BLBG:BP Azeri Gas Exports to Turkey Fall 11% in 11 Months, Turan Says
BP Plc’s Shah Deniz natural-gas field in Azerbaijan recorded an 11 percent drop in exports to Turkey in the first 11 months from a year earlier, the Turan news agency said today, citing the State Statistics Committee.
The 4.1 billion cubic meters of exports from the first phase of the project compares with the annual 6.6 billion cubic meters Turkey’s government pipeline company Boru Hatlari Ile Petrol Tasima AS, or Botas, committed to buying from Azerbaijan under an agreement signed in March 2001, Turan said.
