Chapter 98

Libia, northeast, Sirt Basin.

Geological and petroleum experts from the Third Reich are looking at the working drilling platform in front of them

"Doctor, is it really possible to produce oil this time?"An army colonel looked worried.

The National Defense Forces directly joined the oil exploration plan in Libya. After all, the National Defense Forces will be a big consumer of oil in the future. The

Army's tanks, armored vehicles and trucks, the Navy's warships and submarines , Air Force aircraft consume a lot of oil.

As the Third Reich Army becomes more and more mechanized, the demand for oil is also increasing.

And the Third Reich is seriously short of oil.

Even the Third Reich The Three Reichs have tried every means to purchase oil from abroad and establish a national oil reserve system. But even this will only treat the symptoms rather than the root cause.

Unless the Third Reich can acquire a large oil field that can mine five million dollars a year tons of oil, which may be able to meet the needs of the Third Reich.

Of course, the oil fields in Libya are far away from the Third Reich's mainland. However, as long as the oil fields can be found here, the Third Reich's army will be confident to defend it.

"Colonel, we should be able to do it this time. After several previous drillings, we have determined the approximate location of the oil field. If oil is successfully produced this time, we can be sure that we have found a large oil field. If things go wrong, it will become a giant oil field."Dr. Scott looked excited.

"Giant oil field? How many reserves are there?"Army Colonel Daniel also became excited.

"A conservative estimate is that the reserves should be more than 500 million tons. If you are lucky, it is entirely possible to exceed one billion tons." Dr. Scott said

"A billion tons? Oh, God! If this oil field really has so much oil, then the Third Reich will never be short of oil again! We have enough oil to develop the economy and meet the consumption of the military and people's livelihood. exclaimed Colonel Daniel

"Colonel, nothing can be determined until the oil is drilled. However, I think there should be no problem."Dr. Scott is obviously confident. He believes that this time it should be 100% sure.

Colonel Daniel nodded repeatedly:"God bless the Third Reich! We will definitely find oil successfully!"

"Yes, God will definitely bless the Third Reich. In other words, Your Excellency has long been confident. The construction of the northern pier is already accelerating, and it will be put into use in two months at most. At that time, a large amount of oil extraction equipment will be shipped. The laying of the pipeline will also be completed within three months. Your Excellency in power must also be confident, so you will carry out these constructions in advance." Dr. Scott said

"Yes, the ruling Excellency must be right, he has never made a mistake!"Colonel Daniel is obviously also an admirer.

Dr. Scott smiled. He has worked with Dan for a long time, so he naturally understands this colleague's admiration for His Majesty the Governor.

In fact, it is not just Daniel who worships the Governor. Including Dr. Scott, he is also an admirer of the Reign. It’s just that he is not as crazy as Colonel Daniel. It can even be said that countless citizens throughout the empire are admirers of the Reign. They all believe that the Reign can definitely lead the Third Reich. Go strong

"The oil is out, the oil is out!"Suddenly, there was a shout from the drilling platform.

Dr. Scott and Colonel Daniel rushed out immediately.

Black oil was spurting out from the drilling mouth.

"Haha, great, we succeeded, let’s test it now!" Dr. Scott laughed.

"I'll send a telegram to Bolin right away!"Colonel Daniel was equally impatient.

"Colonel, wait a minute, we need to calculate the reserves of the oil field. You'd better send the telegram then. Otherwise, you will run again"

"Okay, Doc, hurry up!"Colonel Daniel had no choice but to suppress his excitement.

Soon, after preliminary calculations, they really discovered a giant oil field.

Even by conservative estimates, the oil field's reserves were more than one billion tons.

This made the entire exploration team cheer.

Everyone is very clear about how important oil is to the Third Reich. Once the oil here is mined, it will make the Third Reich no longer choked by a lack of oil.

After getting the results, Colonel Daniel A report was made to the country as soon as possible.

The National Defense Force, which had been closely following this matter, was even more shocked after learning that it had indeed found an oil field in Libya, and that it was a giant oil field with reserves of one billion tons. surprise

"Your Majesty the Consul is right. Does your Majesty the Consul really have God’s guidance? Otherwise, how would your Excellency know that there is oil in the Sirt Basin? In addition, infrastructure construction was carried out in advance against all objections."Marshal Bromberg couldn't help but have such thoughts in his mind.

This also caused his attitude towards Hess to further change, and he became more loyal to Hess.

"Your Excellency, there is good news from Libya. We have found a giant oil field in the Sirte Basin, and the reserves are conservatively estimated to be more than one billion tons."Marshal Bromberg said

"Ha ha! Great, let me just say there is oil there."Hess laughed loudly, and the heart he had been holding finally returned to his stomach.

"Now that the oil field has been found, immediately send people to prepare for extraction. In half a year, the oil extracted from Libya will be transported back to the country!" Hess ordered

"Yes, Your Excellency. Bromberg nodded.

"In addition, the laying of ports and pipelines will be accelerated. We strive to increase the oil production there to 10 million tons per year next year."Hess then ordered.

If the production can reach 10 million tons per year, then all the oil consumption of the Third Reich can be satisfied.

"Okay, Your Excellency."Marshal Bromberg replied.

Although this is a bit difficult and requires a huge investment.

But if we can get so much oil, it will be worth it.

"By the way, let the exploration stop. Now that a giant oil field has been found, that is enough for the time being. There is no need to spend money looking for other oil fields. After all, the oil fields are too far away from us. What's more, it is still the territory of Caesar's Kingdom."Hess said.

Marshal Bromberg nodded, he understood what Hess meant._Feilu reminds you: three things about reading - collection, recommendation,
