Gazprom boosts Blue Stream pipeline capacity to match Turkish demand

At a meeting today in Moscow, the two agreed to boost Blue Stream's capacity from 16 to 19 billion cubic meters a year and to carry out the relevant work. The Beregovaya CS in Russia and the Durusu receiving terminal in Turkey will be upgraded for this purpose.

“Turkey is our most evolving market in terms of supplies,” said Miller. “Gazprom has always reacted to the growing gas demand in Turkey by boosting supplies via Blue Stream. Today's decision will enable the Turkish economy to progress to a new stage.”
