QazaqGaz Group is taking proactive steps to protect critical gas infrastructure and ensure uninterrupted gas supplyduring the upcoming spring floods. Following the 2024 flood season, which impacted several regions of Kazakhstan, including Aktobe, West Kazakhstan, Atyrau, and Kostanay, the company has developed and approved a comprehensive action plan to minimize risks and enable rapid emergency response.
Key Preparedness Measures:
Continuous monitoring of water levels in flood-prone rivers
Inspection of high-risk areas and preparation of emergency response sites
Identification of critical gas infrastructure at risk of flooding
Deployment of emergency repair teams and reinforcement of equipment reserves
Enhanced coordination with government flood response agencies
Increased monitoring of pipelines and gas facilities in flood-prone zones
Implementation of an emergency alert system for rapid response
QazaqGaz’s 24/7 Emergency Dispatch Service is on high alert, ensuring round-the-clock monitoring and assistance. Residents can call 104 for urgent support and guidance.
The West Kazakhstan branch of QazaqGaz Aimaq, which was most affected by the 2024 floods, is now fully equipped for flood response, with:
5 emergency gas repair vehicles (AGRM), each staffed with a four-person team
16 emergency gas service vehicles (AGM)
Excavators, pump stations, motorboats, and other specialized equipment
All regional branches are in a state of heightened readiness, strictly following approved protocols and timelines to prevent disruptions and mitigate potential flood impacts.
