The gas industry in Turkmenistan's eastern region continues to develop confidently, strengthening the national economy. One practical step in this direction was the renovation of the Lebapgazchygarysh Administration's transport infrastructure, aimed at improving the convenience and safety of industry specialists.
The transport company received 11 modern Dong Feng EQ 6820 ZT passenger buses. The new equipment significantly expanded the fleet's capabilities, which now number 27 passenger buses. This has enabled the stable and organized transportation of workers to production and construction sites.
The Chinese-made buses are designed to carry 22 people each and are adapted for operation in the challenging climatic and road conditions of desert terrain. This has made transporting specialists to gas fields located in remote areas of the Karakum Desert faster and more reliable.
With the introduction of the new vehicles, the route system was also revised. Currently, the buses operate on five routes, providing regular service to key production sites. Some buses serve the Kerpichli and Kukurtli fields, while others are assigned to the Bagazh and Malay sites. The remaining buses are used to transport workers in production centers such as Naip, Gazlydepe, Bovrideshik, and Balguy.
The fleet upgrade has had a positive impact not only on the organization of the production process but also on the social well-being of workers. Travel times have been reduced, and comfort and safety have increased, which in turn contributes to improved work discipline and efficiency.
Consistent efforts to create decent conditions for production specialists remain a priority of state policy. The new buses are a clear example of the attention paid to the people whose daily work ensures the production of natural gas and makes a significant contribution to strengthening the country's economic potential.
