Oil and gas

In Kazakhstan, there is a situation where local universities and scientific laboratories have accumulated a significant amount of research and development, suitable for domestic fields and oil refineries. On the other hand, enterprises in Kazakhstan are in need of tailor-made developments that increase the efficiency of production and processing. The reason for this, according to experts, is that scientific institutions do not have the skills to promote their own scientific research. In addition, in Kazakhstan, the infrastructure for the commercialization of scientific developments does not work effectively: enterprises that are ready to acquire patents cannot find them. To overcome this situation, it is advisable to organize R&D centers for effective mediation between production and science. 

The novelty of the profession: combining tasks and separating them into a separate area: integrating research and development with oil and gas enterprises. 

Key competencies:

  • Determination of priority areas for research
  • Negotiating with enterprises on research and testing on their basis and implementation of developments
  • Determination of the parameters of the final development result
  • Coordination of research and development processes Interaction with the customer in the development process Monitoring the implementation of developments at the customer
  • Participation in the preparation of reports on the effectiveness of implementation
  • Protection of reports to the customer

Intersectoral communication

Lean manufacturing is an enterprise management concept based on the constant search, reduction or elimination of losses. Losses are understood to mean those actions, processes or operations that consume resources (human, temporary, material, etc.), but do not add value to the end or intermediate consumer.

Lean manufacturing changes the approach to managing the enterprise’s efficiency from extensive (working more and faster) to intensive (working more efficiently, that is, doing only what is necessary and not doing what can be done without).

Professionals with lean competencies will be able to increase the efficiency of departments or enterprises as a whole without attracting large investments. The relevance of lean management methods is growing because traditional management methods have already reached their peak, further business development will increasingly focus on intensive development and lean improvement methods.
