With an annual gas consumption surpassing 50 Bm3, Turkey has been boosting its LNG imports, which constituted 30% of its gas purchases in 2023 and could rise to 40% by 2024.

Additionally, Turkish Energy Minister's hinted at forthcoming energy projects with Caspian countries, aiming to bolster European and global energy security, although specifics were not disclosed.
