Yolbulan Steel aims to strengthen Türkiye’s energy independence through its new liquefied gas investment
Yolbulan Steel, which aims to meet the country’s strategic gas needs through domestic resources, seeks to both enhance supply security and support economic and technological independence with this investment.
Production Vision and Strategy
We position Yolbulan Steel’s Eskişehir investment as a step aligned with Türkiye’s goal of reducing its dependence on imported liquefied gases. The new facility will focus on cryogenic gas production, enabling the high-purity and safe extraction of critical gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, argon, and carbon dioxide.
By ensuring local supply of these gases, the company aims to provide a stable and reliable source for power plants, the healthcare sector, and industrial applications with strong international competitiveness.
Technology-Oriented Progress
Yolbulan Steel’s new plant will be equipped with advanced automation and digital monitoring systems to maximize operational efficiency.
This approach, which integrates energy recovery and carbon footprint reduction solutions, seeks not only to lower production costs but also to create a sustainable manufacturing model.
Through partnerships with local engineering firms, the project also emphasizes strengthening the domestic design and production of cryogenic tanks, piping systems, and transportation solutions—an essential part of the program.
Strengthening Public-Private Cooperation
Developed in line with Türkiye’s goal of increasing local production capacity, this investment highlights its role as a “crisis insurance mechanism” in times of global disruption.
Lessons learned from the pandemic have driven the creation of domestic infrastructures that ensure reliable gas supply and reduce the risk of supply chain breaks.
Yolbulan Steel’s Eskişehir facility will comply with ISO 9001 (Quality Management), ISO 14001 (Environmental Management), and ISO 45001 (Occupational Health and Safety) standards.
Quality assurance mechanisms supported by CE and TSE certifications will further strengthen its export potential.
Global Competitiveness and Contribution to the National Economy
Increasing domestic production of liquefied gases supports Türkiye’s ambition to become a regional supply hub.
The new Eskişehir-based plant, thanks to its strategic location and logistical advantages, has the potential to strengthen supply chains serving the Middle East, the Balkans, and North Africa.
Expanding local production capacity will boost export potential, providing both direct and indirect contributions to the national economy.
Vision for the Future
Through its Eskişehir investment, Yolbulan Steel not only aims to meet its own needs but also to serve as a showcase for Türkiye’s domestic gas production.
At the same time, it seeks to encourage technological competence and R&D investments.
By placing quality, safety, and sustainability at the core of its production process, the company aims to enhance Türkiye’s industrial competitiveness.
A Step Toward a “Silent Industrial Revolution”
The expansion of liquefied gas production capacity—described as a silent revolution in Türkiye’s industrial infrastructure—is taking a tangible step forward with the new facility in Eskişehir.
Yolbulan Steel’s investment not only strengthens domestic production of critical gases but also stimulates technical capacity, employment, and innovation.
This initiative, designed to ensure Türkiye’s strategic gas needs are met securely and sustainably, stands out as a notable advancement in enhancing the global competitiveness of Turkish industry.
