This one is tricky because there are two water withdrawal figures listed, the second one being 10 times larger than the first. The page has the following notes:

" Excluding water withdrawn for once-through-use (reported separately)"

" Increase in 2015 due to increased cooling water demand in CCGT Samsun. Volume of water used for once-through cooling water returned unchanged (excluding thermal effects) to water source as well as groundwater extracted solely for remediation or to control the migration of contaminated groundwater (IPIECA 201"

I have added the value that excludes "once-through use" because this water was returned to the source after being used for cooling. The amount of water used in this way in 2014 was 362.2 million cubic metres.
