Kazakhstan’s national company KazMunayGaz (KMG) resumed oil supplies via the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan (BTC) pipeline on September 13, according to KMG.
Kazmunaygaz said a substantial consignment of 8,800 metric tons of Kashagan crude was dispatched from the Aktau terminal en route to the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline, with the next cargo scheduled for September 20.
Supplies via the route were suspended in August of this year. In the first eight months of the year, Kazakhstan sent 0.9 million tons via the BTC.
In 2022, KMG and Azerbaijan’s SOCAR signed an agreement on the transit of Kazakh oil, while in 2024, the parties signed the Agreement on Phased Increase in the Volumes of Kazakh Oil Transit across the territory of Azerbaijan.
