BEIJING, Dec. 21 (Xinhua) — China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) announced Sunday that the cumulative energy output of the Bohai Oilfields, China's largest offshore crude oil production base, will exceed 40 million tonnes of oil and gas equivalent in 2025, hitting a new historical high and providing a strong guarantee for the country's energy security and high-quality socio-economic development.

The Bohai oilfields are China's largest and most productive offshore oil field, currently comprising over 60 operating oil and gas fields and over 200 production facilities, with a combined crude oil production volume exceeding 600 million tonnes. Over the past five years, the average annual growth in oil and gas production here has been 5 percent, while the increase in crude oil production has accounted for nearly 40 percent of the country's overall growth in this area.

Officials from CNOOC's Tianjin branch said that the construction of production facilities in the Bohai Oilfields was comprehensively accelerated in 2025, and well drilling activity during this year reached a new historical high, effectively promoting the rapid completion and commissioning of a number of key projects, including oil fields with proven reserves of 100 million tons, including Kengli 10-2 and Bozhong 26-6.

Along with the extensive efforts to expand the production capacity of new oil fields, annual crude oil production from the old fields of the Bohai Oil Fields will exceed 32 million tons in 2025, stabilizing the “baseline” of production.

The Bohai Oilfields are rapidly advancing digital and intelligent transformation, as well as green and low-carbon development. A major breakthrough has been achieved in the localization of key equipment, and the first localized shallow-water subsea production system has been successfully commissioned. The Qinhuangdao 32-6 intelligent oilfield is expanding the capabilities of traditional oil and gas production through technologies such as drone technology and coordinated production and operations. Furthermore, the project to connect the offshore oil field cluster to onshore power has been fully completed: over 80 percent of the oil fields are now connected to onshore power.
