Ageing Azerbaijan Oil-Fields Supply Europe With Crude Oil

BAKU, AZERBAIJAN - OCTOBER 26: (FILE PHOTO) Ageing infrastructure, leaking crude oil and debris from decades of extraction, litter an oil field, October 26, 2006 in Baku, Azerbaijan. Oil-rich Azerbaijan gained independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, and its wealth of oil has been responsible for both its development and success, as well as its status as one of the most polluted environments in the world. Azerbaijan have joined the Ukraine in the construction of the Odessa - Brody pipeline, to provide Europe with 6-7 million tones of oil each year and will reduce dependence on giant Russian energy firm, Gazprom.
