In the near and medium term, Turkmenistan plans to receive new ships built at the “Balkan” shipyard, located on the territory of the Turkmenbashy International Seaport. At the same time, the emphasis is on supply vessels, transport and tugboats, which are in demand at the time, serving the increasing areas of offshore oil and gas production. This was reported in the “Neutral Turkmenistan” newspaper.

Investment projects provide for an increase in the number of RO-PAX ferries in the maritime merchant fleet for the transport of rolling railway and road transport and, in connection with this, the opening of routes to the ports of Makhachkala, Kuryk, and Astrakhan.

In light of the opening of large industrial facilities for the production of petrochemical products, universal dry cargo ships, including container ships, are becoming centrally important in the fleet's fleet of vehicles.

The marine fleet of oil tankers, passenger and specialized vessels intended for deepening navigation channels, cleaning the port water area and other needs will also expand. The implementation of investment projects will serve to ensure a stable increase in income. Suffice it to say that the monthly profit from operating only a vessel for collecting garbage and oil products from the water surface will be approximately 120 thousand USD, the source notes.
