Chapter 1705： 2nd period

Yang Cheng went back to the room and took a shower. When he went downstairs to get a glass of juice, he found that his father was still sitting on the sofa looking out the window in a daze.

I couldn't help asking, "Where do you look at the scene? What can I see in the dark sky?"

Yang Sen took back his god, "Oh, it's okay, I'll wait for your mother~"

Yang Cheng only noticed the time. It was almost three hours since he went out and he hasn't returned yet.

But he didn't worry about anything, Andrew was following.

"Don't worry, isn't there Andrew? I'm really worried that I will let Hansen find them?"

"No, I'm not worried~"

Before I finished speaking, I heard the door opening, followed by a series of high heels knocking on the ground. This was definitely not a person's footsteps.

Old John greeted him from the kitchen, "Madam, who is this?"

Sure enough, there were guests, and the father and son looked at each other, knowing that it was Qiu Ying in all likelihood.

How did you bring people home?

After a while, Liu Yun walked in with a charming middle-aged woman, but the other person looked drunk and dim, really embarrassed.

A servant walked over to help and helped Qiu Ying in for Liu Yun. Liu Yun saw the father and son staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes, and said, "You two dead people, you know how to look, and you don't know how to come and help~"

Liu Yun said, rubbing her aching arm. She didn't know how long she hadn't done any physical work, and she felt sore when she moved.

Yang Sen scratched his head and jokingly said, "It's inappropriate for me to help~"

Yang Cheng was embarrassed, "That's not suitable for me~"

"Okay, don't make excuses~" Liu Yun sat down and picked up the water on the table, no matter who owned it, he poured it down, and the talent came back to life.

"I'm exhausted, this dead woman, she has to drink so much wine without listening to her advice. If she drank too much, she wouldn't want to go back to her home. There is no way I can only bring home."

"It's okay, there are so many rooms in the house~" Yang Sen comforted, and motioned to Old John to send people to the guest room, and let the servant take care of him. Then he asked, "How are you talking?"

Liu Yun smiled helplessly, "It's not very good. When I arrived, she was already half drunk. I didn't dare to drink it even if something happened, so I just listened to her complaining about it alone, alas... The woman who has become like this now, it makes people feel distressed~"

After a pause, he scolded fiercely, "It's all to blame on Lao Tan. If he doesn't have the talent to do business, he must teach well. You have to learn to do business. This is good. Fortunately, there are no children, or the whole family will be killed by him~"

Yang Cheng went to the kitchen to pour two glasses of orange juice back, and stuffed one of them into his mother's hand, "Drink some orange juice to reduce anger~"

"Don't drink~ I get fat after drinking~"

Yes, when he heard that his mother was still thinking about managing his figure, Yang Cheng knew that the matter was not serious, and he could go back to the room and sleep at ease.

Turning around and about to leave, my mother stopped, "Wait, why are you going? Haven't the matter been finished yet?"

Yang Cheng sat back in tears, "What does it have to do with me, I can't help~"

"If you can't help, you can come up with an idea. When you were a child, Aunt Qiu even hugged you. Can't you just watch her go on like this?"

Speechless, really speechless, when did it become a kindness to be hugged when you were a child?

"Mom, it's reasonable. It's not that I don't want to. It's that I really can't help. I can't let me pay for the supplement to his family, right?"

"Of course not. You agree and I don't agree. You have to think of a way to get the best of both worlds, which will not harm the interests of our family, but also help you Aunt Qiu through the difficulties~"

Women are unreasonable regardless of age!

Yang Cheng said aggrieved: I am too difficult~

How can there be so many ways to get the best of both worlds? Besides, he doesn't know the specific situation of the project now, where is the target plot? How many holes did you drill? How much did you invest? What are the results of the survey? He doesn't know anything!

But Liu Yun was prepared and chuckled, "The oil field invested by Lao Tan is in the Permian Basin."

"what?"

"Permian?"

Yang Sen and Yang Cheng, father and son, cried out at the same time.

There is such an oil field in the world today. It not only makes the recovery of international oil prices weak, makes Saudi Arabia sleepless, makes country Z secretly envy, and makes polar bears so insomnia. If all are developed, it is a little exaggerated to say that the years of all oil fields in country Z The total output may be no match for it.

It may even detonate a new energy revolution on its own, leading to changes in the global ZZ economic structure. It is the world's most sky-defying oil field today, the American version of the "Changqing Oil Field"-the Permian Basin.

Americans once said that the attack on Iraq was not for oil, and the source of its confidence was the Permian oil fields.

It is also because of the existence of the Permian that has become an excuse for the US military to use weapons of mass destruction.

If oil is a "weapon", then the Permian oil fields can definitely be called "nuclear weapons."

"What are you two doing? Such a big reaction? Isn't it a Permian?" Liu Yun was taken aback.

Yang Sen couldn't hold his face, he was a bit gagged just now, and glared at Yang Cheng, as if he was to blame for this.

Yang Cheng's grievance: Why is it always me who is injured?

"You said that Lao Tan's optimistic plot was in the Permian? It hasn't produced oil yet?" Yang Sen was still in that unbelievable tone.

However, it is understandable that there was no oil in the Permian. What a bad fate!

Liu Yun really knows very little about the energy field. She knows the Permian oil field because it is so famous, but she doesn't know the specifics. For example, why is it called the Permian? Why is it so famous?

"Is it weird?"

Yang Cheng felt thirsty and took a sip of orange juice. "To be honest, in the Permian it is more surprising that no oil was produced than oil."

Liu Yun was confused, "What are you talking about, why can't I understand?"

咚咚咚~ Knock on the blackboard, here is the point of knowledge-if you have not studied geology, you will definitely find the name "Permian" unfamiliar and awkward, "Permian", English called Permian, is a major in geology The term refers specifically to a geological period. Generally speaking, it refers specifically to the period between 250 and 299 million years ago, which is called the Permian.

At the end of the Permian, a terrible biological extinction event occurred. More than 90% of marine life suffered extinction. As for why these organisms became extinct, there are different opinions. Some people say it is because of the drop in sea level, and some people say it is because of planet collision. Earth.

Of course, this is not important. No one will mourn for animals that have died, and no one will feel sorry. But after they die, they generate hydrocarbons. After 200 million years of vicissitudes of life, they become oil and natural gas, which is the energy of 200 million years later. (Oil) source (price) revolution (big) life (fall) has made a huge contribution.

The Permian is in the western part of Texas and the southeastern part of New Mexico in the United States. It is a large sedimentary basin. The rock deposits formed in the Permian period in this basin are one of the thickest Permian deposits in the world. One, so this basin is called the "Permian Basin".

The currently proven Permian basin covers a total area of ​​about 190,000 square kilometers, which is equivalent to the size of a state. Unfortunately, such a large piece of land cannot accommodate people, at least it cannot carry the population of a large city, because the Permian Basin The landform is extremely desolate, a scene of Gobi and desert. However, there are amazing oil and gas resources buried underground.

The uniqueness of this basin is that its oil production history has been nearly a hundred years, but this oil field has not dried up, but has experienced a production explosion in recent years. Even the recent oil price explosion has not been able to withstand the second. The output of the Permian oil field.

The amazing resistance of this oil field to low oil prices has exceeded everyone's expectations. Not only the oil industry, but the future of the world's ZZ economic structure may change due to it.

And what gave the Permian Basin a second spring is exactly one of the most discussed keywords in the Yang family in recent days-shale oil.

The Permian has existed for more than 200 million years, but the real discovery of oil was only 100 years ago, which opened the prelude to the oil boom in the Permian Basin.

In the 1970s, oil production in the Permian Basin reached its peak, reaching 740 million barrels a year, which is almost twice the output of the DQ oilfield at its peak. The Permian Basin has produced more than 29 billion barrels of oil so far. , 75 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.

However, since the 1970s, U.S. oil production peaked and then declined year by year, and the Permian Basin was not immune.

At the same time, the Middle East showed the characteristics of a local oil tyrant and began to blow out oil. As a result, the world's oil production center shifted from the Americas to the Middle East. Contradictions of interests occurred and the relationship between Western countries and the Middle East became more and more complicated.

Before the decline of the Permian Basin, there was a popular saying: God, give me another big oil field.

But with the sharp decline in production, everyone in the small city that was raised by oil is saying: God, give me another big oil field, this time I promise that there will be no chaos.

Maybe God really heard the prayers of the locals The prayers of people's hearts and minds were fulfilled. An oil field that was supposed to be aging, declining production, and increasing water content suddenly increased production.

In 2005, because of the shale revolution, the US oil industry ushered in its second spring, and the Permian Basin caught up with the spring breeze. Oil production quickly returned to its peak level in the 1970s.

However, people later discovered that the influence brought by the Permian Basin was far more than the recovery of production. Whether the international oil price fell back to 30 US dollars per barrel or advanced to 70 US dollars per barrel, American shale oil dared not attack the Middle East. It can be said that the eyes of the whole world are focused on the Permian Basin, and this may become the fuse of the next oil war.

No wonder Lao Tan, who has always been indifferent to fame and fortune, was so impulsive and plunged into it. It was the Permian, a place where oil can be produced by sticking a pole. Facts have proved that human nature is evil. In the face of huge interests, a always calm university professor Can't bear it, too, who doesn't want to live a better life?

But the sky is not as good as the people. Whoever thinks of a place where oil can be produced by farting, and even a drop of oil is not squeezed out. There is no strong foundation and failure is inevitable.
