  Sakarya Phase One kick-starts Turkey’s upstream sector transformation, making nation less reliant on gas imports

  • 20 abril 2023

  Addressing Turkish Petroleum Corporation’s (TPAO) launch of Sakarya Phase One, Ashley Sherman, Research Director, Caspian & Europe Upstream Oil and Gas for Wood Mackenzie said “Sakarya Phase One redefines the scale of Turkey’s upstream sector, bringing its first deepwater output and a fundamental shift in domestic energy security. To date, Turkey has relied almost entirely on gas imports to meet its demand. Sakarya Phase One will put a sizeable dent into the country’s energy import bill, which reached an eye-watering US$97 billion in 2022. But Phase Two would be the real gamechanger, enabling Sakarya to cover almost 30% of Turkey’s gas consumption by 2030.”

  Tapping working gas volume could cushion blow of Europe’s energy crunch

  • 04 noviembre 2021

  European gas storage has been struggling to fill this summer. Storage at the beginning of November will be about 75% full, at 83 billion cubic metres (bcm), 14 bcm below the five-year average, rattling the market. A cold European winter could result in storage levels falling to zero by the end of March 2022, unless more Russian gas supply is available versus current export levels. But there could be an alternative available to the market should this come to pass – tapping the substantial amount of cushion gas available in Europe’s storage facilities. Global natural resources consultancy Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq: VRSK), said using cushion gas could allow an extra 15 bcm enter the market, easing the supply crunch.
