Who discovered Daqing Oilfield?

Daqing Oilfield was not discovered by someone, but by China Petroleum Exploration Team in Songliao Basin 1959 in Northeast China, which was discovered by many professions, teams and teams. They found industrial oil flow in continental deposits, which was the anniversary of National Day 10, so this oilfield was named "Anniversary". The discovery of Daqing Oilfield broke the statement that China is an oil-poor country.

They cooperate with each other through various means and disciplines, comprehensively analyze and verify each other. This comprehensive achievement was completed in 196 1. The main participants are Li Siguang and Huang from the Ministry of Geology, Zhang and Yang from the Ministry of Petroleum Industry, and Zhang Wenyou from China Academy of Sciences.

Importance of Discovery in Daqing Oilfield

1, the development of Daqing Oilfield has greatly improved the crude oil production. In the month of 1963 and 12, Zhou Enlai can finally proudly announce that China can basically meet its own demand for oil, and the era when China people used "foreign oil" will soon be gone forever. The earth science work during the annual oil field discovery is a comprehensive scientific research project, which won the first prize of the National Natural Science Award in 1982.

2. It took only four years from the geological survey in autumn of 1955 to the oil production in songji No.3 well on September 26th, 959. Then it took one year and three months to find out the oil field and initially calculate the geological reserves. High-speed and high-level acquisition of large oil fields, the exploration speed and efficiency rank first in the world.

In the process of exploration, a lot of scientific research work has been carried out, mainly including geotectonics, structural geology, lithofacies palaeogeography, sedimentary petrology, paleontology, geophysics, geochemistry and petroleum geology.

Through these special studies and comprehensive research of applied geoscience, the structural outline, geological structure and general distribution of oil and gas resources in Songliao Basin have been found out, from which Daqing Oilfield has been found.

3. This great achievement has changed the layout of China petroleum industry, which is of great significance to the development of national economy. With the development of oil fields, it is proved in geological theory that large oil and gas fields can also be found in continental basins, which has important theoretical guiding significance for oil exploration in eastern China.
