It took 18 days and sailed 1,600 nautical miles... On February 6, the reporter learned from the Tianjin Port Free Trade Zone Enterprise Offshore Oil Engineering Co., Ltd. that the 100,000-ton-level deep-water semi-submersible production and storage platform "Deep Sea One" independently developed and built by my country The energy station successfully arrived in the Lingshui area in the southeast of Hainan Island, and settled in the "Deep Sea One" gas field (Lingshui 17-2), and started offshore mooring, installation and production commissioning. my country's first 1,500-meter self-operated deep-water large gas field has thus taken another crucial step towards formal production.

"The'Deep Sea No. 1'energy station was constructed and delivered on January 14. On January 19, under the joint traction of three high-horsepower tugboats, it departed from Yantai, Shandong, and traversed the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea and the Taiwan Strait. It is the first time in China that long-distance towing of 53,000 tons of deep-sea oil and gas production equipment has been implemented in China,” Liu Kongzhong, deputy general manager of the Lingshui 17-2 project team of China National Offshore Oil Corporation, told reporters.

　　Lingshui 17-2 is my country’s first 1,500-meter self-operated deep-water large gas field with proven geological reserves of over 100 billion cubic meters, 150 kilometers away from Hainan Island. Yu Yi, Chairman of Offshore Oil Engineering Co., Ltd., said that after the gas field is put into production, it will provide a steady supply of 3 billion cubic meters of gas every year for Guangdong, Hong Kong, Qiong and other places, which can meet a quarter of the residential gas demand in the Greater Bay Area. At the same time, the use of the gas field facility "Deep Sea No. 1" energy station can drive the development of surrounding medium-sized gas fields such as Lingshui 18-1 and Lingshui 25-1 to form a gas field cluster, relying on the established connection between the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and Hainan Island The main artery of the natural gas pipeline network of the Free Trade Port has built a trillion cubic meters of atmosphere in the South China Sea to maximize the development, production and transmission of natural gas resources.
