Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- The Russian company LUKOIL opened two new multifunctional gas filling complexes on the most important section of the M39 highway connecting Tashkent and Samarkand, at a distance of 12 km from the capital of Uzbekistan.

The Minister of Energy of Uzbekistan Jurabek Mirzamakhmudov took part in the opening ceremony of the filling complexes.

The land plots for the construction of each gas station occupy approximately two hectares. On their territory there are cafes, shops, play areas for children and sports grounds.

Built according to international standards, LUKOIL gas stations take into account the climatic conditions and cultural traditions of the region.

Prayer rooms and terraces for relaxation with the possibility of using sliding glazing, as well as a tandoor for preparing national Uzbek dishes are available to visitors.

The development of the complexes took into account the traffic intensity on this section of the highway, through which more than 40 thousand cars pass per day. Now, on the way between the largest cities of the country - Tashkent and Samarkand - drivers can relax in comfort and refuel with fuel from LUKOIL, including EKTO-100.
