Nearly 208 064 thousand barrels of oil were transported via Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline (BTC) through Turkish territory last year, which is 11.5% less in comparison with the corresponding period of previous year, Turkey’s crude oil and natural gas pipelines and trading company BOTAS told APA-Economics.
235,243 thousand barrels of oil were transported via the pipeline through Turkey in 2019.
Note that oil, produced in the Azeri-Chirag-Gunashli fields of Azerbaijan, is imported via BTC pipeline. Moreover, oil of other producers is also transported to Turkey territory.
