Meetings of CPC Corporate Governance Bodies Conducted in Moscow

A Meeting of CPC-R Board of Directors and an Extraordinary General Meeting of CPC-K Shareholders were conducted in Moscow on November 29, 2017.
The International Consortium’s Officers and Shareholders discussed CPC business operation results. Health, industrial and labor safety matters were particularly emphasized. A report on CPC Key Performance Indicators was listened to in the course of the meetings.
The function participants approved the Consortium’s 2018 Budget and reviewed the preliminary results of CPC Expansion Project implementation.
As a reminder, five new Pump Stations were put into operation in 2017: two PSs in Astrakhan Oblast, one in Krasnodar Krai and one in Stavropol Krai and also one in Atyrau Oblast in Kazakhstan.
PS-2 in Kalmykia was tied in to the Tengiz-Novorossiysk crude pipeline system in late October 2017. Comprehensive testing of the equipment was commenced on November 24, 2017 at the Station, which commissioning completes the Expansion Project. Once the facility is put into operation, the CPC pipeline system  will reach its designed capacity of 67 M tons of crude oil per annum.
FYI:
The CPC pipeline system is one of the largest investment projects with foreign capital in the energy sector in the CIS. The length of the Tengiz–Novorossiysk Pipeline is 1,511 km; it transports over two thirds of all Kazakhstan export crude, as well as crude from Russian oil fields, including the Caspian Region. CPC Marine Terminal is equipped with three Single Point Moorings (SPM) that allow to load tankers safely at a significant distance offshore, also amid poor weather conditions.
