Kazakhstan intends to develop oil export routes to China and Iran, the Minister of Energy of the Republic Bolat Akchulakov said.
"The focus will be on the development of the Trans-Caspian International transport route towards the ports of Azerbaijan, Georgia and Turkey, as well as export destinations to China and Iran," Akchulakov said at a government meeting on Wednesday. He specified that as part of the diversification of export directions, a draft roadmap for the development of alternative oil export routes has been developed.
Today, Kazakhstan pumps almost 80% of its oil for export through the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) to the Russian port in the Black Sea.
