    CNOOC announced on the evening of October 19 that it had made another major breakthrough in exploration in the southeastern Qiongdongnan Basin of the southeastern part of Hainan Island, discovered China's first deep-water deep atmospheric field - Baodao 21-1, with proven geological reserves of more than 50 billion cubic meters, achieving the largest breakthrough in the Songnan-Baodao sag in more than half a century, and is a powerful progress
    in accelerating deep-sea exploration.

    In the field of offshore oil and gas exploration, water with a depth of more than 300 meters is generally called deep water, and wells with a depth of more than 3,000 meters are defined as deep wells
    .
    The Baodao 21-1 gas field discovered this time is located in the deep water area of the southeast of Hainan Island, with a maximum operating water depth of more than 1,500 meters and a completed drilling depth of more than 5,000 meters, about 150 kilometers away from the "Shenhai No.
    1" ultra-deepwater atmospheric field, and the marine geological conditions are extremely complex
    .

    Wu Keqiang, chief geologist of CNOOC Hainan Branch, said that the successful discovery of Baodao 21-1 not only confirmed the exploration potential of the Baodao sake, but also showed that we have made important breakthroughs in deepwater deep exploration technology, which has important guiding significance
    for the exploration of similar strata.
