India and Turkey on Thursday signed a cooperation agreement for bilateral oil exploration, refining and pipeline projects and in the third country, Indo- Asian News Service reported. The agreement was signed in New Delhi between visiting Turkish Energy Minister Mehmep Hilmi Guller and Indian Petroleum Minister Mani Shankar Aiyar. The India-Turkey trade is likely to rise to 2 billion US dollars by 2008 if cooperation is improved, said Guller, who is here to attend the second Asian Energy Roundtable on Friday. The bilateral trade topped 1 billion US dollars in 2004. Oil companies from the two countries have started cooperation such as jointly developing two exploration blocks in Libya, said Aiyar.
