Özet:

Due to its significant advantages, natural gas, which forms an increasing share of world energy resources, has become one of the important energy resources worldwide. When natural gas prices are analyzed around the world, it is seen that the price formulas depend on petroleum products. Natural gas prices are increasing in proportion to the price increase in petroleum products. There is a simultaneous change in the same direction between oil prices and exchange rates. Natural gas prices are also determined depending on oil prices substantially in Turkey. Therefore, a hedging mechanism should be implemented against fluctuations in oil prices. Thus, the effect of prices on natural gas cost is reduced and the costs are controlled within a certain band interval or fixed by a single price. In this study, firstly the hedging of natural gas prices is explained with an example application. Then taxation processes of the natural gas trade and accounting records including taxation processes are presented. Herein, a guiding resource has been created for both real sector actors in the natural gas business and academics who plan to design an academic study on this subject.
