In February 2025, Gazprom reached a historical maximum in the supply of gas to Europe through the gas pipeline Turkish flow, exceeding 55 million cubic meters a day. This happened after the termination of supplies through other key routes, such as Yamal-Europe gas pipelines, the north stream and the cessation of transportation across Ukraine since January 2025.
After shutting down other supply routes, the Turkish stream remained the only route for transporting Russian gas to Europe. The capacity of this gas pipeline is 15.75 billion cubic meters per year. In February 2025, the average daily volume of gas supply through this route increased by 30.7% compared to February 2024, reaching 55 million cubic meters per day, which is a record.
Gazprom's total exports to Europe through the Turkish Stream in February 2025 amounted to approximately 1.56 billion cubic meters, which is 25.8% more than in February 2024 (1.24 billion cubic meters). This indicates a significant increase in supply against the background of a difficult geopolitical situation and changes in the gas market.
Despite the record increase in supply through the Turkish flow, Russian gas exports to Europe remain much lower than the peak indicators, reached in 2018-2019. Gazprom then supplied more than 175-180 billion cubic meters of gas per year, providing more than 80% of exports to Europe.
