BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 10. New
laboratories in Azerbaijan will participate in studies within the
framework of the Euro-Asian Cooperation of National Metrological
Institutions (COOMET), COOMET President Lazizbek Saidoripov told
media on the sidelines of the opening ceremony of seven new
laboratories of the Azerbaijan Institute of Metrology, Trend reports.
“Today we are witnessing a unique event—the opening of new
laboratories of the Azerbaijan Institute of Metrology. These
laboratories serve not only the development of industry in
Azerbaijan, but also science, technology, and the economy.
The Azerbaijan Institute of Metrology plays a very important
role in COOMET, participating in all projects. And yesterday we
held a meeting of the COOMET committee and discussed cooperation
issues between the participating countries. Azerbaijan, Türkiye,
and Uzbekistan are promoting new initiatives within COOMET,” he
Saidoripov believes that this provides an opportunity to receive
international recognition of the measurements carried out at this
“In this way, we help both the economy and the development of
technology. If an institute receives international recognition, it
enters international markets without duplicating some processes and
procedures. Close cooperation is underway in the development of
employee potential and the introduction of new technologies, such
as quantum metrology and information transformation.
In this area, we also discussed key points today, such as
knowledge transfer, mirror internships, and testing new standards.
Today, these seven new standards, which we solemnly opened, will
participate in studies within the COOMET framework, thereby
confirming equivalence at the international level and conducting
interlaboratory studies with developed institutes.
The uniqueness of these laboratories is that very precise
measurements are carried out here, which directly affect the
quality and safety of products manufactured in Azerbaijan. Thus,
the Azerbaijan Institute of Metrology contributes to attracting new
investments and helps develop the country’s economy,” he
COOMET serves as a collaborative nexus for metrology
professionals within the Euro-Asian domain, functioning as a
proficient regional metrology organization that adeptly executes
its objectives in alignment with sanctioned long-term strategic
frameworks. Collaboration within COOMET and its resultant outputs
empower member nations to effectively navigate metrological
challenges encountered by national economies in the context of a
globalized marketplace, which is essential for optimizing and
expediting the transnational flow of goods and services.
