Özet
Comprising 65% to 70% of the world's oil reserves, the Gulf States (Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, UAE and Qatar) are a key region in solutions to energy supply matters. The Gulf States producers accounted for 24.7 % of the world oil supply at the moment, and this share of supply will grow to 51,8 % in 2030. However, the Gulf region has a multitude of oil supply problems closely interlinked to each other, originating wars, conflicts and terrorist attacks. Therefore, alternative transport routes and diversification of the supply are required. These are possible with two new pipeline systems connected with each other and operative for both northward and southward directions. One of them should be construction of Gulf-Ceyhan Pipelines for transporting the Gulf oil to the Mediterranean. Other should be construction of by-pass pipelines to the Strait of Hormuz for transporting the Gulf oil to Indian Ocean.
