The agreement formalizes operating conditions for the Western Route Export Pipeline (Baku-Supsa), securing a key export route for Azerbaijani crude oil to global markets via the Black Sea. This reduces transit risk and supports stable oil flows from the Caspian region, benefiting SOCAR's revenue and Georgia's transit fees. The mechanism is supply-chain stability for crude oil exports, with no immediate price or scarcity signal.
