The State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR) is restructuring its subsidiary, SOCAR Midstream Operations (SMO).
According to Report, which cites the Vergilər newspaper of the State Tax Service, a new entity, SOCAR Midstream Gas Operations (SMGO), is being spun off from SMO.

The newly formed company, SMGO, has not yet been officially registered.
