## Summary

Kazakhstan produced ~1.5M bbl/day crude (excl. condensate) in 2024, from 3 main fields: Tengiz, Kashagan, Karachaganak. Tengiz (Tengizchevroil JV: Chevron 50%, ExxonMobil 25%, KazMunayGas 20%, LukArco 5%) is Central Asia's largest producer and world's deepest supergiant oilfield (~13,000 ft/4,000m deep, ~1-mile oil column, largest single-trap reservoir). $45-48bn FGP-WPMP expansion reached first oil 2025, adding ~260,000 bbl/day, targeting ~1M boe/day total. High H2S content requires special handling. Kashagan (offshore) is 2nd-largest CPC blend contributor, one of most difficult/expensive oil developments ever. Karachaganak: ~60 Tcf gas + 13bn bbls oil/condensate, KPO JV (Eni, Shell, Chevron, Lukoil). ~90% of Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC, 939mi/1,511km, Tengiz to Novorossiysk Russia) throughput originates in Kazakhstan — a strategic vulnerability post-2022 given Russia-Ukraine war (ExxonMobil has flagged CPC disruption risk to investors). Kazakhstan persistently exceeds OPEC+ quota (~1.468M bbl/day). Sources: US EIA, Chevron, S&P Global, Reuters/Zacks/Nasdaq.
