The teams of the Turkish Petroleum Transport Company “BOTAŞ” completed the construction of the station for measuring the quantities of natural gas extracted from the Sakarya field in the Black Sea and its land transportation line.
According to a statement issued by the Turkish Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources on Tuesday, efforts are continuing to link the natural gas discovered in the Black Sea with the national system by the local oil company “TPAO” and “BOTAŞ”.
The statement added that the local natural gas will be transported by special pipelines to the Velios gas processing center in Zonguldak state (north), and then it will be linked to the national system, and then delivered by “BOTASH” to citizens’ homes.
