Thanks to the successful development recently carried out by gas workers of the Turkmengazburawlayysh management of the State Concern "Turkmengas", a new industrially significant flow was obtained at production well No. 236 of the country’s largest gas storehouse, Galkynysh. This was the result of effective drilling and perforation-blasting operations of layers at depths from 4509 to 4363 meters with a total length of 146 meters. According to experts, the production well's debit rate is 2 million 330 cubic meters of natural gas per day.

We are particularly proud of the fact that these works are carried out by domestic specialists - experienced drillers, including with the participation of young promising gas workers. In the successful conduct of drilling operations, timely completion of construction and commissioning of new wells, a particularly important role is given to advanced technology purchased by the state, powerful technological equipment, the presence of which determines the quality of the work performed and long-term operation of wells.

As a result of the regular support provided by the head of state during the drilling and construction of this gas well, saddle and tubing pipes, Christmas tree fittings, and column heads of the leading Japanese company Sumitomo were widely used, corresponding to the geological and technological characteristics of the Galkynysh gas field, the production indicators of which are attractive attention of leading international manufacturers. Likewise, Turkmen gas is of interest to both consumer countries and large foreign investors. Currently, the gas workers of the concern, in accordance with the plan, are successfully carrying out drilling operations at production wells No. 110, 253, 260, 265, 283 of the Galkynysh gas field.
