In connection with the development of the Каshagan project it becomes possible to return to the question on the construction of the fourth oil refinery in the territory of Kazakhstan.
The Prime Minister Karim Massimov informed about it answering to the questions of the deputies of the Majilis of Parliament. “We consider that Каshagan is an important project for Kazakhstan, and our share in this project is necessary. In future, along with participation in the share, the availability of the physical oil itself for Kazakhstan is essentially important,” said K. Massimov.
The Prime-Minister has stressed that the construction of the fourth oil refinery will make it possible to provide Kazakhstan’s energy independence. In conclusion, K. Masimov informed that the proposals of the Government on this issue will be reported to the head of state, and asked the members of parliament for their support.
He also has noted that today “certain complexities appear in the negotiating process on loading the resources of the Pavlodar Oil Refinery,” informs Kazinform.
