Methane (CH4) emissions in Turkmenistan reached 50.46 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MtCO2e) in 2022. Methane emissions in the Asian country have been on a mostly upward trend since the turn of the century, despite registering a noticeable decline in 2009. In 2022, Turkmenistan was responsible for 184 human-caused methane super-emitter events – mainly from oil and gas field leaks. This was more than any other country globally that year.
