石油设备网讯 据莫斯科时报7月10日报道，上周，俄罗斯天然气工业股份公司（Gazprom）邀请银行分析师前往土耳其考察土耳其溪天然气管道的建设工作。报告称，这条管道的工作正在按计划进行，目前，已经完成了90%，大约会在年底前上线。
土耳其溪天然气管道是俄罗斯至欧洲三条重要管道系统的一部分，Gazprom通过该管道向气主要客户供应天然气。土耳其管道扩展了南部路线，是贯穿乌克兰的德鲁日巴管道的补充，自苏联时代以来一直是主要管道。在波罗的海进行建设的北溪2号管道，运输能力为550亿立方米，最近一直是激烈的政治争论的主题。
北溪2号天然气管道的反对者声称，这将使欧洲更加依赖俄罗斯天然气，尽管也可以用同样的理由反对土耳其天然气管道的建设，但很少有人谈及后者，因为大部分管道都经过土耳其，而土耳其不是欧盟成员国，因此欧盟认为继续铺设土耳其管道不太有影响。
上周，分析人士访问了俄罗斯的Russkaya压气站——土耳其输气管道的起点以及土耳其的接收终端。
Gazprom还举行了圆桌会议，该公司和专家们（IHS Markit、S&P Global Platts和Eppen Consulting）提供了他们对欧洲天然气市场的看法和展望。
土耳其管道项目的运输能力为315亿立方米，它将从俄罗斯南部地区向土耳其输送天然气，然后再向南欧输送。
Gazprom的分析师在一份报告中表示：“Gazprom已经完成了俄罗斯国家石油公司（Russkaya）压气站和两条海上管道的建设。截至6月21日，土耳其接收终端的建设工程已完成86%。”
Gazprom重申，计划在今年年底前使该管道投产。

Turkish Stream Pipeline is Almost Finished, Gazprom Says
Last week Russian state-owned gas giant Gazprom invited bank analysts on a trip to inspect the construction work on the Turkish Stream (aka TurkStream) pipeline. They report work on the pipeline is on schedule and that it is 90% complete and should go online before the end of the year.
Turkish Stream is part of a trident of pipelines running from Russia to Europe to supply gas to Gazprom’s main customers. Turkish Stream expands the southern route and is an addition to the Druzhba pipeline that runs through Ukraine and has been the main conduit since Soviet times. More controversial is the construction of the 55 billion cubic metre (bcm) Nord Stream 2 pipeline that runs under the Baltics and has been the subject of bitter political wrangling.
Opponents of Nord Stream 2 claim that it will make Europe more dependent on Russian gas, but while the same argument could be made against Turkish Stream, little has been said about the latter as most of the pipeline runs through Turkey, which is not an European Union (EU) member and so the EU has no leverage over Ankara’s decision to go ahead with the pipeline.
Analysts visited the Russkaya compressor station in Russia last week, the starting point of the Turkish Stream pipeline, and the receiving Turkish Stream terminal in Turkey.
Gazprom also held a roundtable discussion at which the company and independent experts (IHS Markit, S&P Global Platts and EPPEN Consulting) provided their views and outlooks on the European gas market.
The capacity of the Turkish Stream project is 31.5bcm. It will deliver gas from Russia’s southern region to Turkey and then on to southern Europe.
“Gazprom has already finished construction of both the Russkaya compressor station and two offshore pipelines, while construction works at the receiving terminal in Turkey were 86% completed as of June 21,” VTB Capital (VTBC) analysts who went on the trip said in a note.
Gazprom reiterated its plan to bring the pipeline online by the end of this year.
