The leadership of the Russian Corporation "Gazprom" has made clear that the Firm is not going to delay with the construction of the gas pipeline "Turkish stream" and plans to deliver gas to the European Union, bypassing Ukraine By 2019, says U.S. private intelligence-analysis Firm. Stratfor emphasize that the project has already attracted Italian energy Company Saipem and the German Europipe." Russia said that construction of the underwater part of the pipeline is scheduled for June." Gazprom has notified the European countries of the intention to abandon the route of gas exports through Ukraine to 2019, the year and switch to transit through the "Turkish stream," writes Stratfor. Moscow has renewed the contract for production and delivery of not less than 150 thousand tons of pipes with Europipe, and removed the limits on the contract with the Italian Saipem. Firm starts work in the shallow waters of the Black sea marine construction thread "Turkish stream" in the first decade of June. So, pipes purchased for the "South stream" will be used in the construction of "Turkish stream," emphasizes analytical center. at the same time, writes Stratfor, Analysts have questioned Russia's ability to speed up the erection, if the European organization still fails to begin construction of its part of the infrastructure of the pipeline. Moscow, for its part, has invested sufficient funds to begin construction of the first of the 4 parallel gas pipeline " Turkish stream ". Full implementation of the project " Turkish stream ", noted in the article, is quite a laborious process, and its implementation, Russia may face political and financial constraints. Anyway, the approach of the Russian capital embodies thoughtful and calculated the potential risks of the construction plan ". "Turkey, whose demand for natural gas over the last 10 years has increased not less than 2 times, is one of the most important in the long term markets for the Russian Federation. By the beginning of the second half of the 2020s, the Turkish demand can reach a capacity of 2 branches of " Turkish stream ", and, most likely, Ankara is currently in need in Gaza, which can be delivered via 1st Russian gas pipeline project ". in opinion of analysts, implementing the project " Turkish stream, Russia kills 2 birds with one stone - if European countries will build part of the infrastructure, Moscow will be able to immediately take advantage of the opportunity to increase the volumes of gas supplies to the European Union. Otherwise, the new pipeline will allow Russia to export natural gas to the rapidly growing Turkish market.
