Kazakhstan’s Onisgroup plans to start exporting oil products to Azerbaijan by the end of summer 2018, Director General of Onisgroup Chingis Nugumarov told Trend.
"Presently, trading companies of Onisgroup process nearly 15,000 tons of oil per year, producing petroleum products for Kazakhstan’s domestic market. However, in the coming months we plan to start export of oil products to Azerbaijan, Georgia and Kyrgyzstan," Nugumarov said.
He added that Onisgroup also considers Iran, China and Vietnam as alternative routes for trading and transshipping oil and oil products of Kazakhstan.
The priority of commercial activity of Onisgroup is the export of hydrocarbons produced at its own production facilities.
