surrendered gains, however, perhaps reflecting dissatisfaction among financial
specialists over the size of the store.
"We have directed this activity
totally through national methods," Erdogan said Friday in a much-followed
question and answer session at his office in Istanbul. "We didn't depend'
the slightest bit on unfamiliar sources in penetrating tasks."
The Fatih drill transport found the gas in
the alleged Fish 1 field, he stated, and investigation is proceeding in
different fields.
"The inquiry currently is the amount
of this gas is recoverable," said Jonathan Sheep, oil and gas senior
examiner at Wood and Friends, a Czech venture bank. "This isn't clear yet.

The Faith has been penetrating to a
profundity of 3,500 to 4,000 meters (11,500 to 13,000 feet), Vitality Pastor
Fatih Donmez said a month ago. Turkey's state-run oil organization TPAO, be

coast, is near a zone where oceanic fringes of Bulgaria and Romania join and
not a long way from Romania's Neptun hinder, the biggest gas find operating at
a profit Ocean in decades found eight years back by Petrom and Exxon.

in the Russian piece of the Dark Ocean yet without solid outcomes.
