In recent years, the energy sector has undergone significant global transformations, with a growing number of countries embracing green energy as a response to climate change. The transition to renewable energy sources has become a pivotal step toward sustainable development. Recent international energy conferences in Turkmenistan have focused on climate change and reducing methane emissions.
From October 23 to 25, the XXIX International Oil and Gas Conference and Exhibition of Turkmenistan – OGT 2024 – will serve as a platform for knowledge sharing, strengthening partnerships, and developing strategies within the oil and gas industry. This premier regional and international event will gather top-level executives to discuss critical issues related to the execution of oil and gas projects and foster enhanced international collaboration. Conference participants will have access to up-to-date information on priority projects and investment opportunities in Turkmenistan's oil and gas sector.
SLB (formerly Schlumberger) is a global leader in providing technology and services to the energy industry. Built on a foundation of scientific research, SLB has remained committed to technological advancement. The company offers a comprehensive range of products and services, from geological exploration and production management to integrated solutions covering the entire production lifecycle—from reservoir to pipeline—aimed at optimizing hydrocarbon recovery and field management.
Responding to global energy demands and the transition to new energy sources, SLB rebranded on October 24, 2022, emphasizing its dedication to energy innovation and decarbonization. This transformation marks SLB's shift from being a leading oilfield services company to a global technology company focused on promoting energy innovation for global sustainability. With an unmatched legacy in technology and performance, SLB is well-positioned to lead in this transition.
Over the past 30 years, SLB has established itself as a major independent player in Central Asia, providing high-quality services in geological exploration, drilling, and production monitoring of hydrocarbons. SLB has been successfully operating in Turkmenistan since 1993, providing services at key fields, including Galkynysh, Uzynada, Cheleken, and Burun.
In the Caspian region, SLB has implemented several technologies, including:
• SandView – a technology for detecting sand influx into the well and determining its rate, allowing for the detection of up to 1,500 sand particle impacts per second and determining particle size through real-time intelligent analysis.
• Gravity packing – a technology to prevent sand production throughout the entire well lifecycle, enhancing productivity. This technology prevents sand plugging of perforations, erosion, and damage to downhole equipment.
• Premium Port – a technology for managing flow from different parts of the reservoir.
• Catenary Coiled Tubing Intervention – a technology that allows for downhole work without the need for a drilling rig pad on the platform. • Hydraulic Fracturing – a potential breakthrough technology for increasing the oil recovery factor from reservoirs. • Real-time Spectral Noise Logging Tool (HFND) – part of the Production Logging platform for leak detection and enhancing production logging results.
• Epilogue – a unique solution for dual-barrier cement evaluation.
• Neuro Autonomous Solutions – combining SLB’s expertise with connected intelligent systems, creating a continuous feedback loop between surface and downhole operations, which increases the efficiency, consistency, and reliability of exploration and production while reducing human intervention and carbon emissions.
• TruLink Definitive Dynamic Survey-While-Drilling Service – an innovation that eliminates survey-related rig time, enabling continuous definitive surveys, which help reduce rig time and associated CO2 emissions.
• Electric Submersible Pumps (ESP) – highly efficient and reliable equipment that enhances oil recovery from reservoirs with low pressure. Additionally, SLB has introduced advanced technologies such as CemFIT Heal to ensure quality zonal isolation during cementing. CemFIT Heal is a flexible, self-healing cement system that helps maintain well integrity from drilling to abandonment, providing an annular pressure seal and protecting against hydrocarbon leaks and sustained casing pressure at the wellhead. This system also lowers the CO2 footprint during well construction due to significantly reduced use of Portland cement.
With a global presence in over 120 countries, SLB understands that environmental stewardship is critical to business success. Environmental responsibility and social involvement are integral parts of the company's strategy.
SLB is actively pursuing initiatives to enhance environmental sustainability. This includes programs to reduce energy consumption, conserve water, and minimize greenhouse gas emissions. These measures contribute to long-term sustainability by conserving natural resources and reducing costs.
SLB utilizes energy-saving technologies at its facilities worldwide, including in Turkmenistan. For example, in late 2021, a unique energy-saving program was implemented at one of the company's local facilities, involving the use of solar panels.
SLB is committed to fostering a culture of environmental responsibility among its employees and engaging with the younger generation to ensure a sustainable future. These efforts contribute to a safer and more attractive business environment.
SLB's participation in the OGT 2024 event will be the next step in strengthening mutually beneficial cooperation with local and international energy companies. To date, over 200 delegates from 33 countries have registered to participate in the forum.
