Chapter 791 Offshore Oil Zua

"Captain, this is the latest intelligence we received."

The atmosphere on the blue Atlantic Ocean always seems so tense. When the United States decided to intervene in the Falkland Islands dispute, the U.S. Navy was already on high alert.

At this time, the aircraft carrier USS America was still representing the United States. Captain Harold always had a trance-like feeling. He was tricked by the Soviets last time and let the Soviets escape. Originally, Colonel Harold thought that the Soviets had escaped, but who could have thought that the Soviets ran to the South Atlantic and planned this Argentine counterattack at sea. It was not until the British Navy was defeated that the United States discovered the existence of the Soviets.

And now, the United States has decided to intervene. For the US Navy, the main enemy is not the Argentine navy and air force, but the Soviet Union's elusive aircraft carrier formation!

Now, after hearing the latest intelligence, Captain Harold took the information and looked at the satellite photos above, his face changed instantly.

"What's going on?" Harold asked.

"Two hours ago, one of our reconnaissance satellites took this photo when it passed near the Falkland Islands," said Colonel Thomas, commander of the carrier-based aircraft wing. "There are Iraqi and Argentine flags flying on it. It should be the joint oil of Iraq and Argentina."

Offshore oil! Who would have thought that in such a short time, the Soviets had already begun to deploy offshore oil in the submarine oil fields near the Falkland Islands! These Soviets were really quick to intervene in these affairs! Although the flag was Iraqi, the backing of Iraq was definitely the Soviet Union!

This is a satellite image. Only a bird's-eye view can be seen, so the flag cannot be clearly seen. However, this oil tanker had just been fixed and the people on it were raising the flag, so this picture was captured.

"What does this mean?" Harold asked, "Does it mean that the Soviet Union and Argentina have officially started exchanges?"

The oil near the Falkland Islands has been explored a long time ago, but it has never been developed because the sovereignty issue is unclear and the UK does not want to provoke Argentina, so the oil here has remained like this.

And now, the establishment of the offshore oil platform means that official exploitation has begun!

"Yes, the White House has just confirmed that just half an hour ago, the Iraqi oil minister came to Argentina and signed an oil exploration agreement with Argentina. According to this agreement, both parties contributed 50% each to establish the Falkland Islands Offshore Oil Company, which specializes in exploiting offshore oil fields near the Falkland Islands." Thomas said: "Now, the White House is preparing to issue a stern statement condemning Iraq and Argentina's actions, which are completely illegal."

The exploitation of nearby oil fields by both sides has internationalized the offshore oil field issue near the Falkland Islands! This has made the United States even more angry, especially since Iraq is now a thorn in the side of the United States! Last time, the United States was defeated in Iraq, with so many people dying, and finally lost the war! And now, it is facing Iraq again!

If it was just Iraq alone, no one would dare to do it even if they were given ten chances. However, Iraq’s backer is the Soviet Union!

"Where does this oil come from?" Harold continued to ask.

Oil, that's not something you can get just by saying something. Building an oil platform from scratch will take at least several months, right?

"It's not clear, it seems to have appeared overnight. However, it is a Soviet research vessel that was heading to Antarctica for scientific research. There is a strong suspicion. If they installed oil equipment in advance and assembled it at a nearby port in Argentina, it should be installed in a few days and then towed over by a tugboat." Thomas continued.

Make it a fact! When they have begun to extract oil at sea, their side will be quite passive. After all, this kind of thing is for civilian use, and there are many people on it. At that time, if the United States directly attacks these, it will be politically passive, especially if it causes large-scale casualties, which will be even more troublesome.

The Soviets really gave us a difficult problem!

"Where is the Soviet aircraft carrier formation? Have we found their location?" Harold continued to ask.

Thomas shook his head. "We have mobilized all the reconnaissance satellites that can be mobilized, but we haven't found anything."

Damn it! Now, everyone has concluded that the Soviets are hiding in that area of ​​water, but they just can't find their traces! This is simply too unbelievable! Moreover, this will make our side more passive. When putting pressure on Argentina, we must always be vigilant against the damn Soviet aircraft carrier formation!

Standing on the bridge, Harold looked down. The deck was bustling with activity. A Tomcat fighter was being catapulted from the deck and taking off. This spectacular scene made everyone who saw it sigh in admiration.

In the past, Harold had flown a Tomcat fighter, and he once thought that this was the most powerful naval carrier-based aircraft in the world, but now, they also have to guard against the more advanced Su-27 carrier-based aircraft!

This ocean belongs to the United States! Back then, the German wolf packs were wreaking havoc across the Atlantic Ocean, but the United States still crushed the German submarine warfare! No one can take the sea power away from the Americans!

Thinking of this, Harold regained his firm faith.

"Cruise, are you okay?" On the rippling blue sea, a man-made building is standing tall. It is a huge building made of oil and steel. At this moment, the legs below have extended to the bottom of the sea and are tightly fixed. No matter what kind of wind and waves there are on the sea, it can stay stable.

And now, a new equipment was being installed and debugged. Listening to what the people below said, Cruise above shouted loudly: "Okay, let's try it!" As he said that, Cruise climbed down from the huge white house on the top.

In a room below, a device was ready. After it was turned on, a rotating bright line soon appeared on the circular screen.

"Well, that's right. This search radar is working properly. It can search the sea within 50 kilometers and air targets within 200 kilometers." Cruz said, "In order to keep it confidential, we will turn it off first and turn it on when needed."

Offshore oil, of course, is not purely for civilian use! After all, without any exploration, they directly found the right location and sank. If they can get oil, they are just lucky! These oils were established so quickly, in addition to confirming the project of cooperation between the two sides in oil exploration, more importantly, it is to monitor the surrounding sea and air and provide a sharper eye!
