Marmara Ereğlisi LNG Storage Facility

The LNG storage facility is located in Marmara Ereğlisi, 35 km (22 mi) east of Tekirdağ and 95 km (59 mi) west of Istanbul.

It is part of an LNG terminal operated by the state-owned natural gas distributor BOTAŞ,[1] where LNG carriers at a discharge port pump the imported cargo ashore.

LNG is stored in tanks and regasified to convey to the main pipeline system as needed.

[2] The project for the construction of the LNG storage facility was launched in 1984.

In 2007, six filling platforms were added for tank trucks having 20–50 m3 (710–1,770 cu ft) capacity.
