A group of senior veterans were confused by the extravagant road show around them, and like investors, they all expressed their willingness to "invest" in this plan. When they saw the effect, they immediately took out the sketch and calculated the investment-return situation.
He explained each one, specifically mentioning the cost of obtaining food in Vietnam and oil in Brunei - "almost as low as nothing."
"I don't know much about the situation in Vietnam, and you have read quite a few reports. It can be said that a lot has been done. The water and heat conditions there are excellent all year round, but there are places like ours where there are either floods or droughts." People around me know that these people are worried about the situation.
I’m not very interested in food, so I just brushed off the advantages of Vietnam and went straight to the topic: “Brunei’s oil”.
Petroleum is known as the blood of industry. In fact, it is not only used as fuel to provide power, but also has a greater use in chemical production. Both oil and natural gas are important raw materials in the chemical industry, especially organic chemicals.
The petroleum industry of the Senate is very weak, not because of lack of technology or because the Planning Institute is knocking on the door, but because there is no ready-made industrial chain for the supply of petroleum in this time and space.
As long as the resources have been utilized in this time and space, such as: iron, coal, sulfur, lime, tin, copper... there is more or less a certain industrial supply chain, whether it is through trade or organizing mining by oneself, it is relatively easy.
Oil does not have such benefits. Although there are many records of sporadic extraction and use, there was no commercial extraction in the 17th century. From exploration, equipment, and worker training, the Senate had to do it by itself, and the initial investment was very large.
So far, the oil resources that the Senate can exploit are limited to some shale oil and oil produced in Taiwan. The former has a high cost of mining, while the latter has a small mining volume. Except for some home-made oil refining equipment, the petrochemical industry has almost no oil resources.
It can be said that there is nothing.
This has also been a concern in the chemical industry for a long time.
"Brunei's oil, according to old time and space data, is mainly produced in Malay District, which is the Belait District area." The surrounding people repeated it in English to show their "professional sense". Of course, he did not know how to use it.
What is the error in pronouncing this Malay word in English?
"This area is very small, less than three square kilometers, and is located in the southernmost part of Brunei. Brunei's oil and gas extraction are concentrated here."
The elders here all know the name of Brunei's oil fields. Some of them have been exposed to Brunei's crude oil at work, but few people understand how this kind of oil is produced. A few words around them attracted their attention.
.
"Everyone may know that the most famous oil field in Brunei is called Siya Oilfield..."
Oil exploration near Brunei in the old time began in 1899. It began closer to the area near Bandar Seri Begawan - about the later Bandar Seri Begawan City. Then gradually extended to the southwest of the country. Seria
The first oil well in the area was explored by the British in 1926. The first commercial well produced oil in 1928 and entered formal commercial production in 1929. Later, oil exploration in the Silia area was monopolized by Royal Dutch Shell.
continues into the 21st century.
"I remember that Brunei oil is produced offshore. If it were produced offshore, it would be a waste." Someone asked.
"The main oil wells in the Siya Oilfield were all onshore oil wells before the 1960s, and the main oil wells were all located along the coast. They are also shallowly buried. They are easy to exploit - and we do not need to invest too much effort into the interior.
.”
To sum up, Brunei’s oil fields have the following benefits:
1. It is shallowly buried and developed early. The earliest exploration began in 1899. Commercial oil was produced in 1928. Moreover, the reserves are relatively large, and stable production was possible from the 1920s until D-Day.
2. The oil field area is relatively small and the coordinates are relatively clear.
3. The crude oil produced by the Siya Oilfield is high-quality light crude oil. It is suitable for the current utilization level - after all, the industrial capacity of the Senate can only be simple atmospheric fractionation. Catalytic reforming of Shenma,
Basically, it is the level of your lifetime.
4. The oil field area is right on the coast, which is convenient for shipping. In the old time and space, a light railway was built from the oil field area to the port near Bandar Seri Begawan because of the construction sequence. If the hydrological conditions in the area near the oil field are found to be suitable on this plane,
You may wish to consider building a new port directly on the shore. Before the new port is completed, barges can also be used.
It doesn't matter what he said, the veterans of the Chemical Industry Port were almost boiling - such excellent conditions have been idle for a long time. Not to mention mining, they have never done any exploration. This "executive committee", no, "seniors"
What on earth are the "thieves of the hospital" doing?!
Whenever people are angry, they naturally want to find the culprit. Unfortunately, after the second general meeting, the big target of the Executive Committee has disappeared, and the elders have more or less participated in political discussions. To be honest,
For the moment, I can't recommend a specific person as to who is the most hateful. As for Wu De from the Planning Institute and Zhan Wuya from the Gongye Group, they both have high popularity and prestige in the Gongye Group, both from a sense of reason and from face.
It doesn't even make sense to start spraying.
In the end, Ma Qianzhu was unfortunately shot again and was labeled as a "thief of the Senate." Although Ji Tuisi had long coveted Brunei's oil fields, his current emotions tended to get out of control. Now that he had "
"Unified thinking", there is no need to make the matter bigger, and he signals to everyone that enough is enough. What's more, if you blindly turn over old scores, you will be suspected of being a "black x general".
"We are holding a seminar here, and the focus is on solving problems in chemical production. Let's just discuss resources. Don't use it unlimitedly, let alone engage in personal attacks." Ji Tuisi has long led the chemical industry, and in extremely difficult times
It is quite popular to maintain the operation of the chemical industry under such circumstances. "Since the comrades around us have put forward such a good suggestion, we should have a discussion around petrochemical construction."
"If Brunei's oil fields can be exploited, our current petrochemical project in Danzhou will have to be changed - at least there is no need to start the oil shale plant." Someone suggested, "Isn't this low-level duplication of construction? It will be saved.
Wouldn’t it be better if the resources were directly used for petrochemical projects?”
Everyone agrees that shale oil is a resource that petrochemical companies can use without using it. Its extraction cost is too high. In the old days, unless the price of oil per barrel exceeded 60 US dollars, it would be almost impossible to use it.
There is no profit at all - this is a cost that was suppressed in the United States only after the new fracturing technology was introduced. In this time and space, the only way for the Senate to mine oil shale is to directly dig the oil shale ore and then refine it.
Not only the transportation cost is very high, it also seriously pollutes the air, produces a large amount of waste residue, and the yield is not high.
The surrounding people saw that the atmosphere was lively and gave Er Zhang a wink. Zhang Xiao interjected: "Don't be so anxious. The oil shale in Danzhou and Maoming is real, but it is transported slower and the quantity is smaller. This
Brunei’s crude oil is still in its infancy, who knows how long it will take before it will fall into our hands?”
"Speaking of which, Ma Qianzhu is still causing trouble and getting stuck everywhere!" someone said.
"I think it's not just Ma Hu's problem. A group of people in the Senate are afraid of going south. I don't even understand what they are afraid of. As soon as I mention the matter of overseas resource extraction, I will immediately list a lot of disadvantages for you.
factor!"
"What are you afraid of? We're afraid that our industry will be ruined." Zhang Hao said quietly, hiding behind others, "otherwise, how can we show the importance of their administrative leadership?"
These words suddenly made the elders explode again, because these words spoke to their hearts. Almost all industrial elders have this fear in their hearts. The elders in the main administrative departments have more and more power, and gradually
With the ability to take charge of the overall situation, except for a few industrial veterans, although all of them have been granted official positions and have various titles, without exception, they are all technical cadres. No matter what industry you are in
The leaders are still technical elites, and when it comes to specific projects, they have to rely on administrative bureaucrats.
Many people were very disgusted with this phenomenon in the old time and space. But in the new time and space, with the continuous growth of the Senate, it has begun to appear again - bureaucracy seems to be an inevitable consequence of organization. Almost everyone among the industrial veterans has "
Experience in “running the department”, “finding people for approval” and “building relationships”.
"No! We can't let others manipulate us like this anymore!" The surrounding people stepped forward at this time, waving their arms, and said excitedly, "We have come to this time and space to endure these hardships, and to work like this day and night on 607,
After all, isn’t it for the great cause of the Senate? Now that we are being ignored to such an extent that we can’t even get the raw materials for work, what is the purpose of this?!”
Zhang Xiao lost no time in jumping out: "We can no longer be tools! We must put forward our ideas to the Senate! The blind command of amateurs commanding experts cannot continue any longer!"
More than a dozen elders at the seminar suddenly became excited. It seemed that someone suddenly told them the doubts they had had in their hearts for many years. Some people thought of the past of the maid xx, and they were suddenly excited. It was as if the original passion had returned to them.
on the body.
At this time, slogans were shouted around: "Go to the South! Go to the South! The South is the future of the Senate!"
Er Zhang immediately clapped and took the lead in shouting rhythmically along with those around him: "Go south! Go south! Go south!"
Under their instigation, the elders at the seminar were all infected. One after another they stood up, applauded, and shouted slogans to go south.
Just as the people around him were shouting excitedly, he saw Ji Tuisi applauding there, but he didn't shout anything. Seeing the people around him looking at him, a smile appeared on Ji Tuisi's lips.
