Homo sapiens.

Chapter 197 Thief
Siam is vigorously engaging in construction and developing the automobile industry.

As for Hongshawadi, they were not idle either.

Just at the beginning of this year, the Development Group secretly did a big thing in Kachin State in the north of Hongshawady.

The northwestern border of Kachin State is a relatively gentle mountain range, and on the other side of the mountain is the state of Assam in Tianzhu.

And in the South Cloud Valley near the border, the residents here have been emptied, and all of them have been relocated to cities that are more suitable for living.

After being emptied, the Nanyun Valley was officially listed as a nature reserve on Hongshawadi's official website.

Judging from satellite images, it has indeed become a deserted area.

But in fact, the development group secretly built a large underground base in this valley through the cover of the green umbrella system and underground facilities.

The western edge of the base is basically close to the border, less than one kilometer away from the border.

The reason why they are built so close together is to steal things.

The management of the development group combined various technologies of the current Homo sapiens company and came up with an ingenious plan.

Because they found that the company's excavation technology is very advanced, and the excavation cost is very low. Even if they are excavating underground, as long as they are well controlled, there will not even be large vibrations and obvious movements.

In this way, they stared at the things in other people's homes.

Mang Wenxing, who proposed this plan, personally organized a special project team called "Project Straw" to make a plan specifically for stealing things.

After Mang Wenxing observed the surrounding neighbors, he first ruled out the neighbors in the north who couldn't be offended, then Siam, who had become his own, and Lancang, who was too poor.

In the end, he could only turn his attention to Tianzhu in the west.

Considering that the seaside of Rakhine State is not easy to keep secret, he set his target on Assam State on the northwest border, which happened to have what he wanted opposite.

There is a long and narrow river valley plain in Assam. In this river valley plain, there are not a few natural gas and oil.

Among them, the oil field closest to the Nanyun Valley is the Digboy oil field in Assam. The distance between the two sides is only 47 kilometers, and the underground oil and gas layers are even closer.

According to the geological survey data of Mang Wenxing's survey, the oil reservoir in the Digboy Oilfield is less than 24 kilometers away from the Nanyun River Valley.

Therefore, he pushed the company to build the Nanyun River Valley Base.

After building part of the infrastructure and underground base, a well with a depth of 1000 meters was drilled in the base, and then excavated from the bottom of the well horizontally to the bottom of the Digboy Oilfield.

This technology of horizontal excavation deep underground is currently mastered by Homo sapiens.

The key point of its technology is to carry corrosion bacteria into deep underground wells through special parasites, and then use pheromone regulation to directional corrode rock formations.

In order to increase the excavation speed, a miniature submersible is usually used. Through the miniature thimble equipment equipped with the submersible, a needle made of hard alloy is injected into the rock formation, which can penetrate tens of meters deep at one time.

Corrosion bacteria can then be injected into the pores formed by the penetration to accelerate corrosion.

At the same time, genetically modified polyps can also be used to build a special anti-corrosion coral layer in the underground shaft.

The silt after corrosion is directly washed to the ground through fluid boiling.

The underground tunnel advances at a speed of 300 meters per day, and the Digboy Oilfield is rapidly approaching.

After 103 days of secret excavation, the tunnel finally broke through the oil-bearing layer of the Digboy oil field, which was then acquired by the development group.

Since the tunnel was excavated obliquely upward from the bottom of the Nanyun River Valley, there was just a drop between the two places.

The oil-bearing layer in the Digboy Oilfield is at a depth of 730-860 meters, but the bottom of the deep well in Nanyun River Valley is at 1000 meters, so the oil on the opposite side will automatically flow to this side.

When the deep well was dug, a large space was left at the bottom.

Now start to find that the oil on the opposite side is flowing.

Mang Wenxing came to the scene in person: "How much oil can I get?"

"The daily production is about 2600 barrels of crude oil." The base chief replied with a smile.

"This amount is not enough. I remember that the reserves of this oil field are 3200 million tons?"

The head of the base nodded: "Yes, the proven reserves are 3200 million tons, and there are hundreds of millions of tons of oil sand and oil shale at the bottom."

Mang Wenxing smiled sinisterly: "Then increase the extraction, we have to compete with the Tianzhu people for time, as long as we pump out the oil, they will only be able to temporarily seal up this oil field."

The base director thought for a while: "If the number of vacuum pumps and oil extraction pipelines is increased, it is estimated that it can be increased to the limit of 8 barrels per day."

"Just follow the limit. By the way, how much can the supporting oil pipeline transport per day?"

The head of the base replied like a few treasures: "The daily limit is 10 barrels, and the base's strategic reserve can store 100 million barrels."

"Expand the reserves, but don't build them together, try to build a 500 million barrel oil reserve here."

"I'll write a plan."

Mang Wenxing listened to the humming in the pipeline, like the low hum of the tide, like the symphony in the golden hall of Vienna.

Hongshawadi doesn't have much oil and gas, so he tries to "borrow" from his neighbors.

Did he know that the series of oil and gas fields in the valley plains of Assam have at least 2 million tons of oil and hundreds of billions of cubic meters of natural gas.

In addition, there are hundreds of millions of tons of coal, billions of tons of oil sands and oil shale.

If these energies can be "borrowed", then the energy potential of Hongshawadi will be further enhanced.

Just when the Nanyun base secretly sucked the oil from the Digboy oil field.

The oil well manager of Tianzhu Petroleum Company also found that the oil production of several oil wells was declining rapidly.

Sandy, the oilfield manager, was in the office. After hearing the report from his subordinates, his expression was a bit ugly. He asked with a headache:

"Engineer Murray, can remedial measures be taken to bring the well back to production?"

"If the company can afford the production cost of $40 per barrel, it can use steam flooding technology to exploit the heavy oil at the bottom." Murray looked at you.

"$40 is too high." Sandy looked troubled.

In fact, they were not surprised by the decline in oil well production capacity. After all, Tianzhu's oil consumption has been rising year by year in recent years, and its local oil fields have been squeezed to the limit.

So they didn't suspect that the oil had flowed away by itself.

That's another reason Bowen is targeting Assam's oil fields, which are on the brink of depletion.

When the time comes, the oil fields will be exhausted one after another, and the Tianzhu people will only think that they have exhausted the oil fields.

As for oil sands and shale oil, it is estimated that the Tianzhu people currently do not have the technology and capital to exploit them.

You must know that the place with the largest reserves of oil sands and shale oil in the world is not America, but America's younger brother, Maple Leaf Country, which is estimated to be converted into oil, with a scale of trillions of tons.

But its mining cost is also very touching.

Even European and American oil companies that have been playing with shale oil and oil sands feel that these two types of oil reservoirs are difficult to exploit and the cost is unacceptable.

In a place without foundation like Tianzhu, the cost of mining is estimated to be skyrocketing, so it is better to import oil from my good friend Lucia.

Therefore, Mang Wenxing has already predicted the other party's reaction. Once the oil in Assam is exhausted, the oil fields in this area will definitely be sealed up one after another.

At that time, he can help Tianzhu exploit oil sands and shale oil while the other party is closing the well.

However, the series of oil fields in Assam, due to the different levels of strata and the gradual extension of the distance, need to further carefully plan a safe and concealed route.
