作为全球最大的原油进口国，中国正在加大超深油气井的钻探力度。所谓超深井，即深度超过3.5英里的油井和气井。
China is expanding its efforts to drill ultra-deep oil and gas wells — defined as more than three-and-a-half miles deep — as the world’s largest crude importer steps up domestic exploration.
据《南华早报》报道，与美国类似，中国在2025年也创下了油气产量的新纪录；今年中国更是加快了勘探步伐，旨在规避全球能源市场因战争带来的波动风险，这也是北京多元化能源战略的一部分。
Like the US, China also broke oil and gas production records in 2025, though it has hastened its efforts this year in a bid to shield itself from war-related vicissitudes in global energy markets, The South China Morning Post reported, reflecting one prong of Beijing’s variegated energy approach.
有分析指出，中国拥有庞大的石油储备、陆上输油管道、将煤炭转化为化工产品的先进技术，以及对绿色技术的积极应用，这些优势赋予了北京对周边岛国的重要战略影响力，而这些岛国至今仍严重依赖能源进口。——布伦丹·鲁贝里
China’s “enormous oil stockpiles, overland pipelines, new technologies to convert coal to chemicals, and embrace of green technologies have given Beijing strategic leverage” over its island neighbors, which remain cripplingly dependent on imported energy, Semafor’s China columnist argued. — Brendan Ruberry
