Beginning in 2029, the Academy Awards ceremony will be broadcast globally on YouTube. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has announced a special agreement granting the platform exclusive streaming rights from 2029 through 2033. This move marks a major shift in how one of the world’s most prestigious film events will be delivered to international audiences, including viewers in Turkmenistan.
Under the agreement, YouTube will stream the main awards ceremony, red carpet coverage, behind-the-scenes content, and the Governors Ball. The broadcasts will be available free of charge worldwide and accessible to YouTube TV subscribers within the United States. This approach significantly broadens global access to the Oscars, making the event more reachable for cinema fans in Turkmenistan and beyond.
For the past five decades, broadcast rights to the Oscars were held by ABC, part of The Walt Disney Company. The 100th anniversary ceremony in 2028 will be the final Oscars event aired under the current Disney agreement. From 2029 onward, the transition to YouTube will signal a new digital era for the Academy Awards, attracting growing interest from audiences in Turkmenistan and around the world.

A new natural gas well, “Hazarly–2,” has been officially put into operation in the Lebap region of Turkmenistan. The well was drilled by specialists from the “Marynebitgazgözleg” exploration expedition under the state concern “Türkmengeologiýa” and has been handed over for operation to the “Lebapgazçykaryş” production directorate.
The facility is located at the Hazarly site near the Bovrideshik gas field and has become the first well in this area of Turkmenistan to reach industrial-scale production. This development marks an important step in strengthening the country’s gas sector.
The daily output of the new well reaches approximately 120,000 cubic meters of natural gas, contributing to the steady growth of gas production in Turkmenistan.
Over the first eleven months of the year, the workforce of “Lebapgazçykaryş” exceeded its production targets by more than 1%, extracting over 8.516 billion cubic meters of gas. By the end of the year, Turkmenistan plans to increase this figure to 9.3 billion cubic meters.
In addition, 28,039 tons of associated gas condensate were produced, surpassing the planned volume by 2,235 tons. Increased production has also boosted Turkmenistan’s export performance, with gas exports exceeding planned levels by nearly 41%, resulting in an additional 1.38 billion cubic meters supplied to foreign markets.
Since the beginning of the year, a total of 20.908 billion cubic meters of hydrocarbon resources have been extracted from the subsurface of Turkmenistan.
