About the opening of TANAP
On November 30, 2019, the Ipsala settlement of Edirne province of Turkey hosted the opening ceremony of the part of TANAP connecting to Europe.
The 1,850-kilometer TANAP pipeline passes through the territory of Türkiye and delivers gas extracted from the Shah Ddeniz-2 gas condensate field in the Azerbaijani sector of the Caspian Sea to Turkish and European consumers. With a maximum annual transmission capacity of 31 billion cubic meters, TANAP connects to the South Caucasus Pipeline on the Türkiye-Georgia border, and to the TAP gas pipeline on the Türkiye-Greece border. In total, by the end of November 2023, about 55 billion cubic meters of gas were transmitted to Türkiye and Europe through TANAP.
