What changed the foreign company's thinking was a piece of news from the TASS news agency: Chinese Sioux Cheng was appointed as the vice president of the national oil company.冰@火! in Chinese

Large oil companies, like Dahua Industrial, have established their own information bureaus.Although it is not necessarily necessary to train spies to do illegal things, collecting public information or hiring some information personnel who are familiar with the local area are all normal procedures.

National news agencies such as TASS, Reuters, and the Associated Press basically provide information in full disclosure.Companies or individuals who need it can easily get round-the-clock information scrolling.However, it is not that simple to keep receiving news and analyzing it. From a small point of view, at least one office staff and funds are needed.

Smaller companies tend to save this money.Only large companies, or high-profit companies like Dahua Industrial, who value information very much, will pay for the collection and analysis of information themselves.

Therefore, even though it is just an ordinary TASS news, companies that can easily get news are often not simple.

Most of the foreign companies following that big Michelin are still scavengers. They get information from their peers, or just watch other people's actions, and at the same time increase the funds of the Dahua Poverty Alleviation Fund .

Su Cheng picked up several important companies and signed contracts on the spot to reassure people.However, he signed either a downstream company or a small and medium-sized equipment manufacturing company, all of which are suppliers that Dahua Industry needs.The most itchy oil cooperation contract is that none of them have been signed.

A group of people surrounded him and chatted sideways. After speaking, there was a Frenchman who asked directly in Chinese with a Beijing accent: "Chairman Sucheng, would Dahua Industry cooperate in oil production?"

Su Cheng sat in the middle of the corridor.Leaning his back against the pillar, he smiled like a student on an outing, and said, "I haven't seen the oil field, and there is no way to talk about cooperative oil production."

"Azerbaijan will definitely open up the oil industry. When that time comes, Dahua Industrial will definitely enter it as soon as possible. We also hope to enter Azerbaijan's oil industry as quickly as possible. Cooperation will allow us to gain greater benefits." France, who speaks Chinese Man, he bit his tongue after speaking half of his Chinese, and simply said in English: "Our Saiwanant company has eight oil refineries around the world. Dozens of chartered ships and tens of thousands of gas stations, we To be able to send petroleum products to Europe with the fastest speed..."

What he said seems to be very powerful, and in terms of the region, it is indeed very powerful.But tens of thousands of gas stations.Dozens of chartered ships and eight oil refineries can only be said to be average in the world.Regardless of the capacity of the refinery, the main value of the gas station is still on the license plate.As for its distribution capacity, the bigger upstream oil companies, the less they care.

With the scale of Dahua Industry today, Saiwanant is just an ordinary medium-sized company, not outstanding.

nature.In the eyes of Sioux City, they lack competitiveness.

In fact, the company that came to see Su Cheng now is already two beats behind.

Also a French company.The biggest Total doesn’t even bother to go through Sioux City. Regardless of whether the president of Azerbaijan is Elchibey or Aliyev, they will go to public relations through their own channels.

The next level of fina company.As early as when Aliyev had some signs, he approached Sioux City.You can imagine.They will also find Husseinov and Mamedov.Although this kind of spreading strategy is expensive, it is better than safety, and it will never lose the contract because of government relations.

When they arrived at this so-called Savant Company, they had actually entered a state of "following fate".Find a Frenchman who understands Chinese, and try to impress Sioux City with words... In the end, it’s just resignation. They estimate that they do this in oil fields everywhere, and they can take advantage of a little advantage, but they don’t pay a lot in one oil field. Confidence and persistence.

For a small oil field, Su Cheng might have a few words with him, but now he has no interest at all, and said to the Frenchman indifferently: "Oil refining and sales channels are not what we need to consider now. If your company really If you are interested, you can contact us after we get the oil field and produce oil.”

The French quickly said: "We also have mining capabilities."

"Dahua Industrial also has them." Su Cheng sneered in his heart: Want to enjoy the contract of the century without bloodshed?Even the top [-] companies in the world dare not think about such a thing, and bp even knows to send some prostitutes to Azerbaijan for public relations...

The French obviously didn't guess that Sioux City had such a big heart, and they talked about the European market with a smile.

Sioux City simply turned his face away impatiently. In just a few years, the energy market will become a pure seller's market. Europe has to consider where to import oil, instead of thinking about excluding any company from us.

Iran, the axis of evil in later generations, has not been truly blocked by Europe and the United States. If Dahua Industrial wants to enter the European market to sell oil, it cannot be easier.

Sioux City simply disdains a medium-sized unknown regional company.

Several similar small companies stood aside helplessly.

Like the Chinese, foreigners also like to take advantage.Now that there are so few opportunities to take advantage, they are naturally unhappy.

Lin Yonggui has been an official in China for a long time. He pays attention to harmony and is more willing to unite with foreigners. Seeing this scene, Lin Yonggui came up to smooth things over with a smile, and said with a smile: "It's been a long time, why don't you go to eat? If you have anything to say, eat it." Let's talk about dinner."

Xiaopang looked up at the sky, it was only four or five o'clock, a little early for dinner.However, he never objected to eating early, so he happily agreed: "I'll inform the hotel, let's go there, or let them deliver it?"

"It's better in the past, so as not to mess up and ruin the newly-made nursery." Lin Yonggui patted Xiaopang and said with a smile: "I heard that the house was designed by you? Well done."

"I'm mainly a supervisor." Xiaopang resigned with pride. Although the various high technologies used in this house were realized with the help of Dahua Laboratory, it is also a kind of talent to be able to use them. .

Generally speaking, Xiaopang's talent is probably concentrated in spending money.In China in the early 90s, it was not easy to cultivate this ability.

Su Cheng was also tired of the continuous entertainment, so he got up with a smile and said, "Let's arrange the dinner at the Dahua Hotel. It can be regarded as a dinner for our Shuguang Council, um. Before the official operation of the council, I will pay the money." It's out."

Charitable foundations abroad often spend more than 50% of their donations on fundraising and management.How domestic foundations do it is one thing, but how it behaves is another.

Fatty didn't care who paid, he stood up and hurriedly greeted everyone to go to the hotel.

After a while, several Dahua executives also appeared in the yard, not only to greet everyone, but also to discuss more cooperation details.

Not everyone is qualified to meddle in oil development, but below oil development.There is still a lot of related work. Dahua can't eat such a big plate, and it doesn't look down on the meager profits, but other companies don't necessarily.

At dinner time, we continued to talk about oil and cooperation.Most of them are cooperation with Dahua Industrial, and some companies have also negotiated cooperation with each other, which makes the role of the Shuguang Council play a little bit.

The next day was also the tea party of the Shuguang Council.

It was not until the third day that experts from the Shengli Oilfield came to the capital.

They came here in sleeper berths, which is almost the most high-end way of travel at this time, even so.The two experts from the Drilling and Production Research Institute were still very tired.

Yang Ming arranged them in the guest house of Dahua Laboratory. Due to historical reasons, Dahua Industrial has many researchers from Shengli Oilfield, and the two had a very pleasant time.

but.When Lin Yonggui told them that the trip was to evaluate Dahua Industrial's tertiary oil recovery technology, the expressions of the two researchers were extremely exciting.

"Dean Qin and Director Yao used to be the masters of our Drilling and Oil Production Research Institute. They have done research for so many years. Dahua Laboratory must have a lot of knowledge." Experts can only explain their knowledge in this way ability.

"How much is there?" Although Lin Yonggui has been focusing on production for many years, he is not satisfied with the level of the research institute.It is difficult for him to have a perceptual understanding. According to the thinking mode of Chinese people at this time, it must be the national team that masters the top technology, or it should be the national team.Shengli Oilfield, Daqing and Changqing are basically the troika under the Petroleum Corporation. The level of the three is about the same, perhaps Daqing is slightly stronger, but in terms of oil production technology, Shengli Oilfield has always been developing because of its complex reservoir conditions. fastest.

This time, Lin Yonggui hoped that the two experts would prove the strength of Shengli Oilfield to Sioux City.There are not too many interest entanglements, which can be regarded as a spiritual need.

Anyway, he is also an official at the deputy ministerial level and needs to prove himself.

Unfortunately, the two experts couldn't cooperate with him.The older researcher struggled for a moment, and said, "I heard that Dahua Industry is planning to develop the old oil fields in Baku, which means that their tertiary oil recovery level, when it reaches the practical stage, ours is not enough."

Now, Lin Yonggui understood, and asked in surprise, "Our tertiary oil recovery technology can't be used yet? What about other oil fields?"

"Our tertiary oil recovery technology is the best." The expert said in a low voice, "Our tertiary oil recovery institute cooperated with Dahua Industrial's tertiary oil recovery institute before. Some of the researchers who quit later worked in our research institute." So. EOR in several other fields is just beginning.”

"But still not practical?"

"It's not cost-effective. We have calculated that with the current technology, the cost of producing a ton of heavy oil will cost more than 1000 yuan just for compounding polymers, not including equipment and labor costs." The older researcher explained this way.

The technology of tertiary oil recovery is basically to force something into the oil reservoir in exchange for crude oil.The initial tertiary oil recovery technology mostly used steam, but its cost is closely related to energy cost, so there were later technologies such as polymer flooding and carbon dioxide flooding.

But no matter which technology is used, the quantity required is quite large, and the cost will also rise with the difficulty of tertiary oil recovery.

The younger researcher is also 40 years old. He continued: "Actually, the crude oil produced by our tertiary oil recovery technology is still profitable. Because the cost of oil extraction is mainly in RMB, the crude oil obtained can be settled in US dollars. Still a bargain."

Hearing this, Lin Yonggui finally regained his spirits and asked, "Then why not use it?"

"For industrial production, the cost of one-time investment is quite a lot. Moreover, it is better to keep the crude oil and wait until the technology matures." The older researcher was not so eager, and dripped a little cold water.

Lin Yonggui pondered, and asked: "So, what Dahua Industrial is doing in Baku is to make money at a loss?"

"It's hard to say. Maybe... Dahua Industrial's technology will be better."

"How low can the cost be reduced?"

"It's hard to say. Maybe... reduce the %?"

Lin Yonggui frowned immediately, this time it was not because of his own face, but because he was worried about Su Cheng instead.

The cost of oil extraction cannot be calculated by pure production cost.

The cost of oil extraction in the Middle East is the lowest, with an average of less than 2 US dollars, and in many places it is less than 1 US dollar. It can be said that when you dig a hoe, the oil will spray out by itself.But if it is said that the cost of oil in the Middle East is 2 dollars, it is definitely wrong.

On a comprehensive basis, the average cost of a barrel of crude oil for oil companies in the Middle East must have exceeded US$8, and it is not surprising that it will exceed US$10 in [-].If it is a foreign company with a higher tax rate, or a company that adopts a sharing agreement, it is normal for the cost to reach US dollars.

The cost gap between NOCs and private oil companies has grown over time.This point does not need to be reborn through time travel, anyone in the industry can see it clearly.

In other words, as a private company, going to Azerbaijan to exploit oil fields, the non-exploitation costs are not low.

Sioux City started with the old Baku oilfield, even if it could temporarily save some expenses, the high production cost is not a good thing.

Foreign countries are no better than domestic ones. Just thinking about so many polymers, transporting them from China to Azerbaijan is a lot of money.

Finally, if the value of the extracted oil is about the same as the cost of extraction, it would be a shame.

Not only is it embarrassing, it may also cause criticism.

This time, the presidential election in Azerbaijan has attracted the attention of many domestic high-level officials, and the focus of attention is Dahua Industrial.

In 1993, China was already a net importer of crude oil, and China has always had a strong sense of crisis.Many people are optimistic about Sioux City, which can obtain crude oil for China.

Lin Yonggui is well aware of the preciousness of this "optimism", and it would be a pity if it was lost because of the old oil fields in Baku.

This kind of thinking cannot be made public.Lin Yonggui's eyes narrowed, and he said: "You are not allowed to mention the matter of the third oil recovery, and you are not allowed to mention the matter of Dahua again. In the past two days, you have a good time in the capital. When you go back, say that you are here for me Those who are doing consultation are not allowed to say anything else.”

The older expert said in a difficult way: "We all study tertiary oil recovery, but this time, many people know about it."

"Write down the names of the people you know, and I'll let someone notify you one by one." Lin Yonggui, who has experienced the movement years, knows how to deal with such things.Not only was he going to block the news from his own side, but he was also going to help Su Cheng block the news from other areas.
