(OP)
I recently heard BTC took its first consignment of Kazak crude (only a 2 days ago). This would be a significant event. Can anyone confirm this and possibly give any info if the pipe inventory was a ACG/Tengiz blend? Thanks.

LONDON -(Dow Jones)- A small volume of crude oil from the Tengiz field in Kazakhstan will be added to the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline from the second half of October, arriving in the Turkish port of Ceyhan in mid-November, a spokesman for pipeline operator BP PLC (BP) said Wednesday.
 
The move comes as 60% of the 850,000 barrel a day crude flow through the BTC has been cut following the shutdown of two platforms on the Azeri-Chirag- Gunashli field in the Caspian Sea last month after a gas leak.
