No matter what era, it is natural that people who can play in the deep-sea oil production business are first-class talents in the industry in the oil field.

As a related business closely linked to the vast ocean, ocean oil extraction has inevitably inherited some sailing traditions, such as disgusting women boarding a working ship, touching champagne when sea equipment is launched, trying not to open drills on the 13th of each month, etc.

In addition to cooperating with Norwegian Subsea 7 Marine Services, the Earth Explorer drilling vessel has had a history of cooperation with world-leading petrochemical giants such as Shell, Mobil, BP, and Total in its ten-year service history. That is, it has experienced the ecstasy of finding large oil fields in a short period of time, and the frustration of hundreds of millions of dollars in getting few gains.

Overseas, the first well was dug in an area where the exploration was never accurate and the oil and gas resources were obtained. This kind of well with a great luck had a special American slang a wild cat well. The domestic exploration industry literally translated as a wild cat well. In fact, if Xin Yada is not considered, it is more in line with the facts.

Although this wild cat well is very rare, it has accumulated many cases in the history of oil exploration that has a history of 100 years. In the last century and early this century, during the development of the Texas oil field in the United States, there were examples of speculators who saw the rare hunting of hares by the white-headed vultures in the United States, and decided to dig wells at the white-headed vultures to feed the food of the white-headed vultures, which resulted in oil being produced and then getting rich.

But this situation in the South China Sea has never been seen since the end of World War II and the outbreak of science.

Before modern exploration and digging the first census well, at least one must conduct multi-directional detection of the areas related to the drilling well, such as ultrasonic, electromagnetic, gravity, earthquake, etc., and finally, the location of the census well will be determined after the data in various aspects is summarized and computer analysis.

The cost of digging a well at sea is over 100 million yuan. I won’t say whether each well can produce oil, but it must be reasonable in theory. Although capitalists who can afford energy are rich, their money is not caused by strong winds.

Qilian Mountains took a note from their pockets and notified the drilling ship to set sail. We dug the wells directly at some point. In the eyes of the captain of the Earth Explorer, Bjorn Ellison, who had not heard of it in at least half a lifetime. If there was no oil, Qilian Mountains would naturally be labeled as ignorant and backward in the Eastern witchcraft. Now the natural gas emerging from the pipeline reminded Ellison that he had just seen and participated in a miracle, which was enough to shock the lucky miracle that had been in the industry for a long time.

The Earth Explorer exploration drilling ship belongs to a type of ship with relatively strong comprehensive performance. Although it is weaker than standard offshore drilling platforms in terms of well drilling operations, it is far stronger than drilling platforms focusing on engineering capabilities in terms of geological exploration and investigation direction.

After the first well was released, the joint scientific expedition team determined the approximate reserves of the Liwan gas field in just one week, with a resource of 100 billion cubic meters of natural gas reserves and a resource of 150 billion cubic meters in the long term. At the same time, it was accompanied by more than 10 million tons of high-quality lightweight low-sulfur crude oil in the Republic. If converted into the calorific value, the total reserves of the Liwan oil and gas field in the Liwan oil and gas field are approximately 100 million to 100 million tons, which is a typical large natural gas gas field.

After the scale of the gas field was determined, the entire exploration team, including the Qilian Mountains, was ecstatic. If calculated based on the popular oil units in the UK and the United States, the total reserves of the Liwan gas field are about 700 million to 1 billion barrels of standard oil. Based on the current international oil price of 27 US dollars per barrel, the Liwan gas field is a large gas field with an economic value of more than 20 billion US dollars.

Others were just emotionally excited, but Qilianshan was going crazy. Qilianshan knew very well how the note that had been regarded as an oracle by the exploration team. It was because he knew clearly that Qilianshan knew better what kind of monster his boss was. He could throw away any dice and earn $20 billion. This luck was definitely the founding Taizu of the country in the past few centuries.

Although someone only gave it to Liwan, Qilian Mountains, judging from the storage of large oil fields around the world, the area near large oil fields is a resource-rich area, and it is easy to find related resources and then form world-scale resource storage areas, similar to the Middle East, Daqing, the Republic, the North Sea, and the United Kingdom, and Texas, the United States.

Therefore, after establishing the reserves of Liwan, the Earth Explorer began to further exploration with the Liwan gas field as the center according to regular operation. Influenced by the Liwan gas field, Qilianshan has been eating and living on the ship recently. It is rare to return to Hong Kong. The negotiations between Yuanjiatong and Huang on the acquisition of port lights were completely thrown to Nvbijian by Qilianshan.

The two girls said one by one, and it took nearly an hour to roughly describe the birth of the largest bet between the three people in history.

"I heard Jia Jia say that, Xiaoyuan is getting 20 billion US dollars now?"

Xiong Weixin's face was full of disbelief. Although the person was staring at Liang Yuan, his spirit was obviously flying in outer space.

After thinking about it, Liang Yuan decided to refresh Xiong Weixin's understanding of miracles, legends and other words at one time.

"Uncle Weixin, the gas field in Liwan is not over yet. Not far from the Liwan area, Earth Explorer has successively drilled five exploration wells in various directions, and two of them have oil and natural gas. Before I came to Qinhuangdao, Qilian Mountains had submitted the latest report. There is likely to be a large-scale oil field with a reserve of no less than 100 million tons near the Liwan gas field."

Although Liang Yuan’s speech was possible, his tone was in a positive tone. Others were not sure for the time being, but Liang Yuan knew that the Liwan Gas Field belonged to a large oil and natural gas mixed oil and gas resource area.

Within this area of ​​more than 100 square kilometers named Liwan, there is also a Liuhua Oilfield with a reserve of more than 200 million tons and two other large gas fields code-named Liuhua. The total reserves of oil and gas resources in the Liwan area, light crude oil exceeds 250 million tons, and natural gas exceeds 500 billion cubic meters.

If the total natural gas resources in the Liwan Sea are converted into standard oil, the total resource volume of Liwan area exceeds 700 million tons of crude oil, which is at least equivalent to 5 billion barrels of standard crude oil. Even in the 1990s, when the oil price is only around 30 US dollars per barrel, the resource value of Liwan Sea is more than 100 billion US dollars. If you enter the new century with high oil prices, this huge asset, Yuanjia, will definitely not be able to hold on without playing with arms.

At the end of this century, the total reserves of Daqing oilfield released by the Republic were only 5 billion tons. After the new century, the Brazilian Lula offshore oilfield, ranked last in the world's five offshore oil fields, had reserves of only 6.5 billion barrels. This time, someone collected one-seventh of the Daqing oilfield in the South China Sea at one time. Before the peak of offshore oil development was in the early 1990s, the reserves of Liwan oilfield directly entered the five major offshore oilfields in the world. Now, someone bragged about the old oil and oilfields in the South China Sea two years ago, finally filled in a lot of old accounts of oil in the South China Sea.

Of course, Liang Yuan chose to unveil the veil of the South China Sea resources at this time, and it was a bit forced to do so. The transfer of the national economic focus of the Republic and the significant reduction in military expenditure were not affected by Liang Yuan. If the Republic repent in 1996, the cucumber and vegetable would be cold.

Now, such a fat piece of meat in the South China Sea was blatantly placed in broad daylight by Liang Yuan. Although the Republic may be hostile to countries around the South China Sea, Yuanjia may also face various enemies at home and abroad, as the crisis comes, opportunities also come at the same time. At least Yuanjia will definitely be countless times more righteous in promoting the construction of the Republic's sea and air force.

Thousands of RMB 100 million are thrown into the margins of the Republic's sea and the air force's actual control area. No one can stand this matter. As a matter of life and death stakeholder of interests, Yuanjia is more enthusiastic in the Republic's military industry and strives to promote the modernization of the Republic's military equipment. No one can say anything else. Just be greedy and will not have the reputation of being ulterior motives. Holding your thighs without being kicked away by your thighs is definitely a technical job. Before you hug your thighs, you must first let your thighs understand that you are on the same rope as him.

"Wow, you may have discovered a large oil field recently? Pighead, why didn't we see that document?"

"Yes, yes, my sister and I have been paying attention to the documents in the South China Sea direction."

The two girls asked curiously.

In the eyes of the two girls, Yuanjia has to spend too many places. Even Liang Yuan has handled Yihe, but he has just breathed a sigh of relief. Therefore, the two girls are very concerned about the discovery of a large gas field worth more than US$20 billion in the South China Sea. They think this is another solid fulcrum for someone to spend money after Yuanjia acquires Yihe. Therefore, the twins have been extremely concerned about the documents in the group regarding the exploration of the South China Sea resources, marine engineering equipment, etc.

"Unless I'm in the final exam, these documents will be handed over to me for processing as soon as possible. I will archive them after reading them. I don't have to take them home at night. Both of you pay attention to the new documents that have been archived and will not pay attention to them, so naturally I didn't see them."

Liang Yuan smiled and explained to the two girls.

"Xiaoyuan means that the valuation of 20 billion US dollars in the South China Sea can no longer be stopped. It is likely to turn into 40 billion US dollars next month or next month?"

Liang Yuan nodded and directly confirmed Xiong Weixin's guess.

The reason why Liang Yuan dares to jump into countless big pits for burning money is that for someone, the funding issue is actually not a problem. Of course, the premise that this is not a problem is that the company's reputation is high enough, and Yuanjia now obviously meets this condition.

Taking Liwan gas field as an example, even if CNOOC, which currently monopolizes the Republic's offshore oil business, regrets its desire to pick fruits, it is not afraid of Yuanjia's status at this time. The administrative power will not be mentioned for the time being, but the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the military currently involved in Yuanjia is enough to dispel all the bad thoughts of CNOOC.

Someone claims to invest at least 400 million yuan a year in the Republic Torch Development Plan. The Chinese Academy of Sciences is the only source of the members of the Torch Plan Project Review Committee, and the only hosting unit is the Republic Experimental University, which was founded in the SAR.

In other words, if you want to get the funds for the Torch Plan, you have to have a lecturer or professorship at the Republic Experimental University. Of course, in the face of the surging unfair doubts, the SAR government, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Shangri-La Foundation were all dragged out by Liang Yuan as a target and were responsible for explaining to scientific researchers from other domestic universities that the Torch Plan was originally a self-owned R&D investment plan of the Republic Experimental University. The National Science and Technology Commission, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the SAR government have upgraded the plan belonging to the school to the national level and opened it to the national faculty and staff.

The experimental university under construction has been said a lot. In fact, the core is to show the brothers across the country how rich we are and how rich we are. Let’s jump to the SAR quickly. If you can make such shameful things as poaching people so righteous, you will also fight for the talents of the SAR government.

Not to mention the Republic Navy, no matter how Xiong Weixin struggled, the Republic Navy would sooner or later see the fully decked high-speed anti-smuggling rescue ship led by someone. In the 1990s, the huge tonnage of 30,000 is enough for the Republic Navy to be excited.

It is impossible to guess whether Xiong Weixin can keep this ship, but if anyone dares to affect the construction of this ship, Liang Yuan estimated that the Navy's excitement would not be lower than that of Guoan led by Xiong Weixin. Besides, his father-in-law still has the sign of the Republic's first amphibious theater commanders who surpassed the military's service to face the future war model.

"Xiaoyuan, the news of the discovery of a large oil field in the South China Sea is really mixed. If Guoan's anti-smuggling ship is built, Yuanjia will find that the external risks of the gas field will be reduced a lot. Fortunately, the Liwan project is not far from land, and within the combat radius of the J-7 fighter jet, the project's risk is not great, but there will be many troubles around the South China Sea since then."
