"This time, the first batch of open areas to be explored has a total of 11 areas, 5 of which are offshore and 6 on land. The five offshore areas are currently identified as Zafar and Mashaer, 110 kilometers southeast of Baku, and on land. The six dollars above are definitely Galaboli and Karamatine..." Little Aliyev read the document in a blunt tone.

The representatives of the oil companies in the audience whispered to each other, their excitement was uncontrollable, which was completely opposite to the expressions of the Azerbaijanis on the stage.

11 exploration areas!Even if only one-third of the exploration yields oil, there are still four oil fields.

As far as the history of Azerbaijan is concerned, the 11 oil fields they selected have a great possibility of producing oil. More than half of the oil fields have undergone preliminary exploration by the former Soviet Union. This is the sincerity shown by Aliyev. It is also the place where the Azerbaijanis on stage are upset.

Put yourself in your shoes and think about it, if China finally succeeded in independence, and foreign companies went deep into the interior, choosing resource points to exploit the country's most important crude oil, how would you feel?

However, this is the case of the world ecology where the jungle of the jungle preys on the jungle.

The Azerbaijanis were defeated by the Bolsheviks in 19 years, and they didn’t even keep their martyrs’ cemetery. In 1993, the Azerbaijanis could refuse foreign oil companies to take whatever they want, and they could refuse to open exploration areas to foreign companies, but the result may be worse .Armenia, who is eyeing like a tiger, Husseinov and Mamedov, who are wary of wolves, Russia and Turkey who are condescending... If the legitimacy of the government cannot be guaranteed, the value of a policy can be imagined.

The 70-year-old Aliyev thought very openly. Since he wanted to take out the oil field, he simply took out 11 yuan in one breath. Anyway, foreign oil companies also gave money.

This is somewhat beyond the expectations of others.

The so-called others include both oil company representatives and Azerbaijanis.

Su Cheng picked up the cup.Moisturized his lips, and suddenly felt a little heartbroken.

Perhaps, take another oil field outside the plan?

Even if it is not as huge as the Aqijiu Oilfield, given the abundance of oil and gas resources in Azerbaijan, it is normal for any oilfield to produce one million tons of crude oil per year...

Of course, it is also possible that the oil field cannot be explored.

Su Cheng's sudden expansion of greed was put on the brakes.Zafar Oilfield is a well-known oil-free exploration area.After the American company signed a big contract, it explored here for three years with great enthusiasm, but finally got nothing.Walk away disappointed, losing billions of dollars.

If Dahua Industry wants to win the Aqijiu Oilfield, it can't stand the toss.

In the future, the Aqijiu Oilfield once accounted for 80% of Azerbaijan's crude oil exports, and it was the biggest reliance of bp, known as the "dancing elephant".If it hadn't been broken in Russia's Tyumen Oilfield. bp company is expected to become the biggest company in the 21st century.

From the perspective of the future, the failure of bp more or less represents the failure of the British Empire.Switching to Exxon Mobil, Putin may not be so easy to regain his Tyumen oil field.

In China in the 90s, even GDP could not catch up with the British Empire, and it was difficult for Sioux City to arouse the pride of "big four happiness".

"Aqijiu Oilfield is No. [-]!" Su Cheng said silently, and opened the delivered file.Look carefully.He made a huge bet in Azerbaijan, and the target is naturally not just an oil field, but he needs to eat every bite.Only after winning the Aqijiu oil field, he will consider other oil fields.Furthermore, winning the Aqijiu Oilfield will also enhance Dahua Industrial's position in the international oil industry.At that time.Ordinary oil fields, there is no need to keep saliva to fight.

Simultaneous interpretation is provided in the conference hall.However, only English, Turkic and French are available.Su Cheng turned off the earphones to a very low level, and focused on the document that was just distributed.

Basically what Aliyev said can be found in the documents, so he didn't bother to practice listening.

The first two pages of the document are all nonsense. Except for repeating the location of 4 oil fields, there is no explanation for the remaining 7 oil fields.Only a few people know that the unidentified oil fields include Zirag, 100 kilometers east of Baku, Yilam and Murahhanlei in the Caspian Sea. Concerned about the location of large oil fields.

Sioux City quickly turned the page and found a way to bid for the oil field: floating share and signing bonus.

This is the classic oil development template in the 90s, and Sioux City breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as it is a sharing model, it is fine. Although it is not as good as the oil concession buyout policy that made oil companies happy in the 80s, it is still much more comfortable than the oilfield exploration service contracts after 00.

Su Cheng pressed his fingers on the paper, and slowly slid down:

For oil fields with an annual output of less than 100 million barrels, the Azerbaijani government's basic share is %.

For oil fields with an annual output of less than 500 million barrels, the Azerbaijani government's basic share is 30%.

For oil fields with an annual output of less than 1000 million barrels, the Azerbaijani government's basic share is 40%.

For oil fields with an annual output of more than 1000 million barrels, the Azerbaijani government's basic share is 50%.

The content of the bidding is to increase the proportion of the basic share.In other words, if an oil field with an annual output of more than 150 million tons is obtained, at least 50% of the profits must be distributed to the Azerbaijani government. In order to bid successfully, it is possible for oil companies to give 55% or even 60%.

Given current oil prices, that's not too much.After all, no matter what, it is a business that earns hundreds of millions of dollars a year. In developed countries in Europe and the United States, a high-profit company would have to pay that much in taxes.

The most attractive is the 30-year or 35-year contract period.Since the 70s, Azerbaijan's contract time is the longest. The so-called contract of the century has more than half of its value in this contract time.

Because the price of oil is constantly rising. In the 90s, the price of oil hovered between US$ and US$30 per barrel, and 50% of the profit sharing fell on some high-cost oil fields. It was difficult for oil companies to obtain a profit of US$5 per barrel.If an offshore drilling platform is used to operate, the interest expenses invested in the early stage may cause negative equity in the first five years.

However, after 00, the oil price stopped hovering, and after rising all the way, the superiority of the sharing contract was reflected.Not to mention the highest price of 140 US dollars, the average price of 100 US dollars per barrel can still be expected.Get rid of the cost.The profits that oil companies can get from 50% are often as high as US$30 or even US$40, so that the deep-sea oil fields in Mexico, which cost an average of US$[-] or US$[-], have become delicious.

That is to say, since this period, the proportion of oil sharing contracts in oil-producing countries has been declining all the way, and soon fell below 15%. According to the production volume, the oil company is paid about 10 dollars per barrel.

compare to.Azerbaijan's contract of the century can be implemented until around 25 years ago. Needless to say, the profits that oil companies can reap, this kind of continuous cash income is what most companies in the business world can't wait for.

At the same time, this also makes the ratio of sharing extremely important.At this time, take an extra 0.5 percentage points.It is more valuable than the mining service contract in the future, and how to determine the share ratio of the bidding will become a test.

Looking at this document, the entire conference room became much quieter.

Su Cheng pondered for a while, then turned the page again, and found the second project, the signing bonus part.

The signing fee is the signing fee of the oil company.This is a pure cash outlay.Every time an oil field is acquired, a signing fee must first be paid before exploration and production, and afterwards.Even if no oil field is found, the signing fee is non-refundable.

The base signing fee set by the Azerbaijani government was $5000 million, less than expected, however. The 11 oil fields also have a revenue of 5.5 million US dollars, which is enough for the Azerbaijani government to spend.

Aliyev held an oilfield bidding briefing so nervously.What I stared at, first of all, was the signing fee.

The income shared is definitely not available within a year.The signing fee is different. This is the fund that can solve the urgent need, that is, the fund that can stabilize the regime. Aliyev would rather have less than get it in his pocket first.

Su Cheng closed his eyes and fell into thought.

The little Aliyev on the stage was still talking, but hardly anyone listened carefully.

Apart from the number of fields and the way the bids are made, there is not much to know.

Half an hour later, Aliyev ended the meeting and said: "This is the end of the bidding briefing session. Starting next week, the Azerbaijan Oil Ministry will start accepting bids from various companies. The deadline is on the 10th of next month. Details will be communicated to you before the bidding deadline.”

The specific information of the oil fields will be notified before the bidding deadline, but he did not say which day it will be. This is a common method used by oil-producing countries to limit information to prevent some unsatisfactory oil fields from being unable to sell at a price or even being sold. shoot.

If the oil company can't find other means to obtain this part of the information, then they have no choice but to prepare to spend two sleepless nights two or three days before the deadline—to obtain as much information as possible by rushing for time.

But regardless of whether the oil companies can find other means, the oil-producing countries will never suffer.

Aliyev didn't intend to chat with the crowd, he simply said a word and left the venue.

Little Aliyev sent his father away, then came down with a smile and greeted various companies.

There were many companies in the venue, and he only had time to say a few words with Su Cheng before turning to other tables.

A handsome foreigner came to Dahua in a hurry, handed Su Cheng a letter, and said, "Mr. Ducat said that he is willing to fulfill the previous transaction."

"Got it." Su Cheng opened the letter, and it was Dukat's own letter.Facing the temptation of 11 oil fields, he was undoubtedly willing to reach a so-called "gentleman's agreement" with Sioux City.

No matter how you look at it, it is self-evident that the benefits to bp are self-evident if you give up the bidding for one oil field in order to obtain information on the other 11 oil fields.In fact, the only oil company that knows about the other seven oil fields is Sioux City. Even if bp has a way, it is impossible to have a faster way to get oilfield information.Even a week in advance can give a more accurate judgment on the oil field.What's more, there are 7 oil fields to be inspected here.

"Now hand over the oilfield information to Dukat, what if he regrets it?" It was Qin Yun, Dean Qin's daughter and Xiaopang's wife who spoke.This calculating woman, relying on her personal ability, has long been a core employee of Dahua Industrial. Unlike the straightforward Dean Qin, Qin Yun has a weak sense of trust. When she was in the Dahua Strategy Department, she was the supplier. A frightened and difficult person.Now she casts distrustful eyes on the British.

"Knowing yourself and the enemy will never end in a hundred battles. Naturally, you have to find a way to know whether Ducat will repent." Su Cheng's voice was clear, obviously in a state of calm thinking.

Qin Yun's gaze was still on the back of the handsome British student, and at the same time he asked strangely: "How can you be sure whether Dukat has repented?"

"Yeah, how can I be sure." Xiaopang moved lightly, blocking Qin Yun's sight.

Su Cheng smiled and said, "The opinion of the oil company will ultimately be reflected in the bid document. We will naturally know what the oil company thinks when we get the news of the bid document."

"What if they bid at the last minute?"

"As long as the bid opening time is later than the bidding time." Su Cheng set his sights on the little Aliyev.The president of the national oil company was finally decided to be him. The timing of the tender and the entire process of finalization were also in the hands of Aliyev Jr.

In other words, if you have successfully completed the job of Aliyev, you will be considered as successful in the bidding.The final bidding price of Dahua must be determined by competing companies.
