BAKU, Azerbaijan, August 13. Agip Caspian Sea, a subsidiary of the Italian Eni in Kazakhstan, has supplied 20,000 tons of oil to Germany via Druzhba pipeline, a source at the Ministry of Energy of Kazakhstan told Trend.
"In June, the Italian Agip carried out a test supply of 20,000 tons of oil via the Atyrau-Samara main oil pipeline and further to the Druzhba system," the source said.
As the Ministry noted, further transportation of Kazakh oil to Germany via the Druzhba pipeline will depend on the economic attractiveness of supplies in this direction.
From January through April 2024, Transneft PJSC transported 420,000 tons of Kazakh oil through its trunk oil pipeline system to the Adamova Zastava oil delivery point for export to Germany. This value is 330,000 tons, or more than four times more than in the same period last year.
At the same time, KazTransOil plans to transport 993,000 tons of Kazakh oil to Germany in total in 2024.
Russian and Kazakh authorities inked a relevant agreement on June 7, 2002, and it governs the current transit.
