The Caspian Pipeline Consortium operates the CPC Pipeline, which extends for approximately 1,500 kilometres from western Kazakhstan to the Black Sea coast of Russia. The pipeline transports crude oil primarily from the Tengiz, Karachaganak, and Kashagan oil fields, together with production from other fields in Kazakhstan and limited volumes from Russia. The system comprises pumping stations, storage facilities, metering stations, telecommunications infrastructure, and the Marine Terminal near Novorossiysk, where crude oil is loaded onto tankers for export to international markets. The pipeline is designed to provide high-capacity, long-distance transportation while ensuring operational safety, environmental protection, and reliable export access for producers in the Caspian region. | The Caspian Pipeline Consortium operates the CPC Pipeline, which extends for approximately 1,500 kilometres from western Kazakhstan to the Black Sea coast of Russia.
