In the past ten years, China has newly discovered 23 large oilfields of 100 million tons and 28 large atmospheric fields of 100 billion square meters

On September 19, the Central Propaganda Department held a series of theme press conferences on "China's Ten Years", and Yu Haifeng, director of the Department of Geological Exploration and Management of the Ministry of Natural Resources, said at the meeting that 23 large oilfields of 100 million tons and 28 100 billion square meters of atmospheric fields were newly discovered in China's oil and natural gas, and 32 new resource bases
were formed for non-oil and gas minerals.

Yu Haifeng said, "In order to ensure the security of national energy resources, since 2011, the Ministry of Natural Resources has organized the implementation of the strategic action
of prospecting for breakthroughs.

At the meeting, Yu Haifeng also introduced relevant specific data
.

Second, the new proven geological reserves of petroleum in the western region account for more than half of the country, and the output accounts for about 1/3 of the country
.

Third, the new resources of more than 80 old mines have reached a large and medium-sized scale, and nearly 800 production mines have extended the service life to varying degrees
.

Fourth, the degree of basic geological survey work in China has been continuously improved, and the coverage rate of 1:50,000 regional geological surveys has increased from 24.

Fifth, scientific research achievements such as "geological theoretical innovation and major breakthrough in mineral prospecting on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau" and "trinity" prospecting prediction theory in solid mineral exploration areas have greatly supported domestic mineral prospecting actions
.

The sixth is to issue the "three rate" index requirements for 124 mineral species such as coal and iron, select and promote 360 advanced and applicable technologies, processes and equipment, and the oil recovery rate has increased by an average of 9 percentage points, the recovery rate of solid mineral mining has increased by an average of 8 percentage points, and the recovery rate of mineral processing has increased by an average of 9.

The seventh is to promote the revision of the "Mineral Resources Law", deepen the reform of the mining rights transfer system, and form a new specification for
the classification of mineral resources and reserves in China.

"In the next step, the Ministry of Natural Resources will work with relevant departments to organize and implement a new round of strategic actions for prospecting breakthroughs, highlight the shortage of strategic resources, strengthen basic geological work, increase exploration, especially fine investigation, give full play to the role of various market players, and effectively enhance China's strategic mineral resources guarantee capabilities
.
" Yu Haifeng said
