'Movement of Turkey which will allow you to pass what to whom?

Turkey is the largest natural gas supplier in close cooperation with Russia in the energy field for many years actually. So what does that mean in terms of the two countries exceed current Turkish project to life? We asked the experts do. Experts who wish to bypass Ukraine to Russia said that Turkish Movement of great importance, Turkey to emphasize the effect would be positive in terms of security of supply.

DATES December 1, 2014 to. Russian President Vladimir Putin, was in front of the cameras in the capital Ankara with Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. For a while Europe was experiencing difficulties related to the South Stream project on the agenda. And a statement very surprised, today announced the cancellation of the South Stream project will transport gas to Europe. Instead, the message can be made that a new line of Putin from Russia to Turkey, "Turkey's land border with Greece will be installed in a gas distribution center in the South met the demands of European customers," he said. Putin's South Stream pipeline route to Turkey by canceling the turn, made a shock in Europe. South Stream will be the entrance of Russian gas to Europe Bulgaria, he did not want to lose this position. International press and even the new "Turkish stream" became the name. Term Energy Minister Taner Yildiz said in a statement a few days later, for a new pipeline between Russia and Turkey, "That 'Turkish Movement' say. We're talking about a major project and funding, "he said.

Now the Russian natural gas, passing under the Black Sea, Turkey will take over Greece wanted to sell the Turkish Movement. But both can not be decided at the discount price of natural gas between the two countries, as happened after the attack aircraft did not progress in the project. Putin announced that the Turkish Stream project in the period since December 1, 2014, Turkey-Russia relations went through a serious test. And current point in Turkey again we came on our agenda today. Putin and Erdogan's decision came the revival of Turkish Stream project from the summit on Tuesday. Soon after, Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak, the Turkish first line in the current project stated in 2019 in the second half could be built, Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu "Talks will continue and will begin soon in Turkey Current work. We received from the West Movement to substitute Russian gas. 16 billion cubic meters of gas next year, more will connect to TANAP. In 2018 we plan to complete it, the gas will go to Europe, "he said.


DUE TO THESE TWO LINES
So what is the meaning of the Turkish Stream project? What is the importance of Russia and Turkey? We asked the experts do. The project, Turkey and crucial to meet the natural gas needs of the European countries, but on the other hand is trying to get rid of dependence on Russian gas to Europe. from 2019 while sales of gas to Europe bypassing Ukraine Russia to decide the area in search of alternate routes on the one hand, on the other hand does not want to lose its grip on European gas sales. Europe currently blocked in other ways Russia appears to be passed to the Turkish Movement lives therefore of great importance. Turkey in the medium and long term natural gas trade center (hub) position is aiming to come. Interpreted as a project to strengthen the Turkish Akımı'ys experts by the hands of Turkey in terms of being an energy center.

SECOND LINE IS ATTACHED?

OXFORD Institute of Energy Research Department Head of Gas Jonathan Stern, in the first place when he would be constructed of Turkish Stream's first line, then emphasizes that it is subject to the following two factors would inserted you a second line: "1) Turkey's whether additional gas demand from Russia, 2) The European Union (EU ) and regulatory issues between Russia, ie the enter any EU Russian gas to countries emerging regulatory issues, solving. "Sterne, in the case of Turkey's emergence needs more gas from Russia, saying it could be built you a second line," If Russia If the regulatory issues are resolved between the EU, we can see that this time the second line instead of a Turkish Movement preferred the South Stream line. TANAP or other projects such as Nord Stream 2 will proceed independently of these developments, "he says.


SECURITY ADVANTAGE
TURKEY Turkish Movement for benefits from Prof. Stern, "along with Turkey's main benefits of the Blue Stream pipeline with the Turkish Movement, formed to make the transit of gas from any third country. As long as Turkey-Russia political relations continued to remain strong, this is actually a very important safety advantage for Turkey. arrive at a judgment about the commercial benefits at this stage is more difficult, "Woods said.

RUSSIA NEEDS MORE

Energy Market Specialist Cuneyt Kazokoğl in the last month, the Russian gas company Gazprom in 2021 year as the European annual 2-3 billion cubic meters (bcm) said it plans to make more gas sales, he says: "This is over 5 years 10-15 billion It makes additional cubic meters of gas. Gazprom will sell gas to whom this? Gazprom's sales in Europe for the last 10 years there are only two countries that regularly increases in Germany and Turkey. Gazprom sold a total of 162 billion cubic meters of gas to Europe in 2005. This figure is 159 bcm in 2015, that is almost the same. Germany is Gazprom's gas sales to 36 bcm in 2005, rose to 45.3 in 2015. In 2005 from 18 bcm in sales to Turkey in 2015 increased to 27 bcm. except Gazprom, Germany and Turkey, while sales in the rest of Europe from 107.6 bcm in 2005, dropped to 86.2 bcm in 2015. Thus, Gazprom has two main objectives: energy conversion (Energiew career) project coal and trying to get out of nuclear and renewable energy sources in the time required until the majority of total supply is hoped to fill the gap of Russian gas to Germany and already a growing market of Turkey. Therefore, these two markets will provide direct access to capacity building and projects, Gazprom's projects deemed necessary to secure the next 10 years. So Germany will provide direct access to the Nord Stream 2 and Stream Turkey Turkey will provide direct access to (maybe the Blue Stream). I personally idea in this context, Russia to Turkey, which is more need because of Russia, because the main increase can sell gas to Russia's western Turkey expected the market. If we look from the perspective of Turkey, liquefied natural gas (LNG) growing excess supply available in the market. It also pulling down prices. Turkey, instead of projects that will increase the dependence on Russia can easily give weight to the new LNG terminals. "
