The 30th Kazakhstan International Oil & Gas Exhibition and Conference (KIOGE 2026) recently concluded successfully at the Atakent International Exhibition Centre in Almaty. As Central Asia’s longest‑running and most influential oil and gas industry event, KIOGE 2026 brought together energy companies, technical service providers, oil and gas operators, and industry experts from 58 countries to explore new opportunities in Central Asian oil and gas development, equipment upgrading, digital transformation, and international energy cooperation.

Shenkai exhibited its oil and gas wellhead equipment, well control equipment, logging equipment, and integrated solutions, showcasing the technical strength of Chinese manufacturing to Central Asian markets such as Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan.

At the event, addressing diverse operational challenges in Central Asia—including deep‑zone development, high‑sulphur corrosion, and extreme low temperatures—Shenkai highlighted core oil and gas equipment such as high‑pressure blowout preventer (BOP) stacks and unitized wellhead assemblies. The products comply with international standards including API 6A, API 16A, and NACE MR0175, and the company can provide full technical support for EAC certification under the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) Technical Regulations (TR CU). They are suitable for complex high‑sulphur, high‑pressure conditions in Central Asian oil and gas fields. Shenkai also presented end‑to‑end solutions for ultra‑deep well development, sour‑service production, frigid‑environment operations, and efficient drilling and logging, fully aligned with the actual production needs of oil and gas exploration and development in Central Asia.

Deep Earth Engineering Solutions | For Ultra‑Deep Operations from 6,000 to 10,000 m

To address technical challenges in deep and ultra‑deep drilling—such as high temperature, high pressure, high stress, and difficult coring—Shenkai has overcome several industry‑wide technical bottlenecks and developed integrated solutions suitable for 6,000–10,000 m deep and ultra‑deep wells. The equipment has been successfully deployed in exploration operations in deep and ultra‑deep wells in China, including Pengshen X Well (9,026 m), Asia’s deepest vertical well, and Aotan X Well (9,646 m). Having withstood complex ultra‑deep downhole conditions in real operations, it can provide solid technical and equipment support for the large‑scale, efficient development of ultra‑deep oil and gas resources in Central Asia.

High‑Sour‑Service Well Control and Wellhead Equipment Solutions | For Extreme High‑H₂S Conditions

In response to the high‑sulphur, highly corrosive operating conditions of Central Asian oil and gas fields, Shenkai offers a complete set of high‑sour‑service, high‑gas‑tightness well control and wellhead equipment solutions. The products fully meet the stringent API 6A HH requirements and are suitable for extreme conditions with H₂S concentration of ≥35%, a maximum pressure rating of 20,000 psi, and a maximum temperature rating of 177 °C. Supported by an intelligent precision electronic control system, the equipment ensures safe, stable, and intelligent operation under high‑sulphur conditions, providing a robust safeguard for oil‑and‑gas development under high‑pressure and highly corrosive conditions.

Extreme Cold Solution | All‑Weather Operation Down to -59 °C

In view of the long periods of extreme cold and sharp temperature fluctuations in Central Asian producing areas, Shenkai has conducted dedicated optimisation of its low‑temperature product portfolio, addressing issues such as low‑temperature embrittlement, seal failure, and start‑stop malfunctions in conventional equipment. Its in‑house‑developed low‑temperature BOP stack enables stable operation at -59 °C, while the low‑temperature BOP control system operates normally at -40 °C. Featuring a large bore, high gas‑tight integrity, and high shear capacity, the system forms an end‑to‑end integrated supply chain covering BOP stacks, remote control systems, and choke and kill manifolds, ensuring continuous, stable oilfield production around the clock.

LWT Integrated Wiper‑Trip & Logging System | Wiper‑Trip and Logging in a Single Run

Shenkai has independently developed the LWT Integrated Wiper‑Trip & Logging System, which combines conventional wiper‑trip and logging operations into one single run. It effectively streamlines drilling‑logging workflows, shortens operating cycles, and improves operational efficiency. The system has successfully completed downhole field trials in complex wells in northwest China, with favourable results.

During the exhibition, Shenkai’s team held multiple rounds of face‑to‑face business discussions with KazMunayGas, local oilfield service providers, engineering companies, and customers from Russia and Uzbekistan. They had in‑depth exchanges on equipment supply, localised maintenance and repair services, and joint project development.

Central Asia is a major global energy hub and one of the core markets in Shenkai’s overseas strategy. KIOGE provides an efficient platform for Chinese oil and gas equipment companies to connect with regional partners. Leveraging its mature product portfolio and extensive project experience in Russian‑speaking regions, Shenkai will continue to focus on the actual needs of Central Asian customers, delivering reliable oil and gas equipment, technical solutions, and comprehensive after‑sales support as it further expands its presence in Central Asia’s energy market.
