Turkmenistan and Iran border on the Caspian Sea and have a long land border. Over the years of long-term cooperation, they have implemented a number of large-scale joint projects.
The Tejen-Sarakhs-Mashhad railway line, which became an important transit corridor connecting the Central Asian states with Europe, Balkanabat-Aliabad power transmission line, the Dostluk reservoir are among such projects.
Significant projects have been implemented in the field of energy: gas pipelines have been built along the Korpeje-Kurt-Kui and Dovletabat-Sarakhs-Khangeran routes.
It was reported in October 2017 that the preparation for the construction of an air power transmission line (PTL) with a voltage of 500-400 kV along Mary-Sarakhs-Mashhad (Iran) route and a power line in the direction of Balkanabat-Gonbad (Iran) is being carried out in order to increase the export of Turkmen electricity to Iran.
