Figure 3.3: Production and consumption of oil (left) and natural gas (right) by the Caspian littoral states for 2006–2016
While the county’s crude oil exports declined from 39 million tons in 2011 to 35 million tons in 2016 (10.4 per cent decrease), gas exports in- creased from 6.8 billion m 3 to 8 billion m 3 during the same period (18 per cent increase) (Azerbai- jan 2018). Although the economy in Azerbaijan suffered from the decline in oil and gas prices in global
commodity markets, the oil and gas sector is still the largest contributor to the state budget. Ac- cording to the State Statistical Committee, the sector’s contribution to GDP is about 40 per cent. Total oil and gas production varies in Azerbaijan, with oil production ranging from 50.4 million tons in 2009 to 41.1 million tons in 2016 and gas production from 16.8 billion m 3 in 2007 to 29.3 billion m 3 in 2016 (Azerbaijan 2018).
