The statement pointed out that Sonatrach has been supplying Turkish BOTAŞ with liquefied gas since 1988.

A few days ago, Sonatrach CEO Rachid Hachichi said at an energy conference in Italy that the company’s gas production amounted to 130 billion cubic meters, of which 45 billion were destined for internal consumption and the rest for export.
