President's Statement on Caspian Pipeline Consortium
Statement by the President



I congratulate Russia, Kazakhstan, and Oman, and their consortium partners, 
for the commissioning of the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC).  U.S. firms, 
notably ChevronTexaco and ExxonMobil, have played leading roles in this 
project.  These facilities represent the culmination of years of effort.  
They are examples to the world that the United States, Russia, and 
Kazakhstan are cooperating to build prosperity and stability in this part of 
the world.

The CPC highlights the important progress by countries in the Caspian region 
in building a transparent and stable environment for international trade and 
investment.  The CPC project also advances my Administrations National 
Energy Policy by developing a network of multiple Caspian pipelines that 
also includes the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan, Baku-Supsa, and Baku-Novorossiysk oil 
pipelines and the Baku-Tbilisi-Erzurum gas pipeline.  These projects will 
help diversify U.S. energy supply and enhance our energy security, while 
supporting global economic growth.
