Unconventional GasAccelerat ion of the development and ut i l izat ion of
unconventional gas is of great strategic significance for
energy structure optimization and energy supply guarantee.
The Company tracked and researched the new development
trend of unconventional gas in the whole world, meanwhile,
based on the development idea of “develop CBM, tackle
tight gas, explore shale gas”, the Company insisted on the
principle of “integration of exploration and development,
integration of production and sales, integration of self-
operation and external cooperation, integration of tight gas
and CBM” to promote the exploration and development of
unconventional gas.
Relying on the technology advancement, the Company
continued to intensify exploration and development,
accelerated the development of unconventional gas industry
and strived to create a new growth potential. Following
the guideline of “focusing on the key blocks to explore
and invest”, the domestic unconventional exploration was
focused on tight gas, and the new bed series exploration has
made breakthroughs in new zones. The tight gas reserves
and production was increased, CBM production was
stabilized and accelerated, the unconventional gas output
continued to grow. Part of the well exploration and production
integration in Linxing tight gas pilot test zone was advanced
where exploration, fracture and operation were realized in the
same year, and the daily output of wells in operation reached
over 200,000 m3, forming a rapid operation model where
a combination of pipe gas sale, LNG sale and medium-
pressure tank wagon is seen, which accumulated benefiting
experience for the economic and high-efficiency exploration
and development of tight gas. Notable results were also

GLOSSARY
Drilling Platform
Offshore drilling platforms are marine structures used mainly for drilling exploratory wells. Such platforms, generally divided
into mobile and fixed platforms, are essential for offshore oil & gas exploration and development operations and house drilling,
power, communications, navigation and other equipment, as well as lifesaving and accommodation facilities.
Heavy Oil
Heavy oil is highly viscous crude oil that contains a relatively high level of asphaltenes and resins. This usually refers to those
with ground densities greater than 0.943 and underground viscosities greater than 50 centipoises.
Oil Reservoir
This is the smallest unit for the storage of oil. Oil reservoir layer or oil layer in short refers to the porous strata for the storage of
oil. Not every part of an oil layer will contain oil. Oil reservoir refers to those independent oil-containing areas within an oil layer.
Exploratory Well
Exploratory wells refer to wells drilled within an oil or gas field for acquiring the necessary geological data to determine the
existence, delineate the boundaries, and perform industrial evaluations of oil or gas reservoirs. Those drilled during the
exploration phase can be further divided into prospecting, preliminary exploration and detailed exploration wells.
Adjustment Well
Adjustment wells refer to scattered or clustered wells drilled, in addition to existing well clusters, for improving the development
of oilfields.
Well Logging
Well logging usually refers to geophysical well loggings, in which different forms of well loggers made based on electrical,
magnetic, acoustic, thermal, nuclear and other physical principles, enter wells through the use of well logging cables, to allow
the ground electrical measuring instruments to record continuously along the well bore the various parameters that change
with changes in depth. Underground rock formations, including oil, gas, water, and coal layers and metal deposits, can then be
identified through curves representing these parameters.
Fracking
Fracking, also known as hydraulic fracturing, refers to a technique used to create fractures in the oil layer using hydraulic
pressure. The process involves the use of a fracking device, to inject a large volume of viscous fluid under high pressure into the
oil layer and then fill the resulting fractures with proppants such as quartz sand to increase the permeability of the oil layer and
in turn, increase the amount of water injected or oil produced.

CNOOC 2016 ANNUAL REPORT GLOSSARY
Oil Spill Response
Oil spill response is the formulation of plans and adoption of measures to control and prevent oil spills and reduce pollution
damage, based on the environment and resources in the potential spill sources and waters within the designated sea areas.
This sees common use in offshore oil exploration and development activities.
LNG
Liquefied natural gas or LNG in short refers to the liquid that forms when natural gas extracted from gas fields cools to a
low temperature under high pressure after undergoing the fluid and acid removal, drying and distillation processes. LNG is
predominantly methane and is colourless, odourless, non-toxic and non-corrosive.
QHSE
The abbreviation QHSE stands for Quality, Health, Safety and Environmental. Established based on the principles of
compatibility of similarities and complementarity of differences, and on the basis of the ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 standards,
GB/T 28000 family of standards and SY/T 6276 Petroleum and Natural Gas Industries – Health, Safety and Environmental
Management System, the QHSE management framework usually refers to the framework that directs and controls the quality,
health, safety and environmental aspects of an organisation.
Coalbed Methane (CBM)
Coalbed methane, which is a coal-associated mineral resource and considered an unconventional form of natural gas, refers
to a kind of hydrocarbon gas (predominantly methane) found trapped within coal beds, mainly adsorbed to the surface of coal
matrix particles, and partly dispersed in the porosity of coal or dissolved in the coalbed water.
Shale Gas
Shale gas specifically refers to an unconventional form of natural gas found trapped within shale formations.
Tight Gas
Tight gas is an unconventional form of natural gas found in sandstone formations with permeability less than 0.1 millidarcy.
Deepwater Semi-Submersible Drilling Platform
Deepwater semi-submersible drilling platform refers to a semi-submersible drilling platform that can operate in deep waters.
Semi-submersible drilling platform, also known as column-stabilised drilling platform, is a kind of mobile drilling platform with
small waterplane area and a large part of the floating structure submerged under water.
FPSO
FPSO (Floating Production Storage & Offloading), namely floating production storage & offloading device, which is an oil & gas
production device combined with production processing, storage output and livelihood & power supply. Its complex in system
and price are far higher than that in oil tanker with same shipping tons. As an important part for marine oil & gas development
system, FPSO device constitutes a complete set of production system generally with underwater oil production devices, and
becomes a high-tech product among offshore engineering vessels at present.
