They also discussed cooperation on Nabucco project and regional and international is- sues. On 28.01.2010 President Aliyev attended the World Economic Forum`s session entitled “Global Energy Outlook”. The World Economic Forum Annual Meeting has engaged leaders from all walks of life to shape the global agen- da at the start of the year for the last four decades. In response to new priorities, the organizing theme for this year`s Annual Meeting is a call to action, “Improve the State of the World: Rethink, Redesign, Rebuild”. The meeting brings together nearly 2,500 participants, including government represent- atives of the world’s top 25 economies and fast-growing small countries, including heads of state and government, ministers of finance and economy, and ministers of foreign affairs as well as governors and mayors of the world’s top regions and cities. The “Global Energy Outlook” session was opened by Daniel Yergin, Chairman of Cambridge Energy Research Associates. Moderator: I would like to begin with President Ilham Aliyev. The term energy security, what does it mean from the viewpoint of Azerbaijan and as you look at the global energy system? President Ilham Aliyev: First of all I would like to say that most important for us from the point of energy security is diversification of supply routes. We managed to achieve that, and today we have a diversified pipeline sys- tem which can transport our natural resources in various directions. At the same time it is – ОФИЦИАЛЬНАЯ ХРОНИКА very important to provide the balance of in- terest between producers, transiters and consumers, so that we have sustainable and long-term energy cooperation. If this balance of interest is disrupted it may create certain problems. Another issue which is important for us is a fair market price for our natural resources, particularly for gas, and full commitment by all the parties to the signed contracts. I think these elements in the package can provide much more confidence for producers and for consumers with respect to energy security. Moderator: Mr. President, for the first decade or so of Azerbaijan`s existence as an independent nation the focus was on oil. Spotlight turning certainly to natural gas, looking out five or ten years from now, what would you see in terms of Azerbaijan`s role in a global gas market and what are the obstacles to get in there? President Ilham Aliyev: I think that, definitely, the role of Azerbaijan in a global gas market will grow. OFFICIAL CHRONICLE OFFICIAL Because discovery of huge gas reserves will allow Azerbaijan to transform to one of the major gas – exporters. As you know, the minimum proven gas reserves in Azerbaijan are more than two trillion cubic meters. So, that will be enough for us and for our export capacity for decades. And most im- KA İ portant is now to provide that there is a reliable and long-term market for our gas. I mentioned that we have already a diversified gas supply system. But that system can transport only today`s level of production. What we are planning to do is to increase gas production two or three times, maybe more. To do that, we need much bigger capacity of pipeline infrastructure. And of course in order to XRON invest major investments in new developments and pipeline infrastructure we need to have clear un- İ derstanding who are our consumers,
