While TCO increased production of crude oil in 2025 to 39 million metric tonnes (311.3 million barrels).

Also, in 2025 TCO completed the phased implementation of automatic emissions monitoring systems (AEMS) and began real-time data transmission from TCO facilities to the relevant state authorities.
“We successfully and safely concluded 2025 with strong environmental and production results. These achievements are the outcome of the collective and coordinated efforts of the One TCO workforce. I would like to acknowledge not only the TCO and contractor organizations’ employees, but also to extend my sincere appreciation to our Partners, government authorities, and the public for their continued and unwavering support of the company’s operations for the benefits of the Republic of Kazakhstan”, - TCO General Director Billy Lacobie said.
Since 1993, TCO has made direct financial payments to Kazakhstan of about $212 billion, including taxes and royalties paid to the government, tariffs and fees paid to state-owned companies, profit distributions to the Kazakhstani shareholder, purchases of Kazakhstani goods and services and local employees’ salaries.
In 2025 company set a new record by achieving 71% of Kazakhstani Content (KC) spend performance driven by active engagement with domestic suppliers. Since 1993 TCO has invested about $52.3 billion on Kazakhstani goods and services. It is also worth mentioning that the Kazakhstani citizens now held 96% of positions in TCO compared to 50% in 1993.
TCO Deputy General Director, Kuanyshkerey Mukhtarov said: “TCO’s share of procurement in goods with Kazakhstani registered companies increased significantly from the previous year, reaching 15 per cent. And I would like to highlight the success stories of two local companies, PSI Energy and Karassay Machine-Building Plant, which successfully and safely completed the fabrication of two modular substations, each 38 meters long with modules weighing up to 92 tons. The project was delivered with a total of over 800,000 work hours and without a single lost-time incident. This is a great testament to the potential capabilities of our Kazakhstani companies.”
