Group.
There are generally two ways to auction oilfields, the first is that several buyers bid for the same piece, and the highest bidder will be paid to the West Pakistani state in several installments, and then pay taxes according to the income.
The second is the price of a single block, the price is generally relatively low, give the buyer 10, 20 years or longer the right to operate and exploit, and then pay a part of the money to Xiba for each barrel of crude oil mined, for example, a ton of crude oil is now 50 US dollars, and Xiba can be divided into 10-25 US dollars (how to divide it, of course, it is determined by negotiations between the two parties. ๏ผ
However, Ding Yi's request was very powerful, and it also made Nemar and Xiba Fang excited.
I won't talk nonsense with you, I'll give you 300 tons of gold, and I won't pay a penny in the future, I won't have any taxes, and I will have the right to mine for 50 years.
At that time, the State Petroleum and Petroleum Administration of West Pakistan immediately settled the accounts.
Based on the current proven volume of 1 billion barrels, based on the current $50 per barrel of crude oil, the price is 50 billion US dollars, and the investment before and after is about 100-15 billion US dollars, and finally Ding Yi can earn 350-40 billion US dollars.
According to the above two ways, if the first one is used, Xiba will let Ding Yi pay about 5 billion for the first time, and then pay 5 billion in a few years, and then there will be taxes every year in the future, Ding Yi will not only invest more than 10 billion, but also pay more than 10 billion, and finally earn more than 20 billion, and the money earned by both parties is about the same.
According to the second type, the two sides also earned more than 20 billion each.
On the books, Ding Yi seems to have made more money, but Xiba didn't suffer.
First of all, Ding Yi paid off 300 tons of gold at once, and according to the current international gold price of 1310 per ounce, 300 tons of gold are worth 12.7 billion US dollars.
$12.7 billion seems to be a little less than the previous $20 billion, but note that Ding Yi is paid in a lump sum, and any of the previous methods need to be paid for decades, considering factors such as inflation and interest, it is definitely best to take 12.7 billion at one time.
In particular, Ding Yi paid the world's hardest hard currency gold.
And the biggest benefit, the current number of 1 billion barrels, how many barrels, etc., are estimates.
Modern technology is not yet a 100% accurate estimate of the exact yield.
Xiba said that 1 billion barrels can be mined in the end, 1.5 billion or 2 billion barrels can be mined, or only 500 million barrels, or even 100 million barrels.
This kind of risk is the same as gambling jade, the probability is very large, the above two ways to pay, are paid according to the age, in order to reduce the risk of both parties, at any time according to the output to adjust the money handed in.
Now Ding Yi is willing to pay 300 tons of gold at once, which is equivalent to taking all the risks alone.
And in the future, oil may continue to decline, and gold may continue to rise.
"Deal. It only took ten minutes for Nemar to clear the profits and advantages, and the final decision was made immediately.
Probably for fear that Ding Yi would regret it, after the calculation, he dragged Ding Yi to sign a new contract on the spot, and gave this in advance in private without going through a formal auction occasion at all.
Ding Yi was not happy at that time, what should I do if you are operating in private, and the Xiba government will not recognize my contract at that time? No, you have to come openly.
Okay, Nemar met all Ding Yi's requirements in short, immediately, officials from the Petroleum Administration Bureau and the Ministry of Mining and Energy of Xiba, a higher-level department, were present, and Ding Yi also called lawyer Liu Li to the scene, and the whole process also filmed and collected evidence, proving that Ding Yi and the Xiba government signed an agreement, of course, there was no mention of gold at the scene, only that Ding Yi won the east and west sides of the Lucca oil field for 13 billion US dollars, near Cobakabana Beach, and marked Lucca No. 2 oil field.
With another 300 tonnes of gold from the slums shipped to the National Bank of West Pakistan, both the West Pakistan government and the Nemar company went crazy.
It is true that the East is the land of gold, and there are such people who go abroad to trade with a lot of gold.
He didn't know how Ding Yi brought so much gold into Xiba, but Hao had no doubt, as long as the gold reached their bank in Xiba.
After having lunch with Ding Yi and Liu Li, Nemar pulled Ding Yi to communicate cordially on the side.
Well, how much gold do you still have hidden in the slums?
If he could, in ancient times, Nemar would have wanted to send an army into the slums.
"There's not much gold, and I have a new idea. Ding Yi smiled: "Even if I brought all the gold, I don't want to bring it back." If you don't do that, I'll give you another 30 tons of gold, and the Arcas oil field will all belong to one person, and we'll make a new contract. โ
"That's right. Nemar only thought about it for two seconds, and smiled: "Of course there is no problem." โ
For him, it doesn't matter how many shares he owns in Akas, it won't be long before Ding Yi finds out that his Akas oil field can't be extracted, and then he will cry and beg him to buy it all at a low price.
Nemar had already thought about it, and after Ding Yi officially started construction, he would find all kinds of excuses, please use the gang, help, and deal with Ding Yi, when Ding Yi is not familiar with his life, and the government will not come forward to help him, but will only do everything possible to auction this oil field.
At that time, it is not up to him to decide how much the price will be.
Of course, the Luka oil field was negotiated with Ding Yi by the government, and it is located near the city, so it is not easy to do this kind of thing, but the Akas oil field was negotiated by Nemar and Ding Yi alone, and it is close to the slums in the suburbs, and it is still on the territory of the black gang, so it is completely possible to do this.
So after another cordial and in-depth exchange between the two, Ding Yi privately gave Nemar another 30 tons of gold, and the two sides re-signed the contract, and the Arcas oil field was all owned by Ding Yi alone.
Then, Ding Yi said, okay, I still have more than 200 tons of gold, do you want it, I should sell it to you, I will open two oil fields at the same time, the initial investment is huge, what is the use of gold without cash.
Of course, Nemar was ecstatic: "That is, if you invest in two oil fields at the same time, gold is useless, and it must be exchanged for cash." โ
However, these two hundred and seventy tons of gold, at 260 yuan per gram, cost more than 70 billion Chinese dollars, equivalent to more than 10.6 billion US dollars.
Ding Yi was only willing to accept cash, and asked for US dollars or reais.
Although the Nemar family has money, they can come up with so much cash in a short period of time.
There was no way, borrowed, Nemar returned to the family, discussed with the family, took out all the cash in the bank, borrowed another 5 billion US dollars, and then borrowed billions from friends and business partners, and finally scraped together 10 billion US dollars in cash to Ding Yi.
Ding Yi also exempted him from 600 million yuan, which made Nemar ecstatic, and suddenly felt that Ding Yi was not bad, thinking that he would be engaged in him in the future, and Ding Yi would sell the oil field, and he was still a little embarrassed in his heart.
In the afternoon of the same day, the Xiba government television station and relevant newspapers all broadcast the news on a rolling basis, mentioning that the Ding's oil group from the Chinese empire had successively won the Xiba Akas and Lucca No. 2 oil fields.
In an instant, the Ding's Petroleum Group of the Chinese Empire became famous in one fell swoop, and no one knew that this oil company had sprung up, and it actually invested hundreds of billions of dollars in one go to win two oil fields in Xiba, both in terms of financial resources and capabilities, which shocked the world's oil companies.
