ASTANA, Kazakhstan, October 3. Kazakhstan has
launched a project for the extraction and supply of raw gas from
the Tuzkol field in the Kyzylorda region, Trend reports via the country’s Energy
The initiative aims to strengthen energy resilience and support
the development of regional infrastructure.
The project is operated by TuzkolMunaiGaz Operating LLP, which
is implementing the initiative in close coordination with the
Ministry of Energy and with the participation of relevant national
At the initial stage, around 30 million m³ of raw gas will be
supplied annually. With the transition to industrial development of
the Tuzkol gas reserves in 2026 and the Ketekazgan West field in
2028, supply volumes are expected to increase gradually,
potentially reaching up to 200 million m³ per year. This will
significantly expand gas supply coverage and strengthen the
region’s energy infrastructure.
The project really puts its money where its mouth is—creating
new jobs, roping in local specialists, and building up the
necessary infrastructure. The extracted gas will be processed at
partner facilities and integrated into the national gas
transportation system.
The Ministry of Energy provides comprehensive support at all
stages, ensuring technological reliability and compliance with
state standards.
The Tuzkol gas project serves as an example of effective
cooperation between the government and business, aimed at
sustainable development, energy security, and improving the living
standards of the population.
The hydrocarbon reservoirs of Kazakhstan can be categorized into
four delineated or potential petroleum and gas provinces within the
Republic of Kazakhstan. Investigations within the territories where
hydrocarbon extraction has previously occurred culminated, by the
year 2010, in the identification of over 200 distinct accumulations
of oil, gas, oil-and-gas mixtures, and condensate resources. Among
these, the Kashagan, Tengiz, and Karachaganak fields can be
classified as supergiants.
