Azerbaijan's gas supply to Turkiye will be temporarily halted in
August due to scheduled maintenance on the export pipeline,
Azernews reports.
According to Turkiye's state oil and gas company, BOTAŞ, the
suspension will occur from July 31 to August 5 at the "Turkgözü"
entry point into Turkiye's national gas distribution network, and
from August 5 to August 9 at the "Seyitgazi" entry point of the
Trans-Anatolian Gas Pipeline (TANAP).
During this period, maintenance and repair work on the "Shah
Deniz" pipeline will affect natural gas supplies. BOTAŞ has assured
that measures are in place to maintain the balance of supply and
demand in the national gas distribution network.
Azerbaijan's gas, extracted from the first and second stages of
the Shah Deniz field, is supplied to Turkiye. The exploration,
development, and production sharing agreement for the Shah Deniz
field was signed on June 4, 1996, ratified on October 17, 1996, and
the field, located 70 km southeast of Baku, was discovered in
1999.
