In January 2022, CPC Marine Terminal (MT) loaded 5,356,785 gross tons (42,499,117 barrels) of crude oil. This is 30% more than in the similar period of the past year. The MT processed 51 tankers during the first month of 2022.
Of 5,356,785 tons lifted in January 2022, 2,548,903 tons of crude were from Tengiz field, 983,630 tons from Karachaganak field, 1,286,815 tons from Kashagan field and 10,004 tons from other Kazakhstani producers.
In January, the Kazakhstani producers exported in total 4,829,352 tons of crude oil, and 527,433 tons of lifted crude came from the Russian territory.
From 2001 through to January 31, 2022, 770,913,360 net tons of crude oil were delivered to the world markets via the Tengiz-Novorossiysk crude pipeline system. 672,550,813 tons of that crude came from Kazakhstan and 98,362,547 tons of crude were produced in Russia. The total number of tankers processed during that period amounted to 7,283 vessels.
As per preliminary nominations, about 62.5 mln tons are to be transported by CPC pipeline system in 2022, with 56.7 mln of that amount being the oil of Kazakhstani Shippers. These data can be adjusted to account for the repair activities on Kashagan, Karachaganak and Tengiz fields.
