MOSCOW, Aug 31 (PRIME) – The project of Tatneft and state oil and gas company of Kazakhstan Kazmunaigas, involving production of butadiene and its derivatives in Kazakhstan, is estimated at more than U.S.$800 million, Kazakhstan’s Energy Minister Nurlan Nogayev said on Tuesday.
Tatneft plans to produce butadiene rubber in the Atyrau Region of Kazakhstan by 2025, the company said in April. The planned production capacity is 186,000 tonnes of butadiene rubber and 170,000 tonnes of isobutane per year.
