◎ 科技日报记者 操秀英9月14日，随着位于我国南海莺歌海的东方1-1气田东南区乐东块开发项目投入生产，我国自主研发的首套深水水下生产系统正式投入使用，标志着我国深水油气开发关键技术装备研制取得重大突破， 对打造自主可控的海洋油气装备体系、保障国家能源安全具有重要意义。深水水下生产系统是开发海洋油气资源的重要技术装备，由水下井口、水下采油树、水下控制系统、水下多功能管汇等多种复杂水下结构物组成，在低温高压的深海环境中搭建起能够有序传输传送海底油气物流、液压和电气控制信号、水下生产设施状态信息的“多向通道”。“深水水下生产系统是挺进深海油气开发综合实力的集中体现，整套系统目前运行状态良好，水下气井产量达到设计目标。” 中国海油海南分公司总工程师刘书杰介绍说，中国海油立足国内相关产业实际，依托国家科技专项，牵头与16家国内企业及高校开展装备研发制造技术攻关，将海南东方气田群待开发边际气藏作为应用目标，推动国产深水水下生产系统成功研发。此前，我国水下生产系统依赖进口，设备应用面临采办周期长、采购价格高、维修保养难等问题，制约着深海油气资源开发。

Tate Reeves, saying the Republican is trying to protect political allies including a former governor.Austin Garrett Smith filed the suit Wednesday and described himself in court papers as “politically powerless.” Smith's suit says Reeves should sue Republican former Gov. Phil Bryant, who was in office when prosecutors say money that was supposed to help some of the poorest people in the U.S. was instead spent on projects pushed by wealthy and well connected people.“Reeves has actively shifted the focus of the MDHS lawsuit away from Bryant, despite overwhelming evidence of Bryant's involvement,” Smith's attorney, Jim Waide, wrote.Reeves press secretary Shelby Wilcher said in response to questions about Smith's lawsuit: “The State of Mississippi is fighting to claw back every single dollar that was misspent in the scandal that occurred before Governor Reeves assumed this office.”The Department of Human Services filed a lawsuit in 2022 against more than two dozen businesses or people, including Smith and retired NFL quarterback Brett Favre. The ongoing suit seeks to recover more than $20 million of the roughly $77 million in welfare money that the state auditor said had been misspent between 2016 and 2019, during Bryant's second term as governor.Auditor Shad White said the misspending included $5 million for one of Favre's pet projects, a volleyball arena at the University of Southern Mississippi. Smith is a nephew of former Mississippi Department of Human Services executive director John Davis.The state's lawsuit says Smith received more than $426,000 of money from the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families Program from 2017 to 2019 for purposes not allowed by the program. It says Smith was paid from “under the guise” of providing services for two nonprofit groups whose leaders had close ties to Davis and Bryant.Smith's lawsuit says that several defendants in the state's lawsuit, including Smith, have “little or no” property they could use to pay any judgment against them.Smith's lawsuit also says Reeves has improperly hired private attorneys to represent the Department of Human Services when that legal work should be done by the state attorney general's office.“Reeves has controlled the MDHS suit in order to advance his own political interests and protect his political allies,” Waide wrote.Reeves is seeking a second term in the Nov. 7 election. The Democratic nominee for governor, Brandon Presley, said Reeves is tainted by the welfare misspending that occurred when Reeves was lieutenant governor and had power to oversee how the Department of Human Services was operating. Presley noted that Reeves had received campaign contributions from central figures in the scandal and that the governor's brother, Todd Reeves, had sent text message to the state auditor asking White to praise Favre.“Tate Reeves is too ethically compromised to lead this investigation,” Presley said Wednesday.Reeves campaign spokesperson Clifton Carroll said in a statement: “It's no surprise that some of the defendants who are being sued by the Reeves administration are unhappy because he is aggressively pursuing this case.”。
