Uzbekneftegaz chief executive Bakhodirzhon Sidikov has reiterated that the Uzbek company aims to to boost its gas production by between 4 billion and 5 billion cubic metres in 2020 from this year's expected total of 42 Bcm.
The state-owned company is also looking to bring in partners on other acreage to help propel longer-term production.
Sidikov said such steep growth after years of stagnation should be generated from the company’s investment in workovers of existing and idle wells on its Uzbek acreage.
