Yao Yuan smiled and said, "Since you are here, stay for a while and see how foreign bidding is conducted. This is also a very valuable experience. I also have something to discuss with you."
"That's right." Wen Tiejun said politely, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
The interests between the National Petroleum Corporation and Dongfang Petroleum are closely tied. Until now, the Petroleum Corporation still has more than 70 exploration teams with a total of more than 50,000 people working for Dongfang Petroleum. There are both outsourcing contracts and long-term cooperation.
protocol.
This aspect alone brings hundreds of millions of dollars in profits to the National Petroleum Corporation every year. The most important thing is that this is a technology-based export to earn foreign exchange, which is much more advanced than resource export. Wen Tiejun has been repeatedly praised for this, and he is among the outstanding party members in the country.
, he is the only one.
Not only that, through large-scale participation in the exploration and production of overseas oil fields, relevant experience can be quickly accumulated while promoting the development of technology, which is very attractive to Wen Tiejun, a technocrat. This is why he cares about Dongfang Petroleum's shallow-water oil
Reasons for exploration and mining technology.
This is precisely the reason why Yao Yuan has a good impression of him, and administrative bureaucrats like Xiong Jinhua are what Yao Yuanda is interested in.
Yao Yuan said, "Our chief engineer Qin Zhenjun was originally the president of the Shengli Oilfield Research Institute. He is currently leading the research on the two major projects of Qianhai Oilfield exploration and production technology and offshore drilling platform. At the same time, Chunfeng Academy of Sciences is also involved."
"Wait a minute, Xiao Yao, could you tell me more about the Chunfeng Academy of Science? I'm very interested in this enterprise science and technology research institute you have established." Wen Tiejun interrupted Yao Yuan and said.
Yao Yuan said with a smile, "Of course, Chunfeng Academy of Science is the only business department directly under the Chunfeng Group. It is actually a science and technology company, with two brands and one team. From its establishment to the present, it has invested more than one billion US dollars in research funds.
."
"How much?" Wen Tiejun's eyes almost popped out of his head, suspecting that he heard wrongly.
Yao Yuan repeated, "The research funding of more than one billion US dollars is just research funding."
Wen Tiejun gasped hard, "The National Academy of Sciences' annual research funding is not that much."
Yao Yuan said, "It's different. We are a technology company. The technologies we develop usually have to be put into commercial use within a short period of time, so that we can make profits and maintain operations. Most of what the National Academy of Sciences does is research on top technologies and basic sciences.
It is the technological foundation of a country.”
He still had reservations and did not tell Wen Tiejun that the basic scientific research of Chunfeng Academy of Sciences was also very large, accounting for half of the research funding.
"Oh my god, your investment is so unbelievable. Alas, in the final analysis, you still have to have money. It would be good if we can spend 10 million yuan a year on technology research and development. It's still Huaxia coins." Wen Tiejun was quite disappointed.
Ministerial state-owned enterprises are actually inferior to private enterprises.
Yao Yuan said, "We can cooperate in technology research and development, and specific matters can be discussed by the people below. This is a good thing for both of us."
"Definitely." Wen Tiejun was very interested and said, "Old Xiong only thinks about exchanging resources for foreign technology. I always feel that it is not appropriate. First of all, foreigners will not easily come up with new technologies. After decades of hostility,
, it is not so easy to just make peace with each other. Furthermore, even if they are willing to transfer technology, it will probably be some old technology. But what we pay is irreplaceable energy, and this account is not worthwhile no matter how we calculate it. This is still
You have to take into account the various additional conditions they require when transferring technology."
It is obvious that Wen Tiejun is a sober cadre in the world. Like Xia Honghua, he has a long-term vision and can clearly see the pros and cons.
Yao Yuan filled him with another beer and said, "We are such a big country with a population of one billion. Imagine if we calculate it based on the per capita automobile consumption level in the United States, how much gasoline do we have to produce in a year? Obviously, even if we take the country's total
Even if the oil fields are exhausted, they won’t be able to sustain it for long.”
"It is inevitable for oil companies to go global and actively participate in overseas energy competition. Importing oil on a large scale is also an inevitable measure. If there is no high-precision technology, it will be equivalent to being choked by others. How much will a ton of oil cost?
You have to pay as much as you want. The core of a company's competitiveness is technology. If nothing else, there must be oil under the seabed with such a large ocean area. If you don't have the technology, you can only ask others to mine it. This alone
A large amount of interests will be lost in the process, and these are the interests of the people of the whole country."
Wen Tiejun agreed very much with Yao Yuan's view. He said, "I agree with you on this aspect. The higher authorities want to establish an offshore oil company to develop offshore oil in a unified way. It took a lot of effort for me to stay for the oil company."
I’m worried that CNOOC will give away all the oil fields in shallow sea areas to outsiders, but in the end they won’t be able to get back the technology.”
"This worry is right, but there is no need to worry too much. After all, there is a higher-level management department, and our senior management is still very clear-headed. In fact, according to Xiong Jinhua's strategy, what is lost is time, and what we lack most is time."
Yao Yuan said.
Wen Tiejun nodded slowly and said rather helplessly, "It's a pity that we can only bid jointly with China National Offshore Oil Corporation, otherwise I am willing to continue to cooperate with Dongfang Petroleum."
Yao Yuan smiled and said, "But you clearly didn't have confidence in me just now."
"I have to say that." Wen Tiejun smiled bitterly and shook his head, "The proven oil reserves in the Caspian Sea area of Azerbaijan are as high as 2 billion tons, the geological reserves are 4 billion tons, and the prospective reserves may be even more. You can get 3%
Ten is enough to prove your strength, there is no doubt about it."
What is the concept of this data?
As of this year, China's proven oil reserves are 2 billion tons, which is only equivalent to the Caspian Sea area of Azerbaijan. The Caspian Sea area of Azerbaijan specifically refers to the Baku shallow oil field.
Of course, China has a vast territory and rich resources. As time goes by and exploration technology develops, proven reserves will continue to increase. There is no problem with prospective reserves exceeding 10 billion tons.
Wen Tiejun knows these data, which shows that he has made great efforts to study the development trajectory of Dongfang Petroleum, so he has confidence in Yao Yuan and Dongfang Petroleum.
"I can probably guess what method you used to bid, but it is exactly this method that we cannot do now. The result is actually very obvious. To participate in the bidding of Sedan Oilfield, Dongfang Petroleum must be the main one. Unfortunately,
The superiors disagree." Wen Tiejun said in a deep voice.
Yao Yuan naturally heard it. At the meeting, Wen Tiejun proposed to form a joint venture with Dongfang Petroleum as the main company to bid, but it was rejected. The leaders who supported the National Offshore Oil Corporation insisted on using the National Offshore Oil Corporation as the main company, and wanted to
Let Oriental Petroleum act as a death squad.
5% of the shares is not even considered a bounty for the "Suicide Squad".
"It turns out that Mr. Xiong wanted me to be the suicide captain." Yao Yuan said with a smile.
Wen Tiejun spread his hands to express his helplessness.
