曾经，西方的石油专家几乎一致认为，中国的石油资源并不丰富，甚至有一种普遍的论调——"中国贫油论"，这被视为无法撼动的事实。他们坚信，只有海 相地层才具备生成石油的条件，而中国的地质大多以陆相地层为主，因此无法产出大量的石油。基于这种思维，西方的学者和能源专家们对中国的石油勘探 工作并不看好，认为即使开展，也难有突破。 然而，历史的车轮并没有遵循他们的预期。1959年，黑龙江大庆油田的成功喷油，完全打破了这种观念。这一历史性的发现不仅震动了中国，也让国际社会 对中国的石油潜力产生了新的认识。随后的几十年里，中国石油产业的迅速崛起，证明了这些西方学者的预言并不准确，甚至是完全错误的。 实际上，大庆油田的发现不过是中国石油产业发展的开始。到了2012年，中国成功在南海进行深水钻探，正式进入了世界超深水钻探的行列。紧接着，2024 年，中国不仅在塔里木盆地成功钻探出了亚洲第一口万米深井，还在国际石油市场上表现突出，成功中标了伊拉克的七项油气开发项目，彰显了中国在全球 石油产业中的技术实力和竞争力。 回望过去，20世纪二三十年代，西方对于中国石油资源的认知几乎为零。那时，西方的石油地质学家坚信，只有海洋环境中的沉积层才 ...
