"Comrades, have you all read Chief Engineer Zhang's investigation report?" Lu Zhengtao spoke crisply and straight to the point.
Everyone nodded.
"At the World Energy Conference in Nanhua City, the country put forward the development expectations of combustible ice and announced that it would explore and develop combustible ice. What do you think about this new energy project? Let's talk about it and express your opinions!" Lu Zhengtao
I'd like to hear other people's opinions first.
"Director Lu convened such an urgent meeting. He must have gotten some news. Director Lu, please tell us first!" The brief lull in the conference room prompted Zhang Jue, the secretary to the board of directors who presided over the meeting, to speak quickly to calm the atmosphere.
Lu Zhengtao also knew in his heart that he was indeed a little anxious about this matter. I'm afraid that everyone still hasn't figured out what happened.
But time does not wait for me. If this matter is preempted by others, Fuhai Group may lose a major field, and the energy expended in trying to catch up in the future will not be wasted.
"Okay, let me talk briefly first!" Lu Zhengtao cleared his voice, "As for the situation of combustible ice, it was introduced in the investigation report. I will explain it in detail to everyone in a moment. What I want to say is that combustible ice
It will be the next energy direction. As a manufacturing enterprise of marine engineering equipment, we must keep up with the times and look at problems with a forward-looking perspective!"
After hearing what Lu Zhengtao said, everyone immediately understood that this was the plan for Fuhai Group to develop in the direction of flammable ice!
Zhang Yujie immediately introduced some specific information about combustible ice to the group leadership, and then pointed out that some large foreign energy companies have begun research and have cooperated with marine engineering equipment companies to develop it, and they are already ahead of the curve.
At this time, Yan Xiao, the executive vice president of Fuhai Group, coughed lightly. As an old man of Fuhai Group, he had watched Fuhai Group grow little by little, and his words had more weight. Lu Zhengtao also respected him more.
"Director Lu, I have basically understood what you mean. Chief Engineer Zhang also made it very clear that the matter of flammable ice is indeed very important. However, I also read Chief Engineer Zhang's report. At present, there is no one in the country.
If an enterprise can build such high-level offshore engineering equipment on its own, even though our Fuhai Group has many years of experience in equipment manufacturing, we are probably powerless!"
Yan Xiao's words made the leaders present nod their heads. The field of marine engineering equipment is not like other industries and requires extremely strict entry conditions. Moreover, most engineering equipment is currently controlled by Western developed countries. This does not mean that it is casual.
It can be completed, and if it fails, it will not be a small loss.
"The most important thing is that our Fuhai Group currently has many lucrative orders. Is it worth taking this risk?"
Lu Zhengtao naturally knew that Fuhai Group currently had many orders, but he also knew the facts behind Yan Xiao's words.
That is, most of the orders that Fuhai Group can currently undertake are designed by foreign companies!
They are now also focusing on the new direction of combustible ice. Once they compete with them, the consequences will most likely be that they will not pick up the sesame seeds and even throw away the watermelons.
"Vice President Yan's worries are justified to a certain extent. As an enterprise, we must focus on survival and making money is the last word. But have you ever thought that our Fuhai Group has grown from a small fishing boat repair shop to one that can build tens of thousands of boats?"
What does a ton drilling platform rely on? It relies on continuous hard work and progress, and continuous learning of experience!”
"Comrades, we do have a lot of orders now. The domestic deepwater oil and gas development is in full swing. I can foresee that there will be more orders in the future. But have you ever thought that we have built so much offshore engineering equipment?
, did we design one ourselves? All the equipment we installed had to be purchased according to the other party’s drawings. All the equipment was specified by others, and there was no autonomy at all. Even though we are such a large enterprise, with tens of thousands of people
The scale is actually just to act as a low-level worker and earn a little bit of labor remuneration!"
"If the development of flammable ice continues like this, not only will it still hand over most of the profits to others, but I am afraid that it will repeat the same mistakes, continue to work behind other people's butts, and act based on other people's faces."
"Comrades, if there is no crisis, there will be no future. If you always follow others, you will never succeed. If your destiny is controlled by others, you may have to sit back and wait for death!"
These words made everyone here fall silent. These words sounded harsh, but they were all true. However, everyone was satisfied with making profits without much risk, forgetting the hidden dangers behind them, and lived in worry and died in happiness.
That's the truth.
"I dare not forget my country because of my humble position. As a Chinese offshore worker, Fuhai also has to shoulder important responsibilities, not only for himself, but also for the motherland! How many times has someone choked me? We all won't forget it, right?"
Lu Zhengtao's words made everyone present feel the great responsibility and fell into deep thought.
Yan Xiao said with some shame: "Dr. Lu's vision is indeed much higher than ours. We only focus on the sesame seeds and millet in front of us without any further considerations. I am here to express my support for Dong Lu's proposal."
!”
Other group leaders also expressed their support for Lu Zhengtao's idea.
Soon, the leadership of Hainan Group unified its philosophy, which was to strive to break into a new direction in the combustible ice project, crack this hard nut, and bring domestic offshore engineering equipment and technology into the world's advanced ranks to ensure the energy security of the motherland and also
It can allow enterprises to enter a new period of development and have stronger strength to face market challenges.
According to Lu Zhengtao's proposal, the group's chief engineer Zhang Yujie was responsible for leading the preparation of the feasibility report and was fully responsible for the preliminary preparations for the flammable ice project. Other departments should fully cooperate.
The primary problem facing Zhang Yujie is the lack of information in all aspects. As he told Lu Zhengtao, although flammable ice has been discovered for a hundred years, research in this area has been in a sluggish state, with only the past twenty years
, countries around the world have an increasing demand for energy, and they have focused their attention on this again.
Combustible ice has a very significant feature compared to ordinary oil and gas development, that is, the environment it generates is very harsh. For developers, this is also the primary problem that must be overcome.
At present, most of the research on flammable ice mining is based on permafrost. As for the deep sea, which has more abundant reserves, it was not until 2013 that the world successfully mined flammable ice from the seabed more than a thousand meters deep for the first time.
In addition, deep-sea oil and gas development is also an international problem. Faced with the unpredictable marine environment, it must be dealt with carefully.
