LNG is firmly established as a crucial enabler of economic stability and growth in Europe and Asia. Situated at the meeting point of the two continents, and long appreciated as a point of cross-cultural and commercial exchange, Istanbul will provide the perfect setting for this year’s World LNG Summit & Awards.
Türkiye is home to a world-renowned energy sector, with our Host Sponsor BOTAŞ announcing a series of ambitious steps to grow the national LNG import sector. The Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources has recently agreed a historic international joint venture on natural gas exploration, ushering in a new era of multilateral collaboration and increased energy production. Türkiye is a confident and influential partner in matters of international trade and diplomacy, and Istanbul its economic engine room.
