The government said that energy-rich Turkmenistan''s leader has ordered the start of construction on a pipeline carrying gas from the former Soviet state to India, Pakistan and Afghanistan.
President Gurbanguly Berdymukhamedov ordered state companies Turkmengaz and Turkmengazneftstroi to begin building the isolated republic''s section of the pipeline.
Overall, the pipeline will stretch 1,800 kilometres and is likely to cost more than USD 10 billion.
The Turkmenistan official newspaper also said the government expects the gas link, with an annual capacity of 33 billion cubic metres, to be fully operational by the end of 2018.
The Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India (TAPI) project could help ease growing energy deficits in India and Pakistan.
For Turkmenistan, which has been hit by low energy prices and is dependent on China for the vast majority of its gas sales, TAPI is a key opportunity to diversify its exports.
