• Kazakhstan's largest oilfield has cut production by five percent since October 26, according to sources

  Three industry sources said that Kazakhstan's largest oil field Tengiz operated by U.S. giant Chevron has reduced its oil production by about 21% in average since October 26. This is equivalent to 496,200 barrels of oil per day. As a member OPEC+ (an alliance between OPEC, other top producers, and Russia), the Central Asian nation is bound by output targets. The decline in production may allow Kazakhstan to meet its output quota as part of an agreement with OPEC+. According to one source, the maintenance on the field has led to a decline in production. Tengiz's operator did not respond immediately to a comment request. Tengiz increased oil production to a new record in early October, from 687,000 barrels per day in September. After maintenance was completed in August, the output had increased by 30%. Chevron, along with its partners, plans to increase production at the Tengiz Project to 850,000 bpd by the first half 2025. The expansion costs for the project are estimated at $49 billion. Chevron holds a 50% stake. Exxon Mobil owns 25% of the venture, KazMunayGaz holds 20%, and Lukoil, a Russian company, has 5%. Calculations show that Kazakhstan's average daily crude oil production in October was 20% lower than September. This is in line with its OPEC+ quota. Depending on the ratio for converting tons to barrels, the output was between 150,000 and 185,000 bpd below the OPEC+ quota. (Reporting and Editing by Sharon Singleton).

  Russia's secondlargest oil manufacturer Lukoil shut operations at its catalytic cracker system (KK1) at the NORSI oil refinery from Nov. 13 for emergency situation repair, three industry sources said on Tuesday. Lukoil did not immediately respond to an ask for remark. Among the sources stated that the catalytic cracker was broken. He said it was unclear how long it would take to repair the system.

• Austrian steelmaker Voestalpine states its gas supply is secure

  Austrian steelmaker Voestalpine stated on Monday its gas supply is safe and secure even if Russia's Gazprom stops shipments to Austria completely. Gazprom on Saturday halted supplies to Austrian energy company OMV after OMV won an arbitration case against Gazprom awarding it more than 230 million euros ($ 244 million). in damages and stated it would recuperate that money by not paying. Gazprom's invoices. Gazprom's deliveries to Austria via pipeline through Ukraine. and Slovakia have actually continued, nevertheless. Flows into Austria are. down by less than a 5th. We have actually gotten assurances from our suppliers that we will. receive the contractually agreed gas volumes even in case. of a possible interruption in supply from Gazprom Export,. Voestalpine stated in a declaration in action to a Reuters. concern about security of supply. Voestalpine is one of Austria's greatest customers of gas as. steelmaking is energy-intensive. In addition, Voestalpine gets gas directly from various. worldwide sources and can also use the natural gas. storage facility built in 2022, which alone will cover our. current requirements completely for a minimum of 3-4 months, it added,. describing its own reserves. Austria has long been greatly reliant on Russian gas. The. country promised to kick that habit right after Russia's. full-scale intrusion of Ukraine in 2022. It says it is now. gotten ready for an end to Russian gas supplies, with large gas. storage centers that are 93% full and other sources able to. fill any supply space. At the very same time, it continues to obtain most of its gas. from Russia. In September, the most recent month for which data is. offered, 86% of imports came from Russia, according to the. government's energy portal.
