ASTANA, Kazakhstan, July 31. In the first half of 2025, KazTransOil JSC improved its operational efficiency by reducing its specific energy consumption per freight turnover.
Data obtained by Trend from KazTransOil JSC shows that, despite a 2.2 percent increase in freight turnover, the company reduced its energy consumption from 4.23 to 4.16 tons of fuel equivalent per million ton-kilometers, which is 1.65 percent less than the same period in 2024.
KazTransOil continues to implement long-term energy efficiency measures. In 2024, the company reduced its total consumption of all types of energy resources by 2.8 percent, or 3,898 tonnes of conventional fuel, compared to 2023. This was achieved through the optimization of trunk oil pipeline operations, the use of thermal mapping for the "hot" routes Uzen–Zhetybai–Aktau and Uzen–Atyrau–Samara, and the modernization of pump units at the Zhetybai Oil Pumping Station (OPS) and the Pavlodar Main Pumping Station (MPS).
In the first half of 2025, similar pump unit replacements were carried out at the T. Kasymov OPS and the Kalamkas MPS. These efforts not only enhance the company’s energy efficiency but also contribute to the resilience of Kazakhstan’s oil transportation system.
KazTransOil’s approach aligns with the goals of the Energy Saving and Energy Efficiency Improvement Concept for 2023–2029, approved by the Government of Kazakhstan on March 28, 2023. As part of this strategy, the company is implementing advanced technological solutions.
