Tajik officials held talks in mid-2000 with Iranian officials about possible Iranian assistance for Tajikistan's oil sector.
The former Soviet republic imported almost all of the 29,000 b/d of petroleum products and 40 bcfd of gas that it consumed, mostly from Uzbekistan.
Tajikistan conducted successful drilling for natural gas in 2000 in the southern Khatlon region, but no details were available, the US Energy Information Administration disclosed. This followed the drilling of two wildcats in 1999.
As of the late 1980s Tajikistan had nine oil, oil and gas, and gas and condensate fields in the Fergana basin bordering Uzbekistan and several identified fields in the Afghan-Tadzhik sub-basin north of Afghanistan.
