Turkey to be the least affected country in case of a natural gas shortage


ANKARA
Turkey would be one of the least affected countries as Turkey had its private transfer line, the officials told AA on Friday.
They said that Turkey was still self-sufficient in natural gas within the scope of the existing contracts.
Turkey was one of the countries which had the best position because it had its own private line --such as Blue Stream-- that would supply natural gas directly, said the officials.
Natural gas consumption of Turkey in the past five years (2008-2012):

2008          37.5
2009          35.7
2010          39
2011          44
2012          48* (*prediction)
