China is often in the news for its new use. Once again, Dragon is doing something that the whole world is eyeing. This time China has started digging a 10,000-meter pit in the ground in search of bottomless reserves of natural gas. China has done this for the second time this year. The official news agency Xinhua has given this information.
China National Petroleum Corporation on Thursday began drilling the Shendi Chuan well, which has a design depth of 10,520 meters (6.5 miles), in Sichuan province, the agency reported. Earlier, on May 30, China started excavation work in Xinjiang province. Which at that time was described as the deepest well ever drilled in China. According to the report Xinhua, by digging this time, China is trying to find ultra-deep natural gas reserves.
Oil Reserves In Sichuan
China’s Sichuan province is known for its spicy food, spectacular mountain scenery and pandas. This is the largest area of oil reserves in China. It is also home to some of China’s largest shale gas reserves. However, due to the difficult mountainous terrain, the Chinese fast companies have not been able to get that much success from here, for which they are constantly striving.
The Purpose Of Obtaining Information Related To Mineral Resources
Chinese scientists say this excavation can provide important information about mineral resources and natural disasters. China’s government has, in recent years, pressured energy companies to increase fuel security by boosting domestic production amid power shortages, geopolitical conflicts and global price volatility.
