Hey energy enthusiasts! 🔥
Big news coming out of Xinjiang's Tarim Basin! Since 2024 (yes, this year!), the region has been brimming with energy as 12 brand-new gas wells have popped up in the Tarim Oilfield. That's right—a dozen new wells boosting the gas supply in southern Xinjiang. 🚀
So, what's the buzz all about? Well, the oilfield is now churning out over 16 million cubic meters of gas every single day! And get this—the new infrastructure is so sleek, it's sending gas through a whopping 4,000-kilometer pipeline all the way from Xinjiang to the bustling city of Shanghai. Talk about connecting regions! 🛣️
But wait, there's more! A shiny new natural gas processing plant has sprung up on the Pamirs Plateau. This powerhouse has ramped up the area's daily processing capacity from 1 million to a staggering 3 million cubic meters. That's triple the energy flow! 💪
Over the past 35 years, since the exploration kicked off, they've built a total of 32 oil and gas fields surrounding the Tarim Basin. It's like watching a blockbuster sequel—each one bigger and better than the last! 🎬
This surge in energy production isn't just numbers and stats; it's fueling homes, industries, and dreams across China. Keep your eyes peeled, folks—Xinjiang's energy scene is heating up, and it's electrifying! ⚡️
