The Chinese headquarters in the temporary camp was brightly lit.

Qin Shiwei, Nian Zhongxue, Ran Zi'an and other drilling and oil production experts looked at the exploration maps day and night, and kept comparing the various materials sent by the exploration team.

They hadn't slept in two days, but no one thought about it.Because tomorrow, Dahua Industry's No. 2500 well will drill to [-] meters.At that time, a decision has to be made whether to complete the drilling or continue drilling, and the drilling team cannot be delayed.

The Singapore-Malaysia Group chose to drill to 3500 meters, which would delay them for about a week. If the oil reservoir is indeed within 2500 meters, Dahua Industrial will undoubtedly have a great advantage.

However, based on the oil testing of the previous wells, the probability of the oil layer being within 2500 meters does not seem to be great.If Dahua Industry continues to choose 2500 meters, but there is no oil layer within 2500 meters, no matter how hard it is, it will fail.

Ran Zian and Nian Zhongxue studied for two days, but they couldn't come up with a Zichou Yinmao.

Drilling to 3500 meters seems to be the safest thing.However, Xinma Group and Ito Trading Company have advanced technology, and the speed will not be much slower than the [China] drilling team, and it is very likely to test oil in advance...

Qin Shiwei frowned, looked at Su Cheng with his eyes closed, and wondered if he had fallen asleep.

After waiting for a few seconds, he shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "We were too eager to complete the first drilling, blame me, if I had strictly followed the requirements and drilled to 4000 meters, and then used multiple oil layers to test oil , the second well will be able to know what to expect. It seems a bit too late to increase the depth of drilling now."

Nian Zhongxue said: "Based on the geological conditions of the Tyumen Oilfield, it is indeed possible for the oilfield to go as deep as 2 meters. The trouble now is that we are all exploring in an oilfield in Kuvak. The geological conditions are not much different, both from 3 meters. If you start to test the oil, it is easy to be seized by others."

When Nian Zhongxue was speaking, he also looked at Su Cheng.

Based on the current information, it is indeed difficult for them to give a definite answer.

It takes too many resources to understand the oil buried thousands of meters deep in the ground.Two-dimensional and three-dimensional seismic maps, magnetic and gravity testing methods, etc., combined with hundreds of theoretical books, are still only estimates.

Even after another 7 years, people still cannot accurately predict the situation below.

Su Cheng thought silently, but did not speak.

What he considers in his head is not a technical issue, but a commercial issue.

The goal of racing exploration has always been to attract orders from other Russian oil companies.Therefore, winning is of course necessary, and winning beautifully is also an extremely important additional condition.

Xinma Group decided to complete the drill at 3 meters. After Dahua Industrial hesitated, if it also chose 33 meters, it would not be considered beautiful if it won, and it would be even more ugly if it failed.

So, the depth increased to 2 meters?

It takes more time on the one hand, and Sioux City is also not optimistic about this depth.

In his impression, there are very few oil fields in the Tyumen oilfield that are more than 4000 meters deep. All the impressions are due to the notes in college.The depth described in the books back then is very easy to remember: within 1 feet.

1 feet is just over 3 meters, which is very easy to remember.

Therefore, drilling to 3500 meters was a wrong decision in Sioux City's view.But 2500 meters cannot be said to be a safe decision. Whether 3000 meters is necessary or not is difficult to judge.

Thinking about it, Su Cheng looked up at Qin Shiwei and asked, "Dean Qin, what's the final situation of the second well?"

Qin Shiwei participated in the oil testing of the second well from the beginning to the end. With his understanding ability, he should be able to make good suggestions.

Qin Shiwei on the opposite side had a slightly awkward expression.The second well was somewhat like Waterloo to him.In fact, during the entire Kuvak Oilfield racing exploration process, Qin Shiwei’s suggestions were somewhat omissions, but this is unavoidable in the oilfield development process.Exploring oil fields involves guessing. The more experience you have, the higher the correct rate of guessing, but it does not mean that you can guess 100%.

A few seconds later, Qin Shiwei adjusted his mood and said: "After the cementing operation of the second well was completed, I immediately presided over the inspection, and all technical indicators met the requirements. After electrical inspection, the quality was qualified. At that time, I'm in a very good mood..."

After a short pause, he was half recalling and half reporting: "On the 5th, we started the first perforation and replaced the mud in the wellbore with clean water. Then, when the clean water was used to kill the well, we Firstly, three thin oil layers from 2100 meters to 2400 meters were shot, with a thickness of about 3 meters. After perforating, there was no indication at the wellhead, and there was even a decline. Inside, oil smell and oil hua were found, but no crude oil was found after all. Since the 18th, we have further perforated, but still have not found..."

Listening to his introduction, Su Cheng nodded slowly.The oil well is not dug to the position, and the oil will spew out.Of course, the early onshore oil, as well as the current offshore oil, did have such a phenomenon, which usually represented large oil fields and high oil pressure, but this is not necessarily the case.The Kuwak oil field is obviously a small oil field, and it may even be an oil sands field. The lack of downhole pressure is what they expected.If not, the former Soviet Union would not have let it go in the initial survey.

The main work of Qin Shiwei in Well No. 2 is to adopt various methods of inducing blowout to dredge the oil layer, so that the crude oil has the power to be ejected.

If there is an industrial flow of more than several tons per day, it means that the drilling is in the right place and the field is valuable.

If industrial flow does not occur, either the well is not being drilled in the right place, or the field is worthless.

Of course, there is a third possibility, which is that the method of inducing spraying is wrong.

However, Qin Shiwei is already one of the few drilling and oil production experts. Except for the Drilling and Oil Production Research Institutes of Daqing Oilfield and Shengli Oilfield, the research institutes of other management bureaus are only weak or weak. But the experience is not as good as those of these administrations.Naturally, many foreign monks outside are of high level, but most of them know a lot of equipment and obtain a lot of auxiliary materials. Since Dahua Industrial can't provide so many equipment, it is useless to find foreign monks.

For example, people like Ran Zi'an haven't played a big role since the exploration, and his future development will still be more reflected in research.

Su Cheng was silent for a moment, and said honestly: "We can't follow the ass of the Xinma Group. Even if we win, it won't guarantee us a lot of contracts and orders. Deepening the oil well to 3 meters is fine, but other than that , what else can you do?"

Nian Zhongxue frowned imperceptibly, and said: "Drilling to 30 meters is only 2500 meters more than 3 meters. It is hard to say whether we can encounter oil layers with visible oil within these 3 meters."

He has worked in the research department of state-owned enterprises all year round, so he doesn't know anything about business. He tends to follow the strategy out of purely competitive plans.

Qin Shiwei somewhat understood what Su Cheng meant, and avoided talking about the depth of the well, and said softly: "Actually, there is still a way to try the second oil well."

"Ok?"

"Instead of spraying method, use crude oil instead of spraying. However, the oil layer will be polluted in this way. At that time, I considered that Well No. 2 was still an exploration well, and there was no oil-gas reaction, so I didn't do this." There are a series of spraying methods. The sequence is first to replace the heavy mud with light mud, if not sprayed, then replace the light mud with clean water, and then replace the clean water with crude oil.

Once crude oil is used, the original downhole data will definitely be inaccurate.When Qin Shiwei operated Well No. 2, he hesitated. At this time, the situation was urgent, and he didn't care about wasting an exploratory well.

Su Cheng has a good understanding of Daerhuazhi's technology, nodded and said: "It's not bad to use crude oil instead of spraying. In this case, the No. 3 well will be drilled to 3 meters. If oil still cannot be produced, we will use crude oil instead of spraying."

"After spraying, if No. 3 well does not produce oil, it will be a waste." Nian Zhongxue reminded.

Su Cheng nodded and said: "If there is no more oil, the exploration expenses of our entire oil field will be wasted. We will use crude oil instead."

Qin Shiwei confirmed Su Cheng's thoughts and prepared at night. Early the next morning, at dawn, he boarded a helicopter and went straight there.

At a depth of 3 meters, it will take a day or two if you pay close attention, and the oil testing operation will start in about a day.

Li Zhengfu and others also paid attention to the movement of Dahua Industrial. Hearing the sound of the helicopter, Li Zhengfu came out of the warm room, greeted Su Cheng who was seeing him off from a distance, and asked with a smile: "Should Chairman Su decide?" Have you reached the drilling depth? Are you going to test the oil today?"

The camping house behind him is very different from before. The wooden villa made of thick logs occupies a corner of the temporary camp. It has two floors, five to six hundred square meters, and all the employees of the Xinma Group. included.Ito Trading Co. also built similar wooden villas, only slightly smaller. Only Dahua Industrial and Alexei remained, and they still used the previous temporary board houses.

Su Cheng was focused on getting the order, and he didn't have a construction team under him. Seeing Li Zhengfu just coming out of the warm room, he curled his lips and said, "Don't be nervous, Mr. Li. We only drilled to 70 meters. You still have 3 meters left." Opportunity."

"It should be that Director Su still has a 3-meter chance."

During the short confrontation between the two, more people walked out of the room.

Li Zhengfu smiled and greeted him a few times, then left with his head bowed.His nervousness was not inferior to that of Sioux City.

Because they are familiar with the local geological conditions, the speed of the two drilling teams is extremely fast.

In just a little over a week, the third exploration well of Dahua Industrial reached a depth of 3 meters, and the average daily footage was faster than that of Xinma Group.

When they were cementing the well, the Norwegian drilling team invited by the Singapore-Malaysia Group was still struggling at 2 meters.

This time, the initiative is once again in the hands of Dahua Industrial.

As long as the No. 3 well can see the industrial flow, it will be a complete victory.

May (day.

Since the morning, Su Cheng has put the satellite phone in front of him, waiting for the call.
