Natural Gas

KPO is actively in the natural gas business as it’s expected to play an important role in people’s lives and impact the world’s economic growth. The company has also been in the development of limiting CO2 emissions by producing cleaner natural burning gas.

LIQUID NATURAL GAS
KPO global presence combined with our ability to supply in the natural gas business, Europe being our strong distribution network. We plan to reach the production shelf of over 471 million cubic meters of natural gas per year.

The Kazakhstan natural gas business has been a vital commodity for the European market for many decades, advanced technologies, and processing units. We can have a competitive advantage and position in the gas market business to help meet the world’s growing natural gas and power demands.

Natural gas is cooled to a condensation temperature of (-161.5°C) turns into a liquid form called liquefied natural gas (LNG). In this case, the volume of gas is reduced by 600 times. LNG as well as CNG can be used as motor fuel.

Due to the fact that LNG has a high energy intensity, it can be effectively used in large-volume engines with high fuel consumption. The most promising segments for the use of LNG are considered trucks, railway, water transport, mining, and agricultural machinery.

The company operates a system of main gas pipelines through our partners of over 6,500 km and 10 compressor stations and we are capable to deliver gas through natural gas high-pressure pipelines grids to Europe with an entry and exit value of over 94 billion cubic meters per year.

Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) — is obtained by cooling natural gas to cryogenic temperatures at about -161°C. The liquefaction process is based on the effect of the gas cooling due to a decrease in its pressure: initially, natural gas is compressed in compressor units, then pre-cooled in custom-built units and throttled at the stage. Where the pressure is reduced. The final LNG is poured into special cryogenic containers (thermoses), where it can be stored for a longer period.
