Caspian -Caucasus Petrol, Turkish Straits- Environmental Threat
Our country has few academic studies focused on the Caspian -Caucasus crude oil route, marine transportation in Turkish Straits and environmental threats. However, increasing crude oil transportation from the Caspian Basin is hazardous in terms of health, wealth and environment in the Turkish Straits.
This book examines the politics of oil and environmental risks in a holistic fashion including pipelines and oil tankers. Moreover, politics on carrying the Caspian oil outside of the basin, pipelines and oil transportation, the Baku-Ceyhan oil pipeline, Caspian Sea and its status, transportation regime from Turkish Straits, international policies of Straits, oil pollution, and environmental risks are examined.
This book was prepared by Dr. Deniz Kutluk as a reference book for academics, policymakers and everyone else interested in the topic.
