<\/span>From the city center of\u00a0 Karamay<\/span><\/a>\u00a0to Karamay Ghost Town<\/span><\/a>\u00a0in Wuerhe District of Karamay City, on the both sides of the 100km National Highway, you will see several sectioned oil fields rife with pumpjacks.<\/p>\n

I was told that there are two kinds of pumpjacks. For thin oil,\u00a0people use\u00a0special steam\u00a0to\u00a0pump out the oil; for thick\u00a0oil, people use water\u00a0to pump out\u00a0oil.\u00a0The jumpjacks for thick oil look smaller than those of the pumpjacks using water for pumping out thin oil.<\/p><\/div>\n

\nAnother factor to differentiate this two kinds of jumpjacks is to see\u00a0the tubes crisscrossing the field. If no tubes around the jumpjacks, then they are pumping water for thin oil. If there are plentiful tubes around, they are jumpjacks for thick oil.<\/div>\n
\nSmaller sized jumpjacks for pumping thick oil using the steam through the tubes fixed above the oilfield.<\/div>\n
