A Lean Six Sigma White Belt training course has been successfully completed.
All KGNT employees are continuously trained, refresh and replenish their knowledge. So, quite recently, colleagues were awarded Lean Six Sigma White Belt Certificates from @pwc.
Lean Six Sigma is a management methodology aiming at improving quality, productivity and meeting the customer’s requirements at lower costs and is an essential prerequisite for a company’s digital transformation.
We believe that the knowledge acquired will be useful and successfully put in practice for the Company’s further development.
Results of KGNT Charity Fair for the Children’s Day
By 1 June – Children’s Day – KGNT organized a charity fair to raise funds for a single mother with five children, one of whom is still not diagnosed by doctors. Each employee had a chance to buy sweets for himself and his loved ones, and then all the proceeds were handed over by us personally into the hands of the mother Assemgul Eginbayevna Sultanova (see photo in the carousel).
On behalf of Assemgul and the Company, we express our deep gratitude to you, colleagues, for your integral participation in the fair.
Taking this opportunity, we wish all of you a happy holiday and would like each of us to always try to make the lives of our planet’s little inhabitants better and safer.
KGNT 47th anniversary
Today is a remarkable day for all of us! KGNT is 47!
For 47 years now, being amongst the best professionals in our business, we have all become part of the history of creating a leading international engineering company with its long history, impeccable reputation, friendly atmosphere, established corporate etiquette and well-established principles of working with clients.
KGNT was founded in 1974. By Order of the Council of Ministers of the Kazakh SSR, a Special Design Bureau (“SDB”) was created at Kazglavneftesnab. One of the remarable milestones in the successful formation of the SDB was the demonstration of its work results at the USSR Exhibition of Economic Achievements in 1985.
In 1986, by Decree of the Council of Ministers of the USSR, the SDB was reorganized into SDI KazGiproNefteTrans. In 1995-1996 the institute carried out a significant international project – the first Chevron filling station in Central Asia – Almaty.
In 2001, the Company was reorganized into ENGINEERING COMPANY “KAZGIPRONEFTETRANS” CJSC (KGNT).
Since 2003 the Company has been bearing the current name of ENGINEERING COMPANY “KAZGIPRONEFTETRANS” LLP.
For 47 years, the Company has repeatedly confirmed its status as a leader in the oil and gas industry.
We express our gratitude to each of you, colleagues, for your contribution to the Company’s development, because thanks to you, KGNT is 47!
We sincerely believe that all the efforts will lead to our main mission – combining the technical progress, best world practices and experience of professionals for the development of the Republic of Kazakhstan!
The hobbies of our colleagues
The hobbies of our colleagues are sometimes pleasantly surprising. So, quite recently, a photo taken by our driver Alexander Katuntsev in the Almaty region was published in the international bird handbook “Handbook of Western Palearctic Birds”. This unique and impressive guide is the most comprehensive photographic one to passerines (sparrows) in the Western Palaearctic. Written by two of the world’s most honoured ornithologists Hadoram Shirihai and Lars Svensson the Western Palaearctic Bird Guide contains the latest available information on bird identification, covering all aspects of plumage, molting, aging and sex determination, with sections on vocal and other identification criteria and also detailed taxonomic notes.
KGNT is highly proud that the Company employs not only professionals, but also the most creative minds! Our congratulations!
Cleanliness is the key to health
We would like to devote today’s post to our irreplaceable fighters of the invisible front – the ladies from
Procurement and Administration Department. They contribute to the fact that each of us is less subjected to the risk of diseases in such a difficult time. Sometimes invisible things for us are everyday work and care by the technical staff.
It is thanks to them that the following sanitary standards are carried out on a daily basis: disinfecting the offices and workplace of each employee twice a day, quartz treating in the morning and evening, followed by ventilating the premises, decontaminating the door handles and all frequently touched places, and this is only a small part. We express our gratitude to each of you for your unwavering work!
Remember, colleagues, cleanliness begins with each of us!
international day of safety and health at work
Today, on 28.04.2021 the world celebrates the international day of safety and health at work. It is no secret that the safety of employees is the most important value of KGNT and it is confirmed by 9,305,252 man-hours without incidents at all locations. This is an indicator not only of the continuous improvement of health and safety processes on the part of management, but also the maximum contribution and involvement of each employee.
The Safety 360 program has been developed especially for our employees, which is aimed at improving the culture of safe behavior not only in the workplace, but also outside the work environment.
Part of the program is a “Progress Card” tool created to improve the processes in the field of the company’s integrated management system as well as to receive feedback.
Taking this opportunity, we want to thank each of you for your commitment to health and safety aspects and remind you that safety comes first!
