Southern Gas Corridor to link Azerbaijan with European countries - Trend.Az:



"The Southern Gas Corridor is forging new links between Azerbaijan and the countries that will benefit from the energy supplies stretching into the heart of Europe, BP head Robert Dudley said at the opening of the 21st International Caspian Oil and Gas Exhibition in Baku on June 3.



He stressed that at the end of last year a major step was taken to approve the stage two development of the Shah Deniz field.



"This is one of the most complex challenges ever undertaken in the global oil and gas industry," Dudley said. "It represents the largest foreign direct investments made in Azerbaijan."



"As the construction activity ramp up it will create over 10,000 jobs in Azerbaijan and tens of thousands jobs in the countries along the Southern Gas Corridor," he said."
