    Re: Energy in Azerbaijan

    Only the Saudis can extract it at round $20 per barrel due to volume vs initial investments. My guesstimate the azeri’s will be around $30 and $45 for the offshore IF they are very efficient. Also, let us not forget the pipeline transit fees for two countries. By the time it is sold in turkey their cost it will be around $40+

    All the overcost of technical nature, maintenance...... failures are 100 % for the turks.
    And those overcosts doubled in a decade, compared to the date the contract was signed....
    Yes, Ali baba had 40 thieves, but BP has 40 + lawyers and they all got knives.
    Good news thanks

    --- offshore oil/gas extraction is cheaper than onshore extraction.
    Does not matter weather old or new, that's 180 degrees backward.
    Let's see, mmm, digging a hole at the bottom of a lake is easier than digging a hole on dry ground .
    The cost of drilling a hole on dry ground in yesteryears wages is more expensive than today's hyper inflated prices.
    I could go on but the only absurd things I like are jokes.
    Classic turc .

    My guess is somebody's brother inlaw might be a qualification. But maybe I'm wrong. However, somebody somewhere has got to know what they are doing, or something bad could happen, like an explosion or oil spill, or people getting killed.
    Whatever the baboons costs is, $20 per barrel is calamitous. Remember who they are selling to and who they are dealing with ... BP is one of them. If you hand a penny to BP and then it's handed back to you, you'll notice it's thinner. The reason is BP will squeeze that penny so hard.
    The monkey in the above article is talking out is ...
    The baboons are now taxing capital outflows by 20%. I wonder if they're targeting BP specifically. To use your analogy, that penny is going to be squeezed even harder. Even SOCAR repurchased $500mln of their outstanding bonds back, they know they're going to need to be able to borrow later when they're on the verge of tanking.

    All this oil talk raises the question of whether or not these fools are crazy enough to nationalize the ACG and Shah Deniz fields.

    “We sure that the oil price will rise again”, SOCAR Vice President for Investments and Marketing Elshad Nasirov said in his interview to Swiss SRF channel.
    “The sharpest increase in oil price was recorded when the Bolsheviks occupied Baku in 1920 because ¼ of world oil were produced in Baku. We sure that the oil price will rise again”, Nasirov said.
    Answering the question “Are you concerned over oil price decline?”, the Vice-President said: “Absolutely no!”.
    “The oil price depends on various factors and this makes difficult to predict the price dynamics. Of course, economic issues play certain role, but there are also political factors which regulate the inter-state relations. Oil price may fall to $20, but this will not be long-term, because investment in oil sector will decrease. Today, a number of oil producing countries can produce the oil with lower initial cost. However, the supply will fall below demand”, Nasirov said.
    He added that the initial cost of oil production in Azerbaijan is below $25: “As you know, we have offshore and onshore extraction of oil. Compared to oil extraction from old onshore fields, the oil extraction from new offshore fields is more cost-effective. So, the oil production in Azerbaijan costs on average $20”.

    So, confession. It costs anywhere between $20-$25 for them to pump oil. This means that they're almost at the point where they're pumping oil for free. Thought this day wouldn't come until 2020 but here it is.
