![]() |
Energy security is one of the big challenges of our time, and with the war in Ukraine driving prices up, Türkiye has made another major find.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has announced the discovery of an additional 58 billion cubic meters of natural gas reserves under the Black Sea. He's declared that Ankara's goal is to be independent of foreign oil and natural gas as soon as possible. He says the latest discovery, 3,200 metres below sea level, will contribute greatly to that aim, because the market value of total reserves found is one trillion dollars.
