TANAP — the Trans-Anatolian Natural Gas Pipeline — was formally agreed between Azerbaijan and Turkey in 2012, with construction beginning in 2015. The pipeline was designed to carry Azerbaijani gas from the Shah Deniz II field across Turkey toward Europe, a project with obvious strategic implications for both Ankara and Brussels as each sought to diversify away from Russian supply. This coin was issued the year active construction was underway, before the line's completion in 2018.
