KGNT at KIOGE 2026: Technologies, Professional Dialogue, and New Points of Interaction
KGNT employees and management visited KIOGE 2026, the 30th anniversary Kazakhstan International Oil and Gas Exhibition and Conference, held from September 30 to October 2 in Almaty.
Over three decades, KIOGE has become one of the key professional platforms for the oil and gas industry in Kazakhstan and the Caspian region. This year, the exhibition brought together more than 500 companies from 22 countries, gathering national and international oil and gas companies, engineering and service organizations, equipment manufacturers, technology companies, and industry experts.
For KGNT specialists, visiting the exhibition was an opportunity to get acquainted with current technological solutions and equipment, exchange experience with industry colleagues, and participate in business program seminars. The focus of discussions was on digitalization and artificial intelligence, modern technologies for extraction and processing, and new approaches to improving the efficiency of oil and gas projects.
Such platforms provide an opportunity not only to monitor technological changes, but also to communicate directly with representatives of clients, partners, manufacturers, and the expert community, discussing market needs and promising areas of cooperation.
For an engineering company, presence at industry events is an important part of professional development. Engineering changes along with technologies, customer requirements, and industrial challenges. Therefore, it is important for KGNT to be part of the professional dialogue: to see new solutions, understand market development trends, and turn the acquired knowledge and contacts into practical opportunities for future projects.
Charity Initiative
Kind Deeds Bring Us Together ❤️
A charity campaign in support of the Shanyrak Social Services Centre was held at KGNT.
We organised a fundraising campaign among the company’s employees, and thanks to everyone’s participation, we were able to raise funds to purchase the necessary household appliances, which were presented as a gift to the Social Services Centre.
As part of the celebration, a warm and welcoming concert was held at Shanyrak for its residents. Guests and sponsors gathered to congratulate the residents and bring them attention, care and good spirits.
Representatives of KGNT also joined the celebration, presented gifts and wished the residents of Shanyrak good health, well-being, warmth and comfort, as well as many bright and joyful days.
It was a truly heartfelt celebration filled with music, kind words and genuine emotions. ❤️
We express our thanks to every KGNT employee who took part in the fundraising campaign. Thanks to your care and support, our team’s contribution was transformed into practical and meaningful gifts.
May there be more and more kind deeds! ❤️
Training Programme: Anti-Stress Management
Training Programme: Anti-Stress Management
KGNT has completed the first part of the Anti-Stress Management training programme, aimed at developing effective communication and self-management skills in stressful situations.
The first stage of the training focused on practical communication skills. Participants learned to better manage their emotions, stay focused on their goals, communicate their ideas with confidence, and maintain constructive dialogue even in challenging and non-standard situations.
These skills are particularly important in today’s working environment, where employees need to make decisions quickly, interact effectively with colleagues and partners, and maintain performance under high workloads.
The training helps develop resilience, mindful communication and the ability to maintain control in challenging situations, contributing both to individual employee effectiveness and stronger team interaction.
Industrial Data & Artificial Intelligence: New Tools for Engineering Digitalisation
Industrial Data & Artificial Intelligence: New Tools for Engineering Digitalisation
The digital transformation of industry is increasingly moving beyond the automation of individual operations. Today, data is at the centre of this process — how it is collected, structured, analysed, and used to support faster and more accurate engineering decisions.
Artificial intelligence technologies are becoming an increasingly important part of this transformation.
KGNT’s Industrial Control Systems (ICS) Department specialists took part in the Industrial Data and Artificial Intelligence for Accelerating Digitalisation seminar, organised by Klinkmann. The programme covered practical aspects of modern industrial automation — from equipment connectivity and high-quality data collection to the development of digital infrastructure ready for the implementation of artificial intelligence technologies.
Experts presented Rockwell Automation solutions, approaches to assessing installed equipment and planning modernisation, the capabilities of FactoryTalk Historian for industrial data archiving and analysis, as well as modern industrial communication tools based on FactoryTalk Optix and MQTT. Particular attention was paid to transforming production data into actionable information to support engineering and management decisions.
For ICS specialists, these technologies are particularly relevant: modern automation systems are becoming not only tools for controlling industrial processes, but also important sources of data for further digitalisation of industrial facilities.
Participation in industry seminars enables the KGNT team to stay up to date with current technological solutions, exchange experience with experts, and further develop competencies in industrial automation, data management, and artificial intelligence.
Today, digitalisation begins with high-quality data, while engineering expertise helps turn that data into a tool for improving efficiency and driving industrial development.
Earthquake Drill at KGNT
Happy Instrumentation and Automation WorkSeismic Drill at KGNT
Today, KGNT conducted a training seismic drill as part of the company’s civil defence and emergency preparedness activities. The drill focused on “Actions of management, emergency response teams and employees in the event of an earthquake.”
During the drill, employees practiced the required procedures in the event of an earthquake, coordination between responsible personnel, and an organized evacuation from the building.
Practical drills like this are an important part of our safety culture. They help not only assess employees’ readiness, but also reinforce the correct response to an emergency: remain calm, quickly assess the situation, follow established procedures, and help those around you.
Preparation today — confident actions tomorrow.
Safety starts with each of us.
Know what to do — act with confidence.

Anatoly Petrovich Nechaev’s Engineering Library
Anatoly Petrovich Nechaev’s Engineering Library
KGNT now has a special library — a collection of Anatoly Petrovich Nechaev’s professional literature, donated to the Company by his widow.
Anatoly Petrovich’s is no longer with us, but his professional knowledge and experience continue to live on through these books.
This collection represents a part of his professional legacy — an opportunity to preserve the memory of a remarkable person, pass on accumulated knowledge to support the development of engineering expertise, encourage young professionals and preserve the traditions of engineering design.
May the books that accompanied him throughout his professional career continue to serve a purpose — helping others find solutions, inspiring new ideas and contributing to the creation of the projects of the future.
“Knowledge doubles when it is shared.”
Meeting of the Council of Engineering Companies
During this meeting, Alexandra Bekisheva, CEO of EC KGNT LLP, delivered a presentation on the strategic importance of developing domestic engineering and its role in the Kazakhstan economy. Today, our country is implementing large-scale projects in the oil and gas, energy, mining, petrochemical and infrastructure sectors. The engineering design is a stage where key technological solutions, project costs and future effectiveness are being set. In her speech, Alexandra emphasized the importance of developing Kazakhstan’s own engineering competencies—developing digital engineering, implementing AI, training strong specialists and expanding the participation of domestic companies in major projects. KGNT perceives the development of domestic engineering as an investment in the country’s technological future.
