Bulgaria: Elliott Investment Management explores strategic acquisition of TurkStream assets and infrastructure

Hedge fund Elliott Investment Management is considering acquiring Bulgarian infrastructure assets, including a key section of the TurkStream gas pipeline, which is currently Russia’s only active gas route to Europe. The fund is also interested in related infrastructure such as data centers, cables, and other facilities linked to the pipeline.

Although discussions remain preliminary, Elliott has signed a confidentiality agreement with Bulgartransgaz, Bulgaria’s gas transmission operator. The investment could include refinancing Bulgartransgaz’s existing debt, but no terms have been finalized and the investment’s overall scale is still unclear.

TurkStream has grown in strategic importance since other major Russian pipelines to Europe have been halted due to the Ukraine conflict. It supplies gas through the Black Sea to Turkey and onward to European countries like Hungary and Slovakia. Before the war, Russia supplied nearly half of Europe’s gas, a share now reduced to less than a fifth.

Elliott’s involvement, as a US firm, could add complexity and protection against further sanctions on Russian energy exports. This aligns with broader US diplomatic strategies leveraging energy ties in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, including discussions about potentially restoring the damaged Nord Stream pipeline.

Beyond the pipeline itself, Elliott aims to invest in a broader infrastructure portfolio, including digital and logistical assets, to strengthen Bulgaria’s energy network. Diversifying investments could reduce geopolitical risks and bolster Bulgaria’s regional energy role.
