Tengizchevroil is a leading company that produces oil, gas and associated products that fuels the modern economy. Our history is closely interlinked with the rise of an independent Kazakhstan.
TCO maintains a leading position in the field of industrial safety in terms of such standard indicators as lost working days incidents and the rate of reported incidents.
TCO continues to achieve industry-leading safety results in standard industrial safety measurements such as Serious Incidents and Total Recordable Incidents.
The Contractor Health, Environment and Safety Management Process establishes clear accountabilities, ensures active engagement of contractors, and provides a consistent CHESM program to eliminate health, safety and environment (HSE) incidents and injuries involving contractors.
The requirements and activities included in CHESM process are focused on defining TCO expectations regarding contractor HSE performance, the qualification of contractors and the monitoring of contractor performance against expectations.
Contractors involved in activities presenting risks to workforce and process safety are subject to CHESM Qualification to evaluate HSE Management Systems and ensure adequate safeguards are in place and functioning before starting work at TCO Facilities.
TCO's work is guided by two key principles: do it safely or not at all and there is always time to do it right. Every employee of TCO and its Business Partner companies is responsible for making sure that work can be safely started. Each person has the right to temporarily suspend or completely stop any work if unsafe behavior or conditions are observed. The TCO Safe Work Practices Management Group, together with other teams, ensure that Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) guidelines and procedures are continuously implemented and maintained.
Tengizchevroil (TCO) participated in the 1st International PetroPolymers & PetroChemicals Forum, dedicated to petrochemical industry and polymer market of the Republic of Kazakhstan (RoK). The event, organized by the “Petrocouncil” Oil and Gas Council, was attended by representatives of more than 420 companies not only from Kazakhstan, but also from the CIS countries, as well as China and Turkey.
Askhat Khassenov, Republic of Kazakhstan, Vice Minister of Energy, emphasized the importance of developing the domestic petrochemical industry. “Investments of 13 billion US dollars is planned in the country’s petrochemical projects. The government will provide systematic support to the industry by creating the necessary conditions. It is important, starting from the design stage, when choosing an EPC contractor, to pay special attention to the Kazakh content in goods, works and services”.
TCO is playing a leading role in meeting the growing demand for gas in Kazakhstan, and supplies propane feedstock to produce polypropylene at the first integrated gas chemical complex - KPI, which was launched in Atyrau Oblast in 2022. Also, TCO and Butadiene LLP entered into an agreement to supply butane of European quality for a butadiene production plant. In addition, TCO plans to supply dry gas for the Gas Separation Complex project. Last year TCO and KMG Petrochem signed the Basic Terms of Agreement necessary for implementation of this project.
“According to an independent study by S&P Global, 1 dollar spent by TCO on Kazakhstani content development stimulates an additional 1 dollar in the economy and helps maintain an additional 59 new jobs. Today we clearly see this interconnection: thanks to the close cooperation of TCO with the RoK Government, new plants have been opened, jobs have been created, and the active development of the country’s petrochemical industry continues,” said Konilkosh Suyessinov, Tengizchevroil Deputy General Director.
Almost all dry gas produced at the Tengiz field is sent to the domestic market of Kazakhstan.
