"TÜRKMENGEOLOGIÝA"

The National Leader of the Turkmen people, Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov, on behalf of the people and the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan, congratulated the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov on the Day of Turkmen Alabaý, widely <a href="https://tdh.gov.tm/ru/post/50167/prezidentu-turkmenistana-serdaru-berdymuhamedovu-111">celebrated</a> in the memorable year of enhancing the international authority of the Motherland and glorifying the national heritage in the world.The Hero-Arkadag wished the Head of State further great success in his activities to develop domestic dog breeding as an integral component of the unique cultural heritage of the Turkmen people. The message emphasizes that along with the «heavenly» Akhal-Teke horses and exquisite carpets, the fearless Turkmen alabaý is a national value reflecting the history, spiritual world, and way of life of the Turkmen people. Dog images discovered as a result of archaeological excavations at Altyndepe, Goňurdepe, Nusaý, Jeitun, Pessejikdepe, Şährislam, and other historical sites clearly testify to the ancestors' deep affection for this creature.As stated in the Message, under the leadership of the President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, work on preserving the elite breed — based on the rich experience of folk selection, maintaining purity of blood, and passing it down to future generations in its pristine form—is gaining ever greater momentum. The National Leader of the Turkmen people noted that Arkadagly Hero-Serdar attaches great importance to the revival and preservation of original dog-breeding traditions and the further improvement of this breed.The Message cites the establishment of a holiday in honor of the Turkmen alabaý in the national calendar, the holding of the international contest «Ýylyň türkmen edermen alabaýy», exhibitions, and conferences within its framework, as well as the conferral of honorary titles to dog breeders who have made a worthy contribution to improving breeding work and introducing the younger generation to the secrets of training craftsmanship, as confirmation of the success of state efforts in this direction. The opening of specialized centers in Turkmenistan, the improvement of breeding work, the development of veterinary services, and the expansion of international cooperation through the activities of the International Association «Türkmen alabaý itleri» significantly increase the capabilities for breeding purebred alabaýs.THe Hero-Arkadag Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov recalled the words of the Head of State that, being a universal heritage, Turkmen alabays rightfully belong among the elite breeds in the world. The international recognition of the Turkmen alabaý in the new historical Epoch, according to the National Leader of the Turkmen people, further elevates national pride. The inclusion of the art of breeding Turkmen alabaýs in the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, as noted in the Message, clearly testifies to the universal recognition of the rich breeding experience of the Turkmen people, the traditions of alabaý breeding, and the special reverence for them.The Hero-Arkadag expressed confidence that the successful solution of tasks for the systematic breeding of alabays using methods of folk selection and modern science will serve the further preservation and wide popularization in the world of the best traditions of the domestic dog-breeding school. The Day of Turkmen Alabaý in the year «Independent, Neutral Turkmenistan — the Homeland of Purposeful Winged Horses», the Message states, acquires special significance.Concluding the Message, the National Leader of the Turkmen people, Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov once again congratulated the President Serdar Berdimuhamedov on the Day of Turkmen Alabaý and wished him good health, long life, and unfailingly high authority, as well as success in his efforts to pass on the magnificence of Turkmen alabaýs to future generations.&nbsp;&nbsp;State News Agency of Turkmenistan&nbsp;

The Yagshygeldi Kakayev International Oil and Gas University, together with the Altyn Asyr TV channel of the State Committee of Turkmenistan for Television, Radio Broadcasting and Cinematography, has produced a political program on the historic significance of the working visits of President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov to the Republic of Azerbaijan and the Republic of Armenia.The program emphasizes that the Head of State’s visit to Baku on October 15 to attend the latest summit of the Conference on Interaction and Confidence Building Measures in Asia (CICA) was further evidence of Turkmenistan’s high standing in the international arena.CICA is a representative and authoritative intergovernmental forum aimed at strengthening peace, stability and cooperation in Asia. The Conference covers five main areas: political, economic, environmental, humanitarian, and countering new challenges. It serves as a convenient platform for multilateral, multi-vector dialogue. The participation of the Turkmen delegation in the forum demonstrates the country’s steadfast commitment to the principles of multilateral dialogue in discussing important issues on the regional and international agenda.CICA opens broad prospects for developing cooperation in such areas as transport and logistics, sustainable energy, ecology and the fight against climate change. As an observer state, Turkmenistan regards this platform as an effective tool for building trust and actively contributes to the development of balanced approaches to strengthening an atmosphere of mutual respect in Eurasia.On October 16, Arkadagly Hero Serdar took part in the Leaders’ Summit of the UN Biodiversity Conference in Yerevan. Relations between Turkmenistan and the Republic of Armenia are based on the traditional principles of friendship, mutual respect and trust. Regular high-level dialogue promotes active development of trade, economic, cultural and humanitarian cooperation, as well as interaction between the two countries within major international structures.The Yerevan summit aims to unite the efforts of the international community in protecting natural ecosystems. Amid growing threats linked to climate change, the platform allows heads of state to develop policy mechanisms for ensuring environmental sustainability worldwide.Environmental policy is one of the priority areas of Turkmenistan’s state development and is reflected in large-scale national programs. The country proceeds from the view that protecting the environment and using natural resources rationally are essential conditions for the well-being of present and future generations. Work in this area includes a broad set of measures to combat desertification, preserve biodiversity and use water resources efficiently.On the international stage, Turkmenistan regularly puts forward initiatives aimed at uniting the efforts of the international community on key environmental issues. These include proposals to establish a Regional Center for Climate Change Technologies in Central Asia and to develop a UN Special Programme for the Aral Sea Basin. Particular attention is paid to introducing the principles of a “green” economy, reducing carbon emissions and developing renewable energy. One prominent example of this work is the nationwide tree-planting campaigns: millions of saplings are planted every year, and green zones are being created around cities.As noted in the program, the participation of President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov in high-level events in Baku and Yerevan was another clear example of Turkmenistan’s high standing as a responsible participant in global cooperation. The proposals and initiatives voiced by the Head of State at the summits confirmed the country’s readiness for broad international cooperation for the sake of environmental well-being and sustainable development in the region and the world.

On October 21, Valerie Ducrot, Executive Director of the Global Gas Centre (GGC), delivered an address in Ashgabat at the OGT 2026 conference ("Oil and Gas of Turkmenistan"). According to the speaker, energy security is defined not by the sheer volume of energy in the world, but by whether it can reach consumers reliably, affordably, and sustainably: "A country is powered not by resources, but by connections."Speaking about the resource base, she cited estimates of Turkmenistan's proven gas reserves—ranging approximately from 11 to over 13 trillion cubic meters. By any authoritative assessment, the country ranks among the world's top five leaders, and the Galkynysh field is one of the largest globally. Exports to China alone exceed 30 billion cubic meters per year, making Turkmenistan one of the world's leading suppliers of pipeline gas. The speaker noted that such reserves constitute a strategic asset for the entire region, positioning Turkmenistan as a reliable long-term supplier for decades to come.She illustrated demand in neighboring countries as follows: Pakistan is home to around 240 million people, while India has over 1.4 billion. India aims to increase the share of gas in its energy mix from the current ~6% to 15% by 2030. Afghanistan, Iran, Uzbekistan, and the countries of Central Asia are modernizing their economies and expanding their power and industrial sectors. Gas, according to her, serves as fuel for power generation, feedstock for fertilizers and petrochemicals, a cleaner alternative to coal, and a flexible partner for renewable energy.Among infrastructure assets, the speaker highlighted the Central Asia–China gas pipeline, which has a design capacity of approximately 55 billion cubic meters per year passing through Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Kazakhstan: it transformed a landlocked nation into a supplier to the world's largest gas importer. The East–West gas pipeline linked production regions with export corridors, while a planned additional line to China will add another 30 billion cubic meters of capacity. As the GGC Executive Director noted, an integrated network enhances resilience, and cross-border infrastructure strengthens trust.She described reliance on a single route, market, or partner as a vulnerability. According to her, Turkmenistan is actively developing projects beyond its eastern route. The "Central Asia Gas Ring" project could establish an additional regional route for Turkmen gas to Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, and—provided connections are made—to Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, while maintaining existing export commitments. The speaker recalled that at the recent Consultative Meeting of the Heads of State of Central Asia and Azerbaijan, the President of Turkmenistan highlighted opportunities for cooperation in pipeline infrastructure and power supply, emphasizing the strengthening of energy ties to ensure energy security amid global market volatility. She called the Gas Ring "an ideal example of turning words into action."Regarding investment, the speaker emphasized the need for predictable regulation, bankable projects, and shared commitments from governments and companies. According to her, Turkmenistan is ready to build its own pipeline segments and is increasingly open to international partners. She separately stressed the necessity of reducing methane emissions across the entire gas value chain, which enhances the competitiveness of natural gas.The Executive Director of the Global Gas Centre outlined three key priorities:<ol><li>Build physical connections — expand and modernize gas networks and cross-border interconnectors, and advance flagship projects;</li><li>Enable investments — establish stable rules, transparent cooperation, and long-term commitments;</li><li>Diversify and connect — develop multiple export routes and integrated regional systems adhering to the highest environmental and efficiency standards.</li></ol>According to the speaker, the Global Gas Centre, operating as a neutral platform, stands ready to support these efforts: "Let us use this forum not only to discuss connectivity, but to advance it."

Executive Director of the Global Gas Centre Calls Central Asia Gas Ring a New Route for Turkmen Gas

Chairman of the State Concern “Turkmengas” Maksat Babayev, speaking at the opening plenary session “Energy Strategy of Turkmenistan: Regional Connectivity and International Cooperation” of the 31st International Conference “Oil and Gas of Turkmenistan — OGT 2026” in Ashgabat, stated that the key priorities of the country’s energy sector include efficient use of gas resources, development of gas chemical production and introduction of environmentally responsible technologies.He noted that global energy markets are adapting to new conditions, while growing demand for reliable energy supplies increases the role of natural gas in ensuring energy security and supporting the transition towards lower-carbon development.Maksat Babayev emphasised that Turkmenistan’s rich natural gas resources create broad opportunities for expanding international cooperation, while the country’s energy policy is focused on modernising production capacities, diversifying export routes and attracting advanced technologies.The head of “Turkmengas” highlighted the importance of natural gas processing and the production of high value-added products.
