World power

In the next 10 years China will invest 800 million yuan for the 21st century, new fuel exploration and study of combustible ice. This is the National Development and Reform Commission report recently disclosed “an overview of China Petroleum and alternative energy development,” be disclosed. It is reported that China will this year in cooperation with Germany, in the northern South China Sea continental slope drilling flammable ice physical samples in order to achieve the zero-flammable ice exploration breakthrough. Experts believe that high international crude oil prices, import volumes of crude oil climbing conditions year after year, this is our country to speed up alternative energy research and development as part of the oil.

from the energy point of view, the ice can be regarded as being highly flammable compressed gas, and combustion produces virtually no harmful pollutants, is a kind of clean energy. At present, 79 countries and regions, found a flammable gas reservoirs of ice, preliminary estimates of the total is equivalent to the world’s known resources of coal, oil, natural gas twice to meet the millennium of mankind’s energy needs.

China Petroleum Planning & Engineering Institute, director of refining, senior engineer Zhang Fuqin told reporters, because 99% of combustible ice reserves are in the sea, so the current domestic combustible ice initial exploration undertaken by the CNOOC. Ministry of Land Resources as early as three years ago started the distribution of gas hydrates resources in the investigation, it is estimated 10 years to complete. The commercial exploitation of gas hydrates will be able to put on the agenda. National Development and Reform Commission’s report pointed out that domestic combustible ice is expected to be carried out in 2010 and 2015 test mining, and the realization of commercial development still has to be a technological breakthrough. And oil, natural gas compared to exploitation and transportation of flammable ice is not easy, and the exploration of these hydrates would cause a series of serious problems in ecology. More and more studies have shown that by natural or human-induced changes in temperature and pressure, can make hydrate decomposition, resulting in a submarine landslide, biological extinction and global warming and other environmental disasters.

Economic and Technical Research Institute of China Petroleum Shan Weiguo, director of marketing research that, while rich in reserves, but combustible ice is still facing many challenges commercial applications. At present the United States and Japan combustible ice exploration costs up to 200 U.S. dollars, equivalent to natural gas at a cost of more than 1 U.S. dollars per cubic meter, with the domestic natural gas price of 1 yuan per cubic meter is too high in comparison. Caused due to the high cost of exploration are too small, there is no scale effect, only when the exploration costs, flammable ice can be truly large-scale application.

可燃冰有待开发技术取得突破

在未来10年中国将投资21世纪，探索新的燃料和可燃冰的研究8.00亿元。这是国家发展和改革委员会最近公布的报告“的中国石油和替代能源发展概述”予以披露。据报道，今年中国将在今年与德国合作，在中国南海北部陆坡Sea钻探可燃冰实物样品，以实现零可燃冰勘探的突破。专家认为，国际高原油价格，原油进口量逐年攀升的条件年，这是我国加快，作为石油的部分替代能源的研究和开发。从能源角度

观点，冰可视为高度易燃压缩气体，几乎没有燃烧产生的有害污染物，是一种清洁能源。目前，79个国家和地区，发现了可燃冰气藏，总额初步估计相当于全球已知煤，石油，天然气资源的两倍，以满足人类千年的能源需求。

中国石油规划总院，炼油主任，高级工程师章夫钦告诉记者，因为99％可燃冰储量的大海，所以目前国内可燃冰的初步勘探，中海油进行。国土资源部早在三年前开始了天然气水合物的分布资源的调查，估计10年才能完成。天然气水合物的商业开发将能够提上议事日程。国家发展和改革委员会的报告指出，国内可燃冰预计将进行2010年和2015年进行试验采矿，以及商业发展的实现仍是一个技术突破。和石油，天然气相比，开采和运输可燃冰是不容易的，而这些水合物勘探会导致对生态的一系列严重问题。越来越多的研究表明，由自然或人为引起的温度和压力的变化，可以使水合物分解，海底滑坡，生物灭绝与全球变暖和其他环境灾害造成的。

经济技术研究院中国石油单卫国市场研究主管认为，虽然储备丰富，但可燃冰的商业应用仍面临许多挑战。目前，美国和日本的可燃冰勘探费用在超过1美元每立方米美元的成本高达200美元，相当于天然气与国内1元，每立方米天然气价格过高，比较。造成由于勘探成本高，规模太小，没有规模效应，只有当勘探费用，可燃冰，才能真正大规模的应用。06.9.28
