The Capital Repair Department of the &laquo;Nebitgazd&uuml;&yacute;pliabatla&yacute;yş&raquo; Trust, part of the State Concern &ldquo;Turkmennebit,&rdquo; carries out efficient work to ensure the uninterrupted operation of oil wells at Turkmenistan&rsquo;s largest fields.

The department&rsquo;s repair teams perform underground and major repairs of wells at the Goturdepe, Barsagelmez, and Gamyşlyja fields, which supply the country&rsquo;s fuel and energy complex daily with hundreds of thousands of tons of oil and substantial volumes of gas.

During the repair operations, modern equipment is used, including the J-650 lifting unit with a lifting capacity of 80 to 120 tons. The use of flexible tubing and pumping-compressor pipes significantly reduces repair time and increases the throughput of wells. These units are also used to remove deposits and flush sand plugs in the wellbore zone.

A leading role in maintaining production is played by the workshop of the Capital Repair Department for flexible tubing of the &laquo;Nebitgazd&uuml;&yacute;pliabatla&yacute;yş&raquo; Trust. For his contribution to ensuring efficient hydrocarbon production, the head of this workshop, Abdulla Bayrammamedov, was awarded Turkmenistan&rsquo;s jubilee medal &ldquo;On the 30th Anniversary of Turkmenistan&rsquo;s Neutrality.&rdquo;

Issues of further development of Turkmenistan–EU partnership discussed in Ashgabat

In the strategy being implemented in Turkmenistan for innovative industrialization, digitalization of the national economy, addressing production sector tasks aimed at import substitution, and increasing the country&rsquo;s export potential, the fuel and energy complex (FEC) occupies a key place. The relevant events and outcomes of 2025 further confirmed this.

At the extended meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers held on July 11, 2025, the Head of State emphasized that the domestic FEC&mdash;one of the main segments of the national economy&mdash;faces key development tasks for this sector, including the diversification of natural gas exports to global markets.

President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, in order to increase the production capacities of the complex&rsquo;s enterprises, instructed the continued implementation of the latest scientific achievements and innovative technologies. Additionally, directives were issued to conduct geological exploration, continuously improve the work on the development of oil and gas fields and the discovery of new ones, undertake comprehensive measures aimed at marketing hydrocarbon resources and their processed products on global markets, and continue the production of competitive and environmentally friendly products by strengthening the material and technical base of the oil and gas sector.

As a major energy power and one of the world&rsquo;s leading countries in natural gas reserves, Turkmenistan seeks to establish business contacts with large oil and gas companies and reputable financial institutions, as well as to significantly expand the geography of direct energy dialogue. Special attention is given to the active introduction of the latest scientific and technical developments, innovative technologies, and digital systems into the domestic FEC, including the use of 3D and 4D modeling methods.

The gas sector, which accounts for more than half of the country&rsquo;s industrial production, forms the foundation of the FEC. Active work is underway to explore, evaluate, and industrially develop new fields using advanced technologies at all stages of the production process. The petrochemical sector is also actively developing, with systematic work to increase production volumes, expand the product range, and improve quality to meet global standards, serve the domestic market, and provide a raw material base for the FEC.

In recent years, Turkmenistan has carried out targeted international activities, establishing effective contacts with foreign companies and drawing global attention to energy security issues. Annual exhibitions, meetings, and conferences provide a productive platform for launching new projects and learning about global trends in the oil and gas sector. A prominent example is the International Offsite Forum on Attracting Foreign Investments into Turkmenistan&rsquo;s Economy, held on April 23&ndash;24 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Organized by the State concerns T&uuml;rkmengaz and T&uuml;rkmennebit, and the Turkmenistan Chamber of Commerce and Industry in partnership with the BE Turkmen Energy Forum, the event was conducted both in a traditional format and broadcast via Zoom to dozens of countries worldwide.

Today, by actively introducing innovative technologies and advanced global experience into the oil and gas sector, Turkmenistan places great importance on developing relations with large foreign companies and business structures based on trust, mutual respect, equality, and mutual benefit.

Evidence of this is the international meeting and bilateral negotiations held on May 14 in Ashgabat between the National Leader of the Turkmen people, Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov, and the head of Petronas, Tan Sri Tengku Muhammad Taufik; the Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology of the United Arab Emirates; the CEO of the National Oil Company of Abu Dhabi (ADNOC), Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber; the UAE Minister of Energy and Infrastructure, Suhail Al Mazrouei; and the UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Ahmed Al Saegh.

Following the meeting, agreements were signed between the State Concern T&uuml;rkmennebit, Petronas Carigali (Turkmenistan) Sdn Bhd (Malaysia), and ADNOC Turkmenistan RSC Limited (UAE), as well as between the State Concern T&uuml;rkmengaz, Petronas Carigali (Turkmenistan) Sdn Bhd (Malaysia), and ADNOC Turkmenistan RSC Limited (UAE).

The main goal of the International Scientific and Practical Conference &ldquo;Environmental Aspects of Implementing Innovative Technologies in Hydrocarbon Field Development&rdquo;, held in a hybrid format on June 5 at the Research Institute of Natural Gas of the State Concern T&uuml;rkmengaz, was to strengthen cooperation between Turkmen and major energy companies, reputable organizations, scientific communities, and financial institutions focused on digital technologies and human capital development.

Current directions of the energy strategy, aimed at innovative development and improvement of the FEC infrastructure, were considered at working meetings and Cabinet of Ministers sessions held in 2025. One of the key vectors of this strategy is the consistent strengthening of cooperation with regional countries based on mutual benefit and good-neighborly principles.

For example, on October 20, the National Leader of the Turkmen people, Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov, reviewed the construction progress of the Serhetabat&ndash;Herat section in Afghanistan, called &ldquo;Arkadagyň ak &yacute;oly&rdquo; , and blessed the implementation of the next stage of this key segment of the Turkmenistan&ndash;Afghanistan&ndash;Pakistan&ndash;India gas pipeline.

The important role of the Fuel and Energy Complex in the national economy

Major production facilities play a significant role in the development of Turkmenistan&rsquo;s fuel and energy complex. In particular, the Turkmenbashi Complex of Oil Refineries and the Seydi Oil Refinery play a crucial role in expanding the country&rsquo;s oil industry.

Operations at these production facilities are carried out at an intensive pace, and a wide range of products is currently being manufactured. As a result of targeted, program-based work conducted in line with modern requirements, production has been established for hydrogen fuel, biofuel, high-octane unleaded motor gasoline, aviation, lighting, and technical kerosene, liquefied gas, various types of diesel fuel, industrial lubricating oils and polypropylene, as well as calcined electrode coke, road and construction bitumen, and other products.

Oil is the most important foundation of the petrochemical industry. This valuable raw material is used in the production of fabrics, footwear, plastic products, paints and coatings, and electrodes for metallurgy. Turkmen polyethylene is in high demand and is used as a raw material for the manufacture of both technical and household items, including films, bags, utility pipes, and electrical cable insulation. Polyethylene is characterized by high hardness and strength, chemical resistance to acids, alkalis, fats, and oils, as well as excellent dielectric properties. Therefore, it is used to produce containers for household chemicals, canisters, barrels, toys, tableware, kitchen and bathroom utensils, sewing and furniture fittings, components for automotive and household appliances, and large-scale structures such as playgrounds, wells, overpasses, and more.

It is worth noting that maintaining oil and gas production levels through the use of new technologies and field development methods requires deeper and more comprehensive processing of natural gas. In this regard, global trends related to the Sustainable Development Goals come to the forefront, including the intensification of mutually beneficial cooperation, the exchange of advanced technologies within new environmental standards, the attraction of investors to supply cutting-edge specialized equipment to the country, and the introduction of environmentally safe production facilities.
