Although the office building of the 5th brigade is in the factory area, the oil production station under his jurisdiction is far away from the mining area, especially the location of the 3rd team, where several oil production teams under his jurisdiction are located, basically to the boundary of Jincheng, so the shuttle bus left from the oil area and drove for 40 minutes before arriving at the No. 62 oil production station.

And on the road from the factory to the oil production station, it was an eye-opener for Liu Baotian.

From the original national highway, to the country road, to the last dirt road, in short, a section of more than 50 kilometers of road, this car drove for more than 1 hour, the shuttle bus was bumpy all the way, not to mention, and as soon as the window was opened, the yellow sand blew people's faces.

But in this kind of traffic situation, in Cheng Gang's opinion, it is not bad! According to him, the second factory has replaced the shuttle bus with a bus in the last one or two years, and the shuttle bus in the early years was an open-top liberation.

According to Cheng Gang's words, whether it is spring, autumn, winter or summer, in those years, men and women had to be crowded into a great liberation, which felt like a big truck pulling pigs in later generations, pulling these green-faced oil workers down the oil production station.

According to Cheng Gang, in those years, when he didn't do anything, he just took a shuttle bus, and he felt like he was going to fall apart.

Liu Baotian and Cheng Gang chatted for more than an hour, and the car stopped at the No. 62 oil production station, and then Liu Baotian followed Cheng Gang out of the car in a daze.

The 5th Brigade has a total of 5 oil production teams, and there are 16 oil production stations of different sizes under the team.

Speaking of which, there may still be people who don't know much about the establishment of the grassroots level of the oilfield.

Then I will give you a brief example.

The oil production brigade is equivalent to a township, the oil production team is equivalent to a village, and the oil production station has no level. In other words, at present, Liu Baotian is a deputy village head according to this establishment.

As soon as Liu Baotian got off the bus, Cheng Gang stopped him, and then pointed to the sign at the entrance of the station, and then Cheng Gang also gave Liu Baotian a general introduction to three oil production stations.

There are 3 oil production stations (No. 62 station, No. 67 station, No. 68 station) under the 3rd team, and the 62nd station is the earliest station, and the geographical location is also in the middle of the three oil production stations, so the team leader, secretary, electrician, data clerk, and accountant are all working here, so the 62nd station is also equivalent to the hub of the 3rd team.

As for Station 67, because there are few oil wells and few employees, there are only 6 people in the entire oil production station, which is the easiest place for the whole team.

As for Station 68, Cheng Gang didn't say so much at first, but said with a smile: "Station 68, this is our Brother Ji's baby Gada, and the benchmark station is him." ”

Liu Baotian really came to No. 68 Station to work in his previous life, but the construction of No. 68 Station had already been completed at that time, so Liu Baotian didn't know what No. 68 Station was like now.

Then Cheng Gang explained Chen Guangzhong to the stationmaster of Station 62, and then he continued to chat with Liu Baotian, and the focus was on Station 68.

Because the second oil production plant named the oil production station with numbers from the beginning of the construction of the first oil production station, the higher the number of the oil production station, the earlier the age of the station.

According to Cheng Gang, Station 62 and Station 67 were built in the mid-80s, while Station 68 was just completed the year before last.

In addition to this, the size of the three oil production stations is also different.

Although Station 62 was the earliest, with the most oil wells and the largest number of employees, the most tired oil production station is actually Station 68.

Because the No. 68 station has just been built, although the number of oil wells is only more than ten oil wells, but every year the drilling team will drill several oil wells at the No. 68 station, and at this moment, the No. 68 station is still drilling 4 platform wells.

As Cheng Gang spoke, he pulled Liu Baotian and pointed in the direction of the northeast corner, but it was strange that a drilling platform with a height of 2 or 3 ten meters stood not far away, and a faint roar could be heard.

"Don't be afraid, these four oil wells are not drilled at once, a drilling team has finished all four wells, and it is estimated that it will be winter." Cheng Gang then said.

Subsequently, Cheng Gang saw that Liu Baotian had no fear on his face, and he thought that Liu Baotian was not afraid of tigers when he was just starting out, so he immediately told him about the problem of Arai and the hardships he was about to face.

Newly delivered wells are very difficult to manage compared to old wells.

Needless to say, the old well is generally an oil well, with five huff and puff cycles (from gas injection to oil production to the end of production), you will generally know the problem of the well.

The oil wells without production are scrapped, the oil wells with problems are either repaired or scrapped, and after five cycles, generally it is 2 years, the oil wells that can produce oil normally, some problems have also been found to be almost, and as the production cycle continues, the production is reduced, and many problems that are not easy to control have been solved.

As for the new wells, this matter is complicated, and the average old oil extractor would rather manage 5 old wells than 1 new well.

First of all, although the oil field must conduct a detailed demonstration before drilling each oil well, and from various indicators, it is basically determined that there is crude oil at the bottom of the well.

But in fact, each oil layer, each block, has its own characteristics! And often the results are very different from what was expected.

For example, according to the early exploration of logging and geology, it is completely possible to determine that there is an oil reservoir in this direction, and even the specific depth of the oil reservoir.

But it is very likely that after this well is drilled, no oil can be pumped out at all, and some oil wells have been pumped for several years without even a single oil splash.

Or some oil wells have pumped out crude oil in the early stage, and the production is quite large, but it didn't take long for the oil to disappear inexplicably, and the reason could not be found.

Of course, in addition to these two cases, the most common phenomenon is that the oil well is normal at first, and after 1 or 2 throughputs, the oil well starts to get sick.

Don't think that when an oil well is drilled, he will be fine! In fact, oil wells, like people, are prone to illness.

Take people as an example, some people have good physical fitness, do not get sick all year round, and can live a good life. Some people are born as sick seedlings, not only have they been sick and crooked, but they burp after a few years.

Compared with people, there are not many oil wells that live well and are not sticky, but the kind of "scumbag girl" who takes money and experience, and finally ends up empty.

There are actually a lot of terms such as sand wells at the bottom of the well, casing deformation wells, high corrosion wells, and gas channeling wells in the bottom stage, and I said it, and readers may not be able to understand it, so I will pass it over.

Let's tell you this, these newly built oil production stations, these newly drilled oil wells, you can encounter any situation.

If the oil well is on the ground, everyone can see with the naked eye, and everyone can know how to solve the problem.

However, oil wells are generally hundreds of meters, or 1 or 2 kilometers deep, so no one knows what is going on in the oil layer, so it is very difficult to manage.

In addition, after each new well is delivered by the drilling team to the production team, the subsequent maintenance work is also particularly locked.

Installation, equipment maintenance, tightening screws, buttering pumping units, connecting and debugging pipelines, in short, a new well is full of the expectations and sweat of countless oil workers.

And after these new wells were officially put into production, one after another things came again.

Because oil wells, like people, have their own personalities and tempers.

A well-managed oil well is like the so-called "angel baby" that is in normal production and operation, and employees do not need to think much about it.

But if the oil wells are not well managed, then it will be dead.

The viscosity of the oil well is high, and the crude oil has entered the station and cannot be exported!

Oil wells come out intermittently, and it is easy to bet on the pipeline (the meaning of intermittent is that there is production for a while, and there is no production for a while)!

The oil well is steaming, which is easy to cause a blowout!

If the oil well does not produce oil, various measures must be taken.

The connectivity of the oil reservoir in the oil well is not good, and it is easy to fail to pump out the crude oil.

The wells are too well connected and prone to steam channeling.

In short, after an oil well was put into production, he had more problems than a newborn child.

It is also particularly difficult to dig out a single well, and then talk about the management of the entire oil production station level.

Although each oil production station is equipped with an export tank, a backup export tank, and even some oil production stations are equipped with overhead tanks (when the export tanks are full, they are fed into the overhead tanks and then pulled away by tanker trucks).

However, because of the high production and unstable production of the new well, and the general quality of the external transfer pumps in this era is not very good, it often happens that the crude oil enters the station, but the liquid volume is too high to be exported.

If this is in the future, the leaders of the oilfield will directly shut down the well and reduce production! But in this era when only production is important, no matter what you think, whether the employees take a break or not, whether they sleep or not, you are just exhausted, and you have to get the oil out.

And the construction of the new station is not like the later generations, everything is done by foreign workers!

In the early 90s, oilfield workers were not so expensive, so everything on the station was done by oil extractors.

What to insulate the pipeline, what to drain the desulfurization tower, what to replace the big flange of the pipeline, what to replace the design of the export pump, what to connect the pipeline to the blowout well!

In short, the oil extractors of that era could do anything, dared to do anything, and of course there were many accidents.

Let's put it this way, the oil extraction workers in 8 and 9 years are very hard, and all of them are very comprehensive in technology, basically any person who stays at the grassroots level of the oil production team for two years can be regarded as a qualified fitter.

All in all, the first few years of the establishment of each oil production station are an unbearable past for the employees of the oil production station.

While chatting, Cheng Gang suddenly said: "Baotian, after chatting for so long, do you know anything about Station 68?" ”

"Almost." Liu Baotian said politely.

"Okay, then you will be the cadre of Station 68 in the future!" After Cheng Gang said this, his eyes suddenly narrowed together with a smile.
