River Termen-Yelga

Termen-Yelga (Russian: Термень-Елга Termenʼ-Elga, also Терменьелга and Терменъелга; Bashkir: Тирмәнйылға, Tirmänyılğa, lit. "mill river") is river in Bashkortostan, Russia. It is a tributary of the Belaya that flows through the town of Ishimbay.

The Termen-Yelginskoye oil field [ru] was developed in the middle of the 20th century. Later, dams creating small reservoir ponds were built to supply industry in the city of Ishimbay. One pond for Ishimbayneft [ru] has a volume 520 m3 and a surface area of 0.17 km2.[1] A second pond, Tyurinsk Pond [ru; ba], was built for the Chaika (Чайка) sanatorium.
