Turkey
Today and Tomorrow:
"...
Turkey 's strategic location makes it a natural " Energy Bridge
" between major oil producing areas in the Middle East and
Caspian Sea regions on the one hand, and consumer markets in Europe
on the other. Turkey 's port of Ceyhan is an important outlet both
for current Iraqi oil exports as well as for potential future Caspian
oil exports. Turkey 's Bosporus Straits are a major shipping "choke
point" between the Black and Mediterranean Seas . Finally,
Turkey is a rapidly growing energy consumer in its own right.."
Oil provides
over 40% of Turkey 's total energy requirements
Turkey
's port of Ceyhan is a major outlet for global oil exports
TPAO
alone accounts for about 80% of the country's total oil output
Hakkari
Basin is Turkey 's main oil producing area
Turkey
contains oil prospects in its European provinces, in the Black Sea
shelf region and in other oil basins in southern and south-eastern
Turkey
Turkey
consumes 748 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of natural gas
In September
2004, TPAO said that it had found a viable gas deposit at the Ayazli-1
well off the Turkish Black Sea coast
Natural
gas is Turkey 's preferred fuel for new power plant capacity for
several reasons:
Environmental (gas is less polluting than coal
or oil)
Geographic ( Turkey is located near to huge
amounts of gas in the Middle East and Central Asia )
Economic ( Turkey could offset part of its
energy import bill through transit fees it could charge for oil
and gas shipments across its territory)
Political ( Turkey is seeking to strengthen
relations with Caspian and Central Asian countries, several of which
are potentially large gas exporters)
