SOCAR与乌兹别克石油公司成立合资企业

据Neftegaz.RU.网站11月22日塔什干报道，乌兹别克斯坦国家石油天然气公司在其网站上宣布，将于阿塞拜疆国家石油公司(SOCAR)成立一家合资企业，在欧洲和其他国家开展贸易业务。

“11月20日，在乌兹别克斯坦举行的SOCAR、SOCAR贸易和ChemTrade会议上讨论了这个问题。双方讨论了在建立合资企业以开展贸易业务方面有希望的合作领域。”报告说。

这次会议是在乌兹别克斯坦国家石油天然气公司董事会主席巴霍迪尔·西迪科夫访问巴库之后，于2019年10月达成的协议的一部分。会议之后，确定了建立新的合资企业的进一步步骤。

该合资企业将成为乌兹别克国家石油天然气公司的一个新方向，这将使其能够开拓欧洲以及与乌兹别克斯坦没有直接运输通道的其他国家的出口市场。

在由乌兹别克斯坦第一副能源部长朱拉贝克·米尔扎马赫穆多夫和乌兹别克斯坦国家石油天然气公司董事会主席组成的代表团访问巴库期间，巴霍迪尔·西迪科夫与索卡尔总统罗夫纳格·阿卜杜拉耶夫举行了谈判。双方讨论了通过SOCAR贸易增加乌兹别克斯坦天然气和化工产品的石油和出口潜力的可能性。

SOCAR目前正在与乌兹别克斯坦国家石油天然气公司在2019年5月与英国石油勘探公司就乌兹别克斯坦三个投资区块的地质勘探签署协议的框架内进行合作。该文件规定在咸海的乌兹别克部分、Ustyurt地区的Samsk Ko***ulak和Bayterek投资区块进行勘探。

乌兹别克斯坦石油天然气公司与SOCAR还签署了一项协议，将利用阿塞拜疆公司的先进技术，增加4个油田的油气产量。

2016年，SOCAR和乌兹别克国家石油天然气公司签署了一份备忘录，规定在油气田勘探和开发领域以及能源部门发展的其他潜在领域开展合作。

此外，2017年6月，SOCAR和乌兹别克斯坦国家石油天然气公司就在阿塞拜疆和乌兹别克斯坦以及第三国的联合油气运营达成协议。
