Bulgaria inks deal for gas deliveries via Turkey

(ANSA-AFP) - SOFIA, JAN 3 - Bulgaria on Tuesday signed a long-term deal for access to Turkey's liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals and transit network, in a move to secure alternatives after Russia cut off deliveries in April. The agreement between Bulgaria's state-owned gas operator Bulgargaz and Turkish state gas firm Botas will allow the EU nation to unload LNG at its neighbour's gas terminals and use the Botas network to transport gas. "Thanks to this agreement we secure the possibility to buy gas from all international producers and unload it in Turkey, where it's most convenient for us logistically," Bulgaria's interim Energy Minister Rosen Hristov said after the deal was signed.
