Link
The "Beineu-Bozoy-Shymkent" gas pipeline is the largest pipeline project in the history of independent Kazakhstan, designed to play a crucial role in enhancing the country’s energy security.
The project commenced on January 18, 2011, when Kazakhstan's and China's companies, "KazTransGas" and "Trans-Asia Gas Pipeline Company Limited," jointly established the LLP "Beineu-Shymkent Pipeline." The route of the main gas pipeline, with a pipe diameter of 1067 mm, passes through the territories of Mangistau, Aktobe, Kyzylorda, and South Kazakhstan regions.
The implementation is carried out in several stages. Currently, work continues on the construction of REUs "Shornak," "Karaozek," "Aksuat," and "Saksauylsk" along the route roads. The gas pipeline under construction is a strategic project aimed at supplying Southern Kazakhstan with domestic natural gas and expanding the country's export potential.
The mining industry with a focus on crude oil production is the dominant industry in the Kyzylorda region.
Significant reserves of non-ferrous and rare earth metals (vanadium — 66%, uranium — 14.7%, zinc — 16.4%, lead — 11.1%) provide opportunities for diversification of the region's economy.
Points of economic concentration are the city of Kyzylorda, Zhanakorgan and Shieli districts.
In the next four years, 77 projects in the industrial sector worth more than one trillion tenge will be implemented here, creating nearly 8,500 jobs.
