BP Transfers Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan Pipeline Operations to SOCAR

British energy company BP has transferred the operation of the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan (BTC) crude oil pipeline to SOCAR Midstream Operations (SMO), a subsidiary of the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR). This transfer is part of BP's strategic asset management decisions in the region. The BTC pipeline plays a critical role in transporting oil from the Caspian Sea to world markets via Turkey. BP had operated the pipeline for many years. The transfer aligns with SOCAR's goal of increasing its control over energy infrastructure. With this asset, SOCAR Midstream Operations will gain a more effective position in regional energy transportation. BP, in turn, plans to restructure its portfolio and focus on other projects. This is not investment advice.
