The BP PLC (BP)-led Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline exported 22.1 million
metric tons of Azeri and Kazakh oil in the first seven months of 2009,
up 5.7% from the same period last year, Azerbaijan's state oil company
Socar said Monday.
The majority of oil shipped through the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan
pipeline comes from Azerbaijan's Azeri-Chirag-Guneshli offshore field
in the Caspian Sea.
One million tons of oil from Kazakhstan's Tengiz field was
shipped through the pipeline in the seven month period, Socar said.
