Hey there, energy enthusiasts! 🔥 Guess what? China's Tarim Oilfield just cranked up the heat with 14 brand-new ultra-deep gas wells! 🌟
In 2024, the Tarim Oilfield, part of the China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC), brought these mega wells online, pumping over one billion cubic meters of natural gas into China's West-to-East gas pipelines. That's a whole lotta gas to keep things cooking! 🍳
Nestled in the vast Tarim Basin of northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, the Tarim Oilfield is a big deal. 🌍 The latest superstar well, Bozi 25, is drilled in the majestic South Tianshan Mountains and is now up and running! ⛰️
But here's the kicker: Bozi 25 isn't just any well. As the largest natural gas reserve in the Bozi-Dabei area, it's extended the Tarim Oilfield's gas-bearing zone by an impressive 10 kilometers to the east. Talk about reaching new horizons! 🚀
This boost not only amps up China's energy game but also powers the West-to-East gas pipelines that fuel homes and industries across the country. Energy win! 💡
So next time you think about what's keeping the lights on, remember the ultra-deep wonders of the Tarim Oilfield! ⚡
