Like all other higher and secondary vocational educational institutions in our country, the Mary Oil and Gas Secondary Vocational School of the Türkmengaz State Concern, thanks to the far-sighted policy of the esteemed President, has created all the conditions for young people to master their chosen professions. Every year, a large group of graduates from this school is sent to work at enterprises of the oil and gas industry, which is the basic industry of our country’s national economy.

It is difficult to imagine the exploration and discovery of hydrocarbons in the rich deposits of our country’s western region without the tireless and effective work of specialists from the Türkmennebitgeofizika Directorate of the Türkmennebit State Concern. This enterprise carries out such important tasks as the accurate study of geophysical strata in drilled and ongoing wells at mineral deposits, as well as, if necessary, blasting operations at confirmed productive depths.

The oil refining industry plays a major role in implementing large-scale reforms in our independent and permanently neutral Motherland and gaining high levels of national economic achievements. The Turkmenbashi complex of oil refineries (TCOR) of the Türkmennebit State Concern is gaining increasing popularity thanks to its products. The high-quality petroleum products and petrochemicals, manufactured there, are in great demand in the global market.

In preparation for the first Central Asia–Republic of Korea summit, scheduled for September 16-17, 2026, in Seoul, a correspondent for Korea’s leading news agency, Yonhap, Song Do-hyun arrived in Turkmenistan. During his visit, the foreign guest visited our editorial office, where he shared his expectations for the forthcoming meeting of leaders, assessed our country’s industrial potential and shared his impressions of Ashgabat, Mary and Turkmenbashi.

In the first six months of this year, 12,700 tons of petroleum road bitumen were produced in the eastern region of our independent Motherland. Compared to the same period last year, when this figure was 12,400 tons, industrial growth in this sector amounted to 2.4 per cent. Thus, during the reporting period, total bitumen production increased by exactly 300 tons. This positive trend vividly demonstrates that production processes at the Seydi oil refinery of the Türkmennebit State Concern are stable and long-term.

These days, preparations for the approaching 35th anniversary of the country’s independence have become the main motivation for workers and specialists at the local branches of the Daşoguzgazüpjünçilik Directorate.

At the extended sitting of the Cabinet of Ministers held on July 10 of the year being held under the motto “Independent Neutral Turkmenistan – the Homeland of Purposeful Winged Horses” and devoted to the results of the past six months of this year, the esteemed President emphasized the importance of continuing the modernization of oil and gas enterprises.

Providing the population with uninterrupted natural gas throughout the year is one of the main benefits the state provides to our people. This task is the primary concern of gas utility workers. Therefore, in addition to ensuring consumers receive sufficient amounts of “blue fuel” daily, they always focus on ensuring gas equipment is perfectly prepared for the winter season – the period of peak natural gas consumption.

The work to ensure the proper supply of natural gas to residents, institutions and businesses in the city of Dashoguz, located on the picturesque banks of the Shabat River, is a source of particular pride. This work is carried out by the team of the Daşoguzgazüpjünçilik Directorate, one of the oldest and most experienced divisions of the Türkmengaz State Concern.

Drillers from the Nebitgazburawlaýyş Trust, a subsidiary of the Türkmennebit State Concern, are achieving outstanding labor success. They dedicate their victories to this landmark year, which is being held under the motto “Independent Neutral Turkmenistan – the Homeland of Purposeful Winged Horses”, and is marking the glorious 35th anniversary of the country’s sacred Independence.

Oil and gas occupy a special place among Turkmenistan’s natural resources, rightfully considered a true treasure trove of resources. The development of the oil and gas industry is the foundation of our national economy, and the country is consistently implementing large-scale industry programs. As in other sectors of the national economy, specialists in this field work hard, successfully fulfilling all state-mandated objectives.

In recent years, the Körpeje Gas Production Directorate of the Türkmennebit State Concern has undergone extensive technical modernization. The enterprise consistently maintains its leading position among the Concern’s divisions, performing a full range of operations – from exploratory well drilling and hydrocarbon production to the construction of gas compressor stations and major infrastructure repairs.

The soul of national culture: how a famous group preserves ancient traditions.

The Balkanabat Water Supply Directorate of the Nebitgazburawlaýyş Trust is responsible for providing the necessary volume of industrial and drinking water to enterprises of the Türkmennebit State Concern engaged in hydrocarbon extraction, drilling, well overhaul and reservoir pressure maintenance.

Recently, a facility for separating and pumping oil condensate mixture from gas was built and commissioned at the rich Uzynada field in the Balkan velayat. This new facility, adding to the series of joyful events this year, being held under the motto “Independent Neutral Turkmenistan – the Homeland of Purposeful Winged Horses”
