A record-breaking offshore pipeline: 7 million dollars in investment, 930 kilometers of total line, the world’s largest construction ship – the pioneering spirit – committed to laying 5.7 kilometers a day, about one pipe every eight minutes laid in the sea. It is the Turkish stream, a marine gas pipeline that starts from the Russian city of Anapa on the Black Sea coast and continues to Kiyikoy in the Thrace region of Turkey: within a couple of years, it will take the Russian gas to Europe, and it is already fighting the big diplomats of the country world. An impressive project, however, from a technical point of view, with two parallel tubes with a capacity of 15.75 billion cubic meters, which will cross the deep waters of the Black Sea: 1161 kilometers (62 percent of its total length) are already been settled.
