Woodside has formalized a major long-term agreement to deliver liquefied natural gas supplies to Türkiye’s BOTAS, representing a significant commitment to energy security in the Eastern Mediterranean region. The partnership will run for approximately nine years beginning in 2030, with Woodside pledging to supply 0.5 million tonnes of LNG annually to the Turkish pipeline operator.
In terms of scale, the deal encompasses roughly 5.8 billion cubic meters of natural gas equivalent over the contract period. This substantial volume demonstrates Woodside’s confidence in meeting BOTAS’s energy demand through its diversified portfolio, with the Louisiana LNG project in the United States serving as the primary source for these deliveries. The Australian energy company will complement Louisiana LNG volumes with additional resources from its global operations to ensure consistent supply flows.
The agreement reflects growing international cooperation in the global LNG market, particularly as countries seek to diversify their energy sources and secure reliable long-term supplies. By anchoring supply commitments years in advance, both Woodside and BOTAS are positioning themselves within a strategic framework that prioritizes energy stability and commercial predictability in an increasingly competitive sector.
This arrangement underscores the importance of long-term partnerships in the liquefied natural gas industry, where infrastructure investments and supply chain coordination require multi-year planning horizons. The 2030 commencement date aligns with the anticipated completion of Woodside’s Louisiana development, allowing the company to fulfill its obligations through an operational facility rather than navigating spot market volatility.
