3.5 billion tons of oil were discovered, why did no one dare to exploit it?

Inventing tools, manufacturing tools, and using tools are the foundation for human beings to develop intelligent civilization, all of which need to rely on resources and energy. Conventional wildlife energy intake relies only on hunting and does not require additional energy. But human civilization is different.

Especially after entering the modern industrial society, the development of technology is inseparable from the use of energy. In particular, these large countries in the world are very dependent on fossil fuels. While the current emphasis is on developing clean energy (e.g., wind, solar, nuclear, etc.), fossil energy is still at the center.

This oil reserve is located in Turkmenistan's Karakum Desert, where scientists have detected about 3.5 billion tons of oil, and it has been burning for 49 years since the discovery was discovered, with a diameter of 100 meters and a depth of 70 meters. Scientists estimate that hundreds of billions of dollars worth of natural gas have been burned. This burning crater is known locally as the Grand Bazaar Crata or the Gates of Hell.

That year, Soviet geologists came here to conduct geological exploration, but because there was no correct location in advance, the ground collapsed when drilling with equipment, and it turned out that there was a gas pit underneath the project. After the collapse, a large amount of gas was released, and geologists, fearing the health effects of the gas on the inhabitants of the surrounding area, decided to set it on fire. The Karakum Desert is one of the world's four largest deserts located on the eastern coast of the Caspian Sea, covering an area of more than 300,000 square kilometers.

Because the annual precipitation is only more than 200 mm, it is also known as the Black Desert. This desert is not only full of countless sands, but also strange craters, some say that it is the gates of hell. It is rich in natural gas, which translates to about 3.5 billion tons of oil based on the volume of the pit.

That's enough number for people all over the world to use it for more than a hundred years.

But why not do that? The pit was not natural, and the Soviet inspection team accidentally dug this large hole and found that it was connected to gas. Considering the safety of nearby residents, I wanted to light a fire, but I didn't expect it to burn for more than 40 years, and the natural gas in this pit continued to spread, and now it has become a fire pit.

The natural environment is harsh, it is located in the largest desert in Central Asia, the climate is dry, rivers and lakes are scarce, and the lack of water resources is not conducive to oil and gas exploitation. Moreover, the temperature difference between day and night in the desert area is large, the temperature reaches 50, the winter is cold, the summer is hot, and under this temperature difference, people and mining equipment are facing great danger. Moreover, the fire in the pit here must be extinguished before it is developed.

Turkmenistan is a developing country that mainly produces cotton in agriculture and animal husbandry, but its economy is backward, it does not have advanced equipment and technology, and it does not have a large number of talents.

Because there is so much oil in the vicinity of gas, it is likely to cause a hidden danger to the safety of nearby residents, so no one dares to mine it now.

Because the extraction of this oil requires a lot of technology, the technology in the world has not yet reached the qualification to extract this oil.

Located in the Karakum Desert, the natural gas contained in the desert here was ignited and has not been extinguished, and is known as the Gate of Hell, and if you want to mine it, you can only mine it when the fire is extinguished.

Second, we are not developing a lot of oil resources at present, we are not using a lot of oil resources, so there are still a lot of oil resources.

Because the use of oil takes a period of time, it is not used up for the time being, the storage of oil on the earth is still very large, and some places may just not be found, and now the development of science and technology has been developing some items that do not need oil, and there is also a reduction in the use of oil.

The inexhaustibility of oil is actually based on the continuous progress of our human exploration and exploitation technology, as long as our technology continues to improve, then the oil will never run out.

There is no inexhaustible oil, but the world's energy resources are scarce, and many countries are using imported oil resources in order to protect their own national energy.

Because mining will cause massive damage to the local environment, and desert mining is not easy.

Hundreds of millions of tons of oil have been found in the desert, enough for humans to use for hundreds of years, mainly because of the higher cost than elsewhere and because of environmental factors.

There are a lot of oil pairs in the desert, and the characters are very good, but if you extract it in the desert, it requires a lot of manpower, material resources and technology, as well as its temperature, and the terrain there is difficult for people to survive there, and it is very difficult to develop.

This is because Japan is now working hard to build a resource-saving and environment-friendly society, so that sustainable development can be achieved.

Because the desert is very dangerous, and there may be maggots in the desert, no, so no one will mine it, because it is very dangerous, and if it is mined, it will cause some damage to the earth.

The desert has detected 3.5 billion tons of oil, enough for human beings for a hundred years, but no one has exploited the reason: this oil reserve area is located in the desert of Turkmenistan, when the equipment is converted, it leads to the ground collapse, the original construction is under the natural gas pothole, after the collapse of the former Soviet Union, the development of this field is completely stagnant, there is no equipment, talent programs, etc. can not be mined, and it is not good to mine it, because of the geographical location, the mining cost is too high.

The earth's oil is extracted all year round, when will it be exhausted? Fifty years later, it was finished. Oil, which we are sure our friends are no strangers to, is called "black gold", known as "industrial blood", is the most precious natural wealth, which is given to mankind by nature.

After mankind enters the industrial age, science and technology may have today's achievements, most of which are oil. Petroleum is an important material basis for the development of human science and technology. At present, many high-tech products manufactured by industrial machinery are still mainly dependent on oil.

If oil is not depleted, it will be a huge blow to the development of human science and technology, so can oil still be depleted? When the energy is gone.

<> Earth's atmosphere is filled with carbon dioxide and almost no oxygen. A part of carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbon dioxide, the rest of carbon dioxide is produced by the reaction of other elements to form carbonates, and the rest of carbon dioxide, like greenhouse gases, warms the earth and thus creates living conditions. The first single-celled organisms to appear on Earth were algae, including a bacterium known as cyanobacteria.

Cyanobacteria absorb carbon dioxide and then convert it into carbon dioxide through solar photosynthesis while releasing oxygen outward. Don't look at the tiny cyanobacteria, the oceans and lakes on land were everywhere in those days, after hundreds of billions of years of unremitting efforts.

To understand that oil does not run out, it is necessary to figure out what the logic of developing oil is. Petroleum is essentially a mixture of alkaloids, naphthenes, aromatics, etc. In addition, the attitude of the scientific community engaged in the formation of oil is not entirely unanimous, with two hypotheses:

One is the bio-oil theory, and the other is oil, not biological, which is more relevant. Petroleum has undergone onshore oil extraction, offshore oil extraction, offshore oil extraction, and deep-sea oil extraction. Now, the technology is already extracting oil fields at depths of 3,000 meters below the water level, but we would like to remind you that this depth is not enough to accommodate the average depth of the Pacific Ocean (4,000 meters), so as long as the profit is sufficient, there is a lot of potential in the future!

Oil, oil, sand and shale oil have entered a range of extractive industries due to high oil prices.

How did the oil, which has been exploited for so many years, come to be, and will it be fully exploited?

How exactly is oil formed? In fact, many netizens are very curious about this question, but so far no one can give a clear answer, only some speculation. One of the most popular theories is that oil is formed from fossilized fossils.

There are a lot of fossils on the earth, because after all, in ancient times, there were still many creatures on the earth. However, due to the changes of the times, many animals could not bear it and became extinct. In this way, the corpses of many ancient creatures were buried on the earth, and after hundreds of millions of years, these corpses slowly turned into fossils.

These fossils, together with the sediment underneath, slowly settled, and finally formed a sedimentary rock, which is the early oil. Many people will be surprised that after all, oil is a liquid and not a solid, but these rocks actually turn into liquids in the end. Because there are many corpses of living things under the bottom of the earth, the oil will be deposited in the rocks after slowly being tempered by high temperature and high pressure underground.

This oil also has a nice name, it is called offshore oil. Because organisms in the ocean can degrade sedimentary rocks, so oil is produced.

However, this is only the inference of scientists, and according to the current human technology, we have not yet been able to prove it. The exact opposite is that oil is made of carbon. It is true that there are many unmined fossils under the earth, but at the same time, there is also a lot of carbon under our belongings.

These same carbons slowly change their form in the environment of high temperature and high pressure in the earth's interior, and eventually have oil.

Oil is a resource that the whole world wants, and we have never stopped extracting oil, but why has oil not been extracted for so many years? In fact, the answer is very simple, the formation of oil does not happen overnight, it takes a long time to form. We really don't have an exact answer as to how oil is formed, but in any case, it must be very slow.

Oil can be extracted. However, with the large-scale exploitation of human beings, oil resources have become scarce, and then the extraction cost is very expensive, and many people are reluctant to extract oil anymore.

It usually takes a long time for oil to form, and every time we may extract some, and after tens of thousands of years of burial, there will be oil formation in that place. As long as there is a substance formed by oil on the earth, then oil will slowly form. Human lifespan is limited, and the time for oil to form is dozens of times longer than that of human life, it is slowly formed, so even if human beings have been extracting and mining oil, as long as the raw materials of oil exist, it will not disappear.

Because as long as a certain amount of time passes, oil will still reappear.
