The Turkish Stream pipeline, due to supply Russian gas to Turkey via the Black Sea from 2019, is already 80% complete, Gazprom CEO Alexei Miller said.
“The realization of large-scale Gazprom export projects to Europe are continuing,” Miller noted. “There is the Turkish Stream gas pipeline: 1,500 kilometers of pipe, around 80% of the line” has been assembled, he said during a meeting.
The CEO added that over the first eight months of the year, Gazprom exported over 133 billion cubic meters of gas to Turkey and the EU - up 5.6% on the same period of the previous year.
The Russian giant continues to announce record export volumes to the region, where it generates a sizeable portion of its profits, AFP reported.
