Kazakhstan has launched a new supply route for JET A1 aviation fuel from Europe via Georgia and the Middle Corridor, according to Inbusiness.kz. The route aims to diversify fuel sources and reduce dependence on Russian supplies.
New Supply Route
The route transports European JET A1 kerosene via Georgia and the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route (Middle Corridor), as reported by Inbusiness.kz. LSM.kz confirmed that European aviation fuel is again flowing into Kazakhstan. The first deliveries have already arrived, marking a shift from traditional Russian supply lines.
Strategic Diversification
The move reduces Kazakhstan's reliance on Russian fuel, which previously dominated the market. The Middle Corridor, bypassing Russia, offers a shorter and more secure path from Europe to Central Asia. Industry analysts cited by LSM.kz note that this could stabilize prices and ensure supply security.
