远方，有一座被废弃的小镇
In the distance, there is an abandoned town
在青海腹地的腹地——柴达木，有一座被废弃的小镇，大家管它叫“石油小镇”，其实它的学名叫做“冷湖石油基地”。
In Qaidam, the hinterland of Qinghai Province, there is an abandoned town called "oil town". In fact, its scientific name is "cold lake oil base".
石油小镇位于青海省柴达木盆地北部、靠近与新疆甘肃交界处，距离省会西宁市900多公里，隶属海西州，距离州府德令哈400公里。1958年在这里第一眼勘探钻孔，三天三夜喷出石油800吨，标志着我国四大油田之一的冷湖油田形成。上世纪60-70年代是冷湖油田鼎盛时期，曾经人口多达10万之众，当时小镇被称为“冷湖市”！后来随着石油资源渐渐枯竭，人口也渐渐流出，1991年青海石油管理局撤出，从此“石油小镇”被废弃。
Located in the north of Qaidam Basin in Qinghai Province, near the border with Xinjiang and Gansu, the oil town is more than 900 kilometers away from Xining, the provincial capital. It is subordinate to Haixi Prefecture and 400 kilometers away from Delingha. In 1958, the first exploration borehole was drilled here, and 800 tons of oil was ejected in three days and nights, marking the formation of Lenghu oilfield, one of China's four major oilfields. The 1960s and 1970s were the heyday of Lenghu oilfield, with a population of 100000. At that time, the town was called "Lenghu city"! Later, with the gradual depletion of oil resources and the gradual outflow of population, Qinghai Petroleum Administration withdrew in 1991, and the "oil town" was abandoned.
近十年以来，石油小镇的废墟逐渐演变成为青海旅游的打卡景观，青海方面也有打算将此废墟结合周边雅丹地貌和雪山打造成旅游胜地。2020年8月16日我来到这里，凭吊断垣残壁，想象当年的繁华。也非常赞叹“石油小镇”被废弃的有组织、有计划，所有建筑的梁柱、门窗都被拆走（材料再利用），所有建筑的屋顶都被拆除（片瓦不留），最大程度地确保观光人员的安全。
Over the past decade, the ruins of the oil town have gradually evolved into a clock in landscape for tourism in Qinghai. Qinghai also plans to build the ruins into a tourist attraction combined with the surrounding Yadan landform and snow mountains. On August 16, 2020, I came here to mourn the ruins and imagine the prosperity of that year. He also praised the "oil town" for being abandoned in an organized and planned way. The beams, columns, doors and windows of all buildings were removed (materials were reused), and the roofs of all buildings were removed (no tiles left), so as to ensure the safety of tourists to the greatest extent.
石油小镇，一座因石油而兴起，又因石油枯竭而衰败的城市！
Oil town, a city rising because of oil and declining because of oil depletion!
