In 2023, the Turkestan region continued to work on providing natural gas to the population, making significant steps towards this strategically important goal.
According to the results of the past year, more than half of the settlements in the region – 515 out of 833 (which is 62%) – received access to natural gas. This has provided convenience and comfort to more than 1,653,000 residents, accounting for 80% of the total population.
In total, 69 facilities were gasified in the Turkestan region in 2023. In addition to the above-mentioned 57 settlements, 12 microdistricts in cities are connected to gas, as well as 3 automated gas distribution stations (AGRS), three gas supply pipelines. This, in turn, provided access to natural gas for the new 115,845 residents, raising the level of comfort and quality of life in the region.
These achievements were the result of the efforts of the Turkestan production branch of KazTransGas Aimak JSC, the Akimat of the Turkestan region and all interested parties.
