Chinese Crew Keeps Lights On: Lunar New Year at Turkey’s Tuz Lake Gas Storage Project

More than 200 workers from a Chinese construction firm and Turkish staff stayed on site at the Tuz Lake underground gas storage expansion in Aksaray to maintain operations and lay pipelines over Lunar New Year. The project, a Turkish national priority, will bolster gas storage capacity and缓解 energy supply risks while also illustrating China’s growing role in overseas energy infrastructure and infrastructure diplomacy.
