Astana vows to meet its BTC supply obligations
Kazakhstan will fully meet its obligations on transporting crude
oil through the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan (BTC) main export pipeline, its
Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, Sauat Mynbayev, said.
He noted that 23 million tons of the Central Asian republic`s oil will be, annually, pumped through the pipeline, with the figure reaching 38.6 million tons after expansion operations have been completed.
Also, Turkish Energy Minister Hilmi Guler, who visited Kazakhstan last week, discussed energy projects with his counterpart.
Guler said the terminal in the Turkish Mediterranean port of Ceyhan, which has, in recent years, turned into a major corridor for pumping Azeri oil and gas to world markets, is also about to become a major hub receiving hydrocarbons from Iran, Russia and Central Asia.
