ASSESSMENT OF THE PERFORMANCE OF FOREIGN-ECONOMIC ACTIVITY OF GAS SECTOR COMPANIES IN THE REPUBLIC OF KAZAKHSTAN

Abstract

The foreign-economic activity (FEA) of Kazakhstan’s gas sector has become a decisive factor for national economic resilience and regional energy stability. Situated between the European and Asian markets, Kazakhstan possesses abundant natural gas resources but remains dependent on limited transit corridors. In this context, assessing the resultivity of export operations requires an integrative model that unites production, financial, infrastructural, and sustainability indicators. Traditional evaluations focused on export volume or price fail to capture the full spectrum of competitiveness in an era defined by decarbonization and digital transformation [1].
