The Shah Deniz II project is an expansion of the Shah Deniz gas field, located in the Caspian Sea near Azerbaijan. The project, which is owned by BP, aims to produce and transport natural gas from the field to Europe. It involves the construction of new platforms, pipelines, and facilities to increase production capacity. The Southern Gas Corridor is a crucial part of the project, connecting the Caspian region to Europe via the South Caucasus Pipeline, the Trans-Anatolian Pipeline (TANAP), and the Trans-Adriatic Pipeline (TAP). Shah Deniz II is significant for Europe’s energy security, enhancing diversification of natural gas suppliers and boosting regional economic development.
