The goal of the forum, which started in Paris, is to expand opportunities for attracting foreign direct investment in all segments of the energy industry of Turkmenistan, said the Advisor to the President of Turkmenistan on oil and gas issues Ashyrguly Begliev, speaking on April 24 at the opening of the event.
These segments are related to the production, transportation and refining of oil and gas, the generation of renewable energy sources, transportation, construction, and the environmental aspects of hydrocarbon field development.
As Begliev emphasized, Turkmenistan can offer international investors projects to develop the world's largest onshore gas field - Galkynysh, promising blocks on the Turkmen shelf of the Caspian Sea and the effective development of solar and wind energy and to supply reliable, sustainable, environmentally friendly energy to global markets energy.
In accordance with the National Development Program of Turkmenistan, several large projects with the attraction of foreign investment are planned to be implemented in the country’s oil and gas complex in the near future, noted the Advisor to the President of Turkmenistan.
