Chapter 385: New reservoir

The reserves of this newly discovered oil reservoir are not lower than that of the current oil reservoir. Yang Jing roughly estimated that the reserves of this newly discovered oil reservoir are even higher.

   In other words, Yang Jing accidentally discovered another medium-sized oil field with reserves of more than 60 million tons.

There is a reason why Yang Jing complained about the French survey technology, because Yang Jing discovered that the French did drill two survey wells in this area. As a result, the two survey wells were drilled while rubbing the oil reservoir. . If the French were more than 20 meters inward when they were surveying and logging, they would be able to discover this oil reservoir.

In other words, if the French were a little better at that time, and the person who confirmed the survey on the blueprint shook his hands a little, the Oham Oilfield would have gone from a medium-sized oil field with 58 million tons of reserves to a reserve. Large oil fields of over 100 million tons.

   It's a pity that the French are obviously not so lucky.

   A medium-sized oil field that has been hidden under their noses for more than 30 years just passed them by.

   This newly discovered oil reservoir, Yang Jing, has a minimum reserve of 60 million tons, even if it is a rough estimate. Because it is exploited in the desert, the secondary oil recovery technology often used in other oil fields is difficult to realize here. After all, the foundation of secondary oil recovery technology is water injection and gas refilling. It's good to talk about refueling, but this method of water injection is a bit difficult in the desert area.

But even if secondary oil recovery is not used, a medium-sized oil field with reserves of more than 60 million tons can have a minimum recoverable volume of 20 million tons. The crude oil in the Oham Oilfield is high-quality light, low-sulfur crude oil, and one ton is equivalent to about 72 million tons. Around the barrel. The recoverable volume of more than 20 million tons is 1.5 billion barrels.

   If calculated on the basis of a net profit of ten US dollars per barrel, this newly discovered oil reservoir alone can bring a net profit of 1.5 billion US dollars to Rongbao Mining.

If Yang Jing absorbs natural gas and turns about half of the heavy oil in the reservoir into recoverable light low-sulfur crude oil, then these two reservoirs together can provide Rongbao Mining with a minimum of 500 million barrels of oil. Exploiting reserves means that this oil field, which only cost 47 million U.S. dollars to buy, can bring at least 5 billion U.S. dollars in net profit to Rongbao Mining in the next ten years.

   As the major shareholder of Rongbao Mining, Yang Jing certainly doesn't mind such a good thing happening. He held 40% of the shares in Rongbao Mining. Originally, Yang Jing only had 30%, but in the end he still fell short of Guo Dabao. This ratio was raised to 40.

Forty percent of the shares, that means a net profit of 2 billion U.S. dollars, plus the income from the two oil fields in Beaumont, these three oil fields alone can bring Yang Jing no less than 800 million U.S. dollars in taxes each year. After the net income.

   Such a good thing, a fool would not do it.

   Just do it. After remembering the newly discovered oil reservoir, Yang Jing began to absorb the natural gas contained in the two oil reservoirs.

   After trying the two oil fields in Beaumont, Yang Jing has vaguely guessed something about the law of changes in heavy oil in this oil field.

In Yang Jing’s guess, the heavy oil also contains a lot of natural gas. This natural gas is a great supplement to the holy ring, but for those heavy oil that cannot be exploited, this natural gas is A kind of shackles that restrict them to change.

Originally, this kind of natural gas and heavy oil were in a state of equilibrium, and no one could do anything about it, but once Yang Jing absorbed the natural gas in the heavy oil, it would immediately break this balance, and the heavy oil would lose its balance. Because this balance is broken, a series of chain reactions will occur.

   is reflected in the specific performance, that is, the heavy oil in the reservoir that could not be exploited will gradually become the light crude oil that can be exploited. Until this chain reaction has reached a state of equilibrium, the heavy oil will stop changing, and the final result is that about half of the unrecoverable heavy oil will become recoverable light crude oil.

   Regardless of whether this guess is correct, Yang Jing himself believed it anyway.

The amount of natural gas contained in the heavy oil at the bottom of these two oil reservoirs is very large, and Yang Jing can’t even absorb half of it. The supplement is complete again.

   Of course, this absorption process lasted for seven or eight hours, from more than three o'clock in the morning until almost noon.

Had it not been for Chris, they would have been accustomed to the mysterious performance of their own boss, and had brought a parasol to the boss who was standing under the scorching sun. Just standing in the sun for so long, they would be able to Yang Jing was stupid by the heat.

   Yang Jing, who had successfully completed the supplement, almost collapsed when he returned to the house.

"His sister, next time I will absorb the natural gas in the oilfield, I absolutely can't do it in such an environment, it's terrible." After taking a cold shower extravagantly, Yang Jing lay on his feet lazily. In the air-conditioned room, there were broken thoughts in his mouth.

   Just now, the fat man wanted to tell him about the results of the Bormar Police Department's handling of the attack last night this morning. As a result, Yang Jing didn't have the desire to listen, and he could know the result even if he didn't listen.

   The Libyans are fully armed and illegally crossing the border. It's still late at night. It goes without saying what they want to do. With the precedent that the Amenas gas plant was attacked by Libyan militants five years ago, even if you guessed this time, you can guess what the Algerian government's attitude towards this matter is.

   There is absolutely no merit in the oil field.

   China’s strong rise in recent years is not nonsense. China now even dares to face the United States. Only Algeria is nothing. The gang of high-ranking government officials in Algiers are all clear.

   Since the oil field has not received any losses, everything is fine. As for the Libyans who died, they deserved it. His sister, terrorists still want human rights, so let's stay where it is cool. The Sahara doesn't welcome terrorists.

   Looking at Yang Jingxun, he didn't have any energy, and the fat man was also very witty and didn't say much.

   However, Yang Jing is a person with the "backfeeding" skill after all. After the natural treasure that he just absorbed has been wandering in his body for a few times, the taste that is no different from heatstroke disappears immediately.

   "Fatty, according to my observations, I think there should be more than one oil reservoir in this oil field." Yang Jing, who was lying on the bed and wearing only a pair of shorts, said to the fatty.

The fat man picked up the water cup and blew it, sipped a sip of tea, and then said, "Is there another oil reservoir here? I don't think it's possible. I know, the French have been in this area for about 100 square meters in the past 30 years. There are no less than ten survey wells drilled on the ground over a kilometer. If there are oil reservoirs, how can the French not find them?”

"Cut, the French are better than they can’t find new oil reservoirs. It doesn’t mean that we can’t find them. For example, based on my observations this morning, I think there should be other oil fields next to this old oil field. An oil reservoir with large reserves, but unfortunately the French did not discover it."

   Hearing Yang Jing's affirmation, the fat man suddenly became energetic, "Lao Yang, what you said is true"

  Yang Jing glanced at the fat man, "Is it true? It’s not a problem to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to drill a well. Now, it’s not so hard to drill a survey well."

   The fat man rubbed his hands and smiled, "I said Jingge, have you seen something with your mysterious big hope technique again"

"I only saw you getting fat again in the past few days." Yang Jing laughed and teased the fat man. "Don't ask so much. You know this kind of thing and I know it. Don't talk nonsense. Fat man, just follow me. Yes, just try a survey well. I am also a major shareholder of Rongbao Mining. Can I still be joking with a survey well worth hundreds of thousands of dollars?"

   "Well, you are the boss, you have the final say, I will arrange for domestic workers to do this tomorrow."

  If climate factors are eliminated, drilling oil wells in the Sahara Desert is actually relatively easy. Like the eastern part of Algeria, the oil reservoirs here are mostly medium-shallow oil reservoirs with a depth of about one kilometer. Just like the oil reservoir currently being exploited in the Oham Oilfield, the depth of the oil well is only more than 1,000 meters, and the oil reservoir that Yang Jing just discovered, if the oil well is positioned accurately, only one oil well with a depth of 900 meters needs to be drilled. , You can successfully mine.

Now with the continuous improvement of drilling technology, oil well drilling is not difficult~lightnovelpub.net~ Oil wells with a depth of tens of thousands of meters can be drilled, and oil wells with a range of more than a thousand meters, as long as it goes well, it is only half of them. The time of the coming month.

   In the Sahara Desert, in addition to the surface layer of sand with an average thickness of less than four meters, there are dry rivers and lithosphere below. The thickness of the sand layer near Borma is a little thicker, but it is only more than 20 meters. As long as the upper layer is protected when drilling, the drilling below is not a difficult task.

   Like Zheng Shuang and the others, the dozens of oil workers that Fatty first brought from China, except for a few oil refinery engineers, belonged to the top drilling team. After all, after acquiring the Oham Oilfield from Total, it also took down Total's survey rights and mining rights in a radius of more than 400 square kilometers near Borma.

   These top domestic survey teams come here to survey this area. Although the possibility of discovering new oil reservoirs is unlikely, it must be surveyed.

   Now that Yang Jing accidentally discovered this oil reservoir, these survey workers do not need to go out at night every day to survey the desert area. They rarely work during the day, and most of the outdoor activities are carried out at night.

In this kind of ghost place, there are basically no people seen outside during the day, three hundred and sixty-five days a year. No one wants to work outdoors with a high temperature of more than 40 degrees or even more than 50 degrees. That is not work. , That's looking for death

  Most outdoor work is done at night, or in the first half of the night. Although the temperature of the Sahara at night is a bit lower, it is within a range that people can bear. It is no problem to wear clothes at most. Where is it like the daytime, it can make people hot and want to peel off the skin, and a little bit Heat stroke if you don’t pay attention
