• Increasing investments into the Turkmenistan oil and gas sector and increase in production of natural gas are expected to contribute in the increase of growth of the industry.

Turkmenistan Oil & Gas Market TrendsMidstream Sector to Witness Significant Growth

• In 2018, Trans-Caspian Gas Pipeline (TCP) was a proposed pipeline that would transport gas from Turkmenistan to Azerbaijan across the Caspian Sea via an undersea pipeline. The expected capacity of the pipeline is estimated at around 16 billion cubic meters per year. It is expected to be operational by 2024.
• In 2018, Central Asia–Center Gas Pipeline was an operating natural gas pipeline. The pipeline runs from the Dauletabad gas field, Turkmenistan to Russia. The pipeline has a length of approximately 4,405 kilometers and a capacity of 90 billion cubic meters per year.
• Production of natural gas increased in the country, by 4.8% from 50.5 Million tonnes oil equivalent, in 2017 to 52.9 Million tonnes oil equivalent, in 2018. Consumption of gas in Turkmenistan increased by 12%, from 21.8 Million tonnes oil equivalent (mtoe), in 2017 to 24.4 mtoe, in 2018. The increase in production is expected to boost the growth in the pipeline infrastructure.
• Hence, the Midstream sector is expected to grow in the forecast period due to the increase in exports of natural gas significantly.

Increasing Investment to Drive the Market

• There has been a decrease in oil production by 5.3%, in 2018. Rising from 11.2 million tons of oil equivalent (Mtoe) in 2017 to 10.6 Mtoe in 2018. The consumption of oil has risen by 2.8%, from 6.9 mtoe, in 2017 to 7.1 mtoe, in 2018.
• In 2019, Turkmenistan–Afghanistan–Pakistan–India Pipeline (TAPI) is a proposed pipeline delivering gas from Turkmenistan to India via Afghanistan and Pakistan. The length of the pipeline is around 1,814 km (1,127 miles) and has a proposed capacity of 33 billion cubic meters per year.
• In 2018, the proved oil reserves in the country were around 0.6 thousand million barrels, and natural gas reserves are around 688.1 trillion cubic feet. Natural gas account for 9.9% of the total proved reserves of natural gas in the world.
• The Turkmenistan oil and gas industry is expected to grow slightly in the forecast period due to an increase in oil and gas production in the region and increasing investment in the oil and gas sector.
