Wedoany.com Report on Feb 6th, Kazakhstan's crude oil exports experienced a significant decline in January, decreasing by nearly 30% compared to the previous month. This drop was primarily due to production disruptions at the onshore Tengiz field and technical issues with the country's key oil export pipeline. Although crude oil shipments to Germany via the Druzhba pipeline increased, this was insufficient to fully offset the overall export losses.

Data shows that Kazakhstan's crude oil export volumes fell to a lower level in January, with the shutdown of the Tengiz field being a major factor contributing to the reduced supply. Concurrently, operational problems with the main export pipeline further exacerbated the downward trend in exports. Although shipments via the Druzhba pipeline to Germany showed growth, these positive developments were outweighed by the aforementioned negative events.

As a significant crude oil producer, fluctuations in Kazakhstan's exports have a certain impact on the international market. The export decline in January reflects the challenges the country faces in energy transportation. Future attention will be on the progress of field production resumption and pipeline repairs. While the increased transport via the Druzhba pipeline provides stable supply to some markets, the overall export situation still depends on the reliability of infrastructure and production stability.
