U.S. resumes oil product imports from Azerbaijan

The U.S. imported 46,000 barrels of oil from Azerbaijan in September, U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) said on Tuesday.

The last time the U.S. imported Azerbaijani oil products in 2008, when 308,000 barrels of oil products were supplied to the country.

According to the EIA, the entire volume of oil products imported into the United States in September accounted for naphtha (as raw material for petro chemistry).

Azerbaijan produces oil products at the two Baku oil refineries with a total capacity of 20 million tons of oil per year. Both oil refineries are owned by state oil company SOCAR, which annually processes about six to seven million tons of oil from the Azerbaijani offshore and onshore fields.
