Tengizchevroil is the largest energy company operating in Kazakhstan. It was originally formed in 1993 and has various partners: KazMunayGas, Chevron Overseas Company, Exxon Mobil Kazakhstan Ventures Inc. and Lukarco B.V. It also owns one of the world’s top ten fields: Tengiz. The U.S. partner helped increase output from 1 million tons per year in 1993 to 13.5 million tons today. By instituting best practices and improving drill technology, the company’s production will double by 2007. The goal is to bring Kazakh exports to three million barrels per day (mbd), which would be an impressive figure for a country of 15 million people.

Through our subsidiaries, Chevron is involved in two of Kazakhstan’s largest joint ventures: Tengizchevroil (TCO) and Karachaganak Petroleum Operating B.V. (KPO).

Chevron is Kazakhstan’s largest private oil producer, holding important stakes in two of the nation’s biggest oil-producing fields – Tengiz and Karachaganak.

Chevron holds a 50% interest in Tengizchevroil which develops Tengiz and Korolev fields. The joint venture is also developing the nearby Korolev Field.

In addition, Chevron holds an 18% interest in the Karachaganak Field.

Chevron is the largest private shareholder in the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC). The Caspian Pipeline provides an important export route for crude oil from Tengiz and Karachaganak. A major expansion of the pipeline was recently completed.
