The Kyzyloi Field (, Qyzyloı gaz ken orny) is a dry natural gas field in southern Kazakhstan about 65 km to the north of the border with the Karalkalpak region of Uzbekistan and 55 km to the north-west of the Aral Sea. It is a first gas field in Kazakhstan, which is operated by independent operator.
Field specification
Kyzyloi Field, which covers 287 km2, was discovered in 1966. It contains sweet natural gas (97% methane) in shallow sandstones of Paleogene age at a depth of approximately 600 m. The net proved and probable economically recoverable reserves are approximately 1.42 billion cubic meter.
Production
A commercial gas production commenced on 19 December 2007. The initial production capacity is 625000 m3/d. All produced gas is sold to the gas trading company GazImpex and assigned to Kazakhstan's Petrochemical Company Kemikal LLP.
Gas is exported from the Kyzyloi field along a 56 km2 pipeline to Tethys' compressor station adjacent to the tie-in point to the major Bukhara-Urals export trunkline system where three gas fired compressors compress the gas into the trunkline. Compressors pump gas into the line at a pressure of up to 54 atm.
Operator
The field is developed and operated by BN Munai LLP, a subsidiary of Tethys Petroleum Investments Limited.
