Chapter five hundred and seventy-ninth first exploration well

"Liu Jianguo of the State Council?" Su Cheng had a short circuit for a while, and then he remembered that this was the super enthusiastic "old farmer" he met when he graduated from Peking University?

Peking University was an offer black hole before 1989. Any job that China had, would not be available to Peking University students. It was Sucheng, who had the opportunity to join the General Office of the State Council at that time, and Liu Jianguo was also a leader in the same period and joined the State Council as he wished. Six or seven years have passed, and Liu Jianguo is still in the State Council, and he thought he had good qualifications and positions.

Although he knew that Liu Jianguo had a purpose here, he felt that he had met an old friend in a foreign land. With his classmate's identity, Su Cheng said in a good mood: "Please come over and make some tea."

Yang Ming went there knowing the opportunity.

Not long after, a "haha" laughter came from outside. Liu Jianguo pushed the door open and said enthusiastically: "Dahua Industrial is doing a great job. I didn't expect that our Chinese talent has such a way..."

"It's still like a storyteller, sit down." Su Cheng naturally felt close when he saw Liu Jianguo. Although he had just arrived at Peking University in the graduation season, his days there were a major turning point in his life.

Liu Jianguo's appearance not only reminded him of his college life, but also made him recall his situation and thoughts back then.

Sucheng during the graduation season is qualified and opportunity to enter the State Council. If he does that, it will naturally be another situation after 7 years.

Perhaps, being a colleague with Liu Jianguo can make life stable and comfortable, and using the information we know in later generations may also be able to do something. However, can the State Council itself play its greatest role?

Sucheng was very skeptical about this.

Liu Jianguo also looked at Su Cheng and smiled: "When I met in Beijing last time, I thought your Dahua Industrial would focus on domestic refining business. In a blink of an eye, I got the oil field in Azerbaijan... I heard that you have a lot of capital, can you mine crude oil?"

"The chance of oil production is very high, the question is whether there can be large oil fields." Sucheng cooperated very well to turn the topic.

Liu Jianguo immediately followed and asked, "How confident are you to get a large oil field?"

"50. The estimated output is more than 60 million barrels." Su Cheng made up two numbers, which was exactly what Liu Jianguo wanted to hear. As for the actual output of Aqijiu oil field, 60 million barrels is just a fraction.

However, when Liu Jianguo heard this number, he was already quite satisfied. He quickly asked: "What about time? How long will it take to reach a production of 60 million barrels? Will it be stable?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "It can be achieved in one or two years, which is guaranteed to be faster than the China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline."

Liu Jianguo blushed a little and said, "You guessed it?"

"How could you not guess?" Su Cheng smiled, but restored the atmosphere.

Liu Jianguo touched his head embarrassedly and said, "I was actually ordered to understand some situations. To be honest, the central government needs to know whether the oil resources in Central Asia can support the annual transportation volume of 20 million tons of the China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline."

20 million tons are nearly 150 million barrels of crude oil, which is not much from a macro perspective, but in terms of specific work, it is surprisingly large.

Currently, super tankers generally only carry 200,000 to 300,000 tons of crude oil, while large tankers in ordinary points only carry 100,000 tons of crude oil. To transport 20 million tons of crude oil, large-scale tankers need to travel 100 to 200 times.

Whether it is for oil fields, terminals, transportation departments or sales departments, this oil pipeline equivalent to Shengli Oilfield production is not easy to manipulate. In terms of cost, although most of the technology and funds are borne by Dahua Industrial, the cost of land, personnel, and a considerable number of auxiliary equipment is also quite expensive. For pipelines that are thousands of miles long, state-owned enterprises represented by PetroChina must prepare at least tens of billions of yuan. As time goes by, it is not surprising that it will cost hundreds of billions of yuan.

Because of Lin Yonggui, the China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline has begun engineering preparations, but this does not mean that the central government will ignore this.

Since the beginning, Dahua Industrial’s bid for Azerbaijan has been under the name of supporting the China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline. So how much crude oil can Dahua Industrial finally obtain in Azerbaijan, which is important matters related to the China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline.

Confirm that what Liu Jianguo wants to know is still the issue of oil source, Su Cheng said easily: "We plan to produce 10 million tons of crude oil in Azerbaijan, and the crude oil promised by Kazakhstan to provide will ensure that the transportation volume of the China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline is absolutely no problem. Of course, the oil fields obtained by Dahua Industrial have not yet been developed. At that time, if unexpected situations occur, we will use a long-term contract to ensure sufficient forgiveness."

In the oil market, contracts that really dominate the market have always been long-term contracts. The heart-pounding futures markets, or the spot markets with unexpected prices, are conducting billions of transactions every day, but in fact, their trading volume only accounts for less than 10 of the total oil transaction volume.

Long-term oil contracts are the mainstay of maintaining the energy market. Although it is often shattered, its stability is still commendable.

Liu Jianguo had done his homework and knew what a long-term oil contract was, so he nodded and said, "Does Dahua guarantee that he can sign a reasonable long-term contract agreement?"

"From the situation in Azerbaijan in a few years, this place may become a buyer's market." Sucheng pointed outside. Below the building where they are located is a common broken road in Baku, which is a microcosm of local transportation.

"That's great." Liu Jianguo clasped his hands together and said happily: "I'll report the task like this. Next, it depends on yours."

"No problem. What are your plans for vacation next?" Su Cheng blinked and smiled: "The oil workers' resort in Baku is well built."

"Of course it's good to go on vacation, but unfortunately the funds are limited and I can't go." Liu Jianguo shook his head and said, "I have only been abroad for so long for so long, and I have only been arranged by the itinerary in total. This time I am the boss myself, so I can't get a bunch of bills back."

"Take the bill over and I'll ask the public relations department to reimburse you."

"That won't work." Liu Jianguo refused and said, "It's not easy to get out, you can't break the rules."

"I really don't need it?" Su Cheng was a little surprised. Official reimbursement in the 1990s was as common as backdoors in the 1980s, but Liu Jianguo's performance exceeded the average level.

Liu Jianguo smiled and said, "It's really not necessary, I can't stay for too long. But... when will you start drilling and mining?"

"Oil mining? It will take a while. What we need to do first is earthquake measurement, then dig a preliminary exploration well, and do rock formation evaluation operations..." Su Cheng roughly explained.

Liu Jianguo frowned and sighed: "You have learned a lot over the years. If it weren't for our grade, I would have thought I would have met a student majoring in oil."

Su Cheng complained: I am a professional oil expert.

"When will the earthquake measurement start and how to do it?" Liu Jianguo wanted to collect more information.

Regarding technical issues, Sucheng had nothing to hide. He thought for a while and said, "We applied for a two-month measurement operation, and a ship was about to pass the day after tomorrow. Earthquake measurement is quite interesting. Why don't we go and see it together?"

"That's great, how do seismic measurements measure?"

"Use a flange machine gun."

"What?"

"The machine gun fires bubbles and then uses a seismometer on the ground to analyze the geological conditions. If it is a nearshore area, you can also use a heavy truck to tamp the ground."

Liu Jianguo was surprised: "No wonder he had to apply."

"So, of course, the best geological assessment operation must first use drilling. We will drill a preliminary exploration well in the near future. If we get a good well, the exploration task will be successfully completed."

"So, you can't go back in a short time?"

"I'm afraid that's right, is there something wrong?" Su Cheng was a little surprised.

Liu Jianguo waved his hand repeatedly and said, "It's not a big deal. It's just that the country wants to participate in an international exhibition, led by senior leaders, and is now looking for projects. Dahua Industrial has so many high-tech technologies, and I think it's very potential. It's a good opportunity."

Su Cheng thought about it, but said, "Let's focus on measurement first. The first exploration well is called the Wildcat Well in China, which means blind drilling. Let's see how the Chinese Wildcats are."
