Gazprom's gas exports via TurkStream to Europe at record high in February
Natural gas exports by Russia's energy giant Gazprom via the undersea TurkStream pipeline to Europe have reached a record high of more than 55 MMm3d this month, calculations showed on Friday.
The 1,100-km (684-mi) long trunk on the bed of the Black Sea remains Russia's sole pipeline gas exporting route to Europe after gas transit via Ukraine was shut on January 1 following the expiration of a deal to transport Russian gas via the neighboring country.
Russia exports gas to Europe through one portion of the twin TurkStream pipeline with the capacity of 15.75 Bm3y.
According to European gas transmission group Entsog, Russia's gas exports via TurkStream rose in February by 30.7% to 55.8 MMm3 from the same months a year ago, while also rising by 10% from January.
In total, Russia's gas supplies via the exporting line of TurkStream have increased to around 1.56 Bm3 this month from 1.24 Bm3 in February 2024. In January, which is three days longer, they stood at 1.57 Bm3.
Russia supplied about 63.8 Bm3 of gas to Europe by various routes in 2022, Gazprom data and Reuters calculations showed. That collapsed by 55.6% to 28.3 Bm3 in 2023 but recovered to about 32 Bm3 in 2024.
At their peak in 2018–2019, annual flows to Europe reached between 175 Bm3 and 180 Bm3.
