Energy & Natural Resources
Turkey’s rapid grown and youthful demographics have made it one of the fastest growing energy markets in the world. Turkey wishes to realize its own energy security; and to use its geographical advantages to become a regional energy “hub”. Whilst Turkey may not have many of its own oil and gas reserves, it is rich in natural resources and many mining companies are seeking to exploit this potential.
