   <abstract xml:lang="ru">
    <p>В условиях современной структурной трансформации мировой энергетической системы, обусловленной геополитической нестабильностью и климатическими императивами, исследование роли Турции как ключевого элемента новой газотранспортной архитектуры приобретает особую актуальность. Статья посвящена комплексному анализу ресурсного потенциала и объективных ограничений на пути становления Турецкой Республики в качестве международного газового хаба в условиях обострения глобальной конкуренции за доступ к стратегическим энергоресурсам. &#13;
В работе детально рассматриваются геоэкономические и инфраструктурные факторы, включая функционирование стратегических трубопроводных магистралей («Трансанатолийский газопровод» (TANAP), «Турецкий поток», «Голубой поток») и терминалов сжиженного природного газа (СПГ), а также перспективы модернизации и расширения существующих транзитных мощностей. Целью исследования выступает оценка перспектив эволюции Турции от статуса транзитного коридора к полноценному энергетическому торговому центру, способному влиять на глобальные механизмы ценообразования и управление потоками. Научная новизна работы заключается в системном подходе к определению роли создаваемого хаба в обеспечении энергетической безопасности Европы в контексте поиска альтернативных маршрутов поставок углеводородов и снижения зависимости от традиционных импортеров. &#13;
Результаты анализа демонстрируют, что, несмотря на уникальное географическое положение между крупнейшими ресурсодобывающими регионами (Россия, Каспийский бассейн, Ближний Восток) и европейскими рынками сбыта, практическая реализация проекта требует преодоления ряда существенных инфраструктурных, нормативно-правовых и рыночных барьеров. В заключении обосновывается вывод о том, что успешное формирование газового хаба является важнейшим инструментом долгосрочной стратегии Турции, направленной на укрепление позиций в мировой экономике и развитие перспективных направлений, включая водородную энергетику.</p>

   <trans-abstract xml:lang="en">
    <p>In the context of the current structural transformation of the global energy system, driven by geopolitical instability and climate imperatives, research into Turkey's role as a key element of the new gas transportation architecture is becoming particularly relevant. This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the resource potential and objective constraints on the Turkish Republic's emergence as an international gas hub amid intensifying global competition for access to strategic energy resources.&#13;
The paper examines in detail geo-economic and infrastructure factors, including the operation of strategic pipelines (Trans-Anatolian Pipeline (TANAP), Turkish Stream, Blue Stream) and liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals, as well as the prospects for modernizing and expanding existing transit capacities. The aim of the study is to assess the prospects for Turkey's evolution from a transit corridor to a full-fledged energy trading hub capable of influencing global pricing mechanisms and flow management. The scientific novelty of the work lies in a systematic approach to determining the role of the hub being created in ensuring Europe's energy security in the context of searching for alternative routes for hydrocarbon supplies and reducing dependence on traditional importers. &#13;
The results of the analysis demonstrate that, despite its unique geographical location between the largest resource-producing regions (Russia, the Caspian Basin, the Middle East) and European markets, the practical implementation of the project requires overcoming a number of significant infrastructure, regulatory, and market barriers. The conclusion justifies the conclusion that the successful formation of a gas hub is an essential tool in Turkey's long-term strategy aimed at strengthening its position in the global economy and developing promising areas, including hydrogen energy.</p>
