With the participation of the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Alparslan BAYRAKTAR, the signing ceremony of the agreement, which was registered with the signatures of Abdulvahit FİDAN, Chairman of the Board of Directors and General Manager of BOTAŞ, and Gregory JOFFROY, Senior Vice President of TotalEnergies LNG, was held in Houston, USA during the Gastech Conference, where representatives from the energy sector meet.

The LNG supply agreement signed with TotalEnergies will increase portfolio diversity and flexibility, and BOTAŞ will gain new competencies in the field of LNG transportation as it will receive LNG from the loading port by ships.

It will also strengthen BOTAŞ’s position in the global market through the enhanced operational and commercial capabilities.

In line with Türkiye’s vision of becoming an energy hub, BOTAŞ has demonstrated its growing presence in the sector through recent infrastructure investments it has made, increased technical capacities it has reached and commercial agreements it has signed. With the new agreements to be signed in the upcoming period, BOTAŞ will continue to change the energy landscape of the region as well as Türkiye.
