It is essential in the interests of a well-functioning gas market that the necessary investments in indigenous production and infrastructures, such as interconnections, in particular those providing access to the gas network of the Union, equipment allowing physical bi-directional gas flows on pipelines as well as storage and LNG re-gasification facilities, be made by natural gas undertakings in good time, bearing in mind possible supply disruptions such as the one that occurred in January 2009. When forecasting the financial needs fo ...[+++]r gas infrastructure in relation to Union instruments, the Commission should give, as appropriate, priority to the infrastructure projects which support the integration of the internal gas market and security of gas supply.

In Turkey, EIB has contributed todate with more than EUR 2 billion towards projects of key importance for the Turkish economy. In the last years EIB finance went mainly for the earthquake reconstruction efforts. Additionally EIB funds have financed mainly projects in the environment sector. Among the projects financed in Turkey are: the wastewater and effluent treatment systems in Adana, Diyarbakir, Izmit and Tarsus; the desulphurisation equipment at the Yeniköy power station on the Aegean coast, the construction of more environment- ...[+++]friendly power and heating plants, as well as, the Silivri Underground Gas Storage, which is a nationwide project to help improve the supply of natural gas.

Following its investigations, the Commission informed the undertakings concerned that when they introduced clauses in gas contracts specifying exclusivity, duration, storage equipment, prohibition on resale and the "English clause" which obliged the customer to give the supplier details of competitors offering better terms, they were acting contrary to Article 85 of the Treaty, which forbids anti- competitive agreements between undertakings.
