According to the forecasted data in 2011, Azerbaijan will supply about 90 percent of gas to Georgia of the country's total consumption, the Georgian Oil and Gas Corporation told Trend.
According to the preliminary estimates, Azerbaijan will deliver about 1.6 billion cubic meters to Georgia in 2011.
According to the forecasted data, SOCAR will deliver about 36 percent of gas of total consumption in Georgia in 2011.
According to the forecasts, SOCAR must provide Georgia with about 700 million cubic meters of gas in 2011.
Georgia intends to increase purchase of Azerbaijani gas by 30 percent from 2012, Georgian Oil and Gas Corporation General Director Zurab Janjgava earlier said.
