Section 447 Oil Crisis

Indeed, the world's oil-importing countries are clamoring every day to develop new energy sources to replace oil, such as combustible ice, which has twice the existing reserves of natural gas and oil, and they are doing the same.

But, at least for now, and even for decades to come, oil is the world's most important energy resource.

Many wars were fought over oil, such as Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, the Gulf War, the Iraq War, civil wars in some African countries, and so on.

Oil has changed the fate of many countries, even the fate of a big country, and that big country is the former Soviet Union. In 1986, the global oil price "reverse crisis" launched by the United States became one of the important factors in the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Oil dominates the world's economy.

For example, three oil crises.

The first oil crisis, the outbreak of the Fourth Middle East War in 1973, in order to fight Israel and the United States, a number of European countries, the Arab members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries announced the right to collect oil prices, and raised the price of crude oil from $3.011 to $10.651 per barrel, and oil prices more than tripled.

This led to the worst global economic crisis since World War II, and the three-year oil crisis had a severe impact on the economies of developed countries.

In this crisis, industrial production in the United States fell by 14%, and in Japan by more than 20%, all industrialized

The country's economic growth has slowed significantly.

The second oil crisis was triggered by the drastic changes in the political situation in Iran, the world's second largest oil exporter, and the resignation of Iran's pro-American moderate Shah Pahlavi, which was a major cause of the overall recession in the West at the end of the 70s of the last century.

During the third oil crisis, Iraq was subjected to international economic sanctions after Iraq's occupation of Kuwait, which disrupted Iraq's crude oil supply. As a result, the economies of the United States and the United Kingdom accelerated into recession, and global GDP growth fell below 2% in 1991.

Several oil crises have had a severe impact on the global economy.

Chen Rui has a world-class oil field, in this era of oil-caused world economic crisis, no country in the world can ignore its voice, the Kingdom of Tortuga plays a pivotal role in the international community.

Chen Rui Bill. Bob said. "Thank you for your hard work, and thank you for your efforts to explore this oil field."

In May last year, not long after the founding of the island of Tortuga, Bill. Bob and his oil exploration team were hired by the Royalty Asset Management Commission of Tortuga to explore more than 180 square kilometers of land on Tortuga Island, tens of thousands of square kilometers of territorial waters, and oil and gas resources in the exclusive economic zone.

Worked at sea continuously for more than a year.

Everyone is really working very hard and working very hard.

Finally, the field was successfully explored.

In the meantime. In addition to paying a service fee of tens of millions of dollars to Halliburton Petroleum Services in accordance with the provisions of the entrusted exploration service contract, Chen Rui also sent a resident representative, and they are doing all the rest.

"It's our job to find oil for our employers." Bill. "I hope that Halliburton Petroleum Services will continue to serve you on this field." ”

An oil field, the fuel burned in the engines of automobiles, airplanes, and various ships, and the lubricating oil used in machinery and equipment. as well as solvents and chemical raw materials, waxes and their products. products such as bitumen and coke.

A series of service chains are required.

Exploration of oil, construction of offshore zhang well platforms, construction of oil pipelines, oil storage tanks and other infrastructure, transportation of oil tankers, and offshore zhang well platforms. Maintenance of oil pipelines, oil storage tanks and, if necessary, oil refineries, etc.

Halliburton is one of the world's largest providers of products and services to the oil and energy industry.

These services are all available.

Oil exploration services can bring Halliburton millions of dollars in profits, and these make small profits.

Behind the construction of the offshore zhang well platform. The construction of infrastructure such as oil pipelines and oil storage tanks, oil tankers, the maintenance of offshore well platforms, oil pipelines, oil storage tanks and other facilities, and oil refining plants are the big profits that any oil service company wants to get.

The sale of a single set of offshore Zhang well platforms will make tens of millions of dollars in profits.

Laying an oil pipeline of more than 40 nautical miles made hundreds of millions of dollars in profits.

Hundreds of millions of dollars in profits from an oil refinery

The whole set of services can bring Halliburton more than a billion dollars, or even billions of dollars, in profits.

"For the same price, I would give preference to Halliburton." Chen Rui nodded and said.

Bill. Burton nodded.

In addition to Halliburton Energy Services, the world's oil service giants include Snonberger, Saipem, Transocean, Fluor, Bidjet Oilfield Services, British Petroleum Service provider Petrofac, and rising star, CNOOC and so on.

If the news of the discovery of a world-class oil field here spreads to the world, it is first of all that these oil service giants run to Tortuga like sharks smell blood.

The competition in the field of oil service is very fierce, more fierce than any industry, because there are only these oil fields in the world, and every newly explored oil field is a big fat meat for oil services, and they will catch it like wolves and compete for big fat meat.

The fierce competition in the field of oil services has cultivated the character of wolves in the oil service companies that can survive, and the character of no wolf has long been eliminated in the field of oil services.

In the Middle East, in order to get a service contract for the construction of an oil pipeline, a service contract for the construction of an oil refining plant, a wharf, an oil tanker, a Zhang well platform, all kinds of open and hidden bribes, bribery, sending sports cars, sending beautiful women, inviting officials of the Ministry of Oil to the United States, paying for oil services, etc., various transactions are constantly staged in various hotels in the Middle East.

In order to obtain a service contract in the Middle East, Halliburton established a good relationship with the oil tycoons in the Middle East and moved the company's headquarters from the United States to Dubai.

If, if not, the communication signal here is blocked, and, in the past, a strict confidentiality contract has been signed, Bill. Bob has long been

A phone call hit the desk of the manager of Halliburton's energy services department, and Halliburton immediately took action to win all the service contracts for the field before the other oil service giants got the news.

From scratch, building a complete set of oil extraction, production, transportation and maintenance chains for a world-class oil field is enough to make Halliburton the most dazzling oil service giant this year. (To be continued......)
