President of Azerbaijan's state oil firm, SOCAR, has praised the country's “increasing” gas potential, saying it is already supplying gas to other countries.
Rovnag Abdullayev spoke to AN annual Caspian oil and gas exhibition and conference. Abdullayev praised the Shahdeniz gas project, saying it helped the country turn from an importer to exporter of gas.

“The field's gas reserves are estimated at 1.2 trillion cubic meters.” “Currently the Shahdeniz field produces a daily average of 21 million cubic meters of gas,” said the SOCAR chief.
