Turkey's state-owned Petroleum Pipeline Corporation (BOTAS) will invest 65 million dollars to transmit natural gas to twenty-five organized industrial zones in the country, said ministry officials on Friday.
Turkey's energy ministry and ministry of science, industry and technology held a meeting and authorised BOTAS to convey the natural gas to twenty-five organized industrial zones at twenty-two cities in the country. BOTAS is aiming to finish the transmitting process in three years.
Turkey has 279 organized industrial zones and some of them have faced production trouble due to insufficiency of infrastructure and lack of natural gas. Officials target to enhance the production quality in organized industrial sites and rise the awareness of investors by developing infrastructure works of the sites.
