GAZPROM started supplying natural gas to Serbia via a new pipeline

On 01 January 2021, the Russian natural gas company Gazprom began supplying gas to Serbia, as well as to Bosnia and Herzegovina via a new route - through the territories of Turkey and Bulgaria. 

Gas from Russia is transported via the Turkish Stream offshore gas pipeline and further through Turkey. Then it goes to Serbia via the national gas transportation system of Bulgaria. Here gas is distributed and supplied to consumers in Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. 

"The Turkish Stream is a modern, efficient and reliable gas pipeline welcomed by European consumers. The number of European countries that receive Russian gas through the Turkish Stream has grown to six. Now, along with Bulgaria, Greece, North Macedonia and Romania, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina have provided themselves with such an opportunity, " said Alexey Miller, Chairman of the Gazprom Management Committee. 

The pipeline throughput capacity is 31.5 billion cubic meters of gas per year.
