“We are leaving behind a critical stage with regard to Black Sea gas, and we are getting one step closer to the goal,” Donmez said in a tweet on Monday, referring to the ship’s approach to starting its work.
He stated that the ship, which will lay the pipeline at the bottom of the sea to transport gas, crossed the Çanakkale Strait on its way to the Filios facility in the state of Zonguldak on the coast of the Black Sea.
Donmez had previously announced that the pipelines that will support the arrival of natural gas to the Philios facility will start extending across the Black Sea in July.
