Iraq may join the agreement signed between Azerbaijan and Turkey on the construction of a new pipeline, the adviser of the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources of Turkey, Chimen Salahuddin, told a conference on oil and gas in Iraq, Trend reports.
Salahuddin said that the world's growing demand for energy and the strategic position of Turkey play an important role in economic and energy security in the region.
Baku and Ankara intend to build a new pipeline in Turkey for most of the exports of 50 billion cubic meters of gas that Azerbaijan intends to produce by 2025.
Participants in this project intend to complete the resolution of all issues on the future gas pipeline in 2012 and commission the pipeline by the end of 2017.
