Over the last century and a half, the world has taken a steady interest in Azerbaijan’s energy resources.  Nowadays, the country’s resources are drawing attention from as far afield as Europe, America and Asia.  Over this time, the planet has undergone many changes and more than a billion tons of crude from Azerbaijan has secured the economic development of many countries.  Nevertheless, the Caspian’s reserves are still full and Azerbaijan’s renown as an oil and gas supplier continues to grow.

Over the next 15 years, the magnetic pull of Azerbaijan’s energy infrastructure has been evident at the largest exhibition in the Caspian region – the Caspian Oil & Gas, Refining and Petrochemicals exhibition.  The 2008 opening ceremony attracted large numbers of high-ranking guests, among them the President of Azerbaijan H.E. Ilham Aliyev.

"The first exhibition was held in 1994 to tell the world more about Azerbaijan. I can say that the exhibition has played a very important role in the development of the oil and gas sector in Azerbaijan and attraction of large-scaled investment," President Ilham Aliyev said.
