# Europe's gas withdrawals hit date records as Gazprom's deliveries to Turkey nearly quadruple

> EU gas storage was about 73% full in early November, the lowest level for that date since records began, as withdrawals accelerated after the heating season began. Net withdrawals rose nearly fivefold from November 1 to November 6, while Gazprom said its deliveries to Turkey had almost quadrupled.

## Why it matters

Rapid storage drawdowns raise the risk of tighter European gas availability and stronger winter prices, with potential knock-on effects for energy-intensive feed and fertilizer production. Increased Russian deliveries to Turkey may redirect supply but do not remove pressure on EU inventories.
