元宇宙呈现新技术、新场景、新资产“三新”态势，在油气行业的上中下游都能得到广泛应用。支撑元宇宙的技术主要包括数字孪生、人机交互、人工智能(AI)、区块链、网络及运算、物联网六大技术主线。中国石油集团在勘探生产、炼油化工、销售等各个业务板块基于元宇宙相关技术进行了广泛和多元化的应用和探索，在各个领域取得了一定的应用效果，积累了建设经验，但在平台、技术、应用、生态4个方面还存在不足。提出中国石油集团发展元宇宙的策略以及在近期、中期、远期的建设思路。元宇宙建设的总体框架自下向上分为算力基础、能力支撑、应用场景，中国石油需要在这些领域制定和部署元宇宙技术攻关战略规划；抓住元宇宙带来的变革机遇，抢占未来发展的制高点。

Metaverse presents such “three new” trends as new technologies,new scenes,and new assets,and can be widely applied in the upstream,midstream,and downstream oil and gas industry.The technologies supporting Metaverse include digital twins,human-computer interaction,artificial intelligence (AI),blockchain,networking and computing,and the Internet of Things (IoT).CNPC has carried out extensive and diversified application and exploration based on Metaverse related technologies in various business segments including exploration and production,refining and chemical industry,and sales,achieved certain application effect,accumulated construction experience in various fields,but still had deficiencies in such four aspects as platform,technology,application,and ecology.The paper sets out CNPC’s strategy for developing Metaverse and construction ideas in the near,medium,and long term.Since the overall framework for Metaverse construction is divided into arithmetic foundations,capacity support,and application scenarios from the bottom up,CNPC needs to develop and deploy strategic plans for Metaverse technology research in these areas,seize the opportunity of change brought by Metaverse and grab the high point of its future development.
