Gas Processing
Priorities for Tabina, LLP include increasing processing capacity, delivering gas, and generating electricity at its own power plants. In order to assure the best performance of connected petroleum gas consumption, Tabina, LLP utilizes the most up-to-date equipment in all of its domains. An integrated system for gathering and using the gas must include the processing of associated petroleum gas. The Company’s gas processing plant is a cutting-edge facility that can create liquid hydrocarbons and dry stripped gas, both of which are extensively used in Kazakhstan industry and trade. The plant’s goods are of a high caliber and adhere to technical standards set by the state and the Customs Union.
In 2019, Tabina, LLP established the Gas Processing Division (UPG), a pioneer in the integrated approach to gas processing growth. In 2018, Tabina, LLP transported 10.3 million cubic meters of natural gas, LPG, and dry stripped gas. 14% of all gas shipments were made by LLC Nedra-k, with 10 million cubic meters sold. International gas sales climbed by 3% over the previous year to 6 million cubic meters because to increasing gas production. According to current plans, overall LPG processing will start in the first half of 2019. The company’s numerous clients will start receiving butane and propane deliveries simultaneously.
160,000 tonnes of LPG will be transported in the first year, the majority of it by railroad to both domestic and foreign markets. Sooner or later, drivers and passengers of public transit will benefit from cheaper gas and a more upbeat outlook in the local mobility sector. The displacement of gasoline and diesel fuel in river vessels is a big potential threat to the LPG industry.In 2016, 90 mln m3 of APG were flared off, that is four times less than in 2014 and by 13% less than in 2015. The 90% APG utilization rate has been achieved. The state requirement, geared to minimize production impact on environment, has been fulfilled. The objective at present is to maintain the level of rational APG utilization, as well as improve energy efficiency of oil production and reduce the emission of greenhouse gases.
These activities will be pursued within the framework of the corporate programme for 2016-2018. Among the other measures to be undertaken in 2017, the most important are the implementation of the final stage of the design and exploration works, as well as performance of construction and assembling works, and commissioning of gas pipeline from Tabina Oilfield.

By establishing Gas Processing Division (UPG) in 2015, Tabina, LLP pioneered the integrated approach to gas processing development.In 2016, marketable natural gas, APG and dry stripped gas shipments by Tabina, LLP totaled 10.3 million cubic meters. Tabina, LLP accounted for 14% of the total gas shipments, of which 10 million cubic meters were sold to other company.
