BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 27. The acceptance of oil from Kazakh shippers through the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) has been restored in full, Trend reports citing the Kazakh government.

During the meeting, it was noted that currently there are no restrictions on the throughput of the oil pipeline, and the acceptance of oil from Kazakh shippers has been restored in full. All remote mooring devices are in operation.
