The first mention of oil in Turkmenistan, more precisely on the eastern shore of the Caspian Sea, dates back to the 18th century. There is evidence that in 1782, 20 oil wells were used on Cheleken (popularly called “oil island”), from which up to 4,000 poods of oil a year were extracted. The oil was shipped in wineskins (bags made of animal skin) by boats – prototypes of modern tankers.

Any work ennobles people, strengthens their self-esteem and the ability to achieve goals and develops labor discipline. And that is not everything. With their hard work, the workers of the underground and major repair of wells of the Lebapgazçykaryş Directorate of the Türkmengaz State Concern also ennoble the chronicle of independent Turkmenistan, marking the success of this year, which is passing under the motto “Fount of Wisdom Magtymguly Pyragy”.

Specialists of the Kukurtli linear production site of the Lebapgazçykaryş Directorate of the Türkmengaz State Concern show their high skill and diligence in solving the responsible task of increasing the production of natural gas, which is the country’s enormous wealth, and delivering it to consumers. Thanks to their joint efforts, the completed reporting period of the current year was again marked by success. Line production workers take leading positions in the Directorate.

Turkmenistan is successfully implementing large-scale reforms in all areas, including the fuel and energy sector. In the successful implementation of the plans, aimed at the large-scale development of the oil and gas industry and its integration into the international energy system, a significant contribution is made by the labor collectives of the directorates of the Nebitgazdüýpliabatlaýyş Trust of the Türkmennebit State Concern, which conduct effective work at the fields in the Balkan velayat.

The path of development

THE PATH OF DEVELOPMENT

Gas workers of the Daşoguzşähergaz Gas Supply Organization of the Daşoguzgazüpjünçilik Directorate mark their workdays with worthy successes. Vivid evidence of this is the daily work of the friendly team to uninterruptedly supply organizations and enterprises of the administrative center of Dashoguz velayat, the city of Dashoguz, and the population of the bank of the Shabbat canal with natural gas. The results of the activities of the Organization’s gas workers for five months of the current year are evidence of this.

In accordance with the economic strategy of the President of Turkmenistan, solving tasks of diversifying the entire national economic complex of our country is aimed at increasing the volume and expanding the range of manufactured products that are in great demand abroad. In this regard, the leader of the domestic fuel and energy industry, the Turkmenbashi complex of oil refineries (TCOR) of the Türkmennebit State Concern, carries out large-scale activities.

The gas industry, being one of the largest sectors of the country’s national economy, plays an important role in ensuring the prosperous life of the Turkmen people and achieving the prosperity of our Motherland. Under the leadership of President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, who worthily continues the initiatives of the Hero-Arkadag, large investments are being made in the further development of this sector, the discovery and development of new hydrocarbon deposits and the introduction of environmentally friendly innovative technologies into the industry.

At the Seydi oil refinery, work is being carried out at a high pace to produce through the processing of hydrocarbon raw materials petroleum products that are in great demand in the domestic and foreign markets. The indicators of the three months of the current year, being held under the motto “Fount of Wisdom Magtymguly Pyragy”, leave no doubt that the dedicated work and enormous efforts of the united team of this Enterprise are rewarded a hundredfold.

During the period of the dynamic development of our country, the city of Shatlyk in the Mary velayat is expanding and acquiring a new look. It is worth noting the planned work carried out by the employees of the Housing and Communal Office of the Marygazçykaryş Directorate to improve the city and to provide the population with comfortable social and living conditions. Residents of the city are uninterruptedly provided with clean drinking water; in accordance with the requirements, the bioremediation of household wastewater from the sewer system is carried out.

Turkmenistan occupies one of the leading positions in the world in terms of hydrocarbon resources. This allows us to increase the extraction and production of valuable products and their supply to domestic and foreign markets.

At the 309.7th kilometer of the Tejen–Mary section of the Ashgabat–Turkmenabat expressway in the Mary etrap, Mary velayat, two new gas stations, built by order of the Vekilbazar Oil Products Enterprise of the Türkmennebitönümleri Main Directorate of the Türkmennebit State Concern, have been put into operation. This became a wonderful gift for car owners in the year of celebrating the 33rd anniversary of the independence of our Motherland.

Gas workers of the gas supply organizations of Saparmurat Turkmenbashi, Ruhubelent, Koneurgench, Shabat and Gerogly etraps of the Daşoguzgazüpjünçilik Directorate are work in an organized manner to provide liquefied gas to residents of settlements, located in remote areas, and livestock breeders being in pastures in the Karakum sands, on the bank of Lake Sarykamysh and in the Botendag area.
