Chapter 1. General provisions
1. These Criteria for assessing the degree of risk when conducting subsoil use operations in the field of hydrocarbons (hereinafter - the Criteria) have been developed in accordance with paragraph 5 of Article 141 of the Entrepreneurial Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan (hereinafter - the Entrepreneurial Code), the Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan “On Subsoil and Subsoil Use” (hereinafter - the Code) and the Rules for the formation by regulatory state bodies of a risk assessment and management system, approved by order of the acting Minister of National Economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated June 22, 2022 № 48 (registered in the Register of state registration of regulatory legal acts № 28577) for the purpose of classifying the subjects (objects) ) of control in the field of control during subsoil use operations in the field of hydrocarbons according to the degree of risk.
2. The Criteria use the following concepts:
1) a subject of control - individuals or legal entities that have the right to conduct subsoil use operations in the field of hydrocarbons, as well as individuals or legal entities whose right to conduct subsoil use operations has been terminated;
2) score – a quantitative measure of risk calculation;
3) non-significant violations – violations related to:
non-compliance with the requirement to send annual reports to the authorized body in the field of hydrocarbons on the implementation of programs for the development of crude gas processing;
non-compliance with the requirement for independent testing of each productive layer during layer testing and wells testing (for the period established by the project document, but not more than 90 (ninety) days for each test object with a complex of field geological and hydrodynamic studies);
the absence in the technological operating mode of wells of a technological norm for liquid extraction - for each production well and the volume of injected displacing agent (pick–up rate) - for each injection well;
the absence of technological operating modes of production wells, compiled monthly or once a quarter, depending on the stability of the development conditions of the facility. Simultaneously with the technological operating modes of production wells, a plan of geological and technical measures shall be drawn up and approved to ensure the standards for liquid extraction from wells and the production facility as a whole;
non-compliance with the requirements for the formation of a tender commission in accordance with the procedure for the acquisition by subsoil users and their contractors of goods, works and services used in conducting hydrocarbon exploration or production operations;
non-compliance with the requirements for placing an announcement about an open tender and tender documentation in the register (system) in accordance with the procedure for the acquisition by subsoil users and their contractors of goods, works and services used in conducting operations for exploration or production of hydrocarbons;
4) normalization of data – a statistical procedure that involves bringing values measured on various scales to a conventionally common scale;
5) significant violations - violations related to non-compliance with the mandatory norms of the Code;
6) gross violations - violations related to non-compliance with the prohibitory norm of the Code;
7) risk – the probability of causing harm as a result of the activities of the subject of control to human life or health, the environment, the legitimate interests of individuals and legal entities, the property interests of the state, taking into account the severity of its consequences;
8) criteria for assessing the degree of risk - a set of quantitative and qualitative indicators related to the direct activities of the subject of control, features of industry development and factors influencing this development, allowing the subjects (objects) of control to be classified as different degrees of risk;
9) objective criteria for assessing the degree of risk (hereinafter- the objective criteria) - criteria for assessing the degree of risk used to select subjects (objects) of control depending on the degree of risk in a certain field of activity and not directly dependent on the individual subject (object) of control;
10) subjective criteria for assessing the degree of risk (hereinafter - the subjective criteria) - criteria for assessing the degree of risk used to select subjects (objects) of control depending on the results of the activities of a particular subject (object) of control;
11) risk assessment and management system - the process of making management decisions aimed at reducing the likelihood of adverse factors occurring by distributing subjects (objects) of control according to the degree of risk for subsequent implementation of preventive control with a visit to the subject (object) of control in order to limit the freedom of entrepreneurship to the minimum possible degree, while ensuring an acceptable level of risk in relevant areas of activity, as well as aimed at changing the level of risk for a particular subject (object) of control and (or) releasing such a subject (object) of control from preventive control with a visit to the subject (object) of control.
Footnote. Paragraph 2 is in the wording of the joint order of the Minister of Energy of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated 31.05.2023 № 201 and the Minister of National Economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated 01.06.2023 № 95 (shall be enforced upon expiry of ten calendar days after the day of its first official publication).3. For the purposes of risk management when carrying out preventive control with a visit to the subject (object) of control, the subjects (objects) of control belong to one of the following degrees of risk (hereinafter - the degree of risk):
1) high risk;
2) medium risk;
3) low risk.
4. Criteria for assessing the degree of risk for conducting preventive control of subjects (objects) of control shall be formed by determining objective and subjective criteria.
Chapter 2. Objective criteria
5. Determination of objective criteria shall be carried out by determining risk.
6. Risk determination shall be carried out taking into account one of the following criteria:
1) level of danger (complexity) of the object;
2) the scale of severity of possible negative consequences, harm to the regulated area (region);
3) the possibility of an unfavorable incident for human life or health, the environment, the legitimate interests of individuals and legal entities, and the state.
7. Subjects of control that are individuals or legal entities that have the right to conduct subsoil use operations for the production of hydrocarbons (having a subsoil use contract) shall be classified as high degree of risk.
Subjects of control that are individuals or legal entities that have the right to conduct subsoil use operations for hydrocarbon exploration (having a subsoil use contract) shall be classified as medium degree of risk.
Subjects of control, that are individuals or legal entities whose right to conduct subsoil use operations in the field of hydrocarbons has been terminated, shall be classified as low degree of risk.
8. In relation to subjects (objects) of control classified as high and medium risk, subjective criteria shall be applied in order to conduct preventive control with a visit to the subject (object) of control.
Chapter 3. Subjective criteria
9. Determination of subjective criteria shall be carried out using the following steps:
1) formation of a database and collection of information;
2) information analysis and risk assessment;
10. Formation of a database and collection of information is necessary to identify subjects (objects) of control that violate the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
To assess the degree of risk for conducting preventive control with visits to subjects (objects) of control, the following sources of information shall be used:
1) results of monitoring the reporting and information submitted by the subject of control to the authorized body in the field of hydrocarbons;
2) results of previous inspections and preventive control with visits to subjects (objects) of control. At the same time, the severity of violations (Gross, Significant, Non-significant) shall be established in case of non-compliance with the requirements of legislation reflected in the checklists.
To assess the degree of risk to conduct verification for compliance with permitting requirements, a source of information shall be used - the results of previous inspections. At the same time, the severity of violations (Cross, Significant, Non-significant) shall be established in case of non-compliance with the requirements of the legislation reflected in the checklists.
Footnote. Paragraph 10 is in the wording of the joint order of the Minister of Energy of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated 31.05.2023 № 201 and the Minister of National Economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated 01.06.2023 № 95 (shall be enforced upon expiry of ten calendar days after the day of its first official publication).11. The calculation of the risk level indicator according to subjective criteria (R) shall be carried out in an automated mode by summing the risk level indicator for violations based on the results of previous inspections (SP) and the risk level indicator according to subjective criteria (SC), with subsequent normalization of data values in the range from 0 up to 100 points.
Rprom = SP + SC, where
Rprom - an intermediate indicator of the degree of risk according to subjective criteria,
SP – indicator of the degree of risk for violations,
SC is an indicator of the degree of risk according to subjective criteria.
The calculation is made for each subject (object) of control of a homogeneous group of subjects (objects) of control of each sphere of state control. In this case, the list of assessed subjects (objects) of control related to a homogeneous group of subjects (objects) of control of one sphere of state control forms a sample set (sample) for subsequent data normalization.
Based on the data obtained from the results of previous inspections, an indicator of the degree of risk for violations shall be formed, assessed in points from 0 to 100.
If one gross violation is detected from any of the sources of information specified in paragraph 10 of these criteria, the subject of control shall be assigned a risk indicator of 100 points and preventive control shall be carried out in respect of it with a visit to the subject (object) of control.
If gross violations are not detected, the risk level indicator for violations shall be calculated by the total indicator for violations of a significant and non-significant degree.
When determining the indicator of significant violations, a coefficient of 0.7 shall be applied.
This indicator is calculated using the following formula:
SРз = (SР2 х 100/SР1) х 0,7, where:
SРз – indicator of significant violations;
SР1– required number of significant violations;
SР2– number of detected significant violations;
When determining the indicator of non-significant violations, a coefficient of 0.3 shall be applied.
This indicator is calculated using the following formula:
SРн = (SР2 х 100/SР1) х 0,3, where:
SРн – indicator of non-significant violations;
SР1– required number of non-significant violations;
SР2– number of detected non-significant violations;
The violation risk indicator (SP) shall be calculated on a scale from 0 to 100 points and shall be determined by summing the indicators of significant and non-significant violations using the following formula:
SP = SPs + SPn, where:
SP– indicator of the degree of risk for violations;
SPs – indicator of significant violations;
SPn - indicator of non-significant violations.
The obtained value of total indicator shall be the basis for classifying a business entity to one of the following degrees of risk:
1) to a high degree of risk - with a risk degree indicator from 71 to 100 inclusive and in relation to it, preventive control shall be carried out with a visit to the subject (object) of control;
2) to a medium degree of risk - with a risk degree indicator from 31 to 70 inclusive and in relation to it, preventive control shall be carried out with a visit to the subject (object) of control;
3) to a low degree of risk - with a risk degree indicator from 0 to 30 inclusive and in relation to it no preventive control shall be carried out with a visit to the subject (object) of control.
Based on the priority of the applied sources of information and the significance of the indicators of subjective criteria, in accordance with the procedure for calculating the risk degree indicator according to subjective criteria, the risk degree indicator according to subjective criteria shall be calculated on a scale from 0 to 100 points.
The calculation of the risk degree indicator according to subjective criteria shall be made on a scale from 0 to 100 points and shall be carried out using the following formula:
xi – subjective criterion indicator,
wi – specific weight of the subjective criterion indicator,
n – number of indicators.
The obtained value of the risk degree indicator according to subjective criteria shall be included in the calculation of the risk degree indicator according to subjective criteria.
The indicator values calculated for subjects (objects) shall be normalized to a range from 0 to 100 points. Data normalization shall be carried out for each sample population (sample) using the following formula:
R – risk degree indicator (final) according to the subjective criteria of an individual subject (object) of control,
Rmax – the maximum possible value on the risk degree scale according to subjective criteria for subjects (objects) included in one sample population (sample) (upper limit of the scale),
Rmin – the minimum possible value on the risk degree scale according to subjective criteria for subjects (objects) included in one sample population (sample) (lower limit of the scale),
Rprom - an intermediate indicator of the degree of risk according to subjective criteria.
The degree of violation of requirements for entities when conducting subsoil use operations in the field of hydrocarbons on land in relation to individuals or legal entities who have the right to conduct subsoil use operations for hydrocarbon exploration in accordance with Appendix 1 to these Criteria.
The degree of violation of requirements for subjects when conducting subsoil use operations in the field of hydrocarbons on land in relation to individuals or legal entities who have the right to conduct subsoil use operations for hydrocarbon production in accordance with Appendix 2 to these Criteria.
The degree of violation of requirements for subjects when conducting subsoil use operations in the field of hydrocarbons at sea in relation to individuals or legal entities who have the right to conduct subsoil use operations for hydrocarbon exploration in accordance with Appendix 3 to these Criteria.
The degree of violation of requirements for subjects when conducting subsoil use operations in the field of hydrocarbons at sea in relation to individuals or legal entities who have the right to conduct subsoil use operations for hydrocarbon production in accordance with Appendix 4 to these Criteria.
The degree of violation of requirements for subjects when conducting subsoil use operations in the field of hydrocarbons in relation to individuals or legal entities that have permission to create and locate offshore facilities in accordance with Appendix 5 to these Criteria.
The priority of the applied sources of information and the significance of the indicators of subjective criteria shall be established according to the list of subjective criteria for determining the degree of risk according to subjective criteria, which are given in Appendices 6, 7, 8 and 9 to these Criteria.
When analyzing and assessing, data from subjective criteria that were previously taken into account and used in relation to a specific subject (object) of control or data for which the statute of limitations has expired in accordance with paragraph 1 of Article 178 of the Civil Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan shall not be used.
In relation to subjects of control that have eliminated in full the violations issued based on the results of the previous preventive control with a visit, their inclusion in the formation of lists for the next period of state control shall not be allowed.
The frequency of preventive control with a visit to the subject (object) of control shall be determined by the control body in relation to subjects (objects) of control classified as high risk, no more than once a year.
Analysis of the information received and assessment of indicators shall be carried out twice a year until the first of May and until the first of December of the reporting year.
If a preventive control with a visit was previously carried out in relation to the subject (object) of control, the analyzed period shall be the period from the day after the end date of the last preventive control with a visit until the start of the analysis.
Preventive control with a visit to the subject (object) of control shall be carried out on the basis of semi-annual lists of preventive control with a visit to the subject (object) of control, formed in accordance with paragraph 4 of Article 144-2 of the Code.
