Background

Gazli-Nukus pipeline is part of the Central Asia-Center and Bukhara-Ural gas pipelines networks. The order for the construction of the pipeline was issued by the Government of Uzbekistan in August 1993.

In 2016, a 75-kilometer pipeline was built on the territories of the Xorazm Region and the Republic of Karakalpakstan crossing the Amu Darya river to connect the Gazli-Nukus Gas Pipeline with the Bukhara-Ural Gas Pipeline.
