SOCAR Georgia Petroleum stated that the main limitation for the development of Georgia's transport and logistics sector remains the insufficient capacity of railway infrastructure and the lack of facilities for storing petroleum products. This was announced by Mirza Shavgulidze, head of the company's commercial department, at an oil forum in Baku.
According to him, the country's strategic location between the Caspian and Black Seas opens up significant opportunities for the transit of oil and petroleum products. However, infrastructural limitations, primarily the deficit of railway wagons, which has effectively become the main "bottleneck" of the system, prevent the realization of this potential.
The company believes that by solving these problems, Georgia will be able to significantly increase transportation volumes and strengthen its role as a regional logistics hub. Currently, the country is considered a dynamically developing market with the potential to expand transit flows and strengthen its position in supply chains between regions.
