TASHKENT, Uzbekistan, May 15. Uzbekneftegaz and
Canada-based Condor Energies Inc. held discussions during OGU 2026
on the next phase of a joint project aimed at enhancing natural gas
production at the Gazli field, Trend reports via Uzbekneftegaz.
The talks addressed ongoing operations and plans for the Kumli
group of fields within the Gazli region, with particular emphasis
on increasing production through the adoption of advanced
technologies, modernization of infrastructure, and optimized
utilization of newly drilled wells.
The project, executed through the foreign enterprise Condor
Energy Development, was characterized by both parties as a
significant step toward broader integration of technological
solutions within Uzbekistan’s energy sector and more efficient
exploitation of existing gas resources.
Located in Uzbekistan’s Bukhara region, the Gazli gas field is
among the country’s largest and most mature gas-producing areas.
Discovered in the late 1950s and developed extensively during the
1960s under the Soviet Union, it historically played a pivotal role
in supplying natural gas throughout Central Asia and to other
Soviet republics via major pipeline networks.
The broader Gazli production zone encompasses multiple mature
deposits, with cumulative historical production measured in
hundreds of billions of cubic meters of gas. The area also includes
the Gazli underground gas storage facility, with an estimated
working capacity of approximately 3 billion cubic meters, which
remains strategically significant for balancing seasonal gas demand
in Uzbekistan.
