The visual underwater detection technology project team were all young men in their twenties. It was their first time to go abroad and their first time to fly on a legendary special plane. They were so excited that they talked nonsense all the way.
Not long after they started working at Chunfeng Academy of Science, they heard other employees mention that if the business trip destination was more than a thousand kilometers away, they usually had to fly back and forth.
Young scientific researchers yearn for it, especially newcomers who have just joined the job.
Unexpectedly, I would have the opportunity to fly 4,000 kilometers on a special plane to distant Central Asia.
After arriving in Almaty, something even more unexpected happened to them. The personnel and equipment actually transferred directly to the An-12 medium-sized transport aircraft at the airport and took off again. They flew more than a thousand kilometers westward and landed in a smaller airport than Almaty.
Figure International Airport much smaller airport landing.
Before they could react, the ground crew transferred the equipment onto the Mi-17 transport helicopter, and a comrade in charge informed them to board the helicopter.
After everything was prepared, the two Mi-17 transport helicopters carrying them and the equipment took off and flew northwest, landing at the field helicopter landing field in the operation area more than half an hour later.
Only then can we reach our destination.
From Nangang International Airport to Almaty, from Almaty to Atyrau Airport, and then from Atyrau Airport to the field helicopter landing field in the No. 1 operation area, this is a link established by Oriental Petroleum from the headquarters location to the first
Aerial transportation lines in the No. 1 operation area.
Among them, Nangang-Almaty is operated by New United Airlines, Almaty-Atyrau is operated by New Taipei General Aviation, and helicopters at Atyrau Airport-No. 1 Operation Area are jointly provided and operated by New Taipei General Aviation and the Kazakh military.
.
Kazakhstan's own air transportation capacity is very limited. Under this circumstance, New Taipei General Aviation, a joint venture between Southern Industrial and Xinjian Group, which mainly serves oil pipelines, has obtained the aviation operating rights issued by the Kazakh government.
Under this circumstance, New Taipei General Aviation purchased more than a dozen medium-sized transport aircraft and regional passenger aircraft, mainly An-12, to support its business in Kazakhstan.
Oil exploration is worth a thousand taels of gold once a cannon is fired, and the support of logistical supplies alone is an expense that many companies are daunting.
Among the oil areas in the world, the cost of oil extraction in the Middle East is the lowest. It is described as being so low that only a hoe can be used to dig out oil from the ground. Moreover, it is all high-quality light crude oil.
The cost of oil extraction in Saudi Arabia was once as low as US$0.5 per barrel.
In the Middle East, the production cost of Sedan Oilfield is among the highest. Although it is a near-shore area, the water depth of the oil well is more than 1,000 meters, so the production cost is very high.
Even so, the production cost of a barrel of crude oil in the Sedan Oilfield does not exceed 5 US dollars per barrel. Oriental Oilfield's own production can reduce the production cost to the level of 3 US dollars.
On the other hand, in Kazakhstan, the mining cost of Maksha Oilfield is as high as 8 US dollars, which does not include transportation costs!
After the three young men from the visual underwater detection technology project team and the three assistant researchers assigned to them arrived at the No. 1 operation area, they actually saw the big boss!
The project that these three young men are responsible for is one of the thousands of ordinary projects of the Chunfeng Academy of Sciences. Even in famous Western research institutions, there are no assistants, but in the Chunfeng Academy of Sciences, there are assistants, as long as you can become a researcher.
The three young men all made great inventions and creations while in school, and they joined the Chunfeng Academy of Sciences as official researchers.
Yao Yuan greeted them with a smile and asked for it straight to the point.
One of the young men thought for a while and said awkwardly, "Dean, the underwater robot we made works underwater. If it is underground, there is no way to put it down."
Yao Yuan walked over and looked around the equipment. The terminal was a slightly rough underwater robot. In the 1990s, it was already very powerful to be able to make a usable robot. Roughness is nothing.
After looking at it for a while, Yao Yuan's eyes fell on the control harness, turned to Qin Zhenjun and said, "Actually, we only need one camera and lighting."
"Well, at least we need to know the water depth, flow rate, and river width. We don't have the relevant technology to do three-dimensional detection." Qin Zhenjun said.
Yao Yuan pointed at the robot and said, "Take the robot out and you can make a small terminal on site that can go underground through the drilling pipe. Can you do that?"
The three young men looked at each other, and the one who spoke just now gritted his teeth and said, "We need special materials, and here... there are no conditions here."
"Make a list of what materials are needed, and I'll have them flown over by the rear," Yao Yuan said.
The young man hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth again and said, "I can do it!"
Yao Yuan, however, was not so talkative and asked with a smile, "How long will it take?"
"Five days a week!" the young man replied.
"Okay, I'll give you five days."
After a few words, Yao Yuan went to the drilling site.
The three young men breathed a heavy sigh of relief and whispered, "Dean Yao has such a strong aura, my calves were shaking just now."
"Didn't you hear what the old people said? Dean Yao is also a technical expert, a serious master's degree candidate in mechanics from NPU."
"The first product developed by our Chunfeng Academy of Sciences using applied technology is the double-donkey-head oil extraction unit, which was developed by President Yao."
"He seems to be a year or two younger than us..."
Not to mention the emotion of the young researcher, Yao Yuan was watching the progress of the drilling at the site. Materials were taken up every fifty meters for analysis, but no oil or gas was ever found.
Yao Yuan was very steady, waiting patiently with his arms folded.
Every time he collected materials, he personally tested them and discussed various possibilities with Qin Zhenjun.
The local daytime maximum temperature reaches 12 degrees, and the temperature plummets to minus 7 or 8 degrees. The temperature difference is huge. Compared with the same latitude in my country, the temperature difference is larger.
Workers sweat from working during the day, and at night the hot air will form frost on their masks.
The weather forecast said that there would be heavy snow in the evening. At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Yao Yuan asked the drilling team to stop all activities and everyone went back to the cabin to rest and recuperate.
Chinese workers are famous around the world for their hard work, but that doesn't mean they have to endure hardship.
Dongfang Petroleum's life support measures are in place. The field-operated prefabricated house developed by the Chunfeng Academy of Science can withstand level 10 winds and heavy snowfalls. It has a comprehensive constant temperature system. It is more comfortable in the prefabricated house than at home. After all, not every household has it.
air conditioner.
After dinner, Yao Yuan and Qin Zhenjun drank tea in the office while slowly reading the latest geological reports. There are two scientists from the Oriental Petroleum Geology Institute in the No. 1 operation area. They have a geological analysis room equipped with computers.
A young geological scientist in his forties entered the data obtained today into a computer model. After pressing the start button, he felt a cold wind rush into his neck from behind. He stood up to close the window that had not been closed, and stopped.
After a moment, I looked outside and saw that it was already snowing all over the sky.
Close the window and return to the workstation, a prompt box will pop up on the model.
The young geological scientist was stunned for a moment, and stared at the prompt box carefully. He suspected that he had made a mistake, so he looked carefully again.
