Abstract
In the recent two decades, the energy policy of Turkmenistan has changed a lot. Possessing enormous natural gas and oil deposits which development started in the Soviet times, Turkmenistan had no access to the world markets. The consistent efforts of Turkmenistan brought positive results – this country became one of the key suppliers of natural gas from the Caspian region. But, at the same time, the oil deposits in Turkmenistan are developed poorly.
