QazaqGaz plans to participate in the development of gas fields in Turkmenistan, including the Galkynysh supergiant gas and oil field.
ADNOC, being one of the leading oil and gas producers in the world, is also interested in developing cooperation with Turkmenistan. In January 2024, the State Concern Turkmengaz and ADNOC signed a Memorandum of Understanding. This memorandum is aimed at attracting strategic partners for the development of the third stage of the Galkynysh field and for their possible participation in the implementation of energy projects related to the construction of gas pipeline infrastructure.///nCa, 15 January 2025
