                            Ankara: The Strategic City

From 11 - 13 March 2009 Ankara will be the host city of the 8th Turkish

International Oil & Gas Conference and Showcase. Ankara has not been inadvertently selected. O nce an important trading center on the

caravan route to the east, the city reflects nowadays the growing interest in Turkey's oil and gas sector as well as its strategic location and importance as a regional oil and gas transportation hub between  

Central Asia, the Middle East and Europe. Ankara is about as European as Turkey gets. Centrally located in Anatolia, Ankara is an important commercial and industrial city. It is the center of the Turkish Government, and houses all foreign embassies. It is an important crossroads of trade, strategically located at the center of Turkey's highway and railway networks, and serves as the marketing center for the surrounding agricultural area. Ankara is a vibrant international city which makes it a desirable location for either tourism or business.
