This technology, developed by the U.S. Westport Trading Europe Limited, makes it possible to produce road bitumen from oil according to the highest standards, which opens up new horizons for the development of the Turkmen oil & gas market.
The solution includes the processing of heavy oil residues, in fact, waste remaining after refining and obtaining components for the manufacture of basic petroleum products.
This technology makes it possible to obtain high-quality road bitumen that meets modern standards from oil with a high content of paraffins.
Ultimately, this makes it possible to carry out deep oil refining and increase the efficiency of using Turkmenistan's hydrocarbons.
Currently, Turkmenistan is rapidly building asphalt-concrete roads in the areas of oil & gas production.
The durability, strength and hydraulic stability of roads largely depend on the quality of the bitumen used.
Accordingly, the export of high-quality bitumen from Turkmenistan will also contribute to the national budget.
