    【Hot attention of Chemical Machinery Equipment Network ] Oil and gas exploration refers to geological survey, geophysical exploration, drilling activities and other related activities to identify exploration areas or prove oil and gas reserves.
    Recently, the editor learned that my country has once again explored large-scale oil and gas in the Bohai Sea.

    Bohai gets another large-scale oil and gas

    On February 22, CNOOC announced that my country’s Bohai Sea has made another large-scale oil and gas discovery-the Bozhong 13-2 oil and gas field, with proven geological reserves of 100 million tons of oil and gas equivalent, further consolidating the foundation of my country’s offshore oil and gas resources and stabilizing the production of offshore oil and gas fields.
    It is of great significance to increase production and ensure national energy security.

     

    The Bohai Sea has again obtained large-scale oil and gas.
    It is reported that the Bozhong 13-2 oil and gas field discovered this time is located in the central waters of the Bohai Sea, about 140 kilometers away from Tianjin, with an average water depth of about 23.
    2 meters.
    After testing, the well has an average daily output of about 300 tons of crude oil and about 150,000 cubic meters of natural gas.

     

      In addition, we must know that the formation and burial of oil and gas resources will affect the chemical characteristics of surrounding rocks, soil, water and other natural materials.
    Through the analysis of the abundance, type, nature, structure and other characteristics of the sample organic matter through the petroleum geochemical exploration technology, the oil-generating layer can be judged.
    Combining petroleum geology and geophysics can predict the amount of oil and gas resources and the favorable areas for further exploration, thereby increasing the exploration The success rate can avoid blind exploration and increase the cost.
    And in offshore oil and gas exploration,The instrumentation output can be a lot.

     
    Instrumentation
      Offshore oil and gas exploration instruments and equipment are indispensable
     

      *, the exploration of marine oil and gas resources not only requires marine geological survey technologies such as marine positioning, sounding, and shallow formation profile measurement, and marine geophysical exploration technologies such as marine seismic, marine gravity, and marine magnetic surveys, but also requires subsea sampling analysis, gas chromatography analysis, Marine petroleum geochemical exploration technologies such as sampling and analysis of dissolved hydrocarbons in seawater and microbial geochemical analysis.

     

      According to the characteristics of "alteration halo" where hydrocarbons diffuse above most oil and gas reservoirs, chemical methods are used to find such anomalous areas to discover oil and gas fields, which is oil and gas geochemical exploration.
    There are many types of oil and gas geochemical exploration methods.
    Commonly used are soil hydrocarbon gas measurement, soil sulfate method, stable carbon isotope method, mercury and iodine measurement method, etc.
    , as well as groundwater chemical method and underground geochemical exploration method.
    These chemical exploration techniques areAnalytical instruments are used in the field.

     
    Analytical Instruments
      It is reported that the commonly used techniques in petroleum geochemistry include the use of chromatography to analyze the distribution of alkanes, the use of infrared spectroscopy to analyze the properties of various groups of aromatic hydrocarbons and asphalt, the use of chromatography-mass spectrometry to analyze cyclic compounds above C27, and the use of isotope mass spectrometry.
    Stable isotopes of carbon, hydrogen, sulfur, etc.

     

      In addition, it is necessary to analyze and test items such as sediment fluorescence, interstitial water fluorescence, pyro-release mercury, carbonate content, and particle size of sediment samples.
    In addition to various chromatographic, mass spectrometry, and spectroscopic instruments, fluorescence microscopes, X-ray diffractometers, and differential thermal analyzers are also commonly used instruments in petroleum geochemical exploration.
    For oil and gas exploration, there are more instruments and meters to help, let's take a look!

      Exploring oil and gas surveying instruments and meters to help

      In recent years, as my country's demand for crude oil consumption has soared, my country has become the world's largest importer of crude oil and natural gas, and its dependence on foreign oil and gas has also been increasing year by year.
    In fact, my country's oil and gas resources are relatively rich, but the degree of provenance is not high.
    At present, my country's proven oil rate is 31% and natural gas is 16%.
    The market prospect is quite broad.

     

      The exploration of oil and gas requires corresponding instruments and equipment, especially surveying instruments, such as XRF analyzers, X-ray fluorescence spectrometers, gas chromatography analysis instruments, and logging instruments.
    As the demand for oil and gas exploration increases, it will also bring new market demand for related surveying instruments.
    The XRF analyzer can analyze a variety of common sample types in upstream oil and gas exploration and production industries, including drilling cuttings, cores, surface outcrops and piston columnar core deposits used for hydrocarbon exploration.

     

      In addition, with the increase in oil and gas production and the continuous development of its downstream industries and related research, the demand for related instruments and meters will also continue to increase, such as oil analyzers, flow meters, valves, etc.
    , and the overall instrument and meter market for oil and gas applications will achieve great growth of.

     

      Later, the editor wants to say that oil is the main resource of modern industry and has a pivotal position in the economy.
    my country's oil resources are relatively poor, and its dependence on foreign resources in the energy sector is relatively high, so that my country is facing a relatively large oil security problem.
    With the rapid development of my country’s economy, the consumption of oil is also increasing.
    In order to ensure energy supply, it is imperative to increase domestic oil and gas exploration efforts.
    With the strengthening of the oil and gas exploration market, Relevant instruments and meters are ushering in new demands, and relevant companies can seize this development opportunity.
