According to SOFAZ, from 2001 until September 1, 2021, its revenues from ACG exceeded $152.8 billion.

Besides, revenues from the sale of condensate produced at the Shah Deniz field as of early August 2021 amounted to $57.13 million.

SOFAZ was established in 1999 with assets of $271 million.

The main goals of the State Oil Fund include the accumulation of resources and placement of assets abroad in order to minimize the negative effect on the economy, promotion of resource accumulation for future generations, and support of current social and economic processes in Azerbaijan.
