In order to expand storage capacity in the face of increasing demand, Turkey is poised to operationalize two more liquefied natural gas (LNG) floating storage and regasification units (FSRU), with one to start operating by the end of the year, Daily Sabah reports.
Elaborating on the course to follow for supply security, Energy Minister Berat Albayrak (L) underscored the goal to diversify energy resources and routes, expand drilling and seismic survey operations, strengthen energy infrastructure and prioritize energy efficiency.
