Report summary
A rapidly increasing energy imports bill has been a growing concern for Turkey’s government, with gas imports – accounting for almost all the country’s gas consumption – making up the largest portion. The ultra-deepwater gas field – the second largest discovery worldwide in 2020 – is the biggest-ever hydrocarbon find in the Black Sea and the largest in Turkey’s history. As a result, the share of gas imports in the gas supply mix will fall markedly following first gas from the field – but imports will still be required to meet most of Turkey’s demand. However, with nearly 35 bcm of gas import contracts expiring by 2027, the dawn of major Turkish domestic gas production will play a lead role in future contract negotiations. Furthermore, growing spot LNG purchases has been a feature in recent years. And with major new pipelines also coming onstream and 2020, a marked step-up in Turkey’s significance as a transit country, the supply battle to meet Turkey’s growing gas demand is hotting-up
