The CEO of Gazprom, Alexey Miller, said that the discussion of the gas hub project in Turkey is the primary result of his visit to Ankara.

"Of course, it is a gas hub," Miller said, as quoted by the company. 

Miller on Friday discussed the supply of Russian gas to Turkish consumers, in addition to plans regarding the creation of a gas hub in Turkey with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Last week, Erdogan stated that Ankara is carrying out preparations to establish the gas hub project suggested earlier by Moscow.

"As you know, [Russian President Vladimir] Putin put forward a gas hub project in Turkey to redistribute gas to Europe. We are now making preparations for this," Erdogan said, noting that projects related to natural gas are not bound to wells in the Black and Mediterranean seas.

On October 12, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Moscow could redirect gas transit from the Nord Stream pipelines, damaged by an explosion classified by Russia as an act of terrorism, to Turkey. Unprecedented damage was dealt to three out of four Nord Stream pipelines in the Baltic Sea.

Turkish Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Fatih Donmez stated then that Turkey and Russia have come to an agreement over creating a gas hub that will link the two through Europe, and Ankara has already started on its part of the work.
