Abstract:
It is shown that the presence of large natural resource potential leads to a special place of Kazakhstan among
the industrialized countries, and its efficient use becomes a key determinant of energy security of the Republic.
The significance of the resumption of oil production at the Kashagan field as an important milestone in
the development of the country's oil and gas complex is highlighted. It is proved that an important direction in
the solution of questions of increase of efficiency of hydrocarbons usage in the future must be scientific justified
its involvement in recycling. t is proved that an important direction in resolving the issues of increasing
the efficiency of the use of hydrocarbon raw materials in the future should be the scientific substantiation of
its involvement in processing. The idea is stated that, as a result of the current modernization, oil refineries
will enter a different qualitative level of fuel supply. The priorities of the transition to low-carbon development
of the oil and gas sector enterprises are substantiated, taking into account the commitments undertaken
in the field of reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the future. Particular attention is paid to the new vector
of development of the oil and gas industry, aimed primarily at technological modernization of its enterprises.
It is emphasized that the work on diversification of oil transport routes allowed expanding the technical capabilities
of the export of domestic oil. The need for a successful implementation of the project for the creation
of an international oil consortium «Eurasia» is disclosed. It is noted that this project is aimed at exploration of
deep deposits of the Caspian depression and is already entering the stage of practical implementation.
