Sumei Energy Dialogue

Wen / He Zeping

Under the United States, the situation in Europe and Russia is tense. Energy has become the biggest barrier to Russia's mediation. However, energy sources between the United States and the former Soviet Union are not only opposite, but also cooperation. In 1976, in order to deal with huge investment in the industrial infrastructure construction of the New Oilfield of Siciberia, the actual investment after the Soviet Union entered the "stagnation period" was decreasing. Under this condition, the leaders of the Soviet Ministry of Petroleum Industry once again decided to increase the efficiency of existing production equipment and study the advanced experience of foreign oil mining countries. The preferred place is the United States.

Shared information

"In order to maintain the existing level of oil mining, new equipment with oil mining must be introduced by not less than 90 million tons each year. Because a large number of oil fields are entering the period of mining." In 1976, the Minister of Oil Industry of the Soviet Union Walianjing Shasha Sausa Sand Shen said at the Moscow Industry Leadership Meeting. At that time, the US oil mining volume was 461 billion tons, which was one of the world's oil industry leaders. In December, on the basis of the joint chairman of the Soviet -American Energy Cooperation Committee, the two sides established the oil industry science and technology cooperation working group. According to the agreement between the two parties, from October 26th to November 3rd, 1977, the first meeting of the working group was held in the United States.

On the first day of the talks, the Sumei and American parties reached many agenda: sharing information, set up expert groups, discussed scientific and technological issues that both parties were interested in, exchanged future scientific and technological cooperation intentions, and the time and time and time and time and time of the Su -American working group talks. Place.

American scientists have notified a series of news in the field of oil and global chemistry, including the best oil layer pressure tolerance and increased crude oil output research, new technologies for mining of heavy oil and asphalt crude oil ore, and new methods for determining the main materialization characteristics of oil. Soviet experts also submitted a brief report on the development of the Soviet oil industry to the United States counterparts, as well as research results in increasing crude oil collection and other aspects.

After some enthusiastic discussions, the two sides unanimously in favor of the cooperation in the field of Sumei Petroleum Express to set up two expert groups in five aspects: global chemical exploration, crude oil characteristics, water injection and air to maintain oil layer pressure technology, and increase new technologies for crude oil collection. The hydrocarbon compound technology is extracted by heavy oil and asphalt sandstone ore.

Special discussion

On October 26, 1977, it was a very fruitful day for Sumei experts. The two sides started a high -level scientific discussion on the issue of interest. The topics of the discussion include: "The Rock Gerygate Earth's Earth Earth Earth -Extracting Methods of Oil and Gas Field Exploration", "Research on the Problem of Asphalt Sandstone at this stage", "Evaluation of Special Methods of Crude Oil Express", "Soviet Scholars on Exploration of Oil and Gas Field Earth Chemistry Methods", "Scientific Research Work and its progress and their own progress. "Prospects", "The status and problems of global chemical methods in the process of proven oil content" "The status and principles and effects of the Soviet oil field adopt water -injection -in -voltage method" "method of improving crude oil output" and so on. These issues have aroused great attention from both parties.

The working day schedule of the Soviet -American Expert Group is very dense, so that some of the content in the preparation of the Soviet experts to prepare for the report is too late to read it at the meeting, and they have to give these materials to the United States to follow up research. The contents of these less than readings include: "Oilfield adopts the plan and results of the system of water injection and pressure -controlling the system (take the Aksh area as an example)", "the research status of water -injection steam driving oil", "water injection and fire burning oil layer method", etc.

At the next group meeting, the Soviet Union will conduct discussions and submit a detailed work plan for both sides: joint seminars, information and sample exchange, arrange scientists and engineers for three weeks of interoperability in the laboratory. During the meeting, the head of the Soviet delegation Gejeeli Wahotov invited American experts to participate in the "Geochemical Exploration" and "Petroleum Main Nature" international seminar set by the Soviet Union in the spring of 1978.

On the second day of work, it became a famous incident in the history of Sumei scientific exchanges. Participants in the meeting agreed that the opportunity to arrange similar conferences should be greatly increased. The Soviet Union once again suggested that the international seminar arranged at the end of next year is: "The stress of oil layer, increased crude oil production with heavy oil and asphalt oil fields." This proposal was fully agreed by American experts.

The Soviet delegation continued to propose to conduct a joint research on the oxidation process of crude oil at 100 ° C to 200 ° C as one of the ways to increase crude oil output. They believe that the two parties should start from the perspective of the minimum technical perspective of the topic. U.S. scientists put forward some suggestions for the method of accurately determining the residual oil content in the joint cooperation project.

The two -day meeting achieved a lot of results. The working group of the Soviet Union completed the list of projects and formulation of the energy cooperation, and formed a document to submit a document to the leaders of the joint committee of the Su -Mei cooperation parties. The two parties agreed that the project implementation opinions submitted to the report in the report were completely feasible after being recognized by the Common Committee of the Soviet Union Cooperation and the competent government department of both sides.

Interview

After the Washington Conference, the biggest wish of the Soviet delegation was to visit some large oil companies in the United States. Soviet scientists first visited the scientific laboratory of Narco Chemical Company in Schogade City, Texas, and expressed their satisfaction with American counterparts. Then they visited the Wilmington Oilfield in California according to the schedule. Together with the experts of the US Department of Energy, together with the visitors, a harsh sodium injection plan was completed in the sunset oil field. Accompanied by the experts of the US Department of Energy, the visitors carried out steam injecting the "oil layer" together.

The visit to the US Energy Research Center of Oklahoma was deeply impressed by the members of the Soviet delegation, and a plan to inject the "oil layer" into the "oil layer" of micro -glue granules and polymers was implemented. After that, they drove to the oil fields of Kavani Petroleum in Oklahoma, and the US Department of Energy and visitors discussed the "transformation plan" of the oil field injecting water in the oilfield. They then visited the Oklahoma B & H Petroleum Corporation, and implemented a plan to inject the "oil layer" into the "oil layer" of micron particles and polymers. While completing the business visit, Professor Gejeli Washitov, the head of the Soviet delegation, praised the high -efficiency work and thoughtful arrangements of the US Department of Energy and the Oilfield. In the subject, American oil experts fully demonstrated their excellent professional knowledge and talents.

The Soviet -American Cooperation Working Group also made arrangements for the next activity to make arrangements through the Foreign Affairs Bureau of the Ministry of Oil Industry and the US Department of Energy. The scientific and technological cooperation between the two sides in the field of oil industry is the beginning of the results of the results of the Soviet Union and the American oil scientist. It is one of the first meetings of the Soviet -American Cooperation Working Group. Other other agreements are also conducting joint research on the projects that improve the production of crude oil on the oil fields of complex geological conditions.

In December 1979, the Soviet Union's military operations in Afghanistan led the US government for a long time, holding a negative attitude towards many areas, including the scope of oil industry science and technology cooperation. Due to the extreme deterioration of political relations between the Soviet Union and the United States, the more extensive scientific and technological collaboration plans scheduled by the Soviet Union and the United States have not been realized as a whole.
