Natural Gas Delivered to Border Village in Panfilov District on Eve of Republic Day in Zhetysu Region

In the Zhetysu region, on the eve of Republic Day, natural gas was delivered to a border village in Panfilov District. The region is implementing large-scale gasification initiatives that are opening new opportunities for rural residents.

According to the press service of the Akim of Zhetysu Region, the gas was officially commissioned, providing about 500 local residents with clean and economical fuel, significantly improving their living conditions. Residents have been relieved from the inconveniences of traditional heating methods, and the environmental impact has lessened.

According to the regional department of energy and housing and communal services, gas has been delivered to the homes of 6,900 residents in the rural communities of Avat, Yntymak, Suptay, Nadek, Akkent, Kerimghash, Kyzylzhide, Sarpildak, Akaral, and Zhideli, with a total pipeline length of 108.6 km. Construction and installation works are currently underway in an additional 12 villages in the district, which are expected to be completed by the end of the year. In the future, gas will be delivered to 60,700 residents, with the total network length reaching 682 km.

Additionally, project and cost documentation has been prepared for six villages at the request of residents. Positive conclusions from the state examination have been received for projects in the villages of Turpan, Sadyr, and Dikhanqairat. The project for the villages of Sarybel, Baskynshy, and Koktal-Arasan is pending state examination, with construction in these areas planned by 2027.

As part of the extensive work, the village of Altyui has been gasified, where specialists laid improved pipelines and internal village networks ranging from 9.9 to 32 km in length, and installed seven modern cabinet gas regulating stations.

Gulnar Imanbekova, a local resident, shared her thoughts:

"The arrival of natural gas is a real celebration and a new level of life for us. Winter used to mean endless chores: buying coal and wood, constantly cleaning the stove and ash. Now, ahead of the holidays, our home is warm, clean, and cozy. It's not only a saving of time and budget but a big step towards comfort for our families. On behalf of all the villagers, I sincerely thank you for this swift and essential project."

It is worth noting that ensuring quality and affordable fuel for the border district remains one of the local government's priorities and is under continuous oversight of the regional administration.

Currently, the gasification level in the Zhetysu region stands at 67.4 percent. The municipal infrastructure covers 115 localities and provides natural gas to 468,500 people. Additionally, construction continues in another 11 villages.
