THE BLACK SEA AND EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN is a key regional refining and consumption cluster. The refining capabilities of Turkey, Romania, Bulgaria, the complex and interwoven crude and product supply routes, the major transportation hubs out of Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Azerbaijan, sanctioned and non-sanctioned Russian streams running across the Black Sea and the Bosporus combine to make this region one of the most important oil and gas global clusters.
The host city for the Turkey – Black Sea retreat is Izmir, home to the most modern Turkish refineries and the country’s leading petrochemical cluster. What is also important, city provides a stimulating backdrop for socialisation and communication.
