Azerbaijan has used hydrocarbon revenues to modernise transport corridors, ports and energy infrastructure, positioning itself along the Middle Corridor linking Europe and Asia. Infrastructure investment supports export capacity and ambitions to diversify into logistics, manufacturing and renewables.
