A world-class infrastructure hub in north-western Kazakhstan
Nostrum has developed a state-of-the-art infrastructure hub unique to north-western Kazakhstan. Our fully commissioned gas processing facilities, with a combined capacity of 4.2bcm per year, are ideally located to support the production and sale of our own produced and third party gas. We have access to multiple transportation routes as well as full control of liquid transportation logistics with 120km of liquids pipeline and an automated rail loading terminal.
The current production levels utilise around 15% of its capacity. Our focus is to try to fill the spare capacity with third party gas. Unlocking this potential is critical to our ability to grow stakeholder value.
Since its independence in 1991, Kazakhstan has established itself as one of the world’s most prolific hydrocarbon centres.
Nostrum’s assets are all located in the Pre-Caspian Basin and in close proximity to some of the most significant hydrocarbon resources in the Former Soviet Union. This advantageous position means that the Company has access to multiple export markets for its products as well as labour and specialist equipment providers. In addition, Nostrum has a substantial amount of spare processing capacity in a region where there is a significant amount of stranded gas and a growing need for gas processing.
