From the Island Owner to the King

And as the greatest hero.

Halliburton certainly won't be stingy.

He and his exploration team will get a very large bonus.

He could at least get a million-dollar bonus, and even some Halliburton stock.

Bill Bob and Chen Rui stood on the chord of the boat with a glass of red wine in their hands.

The two talked.

Bill Bob kept bringing the topic to Halliburton oil service with purpose. He said that Halliburton oil service has achieved remarkable performance and successfully built many oil services in the Middle East, Norway, Canada, the United States and South America. project! ! It has the most advanced oil service technology in the world and a group of excellent oil workers! !

In 2014, Halliburton took over Baker Hughes, the third largest oil service company, with $34.6 billion in new shares and cash, becoming a new Halliburton with a market value of $70 billion.

In order to increase Chen Rui's image of Halliburton's oil service, he is also trying to persuade Chen Rui to create conditions for Halliburton to win this world-class oil field.

Holding the wine glass, Chen Rui nodded and smiled, without making any clear reply.

"Mr. Chen, do you need to see Platform 2 in person?" Bill Bob said to Chen Rui.

"Okay." Chen Rui nodded.

After the two finished drinking the wine in the wine glasses, they put the empty wine glasses on the table next to them.

Then, turn away from the deck chord.

The two took a small boat to platform 2.

The sea was covered with a layer of oil, black, like ink, very thick, and the oil layer drifted and spread with the current.

Chen Rui also saw some dead fish and dead seabirds floating above the oil layer.

Seeing this, Bill Bob's face was a little ugly. It is as disgusting as swallowing a fly, which will greatly reduce Chen Rui's image of Halliburton and cast doubt on Halliburton's advanced oil extraction technology.

To know. Oil pollution of the ocean is something no oil country wants to see. In particular, Tortuga Island, a country dominated by tourism.

In order to protect the marine environment, many oil countries have signed oil production service contracts with oil service companies, and there is a rule that a drop of oil will not enter the sea, and not a drop of oil will fall into the sea. This is the most basic principle of marine oil production.

It's good now, it's polluted a lot.

Fortunately, the fine and spray were controlled in time.

The extent of sea surface pollution is not large. within control.

Oil workers are cleaning up the oil in an effort to decontaminate the waters.

Chen Rui and Bill Bob boarded the platform.

This is an easy platform.

When the oil production is officially launched, the platform can be as high as 500 meters high and has a dry weight of more than 600,000 tons. It takes 10 minutes to take the elevator from the bottom of the platform to the platform deck.

Moreover, not one platform, but a bunch of platforms covering this sea.

Extracting oil is very expensive.

Of course, the more money you burn, the more oil service companies can make a fortune.

Chen Rui took a brief look on the platform. The deck is very clean and well maintained, and then there are some shabby bedrooms on the deck. The area of ​​the bedroom is very small and cramped, only one bed can be placed, and several people can sleep in one room.

After the tour, Chen Rui asked Bill Bob, "Can the reserves of this oil field be proved?"

"Yes, we need some time." Bill. Bob said.

Chen Rui nodded, looked at Bill Bob and said, "Give me an oilfield reserves report as soon as possible."

Bill Bob nodded.

After an hour on platform two.

Then. Chen Rui left the platform and returned to the 'Starfish' yacht. Return to Tortuga Island by yacht.

the next day.

Chen Rui will head the Finance Department of the Royal Assets Management Council and the Government Finance Division, the HKMA. The elites of the central bank convened in secret.

Get ready to short oil.

Although Chen Rui does not understand stocks, oil futures, buy short, buy up or something.

However, he knew two things.

First, the elites of the Finance Department of the Royal Assets Management Council and the Government Finance Department, the HKMA, and the Central Bank will give him appropriate advice on shorting oil.

Second, when the news of the exploration of a world-class oil field spreads to the world and is confirmed, the international oil price will definitely fall, at least in a short period of time.

Chen Rui used these two points to make a fortune.

The Royal Assets Management Committee has put out 6.4 billion US dollars, the government, the government's financial management bureau, and the central bank have taken out all the foreign exchange reserves of 2.7 billion US dollars, ready to make a fortune.

Although it is said that the HKMA and the central bank put all the country's foreign exchange reserves into short positions in the international trading market, it is somewhat irrational.

However, why not make money without losing money?

2.7 billion US dollars, as long as 50% of the gains, a resort plus a five-star resort hotel has the money.

The elites of the Finance Department of the Royal Assets Management Committee, the Government Finance Department, the HKMA, and the Central Bank are secretly preparing, preparing funds, making various plans, opening various secret trading accounts, and so on.

a week later.

Chen Rui got the reserves report of the oil field.

The name of the oil field, Burris Field.

In the transliteration of the Indian language, the sea north of Hispaniola is called Beres.

Bolis, in the Indian language, means mystical, meaning the sea of ​​mystery.

Chen Rui turned over the first page and turned directly to the second page.

The next few lines of page 2 list the reserves figures for the Burris field.

Reserves, 7.34 billion tons.

Rao is that Chen Rui has long known that this is a super-giant oil field.

However, seeing the figure of 7.34 billion tons of reserves, my heart was beating rapidly.

Chen Rui has checked some information on the world's oil reserves before, and he is very clear about the weight of this number.

A total of 41,000 oil fields have been discovered and developed in the world.

Generally speaking, oil fields with proven reserves of more than 685 million tons belong to super-giant oil fields, and oil fields with proven reserves of more than 68.5 million tons belong to giant oil fields.

There are 42 super giant oil fields and 328 giant oil fields.

The world's largest oil field is located in Saudi Arabia, located in the east of Saudi Arabia, 500 kilometers east of the capital Riyadh, the Qawar oil field, with proven reserves of 10.74 billion tons.

The world's second largest oil field is located in Kuwait, the Dabulgan oil field in the southeast of Kuwait, with proven reserves of 9.91 billion tons.

The third largest oil field in the world is in Venezuela, located in eastern Venezuela, the Bolivar oil field on the Orinoco Plain, with proven reserves of 5.2 billion tons.

The discovery of the Bolivar oilfield replaced the Bolivar oilfield with a reserve of 7.34 billion tons and won the bronze crown of the third largest oilfield in the world.

'Barrel' is the usual way of measuring oil in the West.

1 ton is equal to about 7.33 barrels. (To be continued)
