Background

The Neka Jask Pipeline was a proposed oil pipeline in Iran. If constructed, it would have transported crude oil originating from Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan and Russia through the port of Neka on the Caspian Sea to Jask, Iran on the Gulf of Oman. The planned capacity of the 1,515 km (941 mi) pipeline was 1 million barrels per day of crude oil. It was expected to cost US$2 billion.[5]

The pipeline was part of a development plan in the region, which included the construction of a terminal, two refineries, a petrochemical complex and oil storage units with a total capacity of 10 million barrels in the first phase, and 30 million barrels in the second. The terminal could have eased the load of tanker traffic at Kharg Oil Terminal off the Persian Gulf coast that is responsible for more than 90% of Iranian oil exports. The terminal and pipeline were expected to be completed by 2021.[6]

There have been no development updates since 2017, and the project is presumed to be cancelled as of 2021.
