The halt in Azerbaijani natural gas supplies to Europe has been extended until January 19, according to the Azerbaijan Gas Supply Company (the company created for the sale of gas from the “Shah Deniz” field, operated by SOCAR).

BP-Azerbaijan, the technical operator of the “Shah Deniz” field development, has halted operations on the Alpha platform due to a technical malfunction on the underwater pipeline designed to transport condensate.

Gas supplies from Azerbaijan to Serbia will not be suspended, Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić  announced on his social media page X. "Our brothers and friends from Azerbaijan have just informed me that, despite the objective problems caused by force majeure circumstances, gas supplies to Serbia will not be suspended. A huge thank you to Azerbaijan and President Ilham Aliyev, whom I look forward to welcoming soon in Belgrade," he wrote.

Azerbaijan has surpassed all countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) and the Caspian region in the 2024 Energy Transition Index (ETI), compiled by the World Economic Forum (WEF).
