The issues of the petrochemical industry development of the
Republic of Kazakhstan by creating a petrochemical cluster in the western
oil and gas region of the country are studied. The issues of creating a
petrochemical cluster in Kazakhstan and creating an integrated
petrochemical complex in the Atyrau region are considered. The essence of
the cluster approach as the main factor in increasing the regional
competitiveness of the Atyrau region is revealed, and the expediency and
efficiency of creating a petrochemical cluster and an integrated
petrochemical complex are substantiated. The stages of construction of an
integrated petrochemical complex are described depending on the sources of
supply of raw materials used. A schematic diagram of the formation of a
petrochemical cluster in Kazakhstan is created. The main groups of factors
substantiating the possibilities and economic expediency of creating a
petrochemical cluster, which ensures the high profitability of this industry,
are determined. It is shown that the innovative petrochemical cluster makes
it possible to accelerate the diversification of the economy and the activation
of non-primary, high-tech industries.
