The Qaidam Basin is an intermontane oil and gas basin in northwest China. The dominant field grouping is Qinghai fields, and the main producers include the Gasikule and Huangutou field. Produced crude is transported from Huangutou to the new refinery at Golmud, where a petrochemical complex also consumes a proportion of the basin's gas. Qaidam Basin is now China's fourth largest onshore gas producing region, behind Sichuan, Ordos and Tarim.
Lower oil prices and a call for increased returns from shareholders has caused a subtle shift to occur in the upstream oil and gas industry. This shift is increasing investment opportunities and driving capital discipline.
In this Upstream Oil and Gas Field report you'll find information about participation, exploration, geology, reserves, production, infrastructure, cost, economics and much more.
For potential investors, governments and companies in the oil and gas sector, this report provides an understanding of critical issues at the field level. It will help give you a commercial view of the field and recognise potential benefits and risks.
