In the heart of the South China Sea, about 200 kilometers southwest of Shenzhen, Guangdong province, lies the Enping 15-1 oil drilling platform, Asia's largest offshore oil drilling platform in terms of size.
This state-of-the-art facility not only plays a crucial role in China's energy production but also houses the country's first offshore carbon capture and storage demonstration project. It stands as a testament to human ingenuity, combining resource extraction with environmental sustainability.
