Azerbaijan and BP have discussed new directions for strategic cooperation, focusing on global business operations and regional energy initiatives.
The Operative Information Center-OMM reports that the meeting was announced by Azerbaijan's Economy Minister Mikayıl Cabbarov on his official account on the X social media platform.
"Together with Rovshan Najaf, President of the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR), we met with the new CEO of BP, Meg O'Neill. We shared our views on the company's global business operations, the long-term efficient cooperation with Azerbaijan, and the energy projects implemented in the region. We discussed new directions for collaboration between our country and BP. We wish Meg O'Neill success in her new role," the minister stated.
BP has been a primary strategic partner in Azerbaijan's energy sector for over three decades, playing a leading role in major projects such as the Azeri-Chirag-Gunashli (ACG) oil field development and the Shah Deniz gas project. In recent years, the partnership has evolved to include a significant focus on the energy transition, with both parties exploring renewable energy opportunities and decarbonization efforts to support Azerbaijan's goal of reducing carbon emissions and developing a sustainable green energy corridor.
