MOSCOW, Jan 29 (Reuters) - Kazakhstan's state energy

company KazMunayGaz plans to export about 250,000 metric tons

(5,400 barrels per day) of oil from Kashagan oilfield via the

Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline in 2025, it said on Wednesday,

seeking to bypass Russia.

The offshore Kashagan field, one of the world's biggest

discoveries in recent decades, is being developed by Eni

, Shell, TotalEnergies, ExxonMobil ( XOM )

, KazMunayGaz, Inpex ( IPXHF ) and CNPC

.

The field produced about 378,500 barrels per day (bpd) in

2024, lower than its initially forecast capacity of 400,000 bpd.
