FOREWORD - 3 FOREWORD In 1998, the International Energy Agency published Caspian Oil and Gas, highlighting the Caspian Sea’s potential as a main energy source for both Europe and Asia. We follow that study now with this Black Sea Energy Study, for the key to moving Caspian oil and gas to market in Europe is the politics and economics of the complex Black Sea region. World oil demand is expected to continue to grow, with prosperity and the relentless spread of motor and air transport. The Caspian Sea region is one of the great potential reserves of petroleum – not nearly so vast as the Middle East’s pool, but comparable to North Sea reserves. How the riparian states resolve the problem of energy through and along the coast of the Black Sea will be of high importance to Europe and the world over the next two decades. This study describes the extreme variety of conditions in the states involved – from rapidly- growing and gas-hungry Turkey to oil-rich Azerbaijan. Bulgaria and Romania, together with three republics of the Former Soviet Union, are still undergoing the difficult transition from Communism to a market economy. All need foreign investment to support the expensive energy projects before them. Several have yet to create the stable and predictable investment climate needed to attract such investment. In the current volume, the IEA seeks to render a service to the countries of the region as well as to future investors and clients. Facing up to the political, economic and geographic problems of the region, we offer some proposals on how they may be met. Among the key issues dealt with is, of course, that of alternative transit routes that will safely deliver oil and gas while avoiding congestion in the Turkish Straits. Robert Priddle Executive Director ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS - 5 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The IEA wishes to acknowledge the very helpful co-operation of the Energy Charter Secretariat, the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency, and Hagler-Bailly Services Inc. Thanks are due to the following experts for their valuable comments: Emmanuel Bergasse of the Tacis Energy Efficiency Centre in Tbilisi; Slavtcho Neykov at the Bulgarian State Commission for Energy Regulation; Doina Caloianu and Lulin Radulov of the Black Sea Regional Energy Centre. Special thanks is given to the following IEA staff: Pierre-Marie Cussaguet and John Paffenbarger, country desk officers respectively for Turkey and Greece, Yukimi Shimura and Sohbet Karbuz for preparing the statistical data, Bertrand Sadin for the preparation of the maps, and Benjamin Parameswaran for the preparatory work. INTRODUCTION - 7 INTRODUCTION The IEA, in co-operation with the Energy Charter Secretariat, conducted a study of the energy sectors and policies of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Georgia and Romania in late 1998 and early 1999. The resulting publication, Black Sea Energy Survey, is an independent review of the major issues facing energy developments in these countries and energy transport in the Black Sea. To round off the regional picture, brief overviews of the IEA Members Greece and Turkey have been added, drawing on the IEA’s Energy Policy reviews of these countries. Ukraine and Russia, which have been studied in detail in previous IEA surveys, are not covered by specific chapters in this study. In preparing this report, missions were undertaken in late 1998 to Armenia, Bulgaria, Georgia and Romania to meet with key energy figures in government and industry, both local and foreign, as well as representatives of multilateral institutions active in the region. The study team was composed of experts from the IEA Secretariat and from the Energy Charter Secretariat.
