Turkmenistan and Saudi Arabia discussed prospects for bilateral cooperation

On August 12, the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov sent a congratulatory message to the participants and guests of the scientific and practical conference «Protection of the Caspian Sea Ecosystem: Regional Cooperation and Sustainable Development», held to mark the Caspian Sea Day. The day is celebrated in Turkmenistan at a high level every year on August 12, commemorating the entry into force of the Framework Convention for the Protection of the Marine Environment of the Caspian Sea.The message notes that the Caspian Sea is widely known as a sea of peace, friendship and goodwill cooperation — a treasure with unique natural features, rich biological diversity, and economic and geopolitical significance that has united the peoples living along its shores, creating conditions for the development of trade, economic, cultural and humanitarian ties among them.The first Caspian Summit was held in Ashgabat in April 2002 on Turkmenistan's initiative. It became a milestone in cooperation among the Caspian littoral states, paving the way for political dialogue, strengthening mutual trust, determining the legal status of the Caspian Sea, and creating an international legal framework for protecting the marine environment. The message cites the adoption of the Convention on the Legal Status of the Caspian Sea and the Framework Convention for the Protection of the Marine Environment of the Caspian Sea as a vivid example of effective cooperation among the Caspian states.Turkmenistan attaches special importance to developing international partnership to improve the ecological condition of the Caspian Sea. Its initiatives and efforts in this field were reflected in the first Caspian Environmental Forum, held in 2012 at the National Tourist Zone «Awaza», which contributed to the exchange of experience in protecting the Caspian ecosystem and environment, advancing scientific research, and expanding cooperation between government agencies and international organizations.Turkmenistan has also put forward initiatives for the effective use of the Caspian region's economic potential and for developing partnership in transport and logistics, energy, industry and trade. The first Caspian Economic Forum was held on Turkmenistan's initiative on August 12, 2019, at the National Tourist Zone «Awaza», opening new opportunities for trade and economic ties among the Caspian states; participants discussed prospects for cooperation in transport, energy, investment, tourism and other areas. The sixth Caspian Summit was held in Ashgabat on June 29, 2022, where the high-level meeting identified directions for further cooperation in the political, economic, environmental and humanitarian spheres.The message emphasizes that Turkmenistan is steadily increasing the importance of the Caspian Sea in the international transport system. The modern capabilities of Turkmenbashi International Seaport are helping turn Turkmenistan into one of the key transport and logistics hubs between Europe and Asia, contributing to the expansion of trade and economic ties among the region's states and the development of international transport routes.Global environmental challenges — climate change, protection of water resources, and prevention of marine pollution — require, as the message notes, joint efforts not only from individual states but from the entire international community. Preserving the Caspian Sea's unique ecosystem, biodiversity, and rare species of flora and fauna is among Turkmenistan's priorities, and the country actively cooperates on this with international organizations and states of the Caspian region. The message names the Caspian Ecological Initiative, promoted by Turkmenistan, as an important step in protecting the marine ecosystem, uniting efforts, and preserving this natural heritage for future generations.According to the President, the current conference and other events dedicated to Caspian Sea Day are important for protecting and scientifically studying the sea's natural resources, ensuring a favorable ecological environment, and developing friendly relations among the Caspian states. The President Serdar Berdimuhamedov once again congratulated the participants on the Caspian Sea Day, wishing them good health, family well-being and success in their work.

Turkmenistan is paying close attention to the development of its electric power industry: work is underway to ensure reliable, uninterrupted supply to domestic consumers, as well as to increase exports of surplus electricity abroad and expand export destinations. As part of this work, the country has created a unified ring-shaped power grid linking the power systems of the velayats.The Concept for the Development of Turkmenistan's Electric Power Industry for 2013–2020 has been successfully implemented. Work was carried out to link the power systems of the velayats into a ring configuration for mutual backup within the national power grid. Eight gas turbine power plants of varying capacity were built and commissioned within a short time in Ahal, Lebap and Mary velayats. They ensure reliable power supply to consumers, generate environmentally friendly energy, strengthen the reliability of power supply in the regions and create new jobs.Power transmission lines currently operate along the Ashgabat–Mary–Lebap–Dashoguz route, linking the power systems of these regions. Implementation of the ring power grid project along the Ahal–Balkan and Balkan–Dashoguz routes, northwest of Ashgabat, has made it possible to create a unified power system for Turkmenistan, ensuring the distribution of capacity among the velayats and its stable operation.Turkmenistan attaches great importance to international cooperation in electric power with the world's leading countries. The Turkish company «Çalik Enerji Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş.» has carried out a number of major energy projects in the country: it built two power plants in Ahal velayat, together with the US company General Electric erected the country's first combined-cycle power plant on the site of the Mary State Power Plant, and built a maintenance and repair center for electrical equipment in the Buzmeyin etrap of the capital. The same company is now building the country's first multifunctional solar-wind power plant in Balkan velayat and has also been tasked with constructing a combined-cycle power plant in Turkmenbashy etrap.The opening of the city of Arkadag has become a powerful driver for developing the country's industrial and innovative economy, and Turkmen entrepreneurs are actively supporting this effort. Turkmenistan's electronics industry is gaining momentum year on year, moving the country to a new technological level and expanding capacity to produce import-substituting and export goods. The electric power industry is also linked to selling electricity on foreign markets, and Turkmenistan is expanding the scale of its international energy cooperation.The development of Turkmenistan's electric power industry is proceeding alongside expanding international cooperation and growing electricity exports abroad, and the sector's growth is helping to strengthen the country's industrial and innovative economy.&nbsp;&nbsp;Source: «Nebit-gaz» newspaper

Turkmenistan's electric power industry continues to develop

Modernizing Turkmenistan's oil and gas complex, expanding its production capacity and strengthening its competitiveness remain among the key directions of the large-scale economic policy pursued by the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov. The National Program for the Socio-Economic Development of Turkmenistan for 2022-2052, «Revival of a New Epoch of a Powerful State», and the Program of the President of Turkmenistan for the Socio-Economic Development of the Country in 2022-2028 identify the introduction of digital systems and knowledge-intensive innovative technologies across all sectors of the national economy as an important area of state policy. To make rational use of hydrocarbon resources and improve the efficiency of field development, advanced technical and technological solutions proven in global practice are being successfully introduced in the country's oil and gas industry.Smart well technology is an innovative system that includes a variety of measuring instruments and actuators integrated into well completion equipment, along with a surface digital system. Its main purpose is continuous monitoring of reservoir temperature and pressure and remote flow control without the need for geophysical surveys or workover operations on costly, high-risk wells.The technology's main advantage is a unique method of downhole measurement that requires no electronics: sensitive quartz elements, free of active microchips and semiconductors, are lowered into the wellbore's near-bottomhole zone. All operations are converted into digital signals and transmitted to a surface recording unit, which eliminates thermal degradation of electronics and ensures an equipment service life of more than 10 years.The system includes high-precision quartz pressure and temperature gauges with a measurement range of up to 130 MPa and up to +250°C, a distributed "Termokosa" system with up to 200 modules on a single cable and a resolution better than 0.005°C, as well as compact electric flow-control valves. Valves with an outer diameter of 89 millimeters make it possible to isolate zones in an open hole or in 114-millimeter liners and regulate flow according to a chosen scheme. The surface recording unit operates in a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is powered by an autonomous energy supply system based on solar panels and a wind generator.The use of this technology in developing gas and gas condensate fields in Turkmenistan is of strategic importance. Smart well technology makes it possible to identify and isolate watered-out intervals to prevent hydrate formation and well self-killing. It operates reliably under complex high-pressure, high-temperature conditions, ensures autonomous operation at remote desert fields, and allows the drainage profile to be balanced, significantly increasing the ultimate gas recovery factor.&nbsp;&nbsp;Source: «Nebit-gaz» newspaper

Turkmenistan introduces «smart» well technology in oil and gas sector

The year, held under the motto «Independent neutral Turkmenistan − the homeland of purposeful winged horses», marks a new stage in the country's social and economic development. Macroeconomic achievements recorded during the first half of the year, the implementation of major infrastructure projects, and the expansion of international cooperation demonstrate the consistent execution of Turkmenistan's sustainable development strategy.In Turkmen society, the Akhal-Teke horse is regarded not only as a national symbol of pride but also as an embodiment of the country's historical, cultural, and spiritual heritage. For this reason, the image of the swift steed has become a metaphor for Turkmenistan's modern development, representing forward movement, confidence, and a vision for the future. This approach reflects the unity of national values and state policy.Over recent years, large-scale construction projects have been carried out across all regions of Turkmenistan. Alongside new residential districts, educational, healthcare, and cultural facilities, the country has commissioned industrial enterprises for agricultural processing, grain elevators, and water desalination plants. These initiatives contribute not only to strengthening the national economy but also to steadily improving the quality of life for the population.Transport development remains another key pillar of the country's growth strategy. The construction of modern highways and railways, the expansion of international transit corridors, and the enhancement of logistics infrastructure are positioning Turkmenistan as one of Eurasia's important transport and logistics hubs. This creates new opportunities for regional trade and broader economic cooperation.A distinctive feature of Turkmenistan's development model is the adoption of a national motto for each year. Beyond defining the year's guiding theme, it serves as an important mechanism for aligning society with the country's strategic priorities. Independence, permanent neutrality, youth policy, and the promotion of national values remain central elements of public life and state development.International initiatives such as "Dialogue is a Guarantee of Peace" and "Peace Through Development" have become defining features of Turkmenistan's foreign policy. These concepts have gained broad international recognition as effective diplomatic tools for strengthening mutual trust, promoting cooperation, and fostering peace. As a result, Turkmenistan is widely regarded by numerous countries and leading international organizations as a reliable and responsible partner.The energy sector continues to serve as the primary driver of the country's economic growth. With substantial hydrocarbon reserves, Turkmenistan is strengthening its position in global energy markets while placing particular emphasis on diversifying export routes. This strategy is designed to enhance energy security and support long-term international partnerships.One of the most significant pillars of Turkmenistan's energy cooperation is the Turkmenistan–China international gas pipeline. Commissioned in December 2009, the pipeline connected the resources of the world-class Galkynysh gas field with international markets. Since then, energy cooperation between the two countries has continued to expand, becoming a strategically important component of regional energy security.At the same time, Turkmenistan continues extensive work on developing new oil and gas fields, constructing modern gas transportation infrastructure, and expanding export routes. Diversifying pathways for delivering energy resources to global markets remains one of the country's key long-term economic priorities.Another project of strategic importance is the Turkmenistan–Afghanistan–Pakistan–India (TAPI) gas pipeline. The full implementation of this major regional energy initiative is expected not only to expand exports of Turkmen natural gas but also to accelerate economic growth, create new jobs, and improve living standards across all participating countries.Turkmenistan's current development strategy integrates economic modernization, advanced infrastructure development, energy diplomacy, and the promotion of peaceful international cooperation into a unified framework. Through this approach, the country continues to strengthen its sustainable development model while aligning national priorities with active engagement in the international community.Muhammetmyrat AtagarryyevChief Specialist of the General Department of the «Turkmennebit» State Concern Chairman of the Primary Party Organization of the «Turkmennebit» State Concern of the Democratic Party of Turkmenistan

Oil and gas production in Turkmenistan has traditionally been linked to the Middle Pliocene sedimentary complex, known as the red-bed sequence. In recent years, however, Mesozoic deposits have grown increasingly significant, seen as a promising direction for expanding the country's resource base.This is based primarily on oil inflows recorded in Upper Cretaceous deposits of the Kura Depression and the North Absheron fold zone, as well as in Cretaceous and Jurassic deposits at the Oymasha field in Kazakhstan. In addition, deep drilling at a number of sites in South-Western Turkmenistan has revealed significant oil and gas indications within Mesozoic deposits.On the onshore part of South-Western Turkmenistan, more than 70 percent of initial total oil reserves have been explored in Pliocene deposits, while Mesozoic deposits currently account for about 60 percent of predicted hydrocarbon reserves. These figures point to the need to expand geological exploration in the near term — a significant reserve for increasing the country's resource base.According to geophysical surveys, the thickness of Mesozoic deposits within the West Turkmen Depression is at least 10-12 kilometers, indicating a high rate of sediment accumulation. A direct link has been established between the distribution of deposit thickness and the location of oil-bearing facies: oil-bearing areas of the basin coincide with zones of thick sediment accumulation and areas of prolonged, rapid crustal subsidence. Rapid subsidence of deposits raises pressure and temperature — one of the key conditions for oil formation.This depression remains Turkmenistan's largest and only oil and gas producing region, hosting numerous oil and gas fields in Cenozoic deposits. Scientists believe hydrocarbons formed mainly in the deeper-lying Mesozoic deposits, migrating to upper horizons through faults, fractures and mud volcano channels.Mesozoic deposits accumulated amid prolonged, steady basin subsidence under reducing or weakly reducing geochemical conditions, as indicated by the lithofacies characteristics of the section and the substantial thickness of the deposits. Similar geostructural and facies conditions have been noted in Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Iran and other nearby oil and gas regions, where major oil fields are associated with internal geosynclinal and foothill depressions.Further evidence of the promise of Mesozoic deposits comes from tests at well No. 23 at the Garadepe field, which showed signs of oil and gas presence. Thick reservoir layers have also been noted in Lower Cretaceous and Jurassic deposits, overlain by clay rock sequences of Upper Cretaceous, Paleogene and Miocene deposits. In terms of lithological composition and reservoir properties, carbonate rocks predominate in Neocomian and Upper Jurassic deposits, allowing them to be classified as a single Neocomian-Upper Jurassic lithologic-stratigraphic complex promising for hydrocarbon exploration.&nbsp;&nbsp;Source: «Nebit-gaz» newspaper

On August 7th, the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov, who is on working leave, took an early-morning bicycle ride along the shore of the Caspian.During the bicycle ride, the Arkadagly Hero Serdar admired the beauty of the National Tourist Zone «Awaza», whose appearance has changed beyond recognition in recent years. As a result of the consistent efforts of the National Leader of the Turkmen people Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov and the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov to implement a large-scale project for the creation and development of a world-class seaside resort, the National Tourist Zone «Awaza» has also become a center for holding international conferences, forums and other events, including sporting ones.The good tradition established by the Hero-Arkadag of regularly organizing mass bicycle races in Turkmenistan has received the universal support of compatriots, who take part with great enthusiasm in sports and environmental campaigns. This contributes to strengthening people's health and, at the same time, to instilling in young people a sense of careful attitude toward nature. An important aspect is also that mass physical culture and sporting events contribute to strengthening the health of the people.As is known, every year on June 3rd the international community widely celebrates World Bicycle Day, established at the initiative of Turkmenistan by the corresponding Resolution of the UN General Assembly. This clearly demonstrates the recognition on the world stage of the noble initiatives of the Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan. In Turkmenistan, priority importance is given to stimulating the physical culture, wellness and sports movement, and to ensuring ecological well-being as a key factor of sustainable development both at the national and global levels.A vivid confirmation of this is the comprehensive work being carried out in the National Tourist Zone «Awaza». In this regard, unwavering attention is paid to maintaining cleanliness and a favorable ecological situation throughout the entire territory of the National Tourist Zone «Awaza», which in turn strengthens its status as an international center of tourism and health resort recreation.During the bicycle ride, the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov admired the picturesque expanses of the Caspian. The light sea breeze, the seagulls soaring over the water, and the clean, healing air create a special atmosphere that has a beneficial effect on people.The man-made forest belts and parks formed on the territory of the National Tourist Zone «Awaza» form a unified harmony with the beautiful buildings that have become the main adornment of the Caspian coast. As a result of the annual mass planting of tree saplings, the areas of green plantations here are expanding. In the Year «Independent Neutral Turkmenistan – the Homeland of Purposeful Winged Horses» under the leadership of the Arkadagly Hero Serdar, targeted work continues in our country to ensure ecological well-being, implement the National Forest Program, protect nature, preserve its flora and fauna, and preserve marine biodiversity.It should be noted that every year the number of vacationers grows in the National Tourist Zone «Awaza», who are offered high-class services for strengthening health and useful leisure time. Optimal conditions for excellent recreation are provided here. This is also yet another confirmation of the social orientation of the state policy pursued by the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov, the goal of which is the prosperity of the beloved Motherland and ensuring a happy life for the people.In the modern era, here, as throughout Turkmenistan, great importance is attached to the development of the physical culture and wellness movement. As the doctor Arkadag emphasizes, movement, taking walks and active leisure in general are among the essential conditions for strengthening human health. A special role in this belongs to the most environmentally clean form of transport – the bicycle, which enjoys great popularity.Bicycle rides, being very beneficial for health, also make it possible to contemplate the beauty of the surrounding environment. Active outdoor recreation, especially in the morning hours, lifts the mood and adds strength. In this regard, it is notable that in recent years the number of cycling enthusiasts in Turkmenistan has been increasing. This is a visible result of the efforts undertaken at the state level to develop this sport.The comfortable tourist and resort zone created on the shore of the Caspian, whose infrastructure includes magnificent sanatoriums, hotels with medical and rehabilitation departments, children's health centers, and cottage complexes intended for family recreation, offers Turkmen citizens and guests of the country high-quality service year-round. Multipurpose sports complexes and grounds combine all the conditions for conducting training sessions and organizing international competitions, which also raises the status of the National Tourist Zone «Awaza» as an international sports center.This reflects the successful steps being taken under the leadership of the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov aimed at strengthening human health, increasing life expectancy, and enhancing people's activity levels.&nbsp;
