Investment Rises in Attractive Kazakhstan Upstream Market

RPI, a leading provider of research on the energy sector of Russia, the Caspian region, Central and Eastern Europe, would like to bring to your attention “Kazakhstan’s Oilfield Service Market: Rise in Investment Attractiveness Amid New Realities” research study.

Despite the geopolitical tensions and Western sanctions against Russia, Kazakhstan continues to demonstrate fast economic growth, remains open to foreign capital and refrains from any involvement in the Ukraine conflict. This helps the country to maintain its investment attractiveness and be most interesting to foreign players in many segments, including oilfield services. RPI decided to take a fresh look at the prospects for Kazakhstan’s oilfield service market, drawing on the knowledge and experience gathered over 20-plus years of studying this country’s petroleum sector.

The study aims to present a detailed analysis of the oilfield service market of the Republic of Kazakhstan, including a summary of producers’ key performance data: production, drilling, workovers, application of enhanced oil recovery techniques, etc. We separately reviewed the drilling segments, including sidetracking, well servicing and workover, hydraulic fracturing, coil tubing and well cementing operations. A forecast of production and drilling activities from 2014 to 2025 is provided

The study provides detailed information on major oilfield service companies working in Kazakhstan and their business dynamics. It also reviews the country’s investment climate and potential risks and discusses opportunities for new companies’ entry into the Kazakh market.

The principal sections of the report provide the following information:

∙           Key indicators of the Kazakhstan’s upstream industry: scope of drilling and rates of production, well servicing and workover activities.

∙           Review of key customers. This section addresses new promising projects and reviews customer demand for drilling, workover and EOR services.

∙           Key contractor profiles: operational regions, services and productinve capacities of major oielfield service providers.

∙           Forecast of production and drilling activities for 2014-2025. The section assesses the prospects of the major production projects and producers’ drilling targets.

∙           Comments on the prospects for oilfield service providers’ activities in the Kazakh market. The section describes the most attractive market segments in terms of business growth, analyzes the most significant risks and provides recommendations regarding potential regional presence for an entrant company.

This product could be an important strategic decision-making tool for oilfield service providers and manufacturers of oilfield service equipment. It will enable the companies to assess the prospects for potential involvement in major upstream projects in Kazakhstan, weigh the risks and identify ways to mitigate them. The information contained in the report could also help oilfield market players to take an objective look at their potential, identify a long-term strategy and formulate targets for performance improvement.
