TANAP is important project for EU – Turkish minister

Baku, Azerbaijan, Dec.10
Trend:

TANAP is an important project for the European Union, Turkish Minister for EU Affairs Volkan Bozkir said in his interview with NTV TV channel.

He said that after Turkey's joining, TANAP turned into an important project for EU, adding that this project strengthens the country's influence in the region.

The TANAP project envisages gas transportation from Azerbaijan's Shah Deniz field to Europe through Turkey.

The initial capacity of TANAP is expected to reach 16 billion cubic meters of gas per year.

Around six billion cubic meters of the total volume of gas to be produced as part of the Stage 2 of development of the Shah Deniz field will be delivered to Turkey and 10 billion cubic meters to Europe per year.

Gas will be delivered to Turkey in 2018 and after the completion of construction of TAP, gas will be delivered to Europe roughly in early 2020.
