Sorry, this huge oilfield with reserves of more than 685 million tons is currently unavailable.

For one reason, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Sea, the sea area extending from the island of Tortuga to 200 nautical miles is an exclusive economic zone belonging to the government and government of Haiti.

The Haitian government has sovereign rights and other jurisdictional rights over the natural resources in this region and the right to take certain measures to that end.

的 The oil field located dozens of nautical miles northeast of Tortuga Island is located in the exclusive economic zone of Haiti government.

Chen Rui spent US $ 77.81 million on the island to purchase the ownership of 78.12 square kilometers of sparsely populated eastern part of Tortuga Island, as well as the development of tourism resources and fishery resources in coastal areas that do not extend more than 10 nautical miles. The right to exploit natural resources such as oil and petroleum is not included.

That is, oil exploration rights and oil field exploration rights also belong to Haiti government.

Chen Rui wants to develop this oil field.

There are two ways.

First, apply to the Haitian government and government for oil exploration and exploitation rights in this area.

However, if this is done, the Haitian government and the government will impose various restrictions on the exploration of oil and the exploitation of oil fields. For example, the period of exploitation, generally 30 years or less, and restrictions on oil production technology.

Secondly, in addition to paying a large amount of oil exploration license fees and concession rights to the Haitian government, this value may be 10 million dollars or tens of millions of dollars. Moreover, after the oil is released, Chen Rui also pays to Haiti's government and government have a huge sum of oil sharing fees. This sharing rate usually reaches more than 50%. If the oil field produces tens of millions of tons of oil annually, this share will reach hundreds of millions of dollars.

If it is determined that it is a gigantic oilfield with reserves of more than 685 million tons, and even greater reserves, it is difficult for Chen Rui to maintain his own interest in the oilfield with the current strength of Chen Rui.

For example, Haitian government and government will nationalize oil fields.

This kind of thing is very likely to happen, and its neighbors are good examples of it.

In 1936, Bolivia became the first country to take foreign oil companies operating in the country as state-owned. After two years, Mexico forcibly nationalized all foreign oil companies in the country.

With the development of the national independence and independence movement, nationalization spread rapidly throughout Latin America. Countries in Latin America, such as Venezuela, Argentina, Ecuador, Trinidad, and Tobago, have joined the oil nationalization team.

Even in modern times, in March 2006, Venezuelan government and government announced the abolition of all oil development contracts signed with foreign oil companies in the 1990s. In May of the same year, Bolivian President Morales signed a summer decree, announcing the nationalization of his country's oil and gas resources.

The second method is to obtain the sovereignty of Tortuga Island, including 180+ square kilometers of territory, extending the territorial sea sovereignty of 12 nautical miles, and extending the territorial sea baseline to a contiguous zone of 12 nautical miles. 200 nautical miles of exclusive economic zone and continental shelf as a natural extension of its land territory.

In the exclusive economic zone, sovereign rights and other jurisdictional rights over the natural resources of the area can be enjoyed.

怎么 How is it possible to obtain the territorial sovereignty of a sovereign state?

想法 This idea sounds like a night talk.

This is not the age of war. I have defeated you. I can force you to cede some territory to me.

You must know that one of the constitutional provisions of every sovereign state is that the territory is sacred and indivisible.

Many times, a large-scale local war may erupt between two countries fighting for the sovereignty of a small territory or an island.

For example, in order to recapture 28 islands in the South and Sand Islands that were successively occupied by Vietnam, China fought a Sino-Vietnamese naval battle with Vietnam.

Although the sale of territorial sovereignty may sound like a night talk, in the history of the world, the sale of territory is not without precedent.

In 1803, Napoleon sold the Louisiana area of ​​about 2.6 million square kilometers to the United States for 80 million francs.

In 1867, Tsarist Russia sold more than 1.5 million square kilometers of the Alaska Peninsula and its surrounding Aleutian Islands to the United States for $ 7.2 million. It is equivalent to USD 4.74 per square kilometer, becoming the largest and cheapest transaction in the history of land transactions in the world.

算 Even in modern times, Venezuela's pillar industries have been hit hard by the plunge in oil prices, so much that it owes China $ 50 billion in payments.

Venezuelan finance minister visits China to discuss solutions to problems and hope to get more money from China. It is reported that Venezuela hopes to use a small island of about 64 square kilometers in the Caribbean Antilles to transfer to China To offset China's 50 billion US dollars in arrears, UU read the book www.uukanshu.com and again paid 10 billion US dollars.

In the same scene, Chen Rui bought the Tortoga Island from the Haidian government and the government to have operable space.

In fact, the island of Tortuga has a precedent in Haiti's history of being sold, along with sovereignty.

In 1971, Don Pierreson and the Government of Haiti submitted a contract to obtain a concession on Tortuga Island for 99 years in an attempt to establish the Free Port of Tortuga.

The so-called 99-year concession right can refer to the British lease of Hong Kong from the Qing government and government for 99 years.

Moreover, there are many favorable factors that will cause Haiti government to sell Tortuga Island.

First, Haiti is one of the poorest countries in the world and one of the least developed countries. The economy is dominated by agriculture, is extremely backward, and the unemployment rate is extremely high. Two-thirds of these workers do not have fixed jobs.

A sky-high island sale fee that may reach more than 10 billion U.S. dollars is a huge amount of money for Haiti ’s government and government. Development and the improvement of people's living standards have a very important role to play.
