Oil transportation slows down through BTC

In the first quarter of 2012, the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline pumped less oil than in the same period last year. In 2011, more than 52 million tons were pumped through BTC, in 2012 – more than 49 million tons. Altogether, since it started functioning, the BCT has transported more than 215 million tons of oil.
