Iran and Armenia are carrying out negotiations to construct storage
facilities and a distribution center for oil products near Yerevan.
Different projects were considered in Armenia including the
construction of an oil refinery. But Armenia's consumption is 12 000
barrels of oil products daily and this is deemed to be too small an
amount to justify the construction of an oil refinery. Thereafter the
building of a huge storage facility near Yerevan was considered. The
construction of this facility would mean simultaneous construction of
appropriate infrastructure, railway tracks and roads. The possibility
of transporting oil products from this storage facility into European
countries via Georgia has also been mentioned.
