Oil Reserves in Kazakhstan
- Kazakhstan has proven oil reserves of 30,000,000,000 barrels (as reported in 2025) (#12 in the world), representing 1.7% of the world's total.
- As of 2025 production rates, Kazakhstan has roughly 40 years of proven oil reserves left (crude and condensate reserves ÷ their annual production).
Oil Production in Kazakhstan
- Kazakhstan produced 2,149,550 barrels per day of oil and petroleum liquids in 2025 (#11 in the world), an increase of 13% from 1,902,990 barrels per day in 2024.
- Of that, 2,046,610 barrels per day was crude oil in 2025.
- And 100,404 barrels per day was natural gas plant liquids (NGPL) in 2025.
Kazakhstan has years with negative refinery gain. Refinery gain (or processing gain) is the volume difference between the refined products output and crude input.
Oil Consumption in Kazakhstan
- Kazakhstan consumed 412,115 barrels per day of oil and petroleum products in 2024 (#38 in the world), an increase of 1.2% from 2023. This represents 0.4% of the world's total oil consumption.
- Per capita, oil consumption in Kazakhstan averaged 0.84 us gallons per day in 2024 (#78 in the world).
- The largest refined-product categories were Motor Gasoline (28.5%), Distillate Fuel Oil (28.2%), and Other Refined Products (23.2%).
