Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Iraq's oil is mainly distributed in 73 areas within the country, and only 15 areas are currently exploited. 70% of the natural gas is petroleum associated gas, mainly produced in the Kirkuk oil field in the north and the Rumaila oil field in the south. Currently, the existing nine gas gathering stations have a daily natural gas processing capacity of 42 million cubic meters.

Since the discovery of oil in Iraq, the oil industry has been the main economic pillar of Iraq; the production and export of oil have become the basis for the development of the Iraqi economy. Currently, Iraq's daily crude oil production is 3.5 million barrels, reaching a peak of 4.5 million barrels, accounting for 6% of the world's daily crude oil production. Iran's oil export income accounts for 95% of its foreign exchange earnings. Although its economic structure is relatively simple, fortunately, the country's population is not very large. Therefore, before the war, people lived a very prosperous life.

It can be said that Iraq at this time is a huge treasure house. As long as it is developed well, the profits earned will be immeasurable.

Currently ranked among the top ten oil fields in the world, Ghawar Oilfield is the top one.

The Ghawar Oilfield is located in eastern Saudi Arabia, about 500km east of the capital Riyadh. It has proven reserves of 10.74 billion tons and an annual output of 280 million tons, accounting for 30% of the entire Persian Gulf region. It is the world's largest oil field. The oil well is a self-blowout well. The crude oil contains less wax and is mostly light oil. The freezing point is lower than -20°C, making it easy to transport.

Saudi Arabia discovered the world's largest onshore oil field in the Persian Gulf Basin in 1948 and began production in 1951. The production layer is Jurassic carbonate rock with a depth of 2,200 meters and the oil field area is 3,264 square kilometers.

The second-ranked oil field is the Big Bulgan Oil Field.

The Big Burgan Oilfield is located in southeastern Kuwait, with proven reserves of 9.91 billion tons and an annual output of about 70 million tons. The world's second largest oil field, also known as Bulgan Oil Field. It is located in Kuwait on the coast of the Persian Gulf, 20 kilometers east of the coast of the Arabian Gulf. The oil field structure is a compound anticline, 40km long from north to south, 20km wide from east to west, and covering an area of ​​about 700km2.

Geological surveys began in 1934. Well Burgan 1 was drilled in October 1937; good oil reservoirs were discovered, but oil production did not begin until 1946, after World War II. Discovery wells were drilled at the Magwa High Point in 1951 and at the Ahmadi High Point in 1952. Mining began at these two high points in 1953.

The third largest oil field is the Bolivar Oilfield in South America.

The Bolivar oil field is located in eastern Venezuela, on the Orinoco Plain. Most of it is heavy oil, with proven reserves of 5.2 billion tons and an annual output of 1 million barrels.

The fourth story returns to the Middle East, the Safaniyah oil field.

Located in the northeastern waters of Saudi Arabia, it is the world's largest offshore oil field with proven reserves of 3.32 billion tons. The crude oil is transported via pipelines to Tripoli and Sidon in Lebanon, and to Baniyas Port in Syria for loading. Part of it is exported to Rastanura.

The fifth largest oil field is Rumaila Oil Field in Iraq.

Rumaila Oilfield is located in southern Iraq. It was developed in the 1950s. It is close to the country's oil port and is developing rapidly. Proven reserves are 2.6 billion tons, and annual output accounts for about 60% of Iraq's total.

The sixth largest oil field still belongs to Iraq, Kirkuk Oil Field.

Kirkuk Oilfield is located in northern Iraq and was developed earlier with proven reserves of 2.44 billion tons. However, the current development situation is not very good, mainly because the environment is relatively complex.

The seventh is the Romanishkin Oilfield.

The Romashkin oil field is located in the Volga-Urals oil region of the Soviet Union. The reserves amount to 2.4 billion tons, ranking first in the Soviet Union. The oil field mainly produces medium and heavy crude oil with high sulfur content; production has declined in recent years.

The eighth largest oil field is still in the Soviet Union; the Samoloter Oil Field.

The Samoloter oil field is located in the West Siberian oil region of the Soviet Union, in the middle of West Siberia. It has proven reserves of 2.06 billion tons and an annual output of about 140 million tons. It is second only to the Ghawar Oilfield in Saudi Arabia in the world and is the largest oil production site in the Soviet Union.

The ninth-ranked oil field has something to do with Bao Feng because it is in the Zakum Oilfield in the United Arab Emirates.

The Zakum Oilfield is located in the central and western part of the United Arab Emirates, with proven reserves of 1.59 billion tons. Most of them are spontaneous blowout wells with good crude oil quality and low wax content; there are pipelines leading to Ruwais Oil Port and the capital Abu Dhabi Sinotrans.

The tenth-ranked oil field is the Hasi Messaoud oil field.

The Hasi Messaoud oil field is located in northeastern Algeria, at the northern end of the Sahara Desert. There are few dry wells in the oil field and the unit yield is high; the crude oil has low sulfur content and is of very good quality.

From the World Oilfield Division, it is not difficult to see why Iraqis were so wealthy before the war. I had a bunch of king bombs in my hand, but I was beaten to a pulp by myself. At the same time, it is precisely for this reason that the Japanese will try their best to come to Iraq to exploit oil. Iraq has a treasure trove but does not know how to utilize it; but companies from other countries cannot let go of such a good opportunity.

The President of Iraq chose to leave after having lunch with Bao Zixuan and Koki Iwasaki. And he has made it clear that he can discuss anything with the Second Young Master. His decision is Iraq's decision.

It can be said that it is absolutely authorized, then the problem will be much easier to handle.

They didn't stay in Baghdad for too long. Early the next morning, the second son took the two of them to the oil producing area of ​​Kirkuk.

The last time I accepted Bao Zixuan’s suggestion, Kirkuk already had a certain industrial base. But they are all in the petrochemical industry. To be honest, the pollution is huge. But neither Bao Zixuan nor Iwasaki Koki felt that it was okay. After all, this is not their own territory, and they have no control over the affairs of other countries.

Moreover, the extraction of crude oil will definitely cause certain damage to the environment. If you bring it up now, wouldn't you be shooting yourself in the foot?

Although it has polluted the environment, the income of local residents has increased a lot. Therefore, the Kurds basically did not cause much trouble. After all, the war between Iraq and Iran is over. If they are fooling around, you can imagine what results are waiting for them.

And this time, Baghdad was still focused on developing the local economy. Although they didn't know what medicine was sold in the gourd, they didn't dare to act rashly.

The person in charge of Kirkuk Oilfield began to introduce it to the Japanese: "In Kirkuk Oilfield, the oil-producing layer is Eocene Unified Oligocene reef limestone, 305-400m thick, and 340-1200m deep."

"The inclination angle of the top surface of the reef limestone on both wings of the structure is 50, and the closing height reaches 800m. The two reservoirs below are the Shirani Formation of the Upper Cretaceous and the Kachuk Formation of the Middle to Lower Cretaceous. The Shirani Formation belongs to Fractured limestone, 300m thick, oil reservoir is massive, 40m high, no gas cap, buried depth 1300-1380m."

"The Kachuk Formation is dolomite, 120m thick, and the top surface of the dolomite is buried 1,800m deep. The oil field covers an area of ​​360 square kilometers, and crude oil is mainly stored in the "main limestone"."

"Among them, the pre-reef limestone and some reef limestones have the best reservoir performance. The porosity of the oil layer in the pre-reef phase is above 18%, up to 36%, while the reef limestone is only 4-10%, or even smaller. . In addition to pores, cracks are also particularly developed in the "main limestone". Because the limestone suffered weathering and leaching before the Miocene, geodes and karst caves are also relatively developed, so the production layers are connected over a large area."

Although Koki Iwasaki was confused, he couldn't help but brought experts over. Mitsubishi paid great attention to this time, after Koki Iwasaki arrived in Baghdad. The second group of staff, experts in shipyards and professionals in the petroleum field, set off to prepare to meet up with them.

It can be said that the Japanese are quite well prepared, and it is not difficult to see from this; they still pay great attention to work efficiency when doing things.

When Japanese oil experts saw the data and the oil well eruption, their eyes lit up. In Japan, there are only a few small oil fields along the Sea of ​​Japan; oil reserves are very low. If it were placed in Iraq, it is estimated that they would never mine it. Input and output are not directly proportional.

So how can we not be excited when we see the spouting wells in the Kirkuk oil field? At the same time, I admire the young master very much for being able to mine oil here. If the project is negotiated, Mitsubishi's status in Japan will definitely rise to a higher level.

For science and technology workers, real estate and real estate are necessary; but compared with minerals, no one really pays special attention to them.

Japanese oil expert: "President, based on the data provided by the other party and the analysis of the oil well eruption situation, the Kirkuk oil field alone can meet the consumption of Japan for decades; or even more."

"But what it is exactly needs to be tested personally. It's not that I don't believe the Iraqis, it's just that the data they provided is so amazing that it's unbelievable. Therefore, I am willing to stay here and work here to mine for the Mitsubishi Group. Petroleum provides all technical support.”

The old man in front of me is Japan's top oil expert. Now that he is saying this, it is enough to show what is buried underground. Iwasaki Koki already knew in his heart that the opportunity was right in front of him and he must not let it go.
