A conference on the topic “The role of Turkmen science in the international oil and gas
industry” was held at the International University of Oil and Gas named after Yagshigeldy
Kakaev on the eve of the Day of Science, which will be celebrated in our country on June 12.
The event was attended by representatives of the student and teaching staff of higher educational
institutions of our country. Lecturers and students of the branch of the university located in the
Balkan region joined the conference via video link.
During the conference, teachers and students spoke about the results of their research work, as
well as about the prospects for cooperation with foreign partners in various fields of science.
As the speakers noted, comprehensive work is being carried out in Turkmenistan to strengthen
the scientific research base and create a digital economy based on advanced technologies and
fundamental theoretical sciences. In addition, large-scale work is aimed at training qualified
specialists who are distinguished by ingenuity and increasing the enthusiasm of talented youth
for science.
A striking example of successful scientific activity is the International University of Oil and Gas
named after Yagshigeldy Kakaev. Here, in February 2023, the first international conference
”Scientific and technical possibilities for obtaining hydrogen energy from natural gas” was held
for the first time.
Teachers and students of the university regularly publish scientific articles about their research
and project work. For five months since the beginning of this year, more than 240 materials
have been published in foreign and domestic journals, the authors of which are teachers and
students of the International University of Oil and Gas named after Yagshigeldy Kakaev.
