Qarmet JSC, based in Kazakhstan, extracts, refines or transports oil, gas and coal. Climate TRACE attributes 6 high-emitting assets to it. Its largest tracked activities are electricity generation and coal mining.

Produces fossil fuelsOil, gas and coal are extracted, processed and moved at scale.
Methane can leakProduction and transport can release methane — a very potent short-term greenhouse gas.
Burned downstreamWhen the fuels are used elsewhere, they release large amounts of CO₂.

How it's allowed

Signals below are derived from emissions data and ownership coverage only — not from any legal or regulatory finding.

Permitted Emissions
These emissions appear to occur under existing permits and regulations. Operating legally is not the same as operating cleanly.
Coal Dependence
A significant share of attributed emissions is linked to coal mining — among the most carbon-intensive energy sources.
Methane Exposure
Oil and gas operations can release methane, a greenhouse gas far more potent than CO₂ over the short term. Leakage is often under-measured.
Improving Trajectory
Attributed emissions are falling (~3%/yr) — an improving trajectory, though absolute output remains large.
Low Measurement Confidence
Measurement confidence for this entity is low; figures are best-available estimates.
No Verified Enforcement or Lobbying Record
This dataset contains no verified enforcement actions, lobbying records, subsidies, or litigation for this entity. Absence of evidence here is not evidence of compliance or of any violation.

Climate Villains makes no claim that any entity has broken any law. These are data-derived signals, not allegations.

Attributed emissions are falling by about +3% per year. Attributed emissions, 2022–2024.

It ranks #576 mainly because its attributed assets emitted about 4.4 Mt CO₂e in 2024 (≈ 954k cars/yr).

The Climate Damage Score is driven by that absolute size on a log scale, with a -0.3-point improving adjustment.

Data confidence
How sure we are about the measurement. A low score doesn't lower the polluter's rank — it just shows the data is fuzzier.

What we know · what we don't

What we know

  • Attributed emissions: 4.4 Mt CO₂e in 2024 (≈ 954k cars/yr).
  • Primary sector: Fossil Fuels; primary country: Kazakhstan.
  • Evidence: 6 assets; ~100% ownership-attribution coverage.
  • Source: Climate TRACE (CC BY 4.0).

What we don’t

  • Exact ownership percentages — Climate TRACE lists owners but not stakes, so shared assets are split equally.
  • Indirect (supply-chain / financed / product-use) emissions are not included.
  • No PR claims, lobbying records, litigation history or policy-compliance data are included.
