Chapter 1430 Offshore Production Ship
The Nigerian specialties did not bring Yang Cheng such an extreme taste experience, at most it was a good lunch.
After lunch, under the arrangement of Abu, the three of them went to the golf course near the resort and experienced the thrill of playing on the coast of the Gulf of Guinea.
I have to say that the rich people in Nigeria are still very good at playing. When they were playing, they saw a Nigerian rich man with 9 unattractive black "beauties" by his side. The caddy said, Nine are rich wives, Nigeria is polygamous.
Hearing this, Abu's eyes lit up, and he seriously considered whether to immigrate to Nigeria.
In the end, the enthusiasm was dispelled by Conrad's words: "Aren't you afraid that the wives will join hands to divide up your property?"
Although you don't need to sweat a lot when playing golf, Nigeria, which is located near the equator, has relatively high humidity. After staying outdoors for a long time, the humidity on your body is too heavy, even though Nigeria is already very comfortable this season.
Yang Cheng went back to the room, washed it briefly, changed into clean clothes, and followed Abu to go out to meet the legendary businessman Oprah~
Conrad was also going with him, but he received a call from the United States temporarily, so he had to stay in the room for a video conference.
In the car, Yang Cheng and Abramovich sat side by side, and Abu said, "Congratulations, Jason, you won the Premier League title in your second season in Liverpool."
Yang Cheng smiled, "Thank you, this is the result of the hard work of the players."
"The Premier League game is getting harder and harder to play~" Abramovich sighed.
Yang Cheng echoed, "Yeah, acquisition plus investment, spending 1 billion pounds in two years is enough for me to build a solar eclipse~"
Talking about his pride, Abu blushed, "I don't think you are paying for a ship."
Yang Cheng shrugged, "My investment company lost 80 million to me last month, and I want to fire them all."
Abu was very surprised, obviously shocked by Yang Cheng's loss, 80 million is not a small amount to anyone, "Sorry, this is really regrettable news, I hope it doesn't affect your fundamentals."
Yang Cheng smiled wryly, "Who said no? My investment company's activities are almost exhausted."
"Fortunately, your company hasn't been listed yet, otherwise, with your words, I would immediately mobilize funds to attack your company." Abu said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Yang Cheng glanced at him, "Roman, if my company goes public, do you think I'll say that nonsense?"
This time, Abu made no secret of his oligarchy character, "I'm just telling you Jason, if one day I find out about your weakness, I will never be soft, don't blame me."
Yang Cheng really didn't take it to heart, and said lightly, "Me too~"
Abu didn't care, "That's why I like to make friends with you, we are the same kind of people~"
Lagos is the former capital and largest port city of Nigeria, and also the largest city in West Africa. In Nigeria, Lagos has the same status as the Shanghai stock market in country Z. It is the economic, financial and shipping center of Nigeria. A super first-tier city, much busier and more lively than Abuja.
It was the second time to go deep into this port city composed of islands. Yang Cheng's mood improved a lot when the convoy drove on the wide elevated iron bridge.
Compared with the road we passed yesterday, the road surface of the viaduct was obviously newly paved, smooth and clean, and finally found some shadow of a big city.
The destination of their trip is the EssenMobil office on Lagos Island, which is also the center of Lagos, where government agencies and large company clusters are all concentrated, and tall buildings stand on the shore. Rows upon rows of modern buildings present a thriving scene, which represents the future of Nigeria.
Walking into the office of Essen Mobil in Nigeria, which is a modern office building with simple decoration, when he and Abu entered the door side by side, he saw many black and white-collar workers in suits coming out of the elevator.
One of the black guys who looked very young came straight to Yang Cheng and Abu, and asked respectfully, "Is this Mr. Abramovich?"
"It's me~"
"Hello, Mr. Abramovich, Ms. Burns sent me down to greet her. She is in a meeting and I can't greet you in person. Let me say sorry."
"Lead the way ahead~"
Arriving at the top floor, as soon as he got out of the elevator door, he bumped into Ursula Burns and came out of the meeting room imposingly, showing a hearty smile from a long distance away, "Roman, did you come so early?"
Abu smiled and stepped forward to hug each other, "I came early if I have nothing to do. By the way, I will introduce you to the founder of New Era Media, Jason Yang. He is also the heir of Yuanshan Capital."
Burns' eyes lit up, he walked around Abu and hugged Yang Cheng, Yang Cheng was a little surprised by his enthusiasm, "Jason, can I call you directly?"
"Of course, Ms. Burns~"
"Thank you for everything you have done for Africa. I have seen your farm plan and I am very interested. Can you count me in?"
So it was because of this, Yang Cheng thought.
"It couldn't be better. Charity needs the efforts of more people. Just because of the North Sea Petroleum Company this time, I'm going to Nigeria. I plan to prepare a framework for the chicken farm. I hope Ms. Burns can help. "
Oprah from the business world immediately said, "No problem, please feel free to contact me if you have any needs. If ZF encounters resistance, I can also help with public relations."
This sentence can be used as a magic sword. EssenMobil is completely bugged in Nigeria, and Yang Cheng has no doubts about it.
"Hey, two, shouldn't we talk about making money? When can't we talk about charity?"
Who else can interject at this time, besides Abu?
"Look at me, this is my responsibility, come on, go to my office~"
It is not as luxurious and spacious as imagined, and the office is as simple as her own. It seems that one more person standing will look crowded.
After the three sat down and had a sip of coffee, Ms. Burns took the lead in opening the topic, "The Owowo oil field is the first offshore oil field discovered by EssenMobil in Nigeria, which is of great significance to our company. Therefore, We don't mind having all the proceeds to ourselves if possible.
However, both I and EssenMobil have a very positive attitude towards cooperation and sharing. Win-win results are better than taking risks alone. "
She seemed to be expressing her attitude, but in fact it was not nutritious. After all, Yang Cheng and the others hadn't proposed any decent benefits, and forced the other party to express their position with empty teeth. Is it really easy to bully the director of EssenMobil?
Yang Cheng asked casually, "I have read the information, the first offshore oil field in Nigeria was discovered by Total, right?"
Ms. Burns nodded, "Total's Egina oil field, which came into operation in 2012, has a daily output of up to 200,000 barrels and is expected to boost Nigeria's total oil production by 10%.
It is precisely because of the existence of the Egina oilfield that the Nigerian government began to shift its attention to the sea and increase the development of offshore oilfields. It can be said that we have caught up with a good time. "
Abu continued, "The reserves of the Owowo oil field are much larger than those of the Egina oil field. It is conservatively estimated that there are 5 million barrels of reserves, and the highest is close to 1 billion barrels."
Burns corrected Abu's words, "To be precise, we have identified a total reserve of 1 billion barrels, and this news will be released soon."
Yang Cheng and Abu looked at each other, 1 billion barrels, this is not a small number.
"As you all know, the cost of developing offshore oil fields is too high. It is too risky to rely solely on EssenMobil's investment, and most of the funds will be pledged, so we have not locked the door to cooperation."
Abu immediately said, "20%, North Sea Petroleum Company is willing to share 20% of the investment, of course we have to enjoy the same right to benefit."
Burns shook his head, "It doesn't matter what I said, but ExonMobil's final holding ratio will increase to 37%."
Yang Cheng's heart sank, Essen Mobil and Nigerian Petroleum are bound to cut off most of the cake, and the rest are leftovers
Seeing that Yang Cheng and Abu didn't answer the conversation, Burns didn't care, and continued, "My plan is to complete the process this year, and officially start construction and trial production next year. By 2018 at the latest, the largest offshore production ship It will sail to the Owowo sea area to start pumping crude oil from oil reservoirs deep under the sea.
The time is still very tight. After all, external bidding is still needed, and the drilling platform and so on need to cooperate with suppliers. "
"How much is the cost of the offshore production ship?" Yang Cheng is more concerned about the cost.
Burns replied, “As of now, the financial terms of offshore oil fields are much better than onshore, which means that in deepwater oil fields, we international producers can not only reduce safety risks, but also get a larger share.
Compared with the huge benefits, although the cost is high, it is nothing.
The floating production storage and offloading device "Egina", which was built by Total at a cost of US$4 billion, is 330 meters in length and is the largest floating production storage and offloading device ever built by Total. It is the highest in Nigeria. As the operating technology of this large mechanical device matures, the cost will be further reduced. "
4 billion U.S. dollars, this figure was within Yang Cheng's acceptable range, and it wasn't too much to share with each other.
As for other operating costs, it is not worth mentioning.
"Floating production storage and offloading unit, are you going to place an order with Total?" Abramovich worried that Total would ask for more share because of the competition.
Burns hesitated for a moment, "It hasn't been decided yet, but I personally prefer to hand over the order to Total, they have experience and technology."
It's a bad start, and the terms have not been negotiated yet. The other party seems to have made an internal decision.
It seems that there is not only competition among the giants, but also intensive cooperation.
Before Yang Cheng could make a sound, Burns turned to ask, "By the way, I heard that Delta Airlines has recently encountered a crisis of trust?"
Abramovich also cast a curious look. He does not often move in the United States, and the source of the news is a little slower.
Yang Cheng smiled wryly and shook her head, "Yeah, a big trouble!"
