Doing it Right Way

When it comes to local content, measuring our performance is important to track our success. Calculation and reporting of Kazakhstani content spent is one of the legal requirements for TCO. It’s in our best interests to ensure that TCO suppliers are familiar with methodology of KC calculation. On a quarterly basis we conduct relevant training for our Business Partners that cover certain aspects of Subsoil Use Code and governmental decrees, which govern the calculation of local content, basic concepts and definitions, and examples of calculating KC in goods and services spent. Please note that this training is dedicated to TCO’s current suppliers and contractors only.

Tengizchevroil Shares Advanced Reservoir Management Practices

Dec 3, 2025, 10:39 by Zhanar Baizhumash
A delegation from Tengizchevroil LLP (TCO) participated in the annual international conference organized by the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE), held in Baku. The event brought together leading experts of the oil and gas industry, representatives of government bodies, academia, and international energy companies.

A delegation from Tengizchevroil LLP (TCO) participated in the annual international conference organized by the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE), held in Baku. The event brought together leading experts of the oil and gas industry, representatives of government bodies, academia, and international energy companies.

TCO’s participation in the SPE conference aims to facilitate knowledge exchange, discuss technological innovations, and enhance the professional competencies of its employees. The TCO delegation included managers and technical specialists involved in key areas of the company’s operations from field development and engineering solutions to safety, sustainability, and process digitalization.

Throughout the conference, TCO representatives took part in technical sessions, panel discussions, and expert forums focused on innovative production methods, environmental standards, operational efficiency, and the future of the global energy sector.
Bolat Amangaliyev, TCO Reservoir Management Planning Manager (RMG), shared insights on the company’s achievements:

Tengiz and Korolev are some of the most technically challenging oil and gas fields in the world which require unique technological solutions and global industry best practices for safe and efficient operations. Over 30 years, we have been leveraging new technologies and innovative methods, which have been adapted to these reservoirs impressive size, scale, and complexity. There are only few fields in the world that have Tengiz-type reservoirs for which gas injection has been used as a mechanism to maintain reservoir pressure and improve oil recovery. We have been utilizing Reservoir Modelling and Simulation technologies for more than two decades for reliable production forecasting and we have developed a state-of-the-art Dynamic Data Integration workflow, which enables us to utilize all available field data for more accurate reservoir characterization and modeling” he noted.

The TCO delegation also held several meetings with partners and international experts to discuss potential collaboration and technologies of future needed for Caspian region’s oil and gas industry.

Tengizchevroil was honored with an award as an outstanding example of commitment to technology, knowledge sharing, and functional excellence. Additionally, Zhambyl Sarbas, Reservoir Engineer, and Khadisha Ussenbayeva, Senior Petroleum Engineer from the Reservoir Management Group, received awards recognizing their contributions.

Background:
The Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) is the world’s largest professional organization for petroleum engineers and earth scientists, uniting more than 124,000 specialists globally. The SPE develops widely recognized technical standards, guidelines, and best practices that shape global petroleum engineering operations. These standards are primarily published through SPE’s technical reports, competency frameworks, and collaborative initiatives
