KGNT at the Forefront of Dialogue: Outcomes of the Business Breakfast
with KPO and KazService

On February 16 of this year, «ENGINEERING COMPANY KAZGIPRONEFTETRANS» (KGNT) LLP took part in a key industry event —
a business breakfast organized by the Union of Oil Service Companies of Kazakhstan (KazService) and Karachaganak Petroleum Operating B.V. (KPO).
The meeting brought together over 30 leading market players to discuss the industry’s most pressing topic: the development of local content and the elimination of barriers for domestic manufacturers.

In Focus: Transparency and Long-Term Partnership

The dialogue proved to be highly practical. Participants, including KGNT experts, discussed mechanisms for accessing KPO projects and ways to optimize tender procedures. The main emphasis was placed on the following initiatives:

1. Contract Localization: Transitioning from large lots to more flexible procurement strategies to attract small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs).
2. Long-Term Planning: Implementing long-term contracts, which will allow Kazakhstan companies to confidently invest in modernization and capacity expansion.
3. Removing Barriers: Reviewing excessive technical requirements that often limit the participation of local suppliers.

KGNT’s Contribution to the Professional Community

Our company has always advocated for a systematic approach to industry development, where engineering thought and expertise play a key role. As a sign of commitment to these values and to strengthen professional ties, KGNT presented KPO and KazService with valuable commemorative books published in honor of KGNT’s 50th anniversary.
«Such meetings are not just a networking platform, but a real feedback tool. It is important for KGNT that every contract in the oil service sector becomes an investment in Kazakhstan’s competencies and the creation of new jobs» noted representatives of our delegation.
