Chapter 45 Huasheng No. 1
Everett Lee DeGorill is a talented person in the oil exploration industry, the founder of Amerada Petroleum Company, and the founder of the American Petroleum Geologists Association.
He personally set up the world miracle in 1910. This high-yield oil well can spray 15,000 tons of crude oil every day, with an annual output of more than 5.4 million tons. It can be said that just one well has surpassed the Dagang Oilfield in our country.
By the way, this well No. 4, which once created a world miracle in 1910, is located in Tampico.
Of course, at this time, Tampico, or the entire Mexico, has not yet been found a high-yield oil well with a daily output of more than 10,000 tons, and there is not even a slightly larger oil field. Pearson, who should have discovered the Dospocas Well 1 in mid-1908, now has to sell Tampico's land to Yan Guang due to the bankruptcy crisis.
But DeGollier, who should have started exploration, is now just a fresh graduate student.
Historically, DeGorill was recommended by the director of the US Federal Geological Survey to come to Mexico to serve Pearson's Mexican Eagle Company before graduation, and helped him find the 4th Well of Porterodrano.
However, because Pearson did not find the Dos Pocas Well 1 as in history, DeGorille was not recommended by the director of the US Federal Geological Survey to work in Mexico and complete his studies at the University of Oklahoma.
However, after completing his studies, DGollier personally went to Mexico and explored several places where oil is most likely to be discovered in Mexico, including Tampico.
Originally, DeGorill liked Pearson's Mexican Eagle, and had packed his luggage and returned to the United States to ask the director of the Federal Geological Survey who admired him very much. However, just as he set out for Tampico, news of Tampico's change of ownership came...
There was no choice but to go back to the United States and ask the Director of the Geological Survey for a new letter of recommendation.
At this time, he was not worried that Tampico would change hands again, because there was no large oil field there, and what he was worried about was that the Chinese businessman had drilled a high-yield oil well before he arrived.
fine…
Before he arrived, Yan Guang still drilled out some inferior oil wells.
Yan Guang, who had a poor knowledge base, certainly had never heard of DeGoril's name, but he still had considerable trust in DeGoril, a young man who firmly believed in Tampico's large oil fields, and even accompanied him to various places in Tampico to explore oil.
Although DeGollier was a lunatic in the eyes of several experts, they were also happy to hide in the company's building and watch DeGollier and Yan Guang run around outside.
But soon they couldn't be happy because just as they were hiding in the office for coffee, Wang Er took a dismissal book written by Yan Guang and told them to get out completely.
Under the surveillance of Wang Er and several bodyguards, the experts who packed things dared not speak out.
"Two lunatics actually want to find a large oil field in such a ghost place? It's just a dream." After a few words in his heart, these experts could only leave with a faint sense of superiority.
In their opinion, there is absolutely no large oil fields in places like Tampico, even if it is ten thousand years old.
However, after thinking about helping to recommend DeGorill and waiting for him to get out, several experts still felt unbalanced.
So, in the exchange meeting between the prospectors in Mexico City, another joke about DeGoril was added.
People say he is a "madman who wants to find large oil fields and high-yield wells in Tampico." Tampico has officially become synonymous with no oil, although there are still many inferior oil wells there.
――――――――――
At this time, Yan Guang and Degaolier were riding in a carriage to another place where there might be oil.
These days, DeGorill has selected seven positions for Yan Guang, and this will be the eighth one. This number is very good and Yan Guang likes it very much.
"Boss, that's it." After jumping out of the carriage, DeGorill told Yan Guang.
As he said that, DeGoril ran to the distance and found some unknown liquid from the cracks on the ground for Yan Guang to see. "These are oil seedlings."
"Is this the oil seedling?" Yan Guang scratched his head. "I heard those experts coming and going all day long. I thought it was a plant that only grew in places with oil."
DeGorill grinned. "The so-called oil seedlings are the traces of oil in the earth's crust on the ground, and can be said to be one of the important signs of finding oil."
Yan Guang ran to the crack just now, reached out to take it out, and finally took out a lot of unknown liquid like that in DeGorille's hand.
For three or four months, although Yan Guang would watch from the side every time he drilled, the experts never explained to Yan Guang what oil seedlings are and how to find places with oil. They just found a few places outside and took people to drill.
Now that DeGoril said this, Yan Guang's confidence in him has increased a lot.
"At least, he is much better than those wastes." Thinking of this in his heart, Yan Guang took DeGoril back to the company's headquarters. There, Yan Guang learned from Wang Er that the experts had already gotten out.
"Very good." Yan Guang nodded. Although spending some money to raise a few waste experts was nothing to Yan Guang, since he had already obtained DeGoril, Yan Guang had to let these waste experts who always had a slight sense of superiority in front of him get out of here.
DeGorill was also surprised to hear that the experts were fired by Yan Guang. After all, he was recommended by them.
However, when thinking about those guys always say that they are crazy behind their backs, and sometimes they even show a normal sense of superiority towards crazy people in front of them...
Forget it, it’s good that those guys are out of here, at least they will make themselves feel much happier.
Without those guys who only stand aside and talk sarcasticly, the workers below became much more diligent, and soon a few drilling derricks were stood up.
I don’t know if it’s because of luck or whether DeGollier’s ability is indeed much better than those experts. The first well actually drilled a lot of oil. Although it is not as terrifying as the Dos Pocas 1 and Petra Rodrano Well 4, it is also a high-yield oil well with a daily output of more than 2,000 tons.
"This is the real oil..." Yan Guang murmured as he looked at the oil that kept spraying out of the oil well.
DeGorill, who was standing by, had already been excited to embrace Wang Er. Although this oil well, which was later named Huasheng No. 1 by Yan Guang, was not a 10,000-ton well, it at least proved that Tampico could find high-yield oil wells.
And finding high-yield oil wells in Tampico is a powerful fight back to the guys in Mexico City who say they are crazy?
