The Refinery’s hazardous process units are outfitted with computer training complexes to prepare staff for potential emergency situations. Personnel at refineries are well outfitted with protective clothing and equipment. Individual gas analyzers are provided to the personnel at numerous workshops. Every year, all Refinery employees complete medical examinations. A variety of procedures is implemented to keep Refinery employees healthy: influenza and other infection illness immunizations are administered, workers are sent to resort sanatoriums, and persons working in hazardous situations are given dairy products and dietary food.

Production Safety Policy
When carrying out production activities, Tengri Oil is guided by the requirements of the environmental legislation of the Kazakhstan and the Tengri Oil Policy in the field of industrial and environmental safety, labor protection and civil protection and social responsibility. Priority measures are aimed at preventing negative impact on environmental objects and rational use of resources. The company is implementing projects for the utilization of associated petroleum gas. At the Shymkent fields, gas reciprocating generators operating on this fuel are used.
At the Eastern section of the Shymkent oil and gas condensate field, a complex of infrastructure facilities for the compression and transportation of associated petroleum gas to the Shymkent GPP is under construction. In order to ensure reliable operation of pipelines at the company’s fields, work has been organized for external and in-line pipeline diagnostics, which make it possible to assess the operational suitability of the pipeline and predict its service life. Work is also underway to monitor the corrosion rate. Great importance is attached to environmental monitoring in order to timely identify negative impacts and eliminate them.

This priority is reflected in the general corporate slogan of Tengri Oil – “Safety begins with you”. One of the key tools for enhancing production culture is training. In 2022, 644 employees of Tengri Oil took courses in various programs, including Safety Rules in the Oil and Gas Industry and Environmental Safety and others. The enterprise annually conducts training sessions in order to develop the skills of personnel to eliminate possible accidents, as well as to interact in this direction with government bodies of different levels.
Contractor management is one of the priorities of Tengri Oil in the field of industrial safety. The company provides conditions for the safe work of its employees and requires the same from partners.

Contractors are rated on a quarterly basis, which makes it possible to promptly implement corrective programs.

The monitoring involves employees of mobile groups of security companies and employees of the Occupational Safety Directorate (UPB). Also, UPB employees audit contractors at the stage of prequalification of contractors and at the stage of their admission to work, conduct monthly training on corporate standards in the field of industrial environmental safety of managers and specialists of contractors.
