The strategic goal of the state policy in the field of environment protection is to ensure environmentally safe living conditions and activity of society and citizens, based on the widespread implementation of the principles of the green economy and the maximal preservation of natural systems. The most important tasks for achieving this goal are to ensure a sustainable reduction in the harmful impact on the environment and to increase the efficiency of using the natural resource potential to meet the current and future needs of society.
Priority areas are the implementation of the smart city conception, the development of a waste-free economy, based on a radical reform of the waste management system, and measures to expand the use of renewable energy sources and to reduce the economy’s needs for natural resources.
The strategic goals in the field of ensuring an environmentally safe living environment are the preservation of local and regional ecosystems for current and future generations and the protection of the population from the negative impact of natural and manmade emergencies.
The mitigation of the effects of climate change and adaptation to it, the reduction of the negative socioeconomic consequences of natural disasters and hazardous weather events, the restoration of ecologically unstable ecosystems to their previous state and the restoration of their natural quality are among priority tasks. For efficient use of land resources, it is necessary to implement measures aimed at greening land use and adapting it to climate change and improving the territorial organization of cultivated lands, administrative boundaries and territorial units, the land assessment and the taxation system. The strategic goal of protecting the country’s water resources is to increase the efficiency of the use and protection of water resources and to improve their quality in accordance with the needs of society and climate change. The main focus in water resources management will be on achieving long-term water security, which involves taking measures to reliably provide the population with drinking water of normal quality and to ensure the safe discharge of wastewater into the environment.
For the purpose of sustainable development of the mineral resource base, the re-equipment and digitalization of geological exploration, the introduction of environmentally friendly innovative technologies for the extraction, processing and maximally efficient use of minerals and the minimization of the negative impact of mineral extraction will strengthen the national system of the green economy.
The strategic goal of the state policy in the field of waste management is to involve waste in economic circulation as secondary raw materials and to prevent their negative impact on the environment and public health. To achieve these goals, it is necessary to prevent their formation, based on the provisions of the Zero Waste conception, which provides for the processing of everything obtained from nature, turning it into useful products and returning it to production.
It is important to reduce the accumulation of large volumes of production waste and the formation of hazardous production waste, to increase the level of their utilization and to ensure their environmentally safe disposal, and in this direction, through the efforts of the Esteemed President, programmatic work is being carried out.
When building a national green economy, a long-term strategy for the transition to a fundamentally new model of resource efficiency, a zero-waste economy, is being implemented. This model is aimed at saving and reducing the consumption of all types of raw materials and fuel and energy resources, based on the harmless circulation of material resources, the optimization of production processes and the introduction of technological and social innovations into production.

Maxim Bortnikov – Managing Director at the Center for the Implementation of the Principles of Sustainable Development of Gazprombank:
“The theme of the International Conference held in Ashgabat is rather topical, as evidenced by the composition of its participants, including representatives of government agencies, large international organizations, banks, big gas companies, scientists, leading specialists and experts in the oil and gas sphere.
«Dashoguzgazupjunchilik» ensures the efficient use of «blue fuel»
The gas workers of the «Dashoguzgazupjunchilik» department continue to provide reliable and uninterrupted gas supply to consumers in the northern region of our country. Despite the period of maximum loads, qualified specialists ensure the stable functioning of the gas distribution system of the velayat in the heating season.
Another well has been put into operation
An industrial flow of natural gas was obtained from a well drilled by the team of the Lebapnebitgazgözleg Expedition of the Türkmengeologiýa State Corporation at Tachmuradov site. This will be a worthy gift from the united team of the Expedition for the forthcoming large-scale holiday – the 33rd anniversary of Turkmenistan’s independence.
The new hydraulic device is distinguished by its efficiency
The Department of Geology and Geochemistry of Yagshigeldi Kakayev International University of Oil and Gas has developed an “Innovative hydraulic device for displacing air from the cavities of drill pipes”.
Since the beginning of 2025, the “Nebitgazchykarysh” Trust of the State Concern “Turkmennebit” has produced over 1.2 million tons of oil
Since the beginning of 2025, the “Nebitgazchykarysh” Trust of the State Concern “Turkmennebit” has produced 1 million 278 thousand 817 tons of "black gold". Much of the credit for this goes to the drillers of the “Nebitgazburawlayysh” Trust, who have drilled 57 thousand 246 meters of production wells and 16 thousand 51 meters of exploratory wells since the beginning of the year.
