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.
Implemented investment projects
Reconstruction and expansion of the main water pipeline «Astrakhan-Mangyshlak»
On December, 2023, «Main Waterline
» LLP (100% share of participation «KazTransOil» JSC) has completed the implementation of the project «Reconstruction and expansion of the main water pipeline «Astrakhan - Mangyshlak» 1st stage».
Construction and installation work began in the 4th quarter of 2022. As part of the project, two sections of the
»Astrakhan-Mangyshlak
» main water pipeline with a length of about 176 km were replaced. As a result of the project implementation
»Main Waterline
» LLP will provide the throughput capacity of the «Astrakhan - Mangyshlak
» main water pipeline from 110 thousand m³ to 170 thousand m³ per day. The main water pipeline «Astrakhan - Mangyshlak» is a strategically important object, it is the only centralized source of water supply for consumers of the Kurmangazy, Isatay and Zhylyoi districts of the Atyrau region, as well as for the city of Zhanaozen, Beineu, Mangistau, Karakiya and Tupkaragan districts of the Mangystau region. The population consuming water makes up more than 35% of the population of the Mangistau region and more than 28% of the population of the Atyrau region. Every year, water consumption by the population grows by 4-5%.
The functioning and development of oil and gas production and industrial enterprises, as well as petrochemical production projects located in the special economic zone «National Industrial Petrochemical Technopark» in the Atyrau region depends on the uninterrupted supply of Volga water.
Construction of a water pipeline for a complex gas treatment unit at the Kashagan field
«Main Water Line» LLP (100% stake of «KazTransOil» JSC) implemented the project «Construction of a water pipeline for a complex gas treatment unit at the Kashagan field» in Atyrau region.
The water pipeline will supply water for the implementation of the first phase of the associated gas processing plant construction at the Kashagan field.
Construction and installation works were completed within 3 months from May 31 to August 31, 2023.
The water pipeline is connected to the main Astrakhan - Mangyshlak water pipeline, the operator of which is «Main Water Line» LLP.
