Trend: Who will build Trans-Caspian gas pipeline?
The issue of the need to diversify the sources and routes of gas supplies to Europe is very relevant and on everyone's lips in recent years. However, making ideas become real is important, and in this regard, Azerbaijan has succeeded enough.
In particular, Trans-Anatolian Gas Pipeline (TANAP) and Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP), which are the constituent elements of the Southern Gas Corridor, will be built within the framework of 10 billion cubic meters of gas supply on the European market in the second stage of the Shah Deniz field development.
Namely Azerbaijani gas is considered as the main source for the Southern Gas Corridor, which has great potential both for the supply of gas from other Azerbaijani deposits and other countries. The possibility of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean sources’ joining the project is not ruled out. Turkmenistan can also be considered as an additional source of gas.
