Dragon Oil will completely switch to zero gas flaring in Turkmenistan by 2027

The Dragon Oil company intends to completely stop burning gas when operating in Turkmenistan by 2027. This was stated by the company’s CEO Ali Rashid Al-Jarwan, reports the Nebit-Gaz website.


“At present time, we use 70% of the gas we produce, but in 3 years we hope to reach 100%, which will make our hydrocarbon production environmentally friendly for Turkmenistan”, said Al-Jarwan, speaking at the International Conference “Oil and Gas of Turkmenistan - 2023”.


The Emirati company also recently completed a 3D scan of the field in collaboration with the Turkmen State Concern “Turkmenneft”. This process permits you to more accurately determine the contours of deposits and increase drilling efficiency.
