“EC “KGNT” LLP Joins the Work Group on Local Content Development in Petrochemicals
The importance of increasing local content in major petrochemical projects in Kazakhstan is becoming a key priority for both the State and business. To ensure an effective dialogue, a Work Group has been established, comprising heads of government authorities, representatives of the quasi-public sector, and leading companies in the industry. After six months of consideration, our company officially became a member of the Work Group as of December 2025, by decision of the Ministry of Energy of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Meetings of the Work Group are held twice a year under the chairmanship of the Vice Minister, where key decisions are made on the development of domestic participation in the country’s oilfield services and petrochemical projects. For KGNT, it is a new stage of cooperation with the State and an opportunity to play a more active role in increasing the level of local content and advancing the development of Kazakhstan’s petrochemical industry.
