As of December 1, 2024, the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan Republic (SOCAR) commenced gas supplies to SPP, Slovakia's largest state energy supplier.
The gas supply operates under a short-term pilot agreement between SOCAR and SPP. The companies aim to develop a longer-term energy partnership.
Thanks to these gas supplies, SOCAR continues to diversify its export destinations. Slovakia has become the twelfth country to purchase Azerbaijani gas, joining Türkiye, Georgia, Italy, Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Serbia, Slovenia, Croatia, and North Macedonia.
