Uzbekneftegaz JSC is building a hydrogen filling station at Ustyurt Gas Chemical Complex based on the resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan on the Program for the localization of manufacturing products in demand in domestic and foreign markets, of March 10, 2020.

The implementation of the project will provide for the import substitution of high-purity hydrogen (99.999 percent) used for analyzers in the management department and the central plant laboratory.

It should be noted that Ustyurt Gas Chemical Complex needs 950 hydrogen cylinders per year, which is an average of $209 per cylinder. Hydrogen is imported from Russia, South Korea, China and other countries.

The cost of the project is $150 thousand. It is financed from the company’s own funds.

The construction of a hydrogen filling station has been fully completed and manufacturing products have begun under the design documentation.
