In order to further implement the "State Council's Decision on Strengthening Geological Work" (hereinafter referred to as the "Decision"), comprehensively strengthen the management of the geological survey industry, and promote the reform and development of geological work, the Department of Geological Survey organized by the China Mining Federation of Geological Survey Association, the Ministry of Information Center and the Institute of Economic Research and other relevant personnel composed of a research group on 22nd to 27th May 2007 to the Jiangsu Province to carry out a research. Focused on the investigation of the basic situation of the reform and development of geological exploration units in recent years, the basic experience and effectiveness of the current situation of the geological exploration team and the existing problems, the research situation and experience are reported as follows.
One, the basic situation of the research
In order to do a good job of research, the research group before the departure of the research made careful preparations, developed a detailed research plan and research outline, formulated a focus on the research of the grass-roots units and content, the design of the questionnaire, and the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Land and Resources, Jiangsu Province, Bureau of Land Exploration, East China Nonferrous Geological Survey Bureau and the Jiangsu Provincial Ground Survey Institute, the Bureau of Ground Exploration in Jiangsu Province, Jiangsu Province, the four teams and East China Nonferrous Geological Survey Bureau 814 team and so on, there are a lot of people who have the right to know. Geological Survey Bureau 814 team and other representative geological team, took a forum, questionnaire survey and field visits and other ways to carry out the research, the research team went deep into the grassroots, to understand the different types of geological survey team in recent years, especially after the introduction of the "Decision", the reform and development of the basic situation, the main achievements, the accumulation of the main experience, the existence of the major problems, listen to the field of the first-line geologists' voices.
In this research, a more in-depth understanding of the Jiangsu Province Geological Survey Bureau and East China Nonferrous Geological Survey Bureau of the basic situation of reform and development of geological exploration team and the next step in the vision. On the basis of the research of the two bureaus, focusing on in-depth investigation of the fourth geological brigade of Jiangsu Geological Survey Bureau and East China Nonferrous Geological Survey Bureau 814 geological brigade, and visited the Jiangsu Provincial Geological Survey Research Institute. Through the point-to-point research, we understood the basic idea of the reform and development of the geological exploration units, the main measures to strengthen the geological work, visited the working and living environment of the geological team, and had close contact with the geological exploration grass-roots units and the field front-line geological investigators. On the whole, after the promulgation of the Decision, the geological exploration units further clarified the tasks and directions of geological work, unified their understanding, strengthened their confidence and invigorated their spirit. Geological work is coming out of the trough, the multifunctional role of geological work is coming out, presenting a flourishing scene, the work task is getting fuller and fuller, the working environment is improving, the living treatment is improving, and the role in the local economic development is increasing. However, the development of different nature of geological exploration units is very unbalanced, the Bureau and the team are **** the same reflect the geological exploration team there are still many urgent problems, such as the shortage of housing, lack of talent, lack of capital, old and backward technology and equipment and other issues, I hope that the state and local governments to stabilize the reform and development of the geological exploration team of preferential policies and to strengthen the implementation of the inspection work, for the reform and development of the geological exploration unit to create a more relaxed external environment. External environment.
The main experience of the reform and development of Jiangsu geological exploration unit
Jiangsu province geological exploration unit actively adapts to the needs of the development of the situation, and seize the opportunity to deepen the reform, steady development, geological exploration industry has shown an unprecedented momentum of good development.
Jiangsu Geological Survey Bureau and non-ferrous geological survey bureau of different specific circumstances, the reform and development practices adopted are not exactly the same, but there are five **** the same point: First, adhere to the demand-oriented, set up the concept of large geological, give full play to the multi-functional role of geological work as the basis of the resources, the environmental foundation and the basis of the project, integration into the local economy, and to grow the geological prospecting industry; Second, adhere to the separation of the enterprise, Secondly, we adhere to the separation of enterprises and focus on transforming the internal operation mechanism and implementing enterprise management according to local conditions; thirdly, we have established the strategic direction of vigorously developing the main business of geological exploration, and subject to the limitations of geological prospecting conditions in this province, in order to give full play to our own advantages in mineral exploration, we are trying to implement the strengthening of geological prospecting outside of the province and abroad, and we are striving to provide mineral resources guarantee for the construction of a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way; fourthly, we have been actively seeking the support of the local government's funds and policies, seizing the opportunities and intensifying the reform work. Fourthly, we are actively striving for the support of local government funds and policies, seizing the opportunity to increase the reform work; fifthly, we are correctly handling the relationship between reform, development and stability, and striving to build a harmonious geological exploration team. As a result, these two bureaus are playing a better multi-functional role in geological work, the economic development of geological exploration is relatively fast, the geological team is stable, and they are creating their own experience of reform and development.
(I) the initial construction of public welfare geological team, full of vigor and vitality
Jiangsu Province, established under the Department of Land and Resources of the Institute of Geological Survey, in the former Department of Geological Survey (District Survey Team), Mineral Company and the test on the basis of the formation of entity institutions - Geological Survey Research Institute. The establishment of GIS is in full accordance with the guideline of "elite + modernization", supported by "first-class talents, high-tech and standardized management", simulating the mode of entrepreneurial management, and implementing separate operation and classification management for the geological work in the budget and the development and management work, striving to create an internal competition mechanism, and making it possible for the geological work to be carried out in a separate entity. In order to create an internal competition mechanism, the geological work and the development and operation work are coordinated with each other, and **** the same development. Around this idea and then internal adjustments and reforms, and gradually set up a competent and efficient local geological field army team, for the sustainable development of Jiangsu's economy to provide basic guarantees.
In the development and reform, Jiangsu Provincial Geological Survey Institute's main practices: First, increase the technological transformation and innovation, "Tenth Five-Year" period invested 40 million yuan for equipment upgrading to improve market competitiveness; second is to establish a new idea of construction of human resources projects to attract talented people and encourage innovation of scientific and technological personnel to establish the first national provincial geological survey institute doctoral degree program. The first provincial postdoctoral research station of the National Academy of Geological Survey, during the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" period to carry out excellent scientific and technological workers award, the maximum amount of 120,000 yuan; Third, to establish a "brand" awareness, and constantly improve the visibility, influence and competitiveness. The implementation of the "four major projects", namely, geological survey and monitoring of ecological environment in Jiangsu Province, Jiangsu Province, geothermal resources survey and development of applied research projects, Nanjing Geological Museum expansion project, Jiangsu Province, inorganic materials, professional testing service center construction project, to enhance the competitiveness of the Institute of major projects and the development of vitality.
It is understood that the main advantage of the Jiangsu Provincial Geological Survey Institute under the Department of Land and Resources is that it is more closely linked to the management of land and resources, and is able to provide timely and effective services and support for the management of land and resources.
(2) Integration into the local economy, expanding the geological market
Jiangsu, as an economically developed province in the east of China, the focus of geological work has changed a lot, how to give full play to the advantages of geology, to adapt to the needs of economic and social development, and as soon as possible to integrate into the local economy, is a generalized problem. The Fourth Geological Brigade of Jiangsu Geological Survey Bureau is an example. Founded in 1958, the Fourth Geological Brigade of Jiangsu Geological Exploration Bureau, mainly engaged in geological prospecting, in the past 30 years, was once one of the most remarkable geological teams in Jiangsu Province, won the title of national geological prospecting meritorious unit. 90s of the 20th century, the unit gradually to the market, experienced a downturn, in the most difficult in 1997 and 1998, the unit's bank accounts In the most difficult years of 1997 and 1998, the unit's bank account was negative, and the employees' salaries were paid month by month by borrowing from all over the world. Until after 2000, the fourth team actively looked for a way that suited the market needs and could give full play to the geological advantages, and initially practiced the road of integrating into the regional economy, serving the local construction, and expanding the economy of geocaching in a city like Suzhou, where the economy is developed but the resources are scarce and the potential of mining development is lacking, and formed the geological industry, including geochemical disaster assessment, pile testing, design and consulting, with the support of surveying, mapping and surveying, to internally strengthen the quality, and internally strengthen the quality of geological industry. Geological industry, internal quality, external image, the implementation of expanding the market, science and technology to strengthen the team, talent team, culture, and other strategies, the four teams have since boarded the development of the express train.
The development history of the four teams shows that economic and social development cannot be separated from the support of geological work, as long as the establishment of a large geological concept, close to the actual, active service, there will be a place for the work, geological exploration units will realize their own value, and get the correct evaluation of the local government and the community and the sincere welcome. Survival and development in economically developed areas, first of all, to seize the opportunity, good grasp of opportunities, do not let the fleeting opportunity to slip through easily; second is to establish a high degree of social responsibility, will be the highest quality and integrity; third is to think of the local thought, urgent local urgency, do the local needs to meet the needs of the community, the customer's wishes for the only purpose of business services and duties incumbent upon, to create a good social image; fourth is to give full play to the geological and mining units, and will be correctly evaluated by the local government and the community and sincerely welcome. The fourth is to give full play to the advantages of the mining workers who are capable of fighting well and have a tough style and the geological exploration units with strong construction strength and reliable technical quality.
(3) play advantage, grasp the opportunity to seek development
Relying on the technical advantages of the geological team, timely adjustment of the focus and direction, and seek rapid development, which is another way of development of the geological exploration team, East China Nonferrous Geological Exploration Bureau 814 team is a typical. East China Nonferrous Metals Geological Survey Bureau 814 team, founded in 1956, is a professional team engaged in geophysical, geochemical exploration, mapping engineering, is a key team of nonferrous system geological survey. After the mid-1980s, the solid mineral exploration industry went into the doldrums, and the task of finding metal ores was relatively small and difficult. However, Team 814 gave full play to its technical advantages, adjusted its work focus in a timely manner, and successfully entered the oil market by taking advantage of its expertise in physical and chemical exploration; in the fierce market competition, it took possession of the market with the spirit of positive development; its technology and equipment were constantly updated, and it developed the market with a pragmatic style.
Since 1986 when it first undertook the Qinghai Oilfield Qaidam Basin South Jishan high-precision gravity exploration project, Team 814 has carried out oil and gas physical and chemical exploration in more than 10 oilfields in more than 20 provinces (districts), including Qinghai, Xinjiang, Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning, Inner Mongolia, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Gansu, Hunan, Hubei, Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou, Anhui, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Fujian, and Jiangsu. Physical and chemical exploration. The total construction area of physical and chemical exploration is 100,000 square kilometers, and the profile is tens of thousands of kilometers, and the underground pipeline detection area of the oil field is 55 square kilometers. 2005 is also the first year that the company undertook and successfully completed the overseas project - Mongolia Tamchag Heavy Magnetic Exploration Project, which has laid a solid foundation for the further expansion of the foreign market.
Team 814 can now provide high-quality and high-efficiency "data collection, physical nature of the research, data processing, results of the interpretation of the" four-in-one production and technical services. From weak to strong, the team has made a way to give full play to geotechnical services and suitable for its own development, and has become a leader in the field of physical and chemical exploration of oil and gas in China.
(4) pay attention to internal mechanism improvement, the establishment of modern management system
In the reform and development of geological exploration team, we reached *** knowledge: adhere to the stability of the overriding priority, to the management of efficiency. In the management reform, the main thing is to further improve and strengthen the accountability management, asset management, distribution management, safety management, grass-roots management and so on. As a result, the geological exploration unit generally appeared geological exploration economic development speed and efficiency of double growth trend, geological exploration unit economic strength has greater enhancement. In order to maintain the overall stability of the geological exploration team, the local exploration units focus on strengthening ideological and political work, listen to the views of employees, and effectively care for retired workers, laid-off workers and workers in need of life, in the deepening of the reform to maintain the overall stability of the geological exploration team.
Increase investment in equipment and improve regulations. In order to ensure efficient geological work, during the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" period, the geological exploration units in Jiangsu Province invested a large amount of money to buy advanced analytical instruments and technological transformation laboratories, purchased advanced physical exploration instruments and equipment for the eastern part of the attack on the depth of blindness to make good preparations; to strengthen the internal restructuring of the organization, and increase the reform of the system, the establishment of a geological survey in line with the nature and characteristics of the work It has strengthened the internal organization adjustment, intensified the system reform, and established the management system, employment system and flexible distribution system in line with the nature and characteristics of geological survey work; intensified the reform of the distribution system, and carried out a variety of distribution forms, such as postal salary, piece-rate salary, project salary, and annual salary, so as to make the remuneration directly linked with the duties, income and achievements, and to reward the good and penalize the bad, and eliminate the inferior, so as to fully motivate the majority of scientific and technological personnel.
(E) Focus on team building and talent cultivation, enhance competitiveness and sustainable development ability
Adhere to people-oriented, building talent highland. During the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" period, the geological exploration units in Jiangsu Province insisted on people-oriented, and made efforts to build a talent highland by formulating incentive policies and adopting the means of introducing, cultivating, training and upgrading, etc., and achieved better results. From the research of several key units, all attach great importance to team building and talent training. Such as the newly introduced talents in the housing subsidies, job allowances to enjoy special policies; Provincial Geological Survey Research Institute of all commissioned postgraduate students, bear the tuition and miscellaneous fees, and after obtaining the degree will also be given appropriate incentives; annual academic exchanges to carry out activities, through the exchanges of mutual promotion and mutual advancement, to stimulate the enthusiasm of scientific researchers in academic research; Provincial Institute of Geological Survey by the Ministry of Personnel approved the establishment of the first in the country's provincial geological survey institutes in the post-doctoral research workstations. The provincial institute is the first one to set up postdoctoral research station among the provincial institutes approved by the Ministry of Personnel. In order to strengthen the construction of discipline leader team, enhance the independent research and development ability of the core technology of mineral resources exploration, and contribute to the development of geological scientific research of the province and even the country at a higher level. The Bureau of Nonferrous Geological Exploration introduces senior talents (2 post-doctoral fellows) with preferential conditions, such as housing, in order to improve its own scientific research and the theoretical level of mineral searching, and strengthens the joint efforts with the Chinese Academy of Sciences and some institutions of higher learning respectively to cultivate the backbones. Emphasis on team building has improved the competitiveness and sustainable development of the unit.
Three, the main problems and challenges exist in the geological exploration unit
Jiangsu geological exploration unit in the reform process, the idea is relatively clear, clear goals, for health care and pensions, and other major issues to solve the problem is relatively good. Of course, some historical legacies still need to be further resolved to create favorable conditions and environment for the development of geosurveying units.
(a) the direction of reform to be further clarified, unified understanding
Since the State Council in 1999 since the implementation of the 37th, the reform of the geological exploration units continue to deepen, and continue to appear "mode". From this research, we are very sensitive to the reform of the research, worried about the state to develop a unified model, set out the timetable. In general, we believe that the direction of reform is irreversible, and reform is a systematic project, which requires not only the efforts of geosurveying units themselves, but also the government and society to create a relaxed external environment. For the reform of the localization of geosurveying units should be included in the reform of local institutions, give full play to the role of the local government, the grass-roots geosurveying units are most worried about the historical burden of geosurveying units and the main problems have not yet been resolved on the provisions of the transfer of enterprises to change the system, the impact of geosurveying units to stabilize the situation.
(ii) housing conditions are difficult, monetized subsidies are difficult to put in place
From the Jiangsu geological exploration team as a whole, the active employees and retired employees basically half, many retirees, the development of a heavy burden, in all the historical legacy problems, housing is the most significant and prominent problem, the geological exploration personnel housing conditions are generally poor, such as non-ferrous geological exploration bureau more than 80% of the employees housing substandard , the province's monetized housing subsidy gap is huge.
(C) infrastructure is obsolete, update difficulties
Infrastructure investment in the provincial budget investment plan. Due to the special nature of geological work and historical reasons, the provincial geological exploration unit of the base construction, staff housing and other issues are very prominent, in urgent need of repair and renovation and relocation, the provincial government is very concerned about this issue, the next step will be to organize the relevant departments to carry out research work.
Four, experience and recommendations
(A) to strengthen the deepening of the reform of the geological exploration unit of macro-guidance
need to further strengthen the State Council documents and the publicity of the reform and development of the geological exploration unit of the seminar, a unified understanding of the concept, firm belief, and adhere to the public welfare and commercial geological work to run separately, and adhere to the government-enterprises and political separation, adhering to the general direction of the enterprise of the geological exploration unit.
(2) accelerate the "decision" related supporting documents drafting and introduction
Research generally agreed that the introduction of the "decision" is like a wisp of spring wind, blowing the heart of the geologists warmed up, I hope that there are more specific and operable guidance introduced. In particular, we hope that the central government will issue guiding documents to solve major problems such as monetization of housing and promote the local government to solve some major problems left by the geological exploration units, and accelerate the reform and development of the geological exploration units.
(3) Strengthening the exchange of experience in the reform and development of geological exploration units
Strengthening geological work is a major decision made by the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, and the provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) and geological exploration units are in different situations, and the progress of strengthening geological work is not balanced, some have already gained more mature experience, while some feel that there are many difficulties, and it is necessary to strengthen exchanges and to incorporate the successful experience into the In the drafting of normative documents and regulations, to strengthen the local and geological exploration units of guidance and direction.
