Kazakhstan’s Oil and Gas Upstream 2008 provides the most comprehensive and unique publicly available examination of the country’s exploration and production (E&P) sector, with focus on the upstream operators, projects and the drilling and workover activity.

Kazakhstan’s Oil and Gas Upstream 2008 is designed to serve as an indispensable practical support tool for strategic, investment, business development and marketing decision-making.

The study consists of the following parts:

1. Overview of Kazakhstan’s oil and gas industry including:

upstream
transportation and exports
downstream and legislation

2. Profiles of 48 operator-companies currently active in Kazakhstan’s upstream with details on:

ownership and legal structure
key assets: licenses and reserves, field infrastructure
current operations: exploration, production, drilling
exports and marketing issues
contact information

3. Detailed data on drilling and workover activity in Kazakhstan as of autumn 2008:

106 operators
135 fields
60 drilling and workover contractors
over 170 rigs

The data has been verified as of September 2008 and is split by:

operator
field / region
drilling / workover contractor
rig type
well type

Sample drilling/workover profile by operator is available at request.

Kazakhstan’s Oil and Gas Upstream 2008 is an indispensable source of information for:
