Energy Transition Role for Liquefied Petroleum Gas
Kazakhstan, one of Central Asia’s leading energy producers, holds a significant position in the global hydrocarbon sector. While the country is widely recognized for its oil and natural gas reserves, it also produces substantial volumes of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), a versatile energy product with growing domestic and international demand.
Liquefied Petroleum Gas, commonly referred to as LPG, is a mixture of hydrocarbon gases—primarily propane and butane—derived from natural gas processing and crude oil refining. It is widely used as a cleaner-burning fuel for heating, cooking, transportation, and industrial applications. Due to its relatively low emissions compared to coal or fuel oil, LPG is gaining importance as part of the global transition toward more sustainable energy sources.
Kazakhstan produces several million tonnes of LPG annually, a
significant share of which is consumed domestically.
Storage & Distribution: Infrastructure such as pipelines, storage terminals,
and rail networks are vital for LPG logistics within Kazakhstan and for
exports to neighboring markets.
LPG plays a growing role in Kazakhstan’s domestic energy
balance. It is widely used for:
Household Cooking and Heating: Many rural households depend on LPG cylinders
where natural gas pipelines are not available.
Autogas (Vehicle Fuel): A significant portion of Kazakhstan’s vehicle fleet
has been converted to run on LPG, largely due to its lower price compared to
gasoline or diesel.
D6 is a residual, heavy fuel oil left over after lighter petroleum fractions such as gasoline, kerosene, and diesel are distilled from crude oil. It is dark, viscous, and thick in consistency, requiring preheating before combustion. Despite being more difficult to handle, it has significant applications in:
