super energy power

Gu Haijian slowly and evenly smeared the removed oil droplets on a quartz column with quartz particles, and used it for thin-layer chromatography analysis.

There are many ways to determine petroleum components, and the components of crude oil vary widely around the world. No matter gas chromatography, liquid chromatography, mass spectrometry or nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, etc. have their application conditions, and in geological research, the most used Or TLC hydrogenation flame ion detection technology.

Gu Haijian worked extremely seriously, writing down the quantitative readings of saturated hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons, colloids, asphaltenes and the most important sulfur content on paper...

The work was meticulous and tedious, the exact opposite of the chaos of the celebratory crowd outside the window.

The first thing that jumps out is the sulfur content.

"0.17%, it really is sweet crude oil." Gu Haijian's face lines curled up.

Low-sulfur sweet crude oil is a very important resource. In the early days of the oil age, crude oil was mainly used to produce kerosene for lighting. Kerosene with high sulfur content would give off a distinct odor in the room, so it could not be used at all until a certain Sour crude came into play only when a chemist adopted better refining techniques.

However, no matter what era it is, sweet crude oil is always more widely used than sour crude oil. High-grade gasoline, diesel and high-quality aviation fuel can only be produced with sweet crude oil for a long period of time.Factories using sour crude oil as raw materials not only have high production costs, but also lag behind sweet crude oil factories in terms of product quality.

Until the 21st century, there are still many refineries around the world that can only use sweet crude oil, and they would rather pay a higher price for sweet crude oil than buy sour crude oil that is easier to get.

The sulfur content of 0.17% is much lower than the sweet crude oil standard of 0.5%. It is a standard high-quality sweet crude oil. Correspondingly, the crude oil produced in Shengli Oilfield and other places is often super sour with a sulfur content of more than 2.5%. crude.

Setan Oilfield also produces rare sweet crude oil, but its output and reserves cannot be compared with super oilfields.

Gu Haijian quickly pulled out the readings of the last oil well for comparison.

The sulfur content of 0.62% shows that the last oil well was also a good oil well, but it is far inferior to the current one.

"From this point of view, we have found a second oil field." Gu Haijian took a deep breath.Looking at the black fountain in front of the brightly lit place, I thought to myself: If there is a daily output of 3 barrels... no, if there is a daily output of 1 barrels, the No. [-] oil field is likely to be another elephant !

Getting two elephants in one bid will make many people mad with jealousy.

Gu Haijian looked up and did not go out to report immediately, but continued to compare with other components.What he needs are foolproof answers.I would rather go slower.

The auxiliary ship started slowly and drove a little farther.to avoid the black oil fountain.The sailors showered with fire hydrants and washed the entire ship's black people white.Gentlemen who like cleanliness went down to the deck to find clothes to change, and those who had no clothes simply took off their coats and continued to drink on board to get rid of the cold.

Whether it is an employee of Dahua Industrial or a representative of a non-Dahua company, the appearance of No. [-] well is very welcome. With such a reason, it seems natural to drink more boldly.

When all the wine stored on the ship was exhausted, Gu Haijian who stayed in the back cabin just finished all the analysis and comparison work.And officially issued a test report.

He washed his face with cold water, and after waking up, he came to Su Cheng with this report in his arms.

Including representatives of several foreign companies, everyone knew Gu Haijian's identity, and they all guessed what he was going to do.

Even the drunk guy stood firm now with the support of his colleagues, looking at the thin report with expectant eyes.

"Su Dong. I have analyzed Well No. 1 and Well No. 2, and the conclusions are as follows." Gu Haijian handed over the report to Su Cheng.

"Let's talk about it." Su Cheng used English, and at the same time opened the report by himself.

The few pages are full of data and tables, which suits Sioux City's taste.

Gu Haijian lifted his spirits and said in English, "The analysis report of Well No. 1 was completed three days ago. Compared with the analysis of Well No. 2, I can draw the conclusion responsibly that the two oil wells belong to different oil fields. Moreover, the production of No. [-] well will be relatively optimistic.”

"In other words, we have found two oil fields now, right?" Su Cheng confirmed.

Gu Haijian nodded affirmatively and said, "It's definitely two oil fields."

Su Cheng nodded slightly, the Aqijiu Oilfield itself is owned by Aseri.The three large oil fields of Chirag and Juneshli are composed of three large oil fields, and their difficulty and depth increase accordingly.When determining the positions of the five drilling platforms, Sioux City took into account the orientation of the Aseri and Qirag oil fields. Looking at it now, the No. 5 oil well should have been successfully drilled on the edge of the Qirag oil field. .

As for Juneshri, it is a relatively remote deep-water oil field. In terms of construction costs, to fully develop the Aseri and Qirag oil fields, it will cost about US$50 billion to US$100 billion. Li Oilfield, it is estimated that more figures will be needed.

Most of the cost of barrels of oil is reflected here. When the exploration is over and the appearance of the Aqijiu Oilfield is fully revealed to the world, the development cost of tons can completely overwhelm a medium-sized oil company, and it is difficult to persist even relying on bank loans. go down.

Dahua Industry also has the scale it has today, coupled with the advantages of Chinese companies, it has just dared to get involved in this level of offshore oil development.

Several company representatives around listened to their conversation and stayed for a while. Next, Gilles from Fina Company snatched the analysis report and asked while reading it: "Is the reserve estimated? No. 1 and No. 2 How many reserves are there in No. [-] oil field?"

Gu Haijian looked at Sioux City, and then replied: "The reserves of the No. 1 oil field are preliminarily determined to be more than 10 billion barrels, and the No. 2 oil field is still uncertain."

The reserves of the No. 10 oil field are more than 10 billion barrels, but it will not take a few days to get a close and accurate answer. [-] billion barrels is the standard for an elephant, and it is enough to attract full attention.

The eyes of the foreigners surrounding Su Cheng lit up like cats.

Why do they stay on such an uncomfortable bumpy ship, isn't it just to see the production of crude oil?

It doesn't matter if the production of No. 2 well can't be determined, but it does let them see the potential of this place.

Su Cheng said softly: "Everyone, let's talk about something specific."

"Of course, we should talk about specific things." The Spaniard smiled as if he stuffed a football into his mouth.

Gu Haijian backed away lightly, his task had been completed, but the fatigue of his body made him so sleepy that he wanted to fall to the ground and sleep immediately.

Before his consciousness dimmed, Gu Haijian's gaze unnaturally aimed at the offshore drilling platform.

"Go and see those guys." Gu Haijian recalled several exchanges with the drilling team.Although it is not always so pleasant, crude oil is indeed drilled below 3000 meters. For this alone, we must admire the persistence and confidence of the drilling captain.

Not every drilling captain has such confidence and courage.The so-called oil flower, many times, is like pouring a spoonful of oil into a small river.Blink or turn around and you'll miss it.It is not surprising to see oil flowers, but it is rare to firmly believe that no oil flowers have been seen.

That means that Li Hu strictly followed the rules from beginning to end.It sounds easy to monitor the drilling conditions, but as far as Gu Haijian, who is familiar with offshore drilling, knows, there are only a handful of drilling captains who can do this.

Science comes from the observation and recording of objective things. Gu Haijian felt that it was necessary to meet this confident and persistent drilling captain.

He beckoned to the boatswain and asked for the boat to go to the rig, and at the same time a woman with a hand-held video camera appeared beside him.

"I'm Jin Huiyuan from Dahua's public relations department. I'm going to interview Captain Li Hu." The woman wore overalls and her long hair was tucked into a hard hat. The image was much more neutral, but it was still completely different from the rough men commonly seen at sea.

Gu Haijian's mood suddenly became strange.

……

In the cabin, representatives of various companies began to argue about the funds raised and the timing of the launch.

As little capital as possible and as fast operation speed as possible can naturally reduce risks as much as possible, but it is also likely to reduce returns.

Although everyone wants to make money.But in futures trading, earning 1000 million yuan may require investing 1 million yuan or more.Although leverage can be used, leverage also means magnifying risks.

In the game of risk and return, even insider trading cannot be said to be 100% stable.Global Petroleum of the United Kingdom, Fina of France, and Sig Petroleum of the United States, which are relatively small companies in general, hope to control the amount of funds used within the scale of 1 million US dollars.

In the case of leverage, it is not impossible to earn 1 to 3000 million with [-] million US dollars, after all, there will be double income of one in and one out.

However, from the perspective of Sioux City, it is really not interesting to encounter a century oil field if the investment is only a few hundred million US dollars.Moreover, the amount of this money is far from affecting the price of oil. At most, it is to earn some tolls with the ups and downs of the oil storm.

"The investment amount of 5 million US dollars is the least, and it must be able to accept 50 times leverage." Sioux Cheng quickly expressed his request.

Kangle, the president of British Universal Company, immediately shook his head: "It's just two oil fields. It's still too much to invest 5 million US dollars now. The most important thing is that the two oil fields have not yet been put into production..."

"This is just the beginning of a series of oil fields. The premise of our operation is that the Aqijiu oil field will be a great oil field. I don't mean a reserve of 10 billion or 100 million barrels, but a production of at least 10 billion barrels. You guys At least 30 billion barrels have been seen now. I believe that within a few days, you will see 50 million barrels or even [-] billion barrels. If you wait a little longer, the two oil fields discovered now have at least [-] billion barrels. What, can it hit the market more than excess crude oil?"

"Anyway, we still haven't seen 50 billion barrels in reserves."

"If the reserves of 50 billion barrels are announced, wouldn't we earn less money?"

Kang Le was somewhat convinced, and asked: "Su Dong is really confident that he will see 100 billion barrels of reserves?"

"I said this when I didn't have a single oil well. You wouldn't believe it. Now there are 10 billion barrels. You still can't believe it. It seems that gaining trust is really a major project." Su Cheng laughed.

"Production is the real focus." The representative of Spain's Repsol has always been very active, smiling with his front teeth: "The current production is already 10 barrels per day, and a few more oil wells will be opened to break through the daily output of 30 barrels." It’s not a problem, but if it breaks through [-] barrels per day, it will be great.”

As soon as these words were said, several people felt strange in their hearts.

Oil spot and futures price changes are often determined by a 1% change in production.Because oil storage is not easy, and the scale is very large.A daily output of 30 barrels means 4 tons per day. If a large tank for oil storage is built, it will occupy a large area.On the other hand, it is not easy to increase oil production or reduce demand. It is impossible for refineries and chemical plants to stop production for a day, and it is impossible for cars to stop being used. Oil fields do not mean that more production can produce more. The oil market is called hard elasticity, but in fact it is inelastic. Oil production is calculated in units of days. When demand increases, the only way to increase the price is to increase the price. If the demand decreases due to price, the price will drop slightly, and then rise.In the same way, if the production of oil increases, but the demand does not increase, the price will naturally fall.

Libya is an obvious example.Its annual production is only 0 million barrels per day, accounting for less than 2% of the world's production, but when Libya's production is reduced by half, that is, 100 million barrels per day, the world's oil markets are affected.When the outlook is uncertain, no reserves can be used.

"From my point of view, start raising funds now. When the funds are in place, you may see Dahua's third oil well." The representative of Repsol has rich body movements, and his elbow almost knocked the cup off .

The money for insider trading cannot be exchanged directly, but must be collected through many channels.Fortunately, oil companies are no strangers to having a lot of foreign accounts.

"Then invest on the basis of 5 million yuan." The representative of Kangle Company finally made up his mind.

Sioux Cheng smiled, but said: "If the output really reaches 30 barrels, it is best to continue to increase the basic investment."

"Do you want to increase?" For a large and medium-sized oil company, the principal of US$5 million is indeed a lot.

"A 30-barrel-per-day oil field, I don't know if I can meet it in this life. If I do, I will never be willing to be a small fish in the market." Sioux Cheng's tone could not be said to be relaxed, but it made several people smile.

Indeed, if we have 30 barrels as the basis, we should increase investment.

"It's up to Dahua Industrial." Gilles raised his glass and said with a smile, "I hope we can see more oil wells and oil fields being born during the fundraising period!"

When the French said this, they did not guess the follow-up development at all.

...(To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation..)

ps: The double monthly pass was originally 7 days...

It seems that I didn't catch up with the timing of the last day. I wanted to write 3000 words and send it up, but I failed, and it became 4000 words, wasting the last few hours.

Sorry for not doing double updates every day.

These seven days are still very difficult for the physically broken and exhausted bird and dolphin.This book has been written for more than a year. In the early stage, I only took a day off when I was sick. In the later stage, I stayed up all night and stayed up late. It was hard to feel like a weekend or a vacation.

In the new year, I hope to write a good book and keep my body healthy.

So tomorrow I want to take a day off.In the future, if possible, take one day off a week and keep updating the rest of the time.This should be able to better complete the book.

Hereby explain.
