本文阐述了土耳其在向欧洲供应天然气方面的当前和潜在作用，首先是欧盟对天然气的需求，全球天然气处置的地理位置以及土耳其作为天然漏斗的重要性，欧盟可以通过它从许多世界领先的天然气供应商那里获得天然气。它还将土耳其的角色置于欧盟依赖俄罗斯作为其最大单一天然气供应国的背景下。它涉及现有的和潜在的管道基础设施，通过土耳其向欧洲供应天然气，并讨论了欧盟已经发挥的作用，并可能在未来发挥作用，以确保其能源安全，通过管道发展，通过土耳其将天然气输送到欧盟市场。天然气是本文的主要焦点。虽然石油安全对欧盟来说显然很重要，土耳其是石油供应的主要过境国，但从地理上讲，确保欧盟石油安全的问题本质上是一个全球性的问题。这主要是石油可替代性的结果。因此，石油问题载于附录。
This paper sets out Turkey’s current and potential role in the supply of gas to Europe, starting with the EU’s need for gas, the geography of global gas disposition and Turkey’s importance as a natural funnel through which the EU can access gas from many of the world’s leading gas suppliers. It also places Turkey’s role in the context of EU reliance on Russia as its largest single supplier of gas. It deals with the existing and potential pipeline infrastructure for gas supplies to Europe via Turkey and discusses what role the EU is already playing, and might be expected to play in the future, with regard to ensuring its energy security by means of pipeline development to carry gas to the EU market via Turkey. Gas is the prime focus of the paper. Although oil security is of obvious importance to the EU and Turkey is a major transit country for oil supplies, essentially the problem of ensuring oil security for the EU is, in geographical terms, a global one. This is essentially a consequence of the fungibility of oil. Oil issues are therefore covered in an appendix.
