Gazprom and Petroleum Pipeline Corp. (Botas) signed a memorandum of understanding On Dec. 1, 2014, to construct TurkStream. The pipeline will extend 660 km along the old route of the South Stream gas pipeline and cover 250 km of a new route toward the European portion of Turkey. The first string is planned to exclusively supply gas to the Turkish market.
