Chapter 216 Can't do it

The Norwegian company Hyderu unexpectedly requested an increase in maintenance funds to 5 million US dollars. In terms of their cost, only this price is probably profitable.

The Saudis naturally refused: "Our budget is only 3 million yuan, which cannot be increased."

The Norwegians also said simply, "In this way, we can only quit. Please note that you have a lot of requirements, the condition of 'Sea Drill No. 6' is also very poor, the damage to the platform structure is a serious problem, and so is the erosion... If you still need our services, you can contact us again.

Hedru Company has really left.

Nasr is not surprised. He gently pulled the gold-trimmed cloak and didn't say anything, but his face looked a little anxious. This is why the Saudis in the late 1980s are so anxious. When they sell 500 billion dollars of oil every year, no Saudis will really be anxious because of their work.

Sioux City saw the Norwegians leave, turned around gently and asked, "Mr. Bertos, is Halliburton ready to continue bidding?" If this is a bid."

Belstow rubbed his big red nose twice with his hand and did not answer Su Cheng's words. Instead, he bowed his head and discussed with the engineer.

It can be sthinkable that if they can scoop down this maintenance project with 3 million US dollars, Dahua Industry will be very competitive. The fame of both sides is like that of Audi and Alto. In Saudi Arabia, where you can afford anything, famous brands are very important.

Belstow is even ready, as long as he can earn 1 yuan. He signed this list.

However, the engineer quickly raised his head and said, "We can't do this..."

"How much does it cost?"

The engineer's expression was serious and embarrassed, saying, "It's not a matter of cost. I mean. We may not be able to repair 'Sea Diamond No. 6'.

"How can it be!" This is unacceptable to Berstow. He stared and asked, "How can't we be able to repair the Sea Diamond No. 6, and the Chinese company can?"

"Dahua Industry is China's strongest oil equipment company. If you notice, you may find that not long ago, Halliburton helped them acquire two European shipping companies, both of which have the technical accumulation of offshore drilling platforms. In addition. Our maritime department in Halliburton is now cooperating with Dahua Industry. After a breath, the engineer continued, "Now, if we undertake this project. We must also find a new engineering company, or use a joint venture between Halliburton and Dahua Industrial.

"Harry Burton himself doesn't have the ability to complete it?"

"Yes, the Norwegian said that structural damage is difficult to solve. Maybe it needs to be rebuilt."

"What exactly is the company doing? Give business to the Chinese people?

"They may be considering industrial transfer."

"Transfer to a sunrise industry?"

"Offshore oil equipment still belongs to the shipbuilding industry. Haven't we always respected this industry?"

Berstow sniffed and said, "That's why we saw Chinese people in the Middle East. A group of short-sighted guys!"

The engineer shrugged his shoulders. To show that there is nothing we can do.

Belstow raised his head, not only Halliburton's personnel were listening to them. Not far away. Both Su City and Nasr also looked over.

This forced Berto to the corner, rubbing his nose and speechless.

Finally. Or Nasr couldn't wait and asked, "What's Halliburton's opinion?"

Berstow said unclearly, "We have different opinions on the maintenance of the platform."

Nasr believed it and asked happily, "What's your opinion? We will try our best to answer."

"We need to comprehensively analyze this test report, and maybe we will hire another company, a third-party company, to do the test."

Nasr said doubtfully, "Now it is the third-party testing company that is responsible for testing."

"If so, we can't take over this order for $3 million." Berstow hummed for a long time, but the content was similar to that of Norwegians.

Nasr was disappointed and looked at Sioux City again.

At this time, he suddenly thought, "Mr. Berstow, if I mean, if you are given more options for accessories, you don't need to buy the original level of accessories from the original manufacturer, but use some other accessories, such as accessories made in China, are you willing to accept it?"

The steel structure of the offshore drilling platform is only a matter of material and process. Things such as mud pumps, diesel engines and cranes are purchased from some companies in other countries, and it is impossible to come from the manufacturers of offshore drilling platforms. This is also the place with the highest cost of accessories. Sucheng hopes to reduce costs in this way. At the same time, it introduces Chinese-produced accessories. Nasr indirectly reveals the bottom line of Dahua Industry.

However, although Berstow wanted to accept it, he wisely chose to refuse.

Since they can't repair "Sea Drill No. 6", the problem lies not in the source of the mud pump, but in the whole.

After saying the words to quit, Berstow reluctantly smiled at Su Cheng and left without looking back.

Jensen said hello to Su Cheng, but he didn't stay for a long time.

It didn't take long, and the rest was Dahua Industry.

Su Cheng spread out his hand to Nasr and said with a smile, "It seems that we can only talk about it."

The Saudis nodded dullly. It's not the first time they've hit a wall. The situation of "Sea Diamond No. 6" is fundamentally in the same as their maintenance policy, but they still have to talk about this order. For the bosses of Saudi National Petroleum Corporation, $3 million is not in the eye at all, so there is no room for modification.

After whispering with several people around him, Nasr proposed: "All accessories must be tested by us, and the repair must be completed within half a year, otherwise..."

"We require low liquidated damages." Su City stopped Nasr from continuing and said, "Since the drilling platform cannot be towed back to China, we need free dock rent and necessary equipment... You know, this practice actually increases our costs. And the cost of shipping should not have been included in the maintenance expenses.

Nasr nodded generously, just as he usually did.

On the day of signing the contract, hundreds of Chinese workers were sent from COSCO Shipping and Dahua.

At the same time, the workers who were supposed to operate the second "Hua 106" drilling platform were also sent to Saudi Arabia in advance.

The project, which should have been repaired by about 100 people, was stuffed into three or four hundred people at once and immediately accelerated. In just about a week, the equipment on the platform was dismantled and shipped back to China in the name of scrap steel.

From the perspective of the Saudis, these things are indeed the standard of scrap metal. As a national enterprise that is satisfied with the division of labor in the world, they do not care about the technology contained in the equipment...
