Report on the Development of the Takla Makan Oil Reserve in China

As a director, I would recommend that our company bases its operations at the Takla Makan Oil Reserve in China. This reserve has the potential to thrust China’s economy into a booming state with 3 times as much oil present, as in the US today.

Being a high mountainious area we only need to invest in 3 oil drilling machines, which should be flown over to this area. These machines would serve to drill the oil out of the land. The company needs to have our own expert engineers stationed here to server on a two or three year rotational basis, at this plant. In the course of their term here, they will supervise the smooth functioning of the oil drills and train the local engineers to trouble shoot and do regular maintenance.

China is a huge continent where labour is cheap and plentiful. Therefore, our high costsincurrred in purchasing machinery can be off-set by cheap labour. In addition, our company has been in this field for a long time with established connections and a solid financial standing. As a result of this, it would be easy to procure loans from bank to get the financial backing we need.

After an initial period, of three to five years, we should be able to see our investment bearing fruit. The huge profits that we reap can be redirected as benefits in the form of shares or bonuses to our loyal employees. The company itself will be famous and rich country, too, will benefit.

I therefore strongly advocate that the company considers investing here.
