Section 747 Mexico is abandoned
With the exploitation of offshore oil fields in the Gulf of Campeche, President Cárdenas has become less and less convinced to negotiate with the United States on the division of Mexican waters. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The U.S. government is increasingly anxious to draw a line, because with the success of offshore oil drilling, the importance of Americans in the Gulf of Mexico has risen sharply, which is related to national oil security.
President Roosevelt was very distressed, let's be tough on Mexico, even if the good-neighborly and friendly policy he implemented after he took office was a complete failure, I am afraid that it will be difficult to improve the image of the United States in the Americas in the future, and if we don't take a hard line on Mexico, we will not be tough on Mexico, watching the Mexicans hire Chinese drilling teams to continuously drill one oil well after another, going deeper and deeper into the sea, without drawing lines, this is the high seas, and the United States cannot interfere or stop it.
Thinking that if the Chinese let the oil platform penetrate deep into the deep sea, sooner or later the United States must intervene, just like blocking the gas fields in the Matamoros sea area and expelling the Chinese mining team, sooner or later, it is better to do it before they succeed, President Roosevelt then ordered that if the Mexican government does not negotiate with the United States on the delimitation of the Gulf of Mexico, the United States will expel the entire drilling team operating in the Gulf of Mexico, whether it is in Mexican territorial waters or not, because Mexico is engaged in oil exploration in its own territorial waters. There is also the possibility of pumping out oil resources that used to belong to the seabed of U.S. waters.
The reason of the United States is far-fetched, but it is hegemonic, and the Mexicans broke out all at once, and the large-scale demonstration of Weiyou can be done, but the birds are useless, because they do not have a fleet that can compete with the American imperialists, and in anger, President Cárdenas openly declared that it is necessary for Mexico to build its own navy, protect its national security and maritime rights and interests, and prevent a rogue country from threatening the great motherland of Mexico with its navy at every turn.
Cárdenas's call was supported by all Mexicans.
But who to look for?
Of course it's the Ryukyus.
The Ryukyus announced that they had accepted a super large order for ten aircraft carriers and ten battleships from Mexico, and said that they would do their best to deliver them as soon as possible, but their construction capacity was limited, and I am afraid that the Mexicans would need to wait for more than two years.
The Mexicans' statement made Roosevelt die, good neighborliness and friendship, it sounds beautiful, but it is too difficult to do, it is difficult to reconcile, so many countries are crowded in the Americas, you can't take into account the interests of each country, there are always things that are not satisfied, in order to make Mexico satisfied, do you have to return Texas, California and other places to them?
Roosevelt knew that the United States could never satisfy Mexico, and he knew the philosophy of domination, and if he could not satisfy the people, he had to make them fearful, and the same applies to international diplomacy.
The U.S. Atlantic Fleet then sailed into the Gulf of Mexico and began to evict the well crews, demanding that they shut down the wells and return to shore immediately.
Deterred by the cannon ships, Chinese technicians and Mexican workers had no choice but to temporarily shut down the oil wells and return to land in lifeboats.
The Mexicans naturally blew up the sky again, and naturally once again the birds did not use it, the situation is stronger than the people, you can only endure it.
Cárdenas brought the lawsuit to the League of Nations, asking the League of Nations to come forward to sanction the aggressive acts of the United States, but where can the League of Nations take care of it, the Big Three of the League of Nations, China is having a headache because of the matter between Japan and North Korea, Britain and France are at war with Germany, and no one can take care of anyone.
The Mexicans are helpers, and the Yangzi Oil Company has publicly issued a statement condemning the hegemonic behavior of the United States, which has seriously affected the interests of the Yangzi Oil Company, and has filed a lawsuit with the US court against the US government and the US Navy, demanding that they compensate the Yangzi Oil Company for its losses.
But the U.S. state courts simply didn't hear it.
It was during the war that oil prices skyrocketed all over the world, and the Nazi wolf pack tactics had taken effect, although the number of merchant ships that were sunk was not as many as expected, but the panic it brought caused a great reduction in the number of merchant ships exported by the United States to Europe, and the price naturally skyrocketed.
As early as a month after the outbreak of the war, when the British were not aware of this, a German submarine sank the British passenger liner Athena in the Greek waters of the Mediterranean.
Due to the presence of German submarines on the Mediterranean route, the British could not use this route at full capacity, resulting in the inability to transport oil produced in the Middle East, and Britain resumed importing American oil again, and American oil production instantly increased from 3.7 million barrels per day to 4.7 million barrels per day, and the surplus 1 million barrels were supplied to the British Empire's huge fleet throughout the world and domestic consumption.
As a result, large quantities of oil are stranded in the Middle East, and the oil terminals of Saudi Arabia, Persia and Iraq are full of tanks, but they never wait for the arrival of oil tankers.
Of course, Chinese oil tankers are rain or shine, arriving on schedule, loading enough oil to carry 300 million barrels per year, and the thunder cannot be beaten.
The British wanted China to buy more, but they were unwilling to cut prices, which meant less income, and less income meant that they had more difficulty coping with the war.
At the end of April, a large merchant ship departing from India and sailing around the Cape of Good Hope to Europe for safety suddenly was ambushed by a German submarine in the waters near South Africa, and the image of a steamer full of textiles sinking in billowing smoke instantly spread all over the world, and the British wanted to prove the cruelty of the Germans.
However, the Yangzi Oil Company believed that the British Empire could no longer maintain the security of the Indian Ocean, and announced that it would suspend oil imports from the Middle East for the sake of safety.
Affected by this news, oil prices in East Asia soared from $2 a barrel to $5 in an instant.
Yangzi Oil Company had even more reason to file a lawsuit with the Americans, but the US court refused to accept it on the grounds that it involved political issues, and Yangzi Oil Company had no choice but to announce that it would abandon its claim and instead negotiate with the Rockefeller consortium and decide to expand its oil imports to the United States during the war, and Rockefeller took the opportunity to raise the price of oil to $2 on the grounds of the war in Europe.
The price of oil in East Asia has increased again, rising to $6 a barrel, and in just a few days, the price of oil has tripled, making East Asian countries complain.
Oil production from the United States has increased, in addition to reducing imports from the Middle East, but also reducing imports from Mexico, the reduction is just about 1 million barrels per day from Mexico's offshore oil fields, which makes Mexicans lose more than $500,000 a day, not counting the loss of oil wells, Yangzi Oil Company gives them oil wells, it is not free, and the oil exploration business is a lucrative business.
Each of these dozen oil wells paid $1 million for each of them, but they didn't expect that just after the cost was recovered, the Americans sealed their oil wells, and there was no such thing as bullying.
The Americans have not only sealed Mexico's oil wells, but what is even more indignant is that they have increased their oil supply to China, which is the most infuriating, and Mexico can easily understand something from this, and Mexican newspapers are already scolding the United States for hooliganism, saying that the Americans are stealing money from the pockets of the Mexican people.
What made Mexicans even more angry was that soon Yangzi Petroleum announced that it would cooperate with the Rockefeller consortium to extract oil in the Gulf of Mexico, and the Rockefeller consortium would rent Yangzi Oil's mobile operating platform for $100,000 a day.
Li Guang expressed regret and told the Mexicans that Yangzi Oil Company had suffered the same heavy losses this time, and that it needed to recover its losses as soon as possible, and that if Mexico could not guarantee the safety of its oil, Yangzi Oil Company would be forced to cooperate with the Americans, although the Americans' oil was very expensive.
The Americans bullied them, the Chinese abandoned them, and the Mexicans had a feeling of being abandoned, that kind of inner indignation, Yang Chao could understand too well.
Although the Mexicans were sad and angry, they could still understand it, Li Guang's team leased the oil ******** to Rockefeller, and then set foot on the ocean-going airship and left the Mexican soil.
Their mood is still low, but when they know their future mission, they will not be so depressed, that sea mobile platform is indeed like a weapon in the hands of a warrior to them, let them hand it over, it is really heartbreaking, but if they know that they will accept a larger, more advanced sea mobile platform, the mood will not be so bad.
In fact, when they returned to China and Yang Chao told them about the situation, they didn't even want to take a vacation, they wanted to see the new offshore platform immediately, thinking that the new platform was 100,000 tons.
As an offshore platform, tonnage is not the most important thing, this mobile platform has been able to achieve this tonnage because of the installation of a large number of new equipment, a complete gas turbine power generation system, oil or gas can be used as fuel to generate electricity, the design of comfortable living spaces, the installation of high-power communication facilities, experimental equipment, as well as lifeboats, and airship platforms.
Obviously, this mobile platform will be more comfortable to live and work more efficiently.
On top of that, he installed the latest drilling equipment, which can be drilled to a depth of about 5,000 meters, and has also made a new design for the legs and lifting mechanism, which can not only lift up and down along the legs, but also make the legs longer and stronger, which means that the working depth of this platform has been doubled from less than 100 meters to less than 200 meters.
What makes Li Guang's team even more excited is that the exploration team of Yangzi Petroleum Company has also discovered geographical features of suspected oil and gas in the waters of the East China Sea and the South China Sea. Please enter the text (to be continued.) )
