Text 1466. The majestic blue sea

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    There were dark clouds on the ocean in the distance, and it looked like a storm was about to hit soon. Anderson tightened his tight clothes.

    It¡¯s April now, and it¡¯s not very cold on the Pacific Ocean near the equator, but when he thinks of the coming storm, Anderson still can¡¯t help tightening his clothes.

    Mader has been floating around on this sea for several months, but he and his exploration team still haven't produced a drop of oil. If this continues, I'm afraid the bosses above will be unable to survive. If they  If he chooses to cancel the later exploration activities, he and his guys will be unemployed and go home.

    As an oil exploration team member, I have been unable to find an oil well for a long time. If I tell it, I will be criticized by many people.

    And once someone is given a name like that, it will easily be associated with the name of the God of Mold. People who dig wells, no matter which country they are from, are actually very superstitious.

    ¡°If someone knew that I had been searching for several years without finding even a drop of oil, I would probably have to go to the Middle East to find a job in the future.

    As a native Australian, Anderson has a very serious love affair with his family. Although the salaries offered to oil exploration personnel like him abroad, especially in the Middle East, are very high, he himself does not particularly like to work in places like the Middle East.  Work.

    Because that place, in his mind, only had the impression of backwardness and barbarism, not to mention that his wife had just given birth to his second child?

    As an exploration team member of Dirham Company, he took his exploration team on a boat.  Area 35 off the coast of Perth.  But it has been wandering for a long time.

    This is area 35.  and Area 36, ??but last year the company broke everything and mortgaged its oil pipelines, which were not long in the country, as well as dozens of gas stations in Melbourne and Sydney, and then exchanged them for loans, and then started bidding again.  Exploration sector won.

    In other words, the company had already spent more than 100 million Australian dollars in these two areas before finding any oil here. I heard that the company could no longer sustain it.

    But it seems that it was after a venture capital company injected capital into the company.  This allowed the company to overcome this difficulty.

    And this money is what they use for exploration, renting ships, renting offshore drilling platforms, and their labor. If they continue to be unable to find oil wells like this, they will probably be able to get out soon.  .

    But this is unscientific. He had chatted with James, a geologist in the company, who was a top student majoring in geological exploration at the University of Wollongong. He had worked at BP before and had been to Azerbaijan.  Many dry old oil fields in the Baku oil field were re-selected by him.  There are those that are rejuvenated.

    Although he didn¡¯t know how much of what the guy said was true or false, he agreed that the man must have some ability. After all, he and James had been working together in the same boat for a long time.

    James told him that based on his analysis of Heidi¡¯s signal through sonar scanning, the areas most likely to have oil reservoirs in the waters off Perth are the No. 35 and No. 36 plates.

    But now they have been floating on the sea for more than half a year, but they haven¡¯t produced a drop of oil. This is very unscientific!

    James is also on their exploration ship now, hiding in the office all day long, holding the sonar scanned drawings, doing research, not knowing what can be researched.

    Forget it, he didn¡¯t think about it so much. Anderson tightened his collar and looked up into the distance again. It was estimated that in more than two hours, the cumulonimbus cloud would drift over.

    ??While the sky has not completely darkened, and the storm has not really come down, I will try again to see if I can get any results.

    Anderson picked up the phone and called his deputy Peter on the distant drilling platform: "Deep one thousand meters before the storm comes. If it hasn't happened yet, let the people on the platform do it."  Get ready, we have to evacuate from here."

    "Ok, no problem."

    Peter is a very good deputy, and he will always carry out his instructions most resolutely. They have wasted more than two weeks in this sea area, and have drilled dozens of holes, but a drop of oil  They haven't even come out yet. If it had been anyone else, they would have been tempted to change places.

    Even his drilling employees are a little dissatisfied, but it is still Peter who can support him so firmly.

    Soon there was a rumble from the distant drilling platform, and Peter and his engine began to move downward.

    Anderson sat in the cockpit of the tugboat not far from the platform, looking at the drilling in the distance.Then he turned his head and looked at the dark cloud on the other side

    After an unknown amount of time, the howling wind could be heard outside. Only then did Anderson notice that the storm clouds that he had thought were still far away had now arrived around them.

    A large tugboat of 50,000 tons is a behemoth at sea, but now on this vast ocean, in the eye of this storm, it is like a toy that can be ravaged by the storm. Somewhere on the hull,  There were even sounds of creaking and creaking as the steel was squeezed and twisted.

    The ship was shaking violently. Anderson stood up and came to the porthole. He took a telescope and looked at the drilling platform in the distance.

    That drilling # platform is semi-submersible, and it is the most mainstream third-generation offshore drilling platform. It has a strong ability to withstand storms, so even though they are shaking badly here, it does not have a big impact on them there.  .

    Although he didn't call, he also saw that the speed of the rotating shaft over there had begun to decrease. It seemed that it was slowing down and preparing to shut down. After all, in such a harsh natural environment, who can safely drill for you#  Well, what if there is an accident?

    Anderson doesn¡¯t feel that their choice is excessive at all.

    But at this moment, even though he was far away, he could still feel the slowly slowing down of the rotating shaft. Suddenly, he stopped suddenly, and then he was so far away that he seemed to be able to feel the ocean from under his feet.  There was a muffled sound, and then their 50,000-ton tugboat was shaken.

    Is it a tsunami?  Anderson's expression changed, but he quickly rejected his judgment while he was still wondering what was going on.

    The captain who was tugging the ship suddenly pointed at the drilling platform in the distance and shouted: "Anderson, look we succeeded"

    Anderson could feel that Captain John¡¯s voice was a little distorted with excitement. He quickly raised his head and looked in the direction of the drilling platform.

    ¡°In the storm, the drill shaft on the drilling platform seemed to be pushed out of the ground by something, and flew out violently, and then a black dragon came out directly from the sea surface and sprayed into the air.  .  .

    Even people who don¡¯t understand oil exploration will know when they see this scene that oil is coming out and they are going to be prosperous.

    Anderson could no longer suppress the joy in his heart, so he took out his phone and called Peter on the drilling platform. Soon, Peter's excited and trembling voice came from the other side of the phone.

    "Anderson, we are developed. This is a high-yield oil well. Judging from the current injection pressure, this oil well has a daily output of 10,000 tons, which is definitely not a problem"

    "I know, I know, Peter, but now you have to listen to me first and get people to seal the oil well quickly. A storm is coming. You have to be careful about lightning"

    After chatting with Peter for a few more words, Anderson could no longer hold back, no matter that it was windy or pouring outside at this time.

    "John, arrange a barge for me. I want to go over there. Just Peter and his group of more than 20 people are there. I'm not very relieved."

    "No, Anderson, are you crazy? It's storming outside right now. If you get on the boat and want to get over, you are looking for death. Do you know that?"

    Captain John immediately rejected Anderson's request. As an experienced captain, he knew what was going on outside. If he let Anderson go out to that platform at this time, he would be committing murder.

    There are so many winds and waves outside. If we send a small boat over, Anderson and the others may die in any minute.

    "No, John, listen to me. I know it's dangerous to do this, but I have to go there. You also know that there are only about twenty people like Peter on the platform, but the oil well produced oil at the wrong time.  It's windy and rainy outside now, but that's not the scariest thing. The most terrifying thing is the lightning. If those lightning hit the oil well, do you know what would happen? The drilling platform would be blown up, and the few of us would be  Months of hard work will all be in vain. When we return to the mainland, we will soon be unemployed and may even go to jail. More importantly, our desire to find a high-yield oil well for the Australian continent will be in vain. So  John, you must send someone to go with me"

    What Anderson said was a bit righteous and sincere. John hesitated a little. He also knew that Anderson was not telling lies. If those lightnings really hit the drilling platform, then their months of hard work would not only be in vain, but also  There will be no good fruit for them to eat.

     The company will not let them go, and neither will the families of so many people who died. At that time, they just needed some people to take responsibility. As for why something like that happened, they didn't care at all.

    But sending someone over at this time is very dangerous!

    "I will go with you."

    A voice came from behind them, and the two turned around and saw that it was the geological expert James.  .  .  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
