French Suez Group will be engaged in water treatment in Azerbaijan’s oil and gas industry, the company told Trend.

"Regarding our collaboration with SOCAR, we are finalizing, together with our local partner NOBEL OIL, the negotiation of a Memorandum of Understanding for the creation of a Joint-Venture which will allow the local manufacturing of chemical products useful for the water treatment in the Oil and Gas Industry, in Azerbaijan of course, but also in neighboring countries," said the company.

SUEZ Group operates on five continents, on which the company harnesses all its desire for innovation to achieve an efficient and sustainable management of resources throughout the world. The company supports its customers as they change from a linear model, which over consumes resources, to a circular model, aiming to recycle and recover them for future use.
