BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 19. The Water Supply
Department of the "Nebitgazburavlayys" Trust under Turkmenistan’s
state concern Turkmennebit increased water production by 2% in
2025.


This was announced in a report published by the press service of
the Government of Turkmenistan.


"During the past year, more than 1 million 292 thousand cubic
meters of drinking and industrial water were extracted by the
department, while the production growth rate reached 102 percent,"
the report says.


According to the report, the department is responsible for
supplying production and drinking water to hydrocarbon producers,
drilling enterprises, well maintenance units and reservoir pressure
management facilities operating within the Turkmennebit system.


The report states that water is supplied from 49 underground
wells located near Yasga Lake, as well as from the Caspian Sea
through the use of high-capacity pumping equipment.


According to the information, the volume delivered to consumers
increased by approximately 16,350 cubic meters compared to the
previous year.







The government press service noted that the modernization and
repair of water pipelines managed by the department have
contributed to improved operational performance and higher
production results.


"In order to further improve water supply, repair and
replacement works on water pipelines under the department are
currently being carried out in an organized manner," the report
says.


The reported increase in water production and ongoing pipeline
modernization indicate efforts by Turkmennebit to strengthen
supporting infrastructure for oilfield operations in western
Turkmenistan. Given the importance of water for drilling, well
servicing and reservoir pressure maintenance, improvements in water
supply capacity may help sustain production levels and support
further development of the country's mature onshore oil fields.


Meanwhile, water is a critical component of oil production in
western Turkmenistan, where most of the country's oil fields are
located. In addition to supplying drinking water to workers and
nearby settlements, water is used in drilling operations, well
maintenance and reservoir pressure management, which helps sustain
production at mature fields.


Turkmennebit operates its main oil assets in the Balkan region
near the Caspian Sea, including the Goturdepe, Nebitdag and
Cheleken fields. To support these operations, the company relies on
water supplied from underground sources around Yasga Lake and from
the Caspian Sea through a network of pumping stations, reservoirs
and pipelines. The Yasga water system is one of the key sources of
industrial and drinking water for western Turkmenistan.
