The Caspian and the Black Sea: Interregional Transport Cooperation to be Discussed in Batumi
On May 14–15, 2026, the city of Batumi, Georgia, will become the hub for interregional transport and logistics issues. The international conference "Argus Black Sea and Caspian Key Terminals and Logistics" will bring together leading business figures from the Black Sea, Caspian Sea, and Central Asian regions.
More than 170 representatives from around the world are expected to attend, including cargo owners, exporters, heads of major transport companies, and logistics operators. Companies from Turkmenistan operating in freight forwarding, hydrocarbon exports, and logistics services have also been officially invited to this prestigious event.
During the forum, extensive discussions will take place across three key areas:
- Dry Cargo Transportation: Logistics for fertilizers, sulfur, and agricultural products.
- Energy Resources: Export of oil and petroleum products via the Black Sea route.
- Container Shipping: Modernization of terminal infrastructure and multimodal services.
A special highlight of the conference is the organization of technical site visits to Georgia's major logistics facilities. Participants will visit the "Poti TransTerminal" container complex, the multimodal mineral fertilizer terminal, and the "Petrocas Energy Group" oil terminal.
The presence of global giants such as Chevron, Maersk Georgia, SOCAR, KazAzot, and Uzkimyoimpeks among the confirmed participants will pave the way for Turkmen specialists to establish new international partnerships.
Registration is ongoing on the official website of "Argus Media."
