The Tarim Basin contains 10 billion tons of oil and gas underground, and can be developed into 10,000 acres of fertile soil on the ground

Analysis of oil and gas potential in the Tarim Basin.

The Tarim Basin is the largest inland basin in China, with abundant underground oil and gas reserves. At present, China has proven oil and gas reserves of 17.8 billion tons, of which more than 8 billion tons of oil and natural gas are more than 10 trillion tons. China's onshore oil and gas reserves account for a large proportion and occupy a high position in the world.

The Tarim Basin has unique characteristics of oil and gas reservoirs, and its exploitation technology has high technical difficulty. Just over 6,000 meters** accounts for 83% of the country's resources, as well as 63% of natural gas. These deep oils and gases are expensive to extract at $50 per barrel, much more expensive than shallower wells in the Middle East. The Tarim Basin is a large oil and gas producing country, and oil and gas production is very low, with only 170,000 tons, while oil and gas production is only 089 percentage points, the annual production of oil and gas is around 20 million tons. Such output is limited by both technology and strategic reserves to protect underground oil and gas resources in response to emergencies.

But the Tarim Basin is a natural"Oil and gas treasure pot"There is still a lot of oil and gas potential to be tapped. The oil and gas resources in the Tarim Basin will continue to increase and the cost of exploitation will continue to decrease, and more oil and gas will be obtained. It will strongly support China's economic development and make the Tarim Basin one of China's northwest regions"Poppei"。

Analysis of the feasibility of developing agriculture in the Tarim region.

The Tarim Basin, especially the surrounding areas, still has a large number of terrestrial resources on the ground. The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is rich in alpine ice and snow meltwater and rainfall, providing water sources with an average annual runoff of 40 billion cubic meters for more than 140 rivers in China. The importance of water resources in the Tarim Basin cannot be overstated, with nearly 10 million acres of arable land, more than 20 large and small towns, and 1 million residents all relying on water sources.

The Tarim Basin is the warmest region in China and has unique climatic conditions. This creates good natural conditions for agricultural production in the region. The basin is the birthplace of melon fruits in Xinjiang and an important production area of long-staple cotton. If grain production can continue to develop in the Tarim region, it will have the basic conditions for two crops and three crops a year. At present, water resources are insufficient, but if rivers like the Brahmaputra are brought over and the Gobi Desert is turned into a basin, 150 million mu of land can be added. With enough land, China will be able to better secure food and no longer have to rely on imports every year to sustain itself, as it used to be.

It is known as the northwest region of China"Cornucopia"The Tarim Basin is not only rich in energy resources, but also rich in agricultural resources. The development and utilization of this favorable condition in the Tarim Basin will make greater contributions to China's economic development.

Some understandings and summaries about the Tarim Basin.

The Tarim Basin is rich in underground and surface resources, and plays a pivotal role in China's economic construction. The Tarim Basin is rich in oil, natural gas and oil resources, although the current degree of exploration is still very low, but we have reason to believe that in the future, with the progress of science and technology, the Tarim Basin will become an important guarantee for China's energy security and economic development.

There is still potential for development in the Tarim region that cannot be ignored. Through the rational use of water and land resources in the river basin, the development of high-yield agriculture will provide China with guarantees. In addition, the agricultural products in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River also have a large space for development in the international market, and they also play a certain role in promoting the development of China's agricultural foreign trade.

However, there are still many problems and challenges in order to maximize the development and utilization of oil and gas resources in the Tarim area. First of all, the technology and cost required for oil and gas development are still limited, so continuous investment in R&D and improvement is required. Second, in the process of developing agriculture, efforts should also be made to solve the problems of water shortage and the conversion of cultivated land. Finally, it is also crucial to ensure the sustainable use of resources and not to have too much impact on the ecological environment.

The Tarim Basin is rich in oil and gas and agricultural resources, and has great development potential. Only in this way can we ensure the country's energy security, enhance the comprehensive production capacity of agricultural products, and make greater contributions to the country's economic construction. On this basis, it is necessary to pay attention to the protection of the environment, ensure the sustainable use of resources, and achieve a good cycle of economy and environment. Only in this way can the Tarim Basin become a veritable part of China's northwestern region"A treasure trove"。
