Background

The Hajigabul-Gazakh-Saguramo Main Gas Pipeline was constructed in 1978 and operational until 1988. After the collapse of the USSR, this pipeline remained unused for many years. After repairs and restoration, it was put into operation again in 2006. The Azeri section of the pipeline is known as the Gazimammad-Gazakh pipeline.

With the capacity of 8.7 bcm/year, the pipeline currently transports 1.3 bcm/year from Azerbaijan to Georgia.

Gazakh-Saguramo (Kazakhi-Saguramo) gas pipeline is an extension to North Caucasus-South Caucasus Gas Pipeline from Saguramo to the Georgian-Azeri and Georgian-Armenian border. Georgia accommodates its ≈90-km section and an 11.5-km branch bound to Armenia. The gas pipeline is used to transit Russian gas to Armenia. Tsiteli Khidi and Khrami Metering units are connected to this pipeline in order to measure volumes of gas transported to the West and Armenian directions accordingly. In Saguramo, the pipeline joins Vladikavkaz-Tbilisi Pipeline, through which the Russian gas is received. Kazakhi-Saguramo pipeline at the 66.0 km point is linked to Karadaghi-Tbilisi pipeline’s 484 km point (near Rustavi).
