Specialists of Tengizchevroil LLP (TCO) participated in the 2nd Annual Conference "PetroLogistics, Transportation & Rental-2025" (Conference) organized by the PetroCouncil of Kazakhstan, where experts discussed topical issues of oil, gas, sulfur transportation, and cargo logistics.
As the leading oil producer in Kazakhstan, TCO has provided significant value to the Republic of Kazakhstan with direct financial payments totaling $201 billion. In addition to crude oil, TCO produces natural gas, propane, butane, and sulfur. Ensuring the safe, efficient, and uninterrupted transportation of these products is at the core of TCO’s operations.
Tengiz crude oil reaches international markets by both pipelines and rail. While pipelines remain the primary mode of transport, rail plays an important role in our export strategy. For liquefied petroleum gas and sulfur rail is the only mode of transportation. In 2024 alone, TCO safely loaded and transported over 100,000 railcars to more than 50 destinations. The total weight of the products transported last year is equivalent to approximately 42,000 Baiterek Towers in Astana.
“Our success is built on strong partnerships. We work closely with the Ministry of Energy and the Ministry of Transport of the Republic of Kazakhstan, JSC NC KazMunayGas, JSC NC Kazakhstan Temir Zholy, LLP KazMorTransFlot, as well as key terminals, ports, and logistics providers. These collaborations are fundamental to maintaining a seamless, resilient supply chain that connects Kazakhstan’s energy resources to both domestic and global markets”, - highlighted Laurie Sasko, TCO General Manager, Marketing and Transportation.
In addition, TCO ensures the uninterrupted delivery of all marketable gas through Kazakhstan’s main gas pipeline, working closely with InterGas-Central Asia to maintain smooth and efficient gas transportation to residents and consumers.
