The oil, gas and mining services department bank transactions specialist Bakhtiyar Karimov and consultant Joseph Bank Vaytsman will visit Baku as part of the mission.
The main purpose of the mission's visit will be discussion and possible signing of the administrative agreement on the third phase GGFR with SOCAR (State Oil Company of Azerbaijan) for three years, WB representation said.
The discussions are planned to be held with the leadership of SOCAR and refineries to design and measure gas emissions within the mission, the representation of the bank said.
