City: Ocean Mining Ship

Starting from the seaside of Zhangjia Village, we arrived at the Jiaozhi Sea.

The straight-line distance is less than 1,000 kilometers.

But we definitely can't go in a straight line, because there are islands in the middle, so we must take a detour.

But even so, the total voyage is less than 800 nautical miles, which is equivalent to more than 1,300 kilometers.

At a speed of 418 knots.

It took 1 hour and 40 minutes!

"Sail to the Jiaozhi Sea!"

Zhang Heng looked at the sea chart on the virtual screen and arrived at the exclusive economic zone of the Jiaozhi Sea. The distribution of minerals has also been detected. There is a huge oil field under the sea, and this oil field extends from the high seas: "The location marked as Oil Field No. 3."

"Captain, Oil Field No. 3 is only 8 nautical miles away from the Jiaozhi territory."

"I know, I don't need you to remind me, this oil field completely belongs to Jiaozhi, there is no dispute."

Zhang Heng has made up a lot of marine knowledge, so he is naturally clear and emphasized: "The target is Jiaozhi's oil field, this super-large oil field at the junction of their exclusive economic zone and the high seas, take your time, don't rush, anyway, it's all ours, it won't be too late to mine it later."

Steal crude oil!

Stolen directly to Jiaozhi's home.

There is no burden in my heart. Over the years, Jiaozhi has been jumping happily, and he will not be polite.

"Captain, Oilfield No. 3 is a medium-sized oilfield. According to Jiaozhi's proven reserves, it reaches about 65 million tons, and the oil production can reach about 25 million tons!"

Intelligent No. 1 was reciting the old scripture, and soon changed the subject: "Among them, natural gas is about 45 billion cubic meters, but this is their proven reserves. According to the feedback from the scanning detection, this oilfield has reached the standard of a large oilfield."

"The total reserves exceed 100 million tons, about 130 million tons." Intelligent No. 1 added.

It is worth mentioning!

Internationally, there is a classification of oil fields, such as saying that oil fields with reserves less than 61 million tons are small oil fields.

61 million tons to 67 million tons are medium-sized oil fields.

Large oil fields are 67 million tons to 290 million tons.

More than 290 million tons are called super-large oil fields.

"The detection technology of Jiaozhi needs to be improved!"

Zhang Heng curled his lips in disdain, stating a fact, and ignored it: "Prepare for mining operations, and the processing cabin should also work simultaneously. This trip must fill up the storage cabin before returning."

"Captain, I'm afraid it will be difficult!"

Intelligent No. 1 did not refuse the order, but had to terminate the execution due to the actual situation. It quickly explained the situation: "Crude oil is liquid, and there is no isolation in the storage cabin. After processing and refining, it is still in liquid form and will be mixed together again."

"Oh!"

Zhang Heng shrugged, somewhat helpless. It was basic common sense. He only cared about pretending, and with the mentality of a thief who never leaves empty-handed, he ignored the fact that crude oil is a liquid: "Okay, then extract 1,860 tons and then return."

"The only pity is that natural oil cannot be extracted, otherwise the oil field would be packed and taken away."

"By the way, be careful not to pack everything away at once. Jiaozhi has already mined this oil field. What about so many offshore oil wells?"

"Keep some crude oil around the oil wells."

"The total reserves are 130 million tons, and about 50 million tons of crude oil can be mined, leaving 90 billion cubic meters of natural gas. So let's extract 48 million tons and leave 2 million tons for them."

"These 2 million tons are enough for them to mine for a while. When their oil wells stop producing oil, it will be a long time. It's good that no one knows about it!"

Zhang Heng's face was full of teasing, and there was also a sense of joy after the prank.

"Leave only 2 million tons and pack them up with the entire oil field. There is no difference in the rest." Smart No. 1 said weakly.

"Execute the command!"

Zhang Heng blushed, feeling somewhat guilty.

"Start mining operations!"

Smart No. 1 was formulaic.

"Swoosh!"

It was just a matter of a moment, the whole process did not exceed three seconds.

The storage tank was filled with crude oil, which is known as black gold. There was not a drop less or more, no zeros or round numbers, just 1,860 tons.

The mining ship has such capabilities. As for the crude oil retained around the oil well, it was also very concentrated. It must have been calculated very rigorously, and not even a drop more was taken away.

Rigorous!

Well, extremely rigorous, which is also one of the advantages of the mining ship.

"Return home!"

Zhang Heng did not stop. He wanted to empty the oil field, up to 48 million tons of crude oil, but he needed to run a lot of lying, but on the way back, he did not forget to do something else: "Open the processing catalog."

As soon as the catalog was displayed.

He found the difference!

"Damn..."

A subconscious curse said everything.
