LUKoil considers sharing in Baku-Ceyhan

MOSCOW - Russia's oil giant is considering the possibility of participating
in the Baku-Ceyhan project, LUKoil's vice president Dzhevan Cheloyants
announced at a press conference today.

He noted that British Petroleum, the main participant of the project,
introduced an improved draft agreement on the pipeline construction to
LUKoil.

Cheloyants noted that this draft is more favorable for LUKoil than the
previous one. Officials of the Russian oil company will make their final
decision after they examine the new draft. /RosBusinessConsulting/

First oil loaded from Kazakh-Russia pipeline

MOSCOW - The first shipment of crude from a giant Kazakh oilfield was
loaded on a tanker in the Russian Black Sea on Monday via a new $2.5
billion pipeline, operator the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) said.

The pipeline is the first to be completed since the fall of the Soviet Union to
ship oil to Western markets from the Caspian Sea, where oil reserves are
estimated to be similar to those of the North Sea.

CPC is led by U.S. oil major Chevron. It also unites the governments of
Russia, Kazakhstan and Oman with oil firms LukArco, Rosneft-Shell
Caspian Ventures and Kazakhstan Pipeline Ventures LLC Mobil Caspian
Pipeline Company.

"I think that life has begun," Chevron vice president Richard Matzke told
reporters at a news conference to greet the first shipment.

CPC said it had done a trial tanker loading at Novorossiisk oil port on
October 13 after months of delay and was now ready to start working
properly. /Reuters/
