Since 2008, the SOCAR Company has set up an extended network of CNG stations spaced around 200 250 km apart in an attempt to link up different locations in Turkey such as Izmir, Istanbul, Ankara and Mersin. This corridor is integrated in the pan-European network of CNG stations and makes the cheaper and cleaner fuel more easily accessible for fleets and public transport companies.

Among municipal and public service providers all around the world, compressed natural gas(CNG) is enjoying growing popularity. CNG is seen as a commercially viable and more eco-friendly solution, offering lower costs, reduced emissions and a reduction in noise pollution by up to 30 percent. Particularly in countries and regions in which the expansion of renewable energies and storage technologies such as Power-to-X is not becoming economically viable in mid term on account of the high levels of investment required, the use of CNG in communal sectors is a fast and inexpensive solution for reducing emissions.
In cooperation with local energy providers, a number of CNG projects have been successfully implemented in recent years in Turkey. In order to produce, transport and store CNG, natural gas needs to be compressed to very high pressures. For this reason, very high demands are often placed in terms of the purity of the natural gas and the safety and quality of all technical systems in relation to CNG.
