The 223 old oil wells in the Bibi-Heybat oil field are distributed in an area of about five square kilometers, with an average of nearly 50 oil wells per square kilometer. This density is not small, but a century ago, this density of oil wells was commonplace.
At that time, oil extraction technology was still very backward and the diameter of the oil pipes was relatively small, so it was very common to increase the number of oil wells in exchange for oil production.
In modern times, there are rarely such high density of oil wells, especially in those super giant oil fields. Any well drilled can be a 10,000-ton self-flowing well, and there is no need to drill more wells to increase oil production.
The entire Bibi-Heybat oilfield covers an area of more than 20 square kilometers, and the more than 200 old oil wells belonging to Lukoil occupy about a quarter of the entire Bibi-Heybat oilfield. However, these more than 200 old oil wells are relatively concentrated, and it is obvious that they share one or more oil and gas reservoirs.
Among the more than 200 old oil wells, there are still 17 that are still producing oil, but the total daily output of these 17 wells is less than 100 barrels, and they are already on the verge of being sealed.
The 17 oil wells that are still producing oil are evenly distributed, almost evenly distributed in the five square kilometers of the oil field. This is good news for Yang Jing. At least he doesn't have to find a lot of tools to access the heavy oil in the oil and gas reservoir below like he did in Beaumont.
These oil wells that are still producing oil allow Yang Jing to easily access the extracted crude oil through the oil outlet valves. Then he only needs to think about it to "see" the condition of the oil reservoir below.
However, this kind of work cannot be done in broad daylight, so Yang Jing decided to act alone in the middle of the night.
Chris and the other four, who were the earliest bodyguards to follow Yang Jing, had experienced the boss working in the middle of the night several times, so they were used to it. They skillfully instructed Morris and the other eight that they must be on guard outside and must not disturb the boss when he was working.
Morris and his team had never experienced this before, so they could only follow Chris's instructions and stand guard from a distance. Of course, Chris and his team also stood guard at a distance of several hundred meters from Yang Jing.
Yang Jing turned on the oil outlet valve, and a small stream of warm crude oil spurted out from the valve, but the force was not strong. Yang Jing only needed to touch the crude oil with his left hand, and the next moment, the situation of the oil reservoir below appeared in Yang Jing's mind.
After a while, Yang Jing shook his head slightly and gave up on this old oil well.
This old oil well and dozens of other old oil wells share the oil reservoir below, but the oil reservoir is not large, with a reserve of about 200 million barrels.
Perhaps because his mentality had improved a lot, Yang Jing was really not interested in this kind of oil reservoir with a reserve of only 200 million barrels. Of the 200 million barrels of reserves, about 65 million barrels had been mined. If the remaining heavy oil was "purified" by absorbing the precious gas, at most 65 million barrels of light oil could be produced, which was less than 10 million tons.
It's boring. There's not enough meat. I'm not interested.
The oil reservoir beneath this old oil well does not meet the requirements, so let's change it.
After contacting Chris and others through the walkie-talkie, Yang Jing got in the car and drove to the second old oil well that was still producing oil.
After a whole night of tossing and turning, the result left Yang Jing speechless.
The Bibi-Heybat oil field is a large oil field with reserves of up to 3.7 billion barrels, but after a night of survey, Yang Jing found that the Bibi-Heybat oil field was too "fragmented".
Logically speaking, for a large oil field with reserves exceeding 500 million tons and recoverable reserves exceeding 100 million tons, and with such a concentrated area, the underground oil reservoir should be very large. Under normal circumstances, there would be at most two or three oil reservoirs under the ground of these 20 square kilometers, or even just one oil reservoir would not be uncommon.
But, beneath this land, small oil reservoirs are crowded together like grapes, forming such a large oil field.
The Holy Ring can "purify" the remaining thick oil by absorbing the precious energy contained in the thick oil, but there is a prerequisite, that is, it can only purify the thick oil in one oil reservoir at a time.
Although if Yang Jing worked harder, he could purify all the thick oil in the underground "grape" oil reservoirs, but if he really did that, the secret of the holy ring would definitely not be kept!
Therefore, even if Yang Jing wants to "purify" a certain oil reservoir, this oil reservoir must meet the conditions for being "purified", that is, it must be large enough and contain enough remaining heavy oil, so that it is worth Yang Jing's effort.
But it is obvious that these "grape" oil reservoirs under the Bibi-Heybat oil field do not meet Yang Jing's requirements.
"Boss, didn't you find any new oil reservoirs?" Chris was very familiar with his boss. Seeing that his boss's face didn't look good, he guessed that his boss's work didn't seem to be going well that night.
Yang Jing nodded. "When I was observing from the top of the TV tower yesterday, I felt that the situation here was not good. I searched all night last night and found no new oil reservoirs. Let's go back and rest. We will go to the Surakhany Oilfield tonight."
Clark, who was standing by, heard this and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Boss, if no new oil reservoir is found here, then more than 30 million of the 110 million dollars that Boss Guo spent will be wasted?"
