ARTSAKHPRESS: Bedros Terzian , Chairman of the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund French affiliate, director of Petrostrategies consulting company and renowned specialist in the oil sector said in an interview with “Artsakhpress”.
“Last year Azerbaijan for its own needs bought gas from Turkmenistan. If in 2019 or 2020 Azerbaijan sends gas to Europe with the pipeline that is being constructed, it will take many years to be able to get back the investments. The gas volumes that Azerbaijan has are not large.
6 billion cubic metres to be sold to Turkey. 10 billion cubic- to Europe, which is nothing for Europe in political sense and is not an alternative.
On the other hand the Azerbaijanis have to bring the gas to the borders of Italy, because the signed contracts impose very strict conditions and they are far from the gas contracts’ logic. Therefore, the Azerbaijani gas is not a big factor, especially since it is so expensive project in terms of the investment that the profits will be much smaller,” added Terzian.
