Syria is actively seeking foreign investment in its energy sector, welcoming Turkish companies to participate in post-war reconstruction, as stated by Energy Minister Mohammed al-Bashir during the Istanbul Natural Resources Summit. Al-Bashir emphasized opportunities in exploration, drilling, refining, and the rehabilitation of power infrastructure, highlighting a forthcoming agreement for a 400-kilovolt transmission line to improve energy supply.
