Saros FSRU Terminal

 

Saros FSRU Terminal and Land Connection Line Project Construction Work was realized by BOTAŞ for the design and construction of the facility located in Edirne province, Keşan district, Sazlıdere village, Gulf of Saros for the docking of FSRUs which, with floating systems, carry out the storage and regasification of liquefied natural gas supplied by LNG carrying ships and 17 km-long onshore pipeline connection with a capacity of 28 million m3/day natural gas transmission to the national grid.

Saros FSRU Project has added a significant support to the natural gas transmission system and a new entry point in the Thrace section of the Marmara Region, where our country's natural gas-based energy production and industrial facilities are concentrated and residential natural gas consumption is the highest. With the completion of the construction of the Saros FSRU Project, our country has become active in the Balkans and the global natural gas trade and has got one step closer to its goal of becoming a gas transmission and trade center.

Construction works started on October 16, 2020. The Project was completed and the facility was put into operation as of December 2022.
