Turkey Makes $30 Billion Natural Gas Discovery in the Black Sea
- On May 17, 2025, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan revealed that Turkey had found a substantial natural gas deposit at the Goktepe-3 well in the Black Sea.
- The discovery follows Turkey’s intensified efforts to reduce energy imports by increasing domestic production and expanding drilling and seismic research activities.
- The drilling at Goktepe-3, performed by the seventh-generation ship Abdulhamid Han, lasted 49 days and reached a depth of 3,500 meters, yielding promising results.
- Turkey’s newly discovered natural gas deposit in the Black Sea, valued at around $30 billion, is expected to supply the country’s household energy requirements for approximately three and a half years, according to President Erdogan.
- This discovery strengthens Turkey’s strategic goal of energy independence and supports the Sakarya gas field’s daily output of 9.5 million cubic meters in the Black Sea.
