4. 4 is a big fleet. Those ships are like aircraft carriers for offshore drilling.

2 ships will operate in Blacksea. 1 ship will probably do exploration in Somalia. If East Med is put on hold, we can spare one more ship for another operation.

Those who are held up to the microphone about the term natural gas (trade) center, which sometimes comes to the fore on the agenda, focus solely on pipelines and gas volumes that will transit through Turkey, regardless of their titles. Let's be aware and not let us forget,
- Our Turkey is the 4th largest in Europe in terms of volume. It is one of the gas markets.
- The largest gas pipeline and LNG input, transmission, distribution and storage capacity in the region, i.e. gas infrastructure, already exists in Turkey.
- Turkey has implemented gas supply diversity planning with a strategy that should be explained in energy geopolitics textbooks and has presented a success story in this field.
- Gas production in our Sakarya field is planned to reach 15 bcm/year (1.5 bcf/d) in a short time.
- A shining energy exchange in the region, EPİAŞ, which uses local and national software, operates for gas and electricity commodities in Istanbul. Carbon will be added to this in a short time.

Diyarbakır Bar Association filed a lawsuit for the cancellation of oil exploration activities planned in Bismil, Ergani, Çermik, Silvan, Hazro. All of these regions are high potential exploration areas with high surface finds.

PKK has been known to utilize lawfare through its civilian branch. It's a shame they are allowed to do it tbh.

While this in itself is not directly bad, Exxon is the same company searching oil in Blue Homeland with Greek Cypriot license.


NEW: Turkey in talks with ExxonMobil over $1.1bn LNG deal, says Turkish Energy Minister Bayraktar

• The 2.5mn tonnes of LNG under discussion would be enough to cover roughly 7% of Turkey’s natural gas consumption

• The deal could last a decade

• Aiming to curb Russian dependence

AFAIK they haven't started any extraction work.

This might be a hedge deal to keep the US establishment at bay when the Iraq-Syria ops finally go.
Those vultures in the US congress won't be as enthusiastic to take action against us when they all got their own personal Exxon lobbyist go "No! STAHP!" in their ear simultaneously.

No, they will as they usually do. 1 billion is pocket change for those people. No lobbying group is enough when the entirety of the establishment is against you from dems to reps.

It isn't the billion that'll keep them at bay. It is the fact that Turkiye is a solid customer that they have an ongoing deal with.
Lets say you run a white goods store. You just shook hands with this customer that will pay you the installments of his new fridge, in the dealer, with cash money for 12 months straight.

You don't want him to get hurt, do ya?

Same logic.
