On this artificial island, more than a dozen drilling derricks have been set up, and workers in red overalls of PetroChina are working nervously. Along the road from the artificial island to Tang Haixian, dozens of kilometers of yellow crude oil pipelines have been partially laid, and natural gas pipelines are expected to be completed.
The area where the artificial island is located is also an alternative to China's strategic oil reserve base. Nanpu Oilfield is a beach oilfield with concentrated reserves, high output and easy construction and exploitation. According to the current oil production of China Oilfield, the recoverable capacity of one billion tons is estimated to reach 500 million tons, and comprehensive development can be completed in seven to eight years. Nanpu Oilfield is located in shallow water, which is safer than East China Sea oil and gas fields. Instead of spending a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to artificially establish a strategic oil reserve base, China might as well temporarily seal up most of Nanbao Oilfield to save storage costs. However, Wang Zhen, Dean of Business School of Youshi University in China, believes that the timing of oil field exploitation should also consider the market demand. The east side of the artificial island is the main part of Caofeidian Industrial Zone. Similar to Nanbao Oilfield, Caofeidian has changed from a small sand island of four square kilometers to a big island of more than forty square kilometers by blowing sand and filling the sea. According to the planning of Tangshan Municipal Government, the area of Caofeidian will double in 2008 and expand to 380 square kilometers by 2030. "Building a national commercial energy reserve regulation center", this placard stands on one side of Caofeidian main road.
In fact, in the long-term planning of Caofeidian Industrial Zone jointly produced by China Urban Planning and Design Institute and Caofeidian Planning and Development Bureau, some areas where oil fields are currently located are located in the reserved land of the port. The distribution area of large oil fields partially overlaps with Caofeidian Industrial Zone, and the exploitation plan will be carried out simultaneously with Caofeidian Industrial Zone. In order to achieve complementary advantages. Caofeidian Industrial Zone has been adjusted for oil fields, and the planned location of petrochemical and chemical industrial zones has been interchanged with the original processing industrial zones, from the location closer to the sea on the east side of the development zone to the location adjacent to oil fields and land on the west side. The project under construction of PetroChina in Caofeidian is a large LNG receiving station, and two 300,000-ton crude oil terminals are also planned.
Caofeidian is the only natural port site along the Bohai Sea where a 300,000-ton large berth can be built without the need to excavate the waterway and harbor basin. Therefore, in the planning drawing, in addition to the four crude oil terminals under construction, the ore terminal and the coal terminal are also the key points of construction. At present, Shougang's first 250,000-ton ore terminal has been put into operation. In the planning of Caofeidian, Shougang land is located in the southwest, accounting for about half of Caofeidian's existing area. Around the production scale of Shougang Caofeidian New Plant Phase I with an annual output of 9.89 million tons of iron, 9.7 million tons of steel and 9.05 million tons of steel, China No.22 Metallurgical Company has planned to establish a steel structure base with an annual output of 654.38+10,000 tons in Caofeidian. Caofeidian has reserved an equipment manufacturing coastline in the northeast corner of the industrial zone to produce "Ansat" series helicopters.
The appearance of Nanbao Oilfield and the large-scale development of Caofeidian have changed the vicinity of Caofeidian. House price is an obvious indicator. This change is more obvious in Bobei village, which is closest to the oil field. There are only over 30 families left here, and it is only a matter of time before they move out. The government will have a proper resettlement plan for these fishermen in the development zone. Before the fishermen left, a group of new residents would flood in. Vietnam, the Philippines and Malaysia have carried out land reclamation and airport construction in the occupied Nansha Islands for decades. From the end of 20 13 to June of 20 15, China successively dredged sand on several reefs in Nansha (Chigua Reef should be the first to be reclaimed). In addition to improving garrison conditions and better safeguarding rights, it is more to serve civil affairs and international public welfare responsibilities as a big country, such as maritime search and rescue and navigation safety.
201May 16 A spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China said that the "land reclamation project for some islands and reefs in Nansha" will be completed soon. On June 30, it was said that it had been completed, and then it entered the construction of the national functional zone. The so-called "China reclaimed land from some islands and reefs in Nansha", and the old 7 reefs are Chigua Reef (20 13 winter -20 14 summer) and Nanxun Reef (20 13 winter-14 year/kloc). The Anda Reef stationed in China of Hua (about 20 14 to about 20 15), Yongshu Reef (about 20 14 to about 20 15) and Qibi Reef (about 20 15) has not been dredged. The rapid progress and great achievements of Nansha reclamation have benefited from the strong development of China's construction industry. China's construction industry ranks first in Asia, among which the Celestial Whale is the most prominent among all engineering ships. From September, 20 13 to June, 20 14, "Sky Whale" shuttled between Nanshahua, Yongshu Reef, Chigua Reef, Dongmen Reef and Nanxun Reef for many times, and the efficiency was improved through rotation operation, with the cumulative number of days reaching 193 days. Among them, 20 13, 12 and 20 14 are the peak periods for the operation of "Tian Whale" in Nansha. He traveled between five reefs and worked 174 days. According to the calculation of 4,500 cubic meters of sea reclamation and sand production per hour, the "Sky Whale" dredged and dredged more than 65,438 places in five islands and reefs in Nansha. The Celestial Whale is considered as an artifact of island-building.
