Overview of Hainan Province
Overview of Hainan Province Geographical Location Situated at the southernmost tip of China, Hainan sees Guangdong across the Qiongzhou Strait to the north, Vietnam across theBeibu Bay to the west and Taiwanacross theSouth China Sea to the east. Its neighbors in the South China Sea include the Philippines, Brunei and Malaysia in the southeast and south. The jurisdiction of Hainan covers Hainan Island, theXisha (Paracel) Islands, theZhongsha (Macclesfield) Islands and the Nansha (Spratly) Islands as well as the surrounding maritime areas, making it the largest province in China in terms of area. Hainan covers a land area (mainly including Hainan Island and Xisha, Zhongsha and NanshaIslands) of 35,400 square km (that of Hainan Island reaching 33,900 square km) and has a maritime area of about 2 million square km. With the outline like an oval snow pear, Hainan Island has a total area of 33,900 square km (excluding the satellite islands), the second largest island only next to Taiwan Island. Qiongzhou Strait, located between Hainan Island and Leizhou Peninsula of Guangdong Province is about 18-nautical-mile wide; while Zengmu Ansha in Nansha Islands is the southernmost territory of China. Administrative Divisions By September 2015, Hainan Province had 27 cities and counties (districts), including four prefectural cities, five county-level cities, four counties, six autonomous counties, eight districts, and 21 townships, 175 towns and 22 sub-district offices (totaling 218). Cities at the prefectural level: Haikou, Sanya, Sansha and Danzhou Cities at the county level: Wuzhishan, Wenchang, Qionghai, Wanningand Dongfang Counties: Ding’an, Tunchang, Chengmai and Lingao Autonomous Counties: Baisha Li Autonomous County, Changjiang Li Autonomous County, Ledong Li Autonomous County, Lingshui Li Autonomous County, Baoting Li and Miao Autonomous County and Qiongzhong Li and Miao Autonomous County Population Calculated according to a sample survey on population changes, the birth rate of the province reached 14.57‰, death rate6.00‰, andnatural growth rate8.57‰in 2015. -
The Early-Middle Miocene Submarine Fan System in the Pearl River Mouth Basin, South China Sea

By analyzing the sedimentary processes of submarine fans in SQ21 (SQ21 refers to the 3rd-order sequence with its bottom boundary 21 Ma), a sedimentary model of the sand-rich fans is established and the main factors controlling fan deposition are detailed. The results indicate that from early to middle Miocene the Pearl River Mouth Basin developed seven 3rd-order sequences in all, with each lowstand systems tract (LST) of the sequence corresponding to submarine fans. However, only the fans in SQ13.8 and SQ21 are sand-rich fans, the others being mud-rich fans. The cores reveal that the submarine fans in the Pearl River Mouth Basin developed ¿ve lithofacies (1) mud clast-bearing sandstone, interpreted as channel deposits; (2) typical turbidite sandstones, also interpreted as channel deposits; (3) thin-bedded sandstone and mudstone, interpreted as channel-levee complex deposits; (4) massive sandstones, interpreted as lobe deposits; (5) massive mudstone, interpreted as hemipelagic mud. -

Initial Exploration of a Protection System for Historical and Cultural Towns and Villages in Hainan, China
Structural Studies, Repairs and Maintenance of Heritage Architecture XV 297 INITIAL EXPLORATION OF A PROTECTION SYSTEM FOR HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL TOWNS AND VILLAGES IN HAINAN, CHINA WANG ZHENYU Department of Architecture and Urban Planning, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, China ABSTRACT The long course of Chinese national history runs from a remote source. Since China has a vast territory, different regions formed a variety of regional cultures with different natural environments and era evolutions. Historical and cultural towns and villages not only exist as individual entities, but also as integrated urban and rural settlements and regional cultures. This paper presents the methodologies for the protection of historical towns and villages in the phase of systematic planning in Hainan Province. The research begin with looking at Hainan’s regional culture, adopting the research method of anthropology and regional heritage to retrace the culture of Hainan’s towns and villages, analysing the status quo, and on this basis, building a framework of Hainan historical towns and villages in promotion of its rational protection and development. Keywords: historical and cultural towns and villages, land use, Meso-scale space unit, non-motor- vehicle travel. 1 INTRODUCTION Hainan is a tropical island in southern China with beautiful scenery; its special natural environment has created an exotic culture. Today, most people see Hainan as an international scenic spot; however, less attention is paid to Hainan’s culture and traditions, which, to some extent, results in a lack of cultural construction. Historical and cultural villages and towns are important space carriers of Hainan culture; therefore, the construction of provincial-level historical and cultural towns and villages to protect the historical and cultural heritage of Hainan is essential. -

News Release News Release
News Release July 10, 2002 – For Immediate Release Wenchang First Oil Bolsters Husky Energy’s International Growth Calgary, Alberta – Husky Energy Inc. (Husky) and its co-partner, the China National Offshore Oil Corporation Ltd. (CNOOC), have successfully achieved first oil production from the Wenchang offshore project in the South China Sea. Husky and CNOOC, operator of the Wenchang oil field project (13-1 and 13-2), are producing oil from two fixed platforms and the Wenchang Floating, Production, Storage and Offloading Vessel (FPSO), the “Nanhai Endeavour.” The fields are located in the western Pearl River Mouth Basin, located about 400 kilometres southwest of Hong Kong and 140 kilometres east of Hainan Island. “The Wenchang project proceeded on schedule and on budget as anticipated by Husky,” said Mr. John C.S. Lau, President and Chief Executive Officer of Husky. “Cash flow from this project will support exploration activities for block 39-05, which is adjacent to this existing development project, as well as contribute to our other growth strategies in the area.” Husky has a 40 percent working interest in the Wenchang 13-1 and 13-2 fields, and has estimated proved reserves of 83 million barrels. The field peak production is projected to be 50,000 barrels of oil per day. Husky’s share of production from Wenchang is expected to average 8,000 barrels of oil per day in 2002 and 20,000 barrels of oil per day at peak production. Husky estimates the total development cost to be US$327 million, and estimates operating costs during peak production to be approximately US$2 per barrel.
