CNN airs report on Azerbaijan`s water pipeline
Baku, March 30 (AZERTAC). CNN WorldView, a global evening newscast, aired a report on Oguz-Gabala-Baku water pipeline.
The Oguz-Gabala-Baku pipeline commissioned last year allows Baku receiving water from Caucasus mountains.
Journalist Sevinj Osmangyzy prepared a report travelling across regions the pipeline runs through. Chief engineer of Oguz-Gabala-Baku pipeline Mammadrasul Ilyasov said the pipeline doesn`t need in any pump. The initiative to construct Oguz-Gabala-Baku pipeline has been first put forward in 1970. But the project has been frozen because of financial problems. Thanks to Azerbaijan`s oil revenues, the project has been implemented and funded by the State Oil Fund. Many people say Oguz-Gabala-Baku water pipeline is the most effective project in Azerbaijan after the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline.
The report will be telecast five times during four days.
