> China’s Hade-Fuman oil field, on the northern edge of the Taklimakan Desert in Xinjiang, has produced more than 26 million tonnes of oil and gas from reservoirs deeper than 6,000 meters, CNPC said. A recent core recovered from 8,080 meters marks China’s first sample taken from beyond 8,000 meters in the northwestern Tarim Basin.
