China has initiated its most ambitious fault zone scientific drilling project in Yunnan's Red River Fault Zone, aiming to reach a depth of 3,000 meters. The project will generate valuable core samples and subsurface data, advancing earthquake science and subsurface exploration through cutting-edge o
Sinopec’s Chief Scientist Sun Huanquan visited Shengli Oilfield to assess shale oil development progress. He emphasized enhancing data accuracy, geological modeling, and unconventional technology integration. The visit underscored a push toward low-cost, high-efficiency, and scalable shale oil devel
PetroChina's Changqing Oilfield has set new national records in onshore coalbed gas drilling with the completion of a 2,500-meter ultra-long horizontal well. This milestone showcases significant progress in technology and management for coalbed gas development in complex geological conditions. With
China Coal Tech's new CBM extraction system, featuring advanced drilling and fracturing technologies, has been applied in over 40 mines nationwide. It enhances gas recovery from complex coal seams and sets new records for deep CBM wells. The innovation marks a major step in safe, efficient, and gree
XCMG’s XSM2250 modular drilling rig is accelerating CBM development in Shenmu City with daily drilling exceeding 600 meters. Designed for efficiency and mobility, it reduces setup time and costs while enhancing environmental performance. XCMG continues to innovate in green drilling technologies to s
The Western Sichuan Gas Field has exceeded 2 billion cubic meters of gas output since its 2024 launch. The project emphasizes integrated gas extraction, purification, and delivery under complex geological and safety conditions. Innovative production, risk control, energy efficiency, and lifecycle ma
China’s terrestrial shale oil output is rising, but recovery remains low due to the poor mobility of heavy hydrocarbons in nano-scale pores. Professor Zhao Wenzhi introduces the concept of “component flow,” where light and intermediate hydrocarbons help mobilize heavy components through miscibility.
A key lab focused on deep coalbed methane (CBM) development has been approved in Inner Mongolia. Led by Peking University and joined by two other major universities, the lab will develop technologies and theories for efficient, large-scale CBM exploitation, supporting China’s dual carbon goals and r
CNPC has launched construction of its first million-ton CCUS project at the Xinjiang Oilfield, aimed at capturing 1 million tons of CO₂ annually from a coal power plant. As part of China's low-carbon push, the project will support enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and help transition Xinjiang’s energy mix
Tuoha Oilfield has completed the first drilling of its ultra-deep heavy oil "Ballast Project" in Lukuqin, aiming for over 10 million tons in cumulative production. Known for its extreme depth and oil viscosity, the site presents a global extraction challenge. With only 7.49% of reserves tapped, the
Xinjiang Party Secretary Ma Xingrui visited Hami to push forward key energy, resource, and infrastructure projects, emphasizing new energy development, digital construction, private investment support, and the transformation of Xinjiang’s resource advantage into national strategic capacity.
We have selected 10 hot tweets (categories) for the annual ECF International Shale Gas Forum based on the 2024 reading volume.
