One of the largest investment projects of the Company is the
construction of the Kazakhstan-China oil trunk pipeline system. Its implementation began in the 2000s, as part of the policy of independent Kazakhstan to create a multi-vector system for the transportation of hydrocarbons. Given the scale and strategic importance of the project, its implementation is carried out in stages. As part of the first stage, in 2006 the «Atasu-Alashankou» oil pipeline (KСP) with a length of over 960 kilometers and in 2009, the «Kenkiyak-Kumkol» oil pipeline (KCP) was built and put into operation.
The project «The second stage of the second stage of the construction of the Kazakhstan-China oil pipeline. Increasing productivity to 20 million tons of oil per year» (the Kazakhstan-China Project) is aimed at diversifying the directions of oil supply for export, as well as creating the possibility of providing oil refineries of the Republic of Kazakhstan with domestic raw materials.
Together with the launch of the modernized «Kenkiyak» gas transmission station in 2018, the work on the Kazakhstan-China Project previously planned by «KazTransOil» JSC has been completed. However, in order to ensure the supply of West Kazakhstan oil to the refineries of the Republic of Kazakhstan and for export to the Republic of China, «KazTransOil» JSC is implementing the following projects jointly with «MunaiTas» LLP and «Kazakhstan-China Pipeline» LLP:
-
«The first stage of the reverse of the «Kenkiyak-Atyrau» oil pipeline section with a capacity of up to 6 million tons per year» within the framework of the project «The second stage of the second stage of the construction of the Kazakhstan-China oil pipeline. Increase in productivity to 20 million tons of oil per year» (hereinafter – the Reverse Project);
-
«Increasing the capacity of the system for measuring the quantity and quality of oil at the «Kenkiyak» and «Kumkol» oil refineries within the framework of the project «The second stage of the second stage of the construction of the Kazakhstan-China oil pipeline. Increase in productivity to 20 million tons of oil per year» (hereinafter –the Project of system for measuring the quantity and quality of oil).
As part of the Reverse Project:
On June 15, 2020, the first launch complex of the Reverse Project was put into operation.
Within the framework of the second launch complex, the construction of the Oil Pumping Station «Aman» is being carried out. On December 29, 2020, the act of mechanical completion of the Oil Pumping Station «Aman» was signed.
On June 30, 2021, the acceptance into operation of the objects of the 2-launch complex (objects of technological purpose of the Oil Pumping Station «Aman») was carried out and made it possible to transport oil in reverse mode.
In October 2021, heating furnaces were put into operation at The Aman OPS, which made it possible to ensure the transportation of West Kazakhstani oil through the Kenkiyak-Atyrau oil pipeline in reverse mode in the amount of up to 6 million tons per year.
Within the framework of the Project of system for measuring the quantity and quality of oil:
On December 31, 2020, the objects of the system for measuring the quantity and quality of oil «Kumkol» and of the system for measuring the quantity and quality of oil «Kenkiyak» were put into operation.
Reconstruction and expansion of the main water pipeline «Astrakhan-Mangyshlak»
«KazTransOil» JSC together with «Main Waterline Pipeline» continues to carry out work on the implementation of the investment project «Reconstruction and expansion of the main water pipeline «Astrakhan-Mangyshlak». The water pipeline is the only centralized source of water supply for enterprises and more than half a million people (>511 thousand people) in 3 districts of the Atyrau region, 4 districts of the Mangystau region and the city of Zhanaozen.
The Project involves increasing the capacity of the «Astrakhan-Mangyshlak» main water pipeline and updating worn-out equipment to meet the existing shortage and the prospective growth of water consumption in the Atyrau and Mangystau regions of the Republic of Kazakhstan. At the moment, development of the design and estimate documentation has been completed for the project.
