How many oil workers are there in Huatugou?

There are nearly 60,000 oil workers in this area.

Huatugou, a place with a population of nearly 60,000, is mainly composed of oil workers and their families. Due to the shortage of fresh water resources, there is no food and vegetables in this place, and there is no windbreak. Food is basically trucked from Dunhuang, Gansu, 500 kilometers away. There is a small river in the town where the snow-capped mountains melt into water. Although the amount of water is not large, it is enough to moisten the whole town.

The oil men who lived, grew up and worked in the Gobi Oilfield for generations still miss the mountains and valleys there, because there are oil men's persistence and dreams.
