Country Analysis Brief
  • Azerbaijan is emerging as an important exporter of oil and natural gas and as a transport corridor between Europe and Central Asia. Its strategic location bordering the Caspian Sea has attracted significant international interest in developing its oil and natural gas reserves
  • Oil production in Azerbaijan more than quadrupled between 1997 and 2008 to 875,000 bbl/d and is expected to increase further as new wells come online
  • With the startup of the Shah Deniz natural gas and condensate field in 2007, Azerbaijan went from being a net natural gas importer to a net exporter, shipping increasing amounts of natural gas via Turkey to Europe
