Azerbaijan’s state oil company SOCAR’s production is‌ expected to grow by 0.5 percent per year from 2023 to‍ 2025,⁣ according to the forecasts of ‍international rating agency​ Fitch Ratings.

In 2023, SOCAR’s oil and gas production remained generally stable at 286 ‍thousand barrels‌ of oil equivalent⁢ per day.

“This ⁤follows an 8 ​percent decline in Azerbaijan’s oil production and a 3 percent increase ​in ⁢gas production. ⁤Azerbaijan’s oil production has historically declined, and this trend is not expected to change‍ significantly. Fitch assumes‌ that SOCAR’s production will grow by 0.5 percent per year​ in ⁣the forecast period, supported by higher natural gas production.

SOCAR’s operations encompass exploration, production, processing, and⁤ transportation ​of⁣ oil, gas, and gas condensate, as well as the sale of oil and petrochemical products domestically‍ and internationally. The company also supplies ⁤natural gas to industrial enterprises and the population in Azerbaijan⁣ and Europe.

SOCAR maintains operations in ​various ‍countries, ⁣including Turkey, Georgia, Romania, Switzerland, Germany, and ‌Ukraine, with its trading activities primarily‍ concentrated in Switzerland,⁢ Singapore, and Nigeria.
