Azerbaijan can develop its gas supplies to Europe, joining with the Trans-North African pipeline through the Algerian ports, the Azerbaijani Ambassador to Algeria, Mahir Aliyev, reported.
He recalled that the North African country has two large ports, which are engaged in the transportation of liquefied and natural gas, and Azerbaijan can take advantage of them.
The diplomat noted that the energy sector is one of the promising areas of cooperation between the two countries. "Algeria, as well as Azerbaijan, is rich in energy resources. In terms of volume of oil and gas, Algeria takes 13th-14th place in the world. The country produces and exports about 2.5 million barrels of oil daily,’’ Trend quotes him as saying.
