The Nabucco project has no concept, said Ilham Shaban, head of the Center of Oil Studies, according to Novosti-Azerbaijan.

"The Nabucco project has no concept. It is still unclear who will sell and who will purchase gas discussed for about five years", said he during the Baku-Moscow-Tbilisi video-bridge on the topic: "Nabucco gas project: pluses and minuses for Russia, Georgia and Azerbaijan" Tuesday.
The expert noted that the majority of member-states of the said project consume little gas, while their striving is explained by an intention to gain dividends as gas transiting states.
"By the way, a part of the project members does not conceal their intention to implement the South Caucasus project. It proves that this project is a political one", noted he.
