Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline can easily be blown up, according to Ilham Shaban, head of Baku-based Center for Oil Research.

“Terrorists who blow up police stations, skyscrapers and aircraft carriers can easily blast a pipeline,” SalamNews quoted him as saying.

Turkish Energy Minister Taner Yildiz said Tuesday that Turkey has stepped up measures for oil pipelines security in the wake of recent PKK attacks.
