Chapter 174 Mobile Land
Jason smiled and said, "Mr. Simon means that they can help Dahua develop better technology."
Simon realized something and also said, "Our technology is very strong. With Mr. Sucheng's engineers, we can get very high-end products at a relatively low price."
In the eyes of Germans, the Chinese are just good construction workers. Of course, almost all Westerners are very self-respecting.
Sucheng contacted more international people, and he was not busy getting angry. He first asked, "How much can the $6 million oil drilling platform be better than our current oil drilling platform?"
"This... the recovery rate must be higher, but it mainly lies in the comprehensive index. We are at the leading level in design safety, drilling efficiency and automation. When Simon talked about technology, he gradually became excited and said, "For example, drilling efficiency, through precise calculation and accurate construction, in the case of a 3-meter wave, the drilling platform can still be stable, can continue drilling, 4-meter-high wave, and wind speed standby operation... In the case of typhoon, ensure the safety of the platform. No problem."
Su Cheng was a little surprised, but he was just surprised.
Such an indicator is almost weak in the drilling technology of the 21st century. Some of the textbooks he studied are better introduced. Even according to the 1989 standard, the indicators Simon said were only slightly higher, but, as Simon said, the Germans got such indicators at the cost of precision calculation and accurate construction.
In other words. In order to increase the target by about 10%, Fenor Shipping may increase the cost by 20% and the price by 40%.
Su Cheng said secretly: No wonder it's so expensive.
Thinking of this, Su Cheng asked with a smile, "Is the wave of more than 3 meters more frequent in the shallow sea area of Abu Dhabi?"
"Of course, there are many, we expect. Every year, there will be waves of more than 3 meters for more than 6 days, and the wind and wave resistance index can make our drilling longer. Simon looked serious.
"So. Among the waves more than 3 meters high, some waves are more than 4 meters high, so how many are there?
Simon was stunned. The voice lowered and said, "We haven't calculated this."
"It's been more than 30 days. In addition, there are about 10 days left, which is a wave of more than 5 meters. Su Cheng looked at Jason and said, "If it's only at this level, the increased rig efficiency doesn't seem to be much."
Simon looked ugly and defended, "Even so, our drilling rig is still at the leading level."
"There is no doubt. However, let's take a look at our sea test today. Su Cheng smiled and took the lead in getting off the drilling platform.
After the visit, the drilling platform will be started independently by 12 workers. Soon. Su Cheng, Lin Yonggui and Jason all returned to the commuter ship.
Simon was very unhappy when he knew that the business had failed, and he no longer cared about the sea test in front of him.
The Chinese on the ship spoke in a language he was not familiar with. He is not in the mood to listen to the translation.
Lin Yonggui and others are very serious.
Sha Mingyin wore a bright yellow uniform, carefully checked for the last time, and said, "Dahua Industrial No. 005 sit-on-bottom ocean drilling platform is in place accurately. The operation plan is complete, the equipment is in good condition, the team is well prepared, and the drilling conditions are ready. Please give instructions."
Lin Yonggui said solemnly, "Received, I announce that the bottom ocean drilling platform of Dahua Industry No. 005 will be drilled."
Sha Mingyin pressed the button with his thumb. After a short period of silence, the sea was stirred slowly and firmly.
Simon uses a telescope to see the rotating drill pipe and the outer protective layer.
The sea water in front of me is like a bowl of eggs scattered by chopsticks, with green and gray alternately, accompanied by the deafening sound of a rig.
After repeatedly confirming, Sha Mingyin said with the walkie-talkie, "The rig is running normally, the platform is operating steadily, and the rig continues to reach in."
Simon and Jason are very familiar with this and have no special feeling.
However, the masters of the island oilfield have grasped the railing tightly. For them, the creation of a offshore drilling platform is an initiative. With it, there is no need to do any tricks of offshore oil and land mining, but a real march to the ocean.
Su Cheng looked at it quietly without showing the excitement in his heart. He had practiced an expression of honor and disgrace, but in fact, he was also excited.
The rig turned down step by step.
Due to the shallow sea, mud and sand soon turned up. The total amount was not very large, and the rig also maintained the same sound.
For nervous people, this is a long process...
When the sea stopped making mud and sand, the sound of drilling suddenly changed.
This time, even Lin Yonggui held the railing.
Soon there was a sound of sand seal in the walkie-talkie: "Enter the rock layer, the rig runs smoothly."
Several people with white pinched fingers couldn't help laughing.
People from the head office have begun to celebrate.
In the case of testing the drilling platform, it is not important whether to drill oil or not. If the drilling machine can operate stably, it means that the drilling platform is normal.
Lin Yonggui waited for a minute, turned around and said to Su Cheng, "Congratulations to Dahua Laboratory for completing the domestic development and production of the bottom-type marine drilling platform."
"Thank you for the support of Shengli Oilfield Administration." What Su Cheng said was all filmed and recorded by the accompanying reporters.
The drilling rig is still stable.
The communication ship turned to the shore of the meeting.
There, the crowd who received the news had been boiling for a long time.
Dancing red flags and crazy running are good ways to vent energy. Some people rush into the sea and flutter desperately in the cold sea.
Simon looked incomprehensible. These shy and restrained yellow-skinned middle-aged people, like young people, celebrated enthusiastically and unconsciously said, "It's just a shallow sea drilling platform, and it's a small platform for trial operation. If our equipment is used, the effect will only be better..."
Su Cheng, across two positions, heard his words, thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Simon, when I was reading, I never dare to forget what the teacher said."
"What are you talking about?"
Su Cheng stood up straight, raised his voice slightly, and said in Chinese, "The sea drilling platform is the 'flowing land'. Mr. Simon, we will not put our land in the hands of foreigners."
This sentence was so loud that it immediately resonated with all the Chinese people.
Simon waited for 10 seconds before he heard the translation and immediately put away his smile.
Land is always a serious proposition.
Lin Yonggui put his arms around Su Cheng's shoulder, waited for the boat to stop, and walked down with him.
Simon and Jason stayed behind, listening to the cheers of hundreds of people, and their hearts were ready to move.
