Botaş Dörtyol LNG Storage Facility

A delegation of ambassadors and charges-de-camp from Egypt, Jordan, Iraq, Qatar, Kuwait, Lebanon, Morocco, Sudan, Tunisia and Saudi Arabia visited the liquefied natural gas terminal at Alexandroupoli - a floating regasification and storage unit, or FSRU - last week.

US interest in utilizing Alexandroupoli as a key liquefied natural gas (LNG) transportation hub in the Central and Southeast Europe region is highlighted by the agreement American company Venture Global announced to book 25% of the capacity to the new floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU).

Two months after it was moored in the Thracian Sea, the floating natural gas storage and regasification unit (FSRU), named Alexandroupolis, will on Friday receive its first liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargo.

As Europe begins to recover from the shock of the energy crisis and concerns about gas shortages following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, investors are reassessing the prospect of investing in liquefied natural gas terminals.

Turkey's natural gas storage capacity will be increased from 4.7 billion cubic meters to 11 billion cubic meters by 2023, Energy and Natural Resources Minister Fatih Dönmez told parliament members on Dec. 7.

The market test phase for the project of FSRU (Floating Storage and Regasification Unit), of DIORIGA GAS A.E., of the Motor Oil group, begins.

With 110 million cubic meters of storage and 28 million cubic meters of gasification capacity, Turkey's first publicly owned floating liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage and gasification vessel (FSRU) will add significant flexibility to Turkey's energy supply chain security, according to Energy and Natural Resources Minister Fatih Dönmez.

Three joint ventures have been selected by Cyprus in the first stage of a tender to provide a floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) to import liquefied natural gas (LNG).
The first joint venture is led by China Petroleum Pipeline Engineering, Natural Gas Public Company of Cyprus (DEFA) said on its website.
