Reporter Liu Tong and correspondent Zhao Songgang report.
On February 21, the reporter learned from the provincial coalfield geology high-quality development conference today that the Shandong coalfield geological system has vigorously promoted a new round of strategic actions for prospecting breakthroughs, and new progress has been made in energy resource security. In 2023, 9 new mineral fields will be discovered by the Shandong Provincial Coalfield Geology Bureau, and 42 coal resources will be submitted700 million tons, of which 25 were newly recorded200 million tons, equivalent to 42% of the national total.
In 2024, the Provincial Coalfield Geology Bureau will focus on a new round of strategic actions for prospecting breakthroughs. Strengthen cooperation with mining enterprises and oil and gas enterprises, continuously expand coal, unconventional oil and gas and other market areas, strive to obtain more exploration projects along the "Belt and Road", and continue to build the brand of "Shandong Coalfield Geology". Grasp the project in hand, promote the advanced exploration technology system, strive for greater breakthroughs in prospecting in Qihe-Yucheng, Laiwu and Yantai Muping exploration areas, strive to explore the first large-scale iron-rich deposit in Yucheng area, build a 100-million-ton iron-rich ore resource base in Qihe-Yucheng, and expand new prospecting areas to Zibo and Wenshang. Promote the promotion and application of gold exploration technology to Henan, Qinghai and other places.
At the same time, we will focus on the development and utilization of clean energy such as geothermal, explore the cooperation model of "geothermal + finance + industry", strengthen the investigation, evaluation and exploration of geothermal energy, and serve the planning of geothermal resources in advance. Promote the Tengzhou geothermal field survey project with high quality, actively strive for the global promotion of shallow geothermal energy in Jining City, and the substitution of medium and deep geothermal heating in Huimin County, accelerate the application of heat intake without water intake in Dongying, and strive to build demonstration projects. Efforts will be made to promote salt cavern energy storage and gas storage projects inside and outside the province such as Tai'an and Huai'an, and help the construction of a new energy system.
