 NIGERIA ALGERIA TRANS SAHARAN GAS PIPELINE DEAL


In June 2022, the energy ministers of Algeria, Niger, and Nigeria revived a decades-old project to develop a gas pipeline that would traverse the Sahara Desert. Named the Trans-Saharan Gas Pipeline (TSGP), the envisioned project would connect Nigeria’s expansive Warri hydrocarbon fields to Algeria’s Hassi R’Mel feeder hub on the Mediterranean coast. Up to a trillion cubic feet of natural gas annually will pass through 2,565 miles of pipeline, with Algeria’s segment comprising 1,435 miles, more than half the total project length. Recent talks, supported by the European Union, saw the respective governments agree to establish a task force to update the project’s feasibility study, initially conducted in 2005.


In the readiness of the mega project, International Journalist Abdulmalek is currently in Nigeria on a field observation on the rich deposit of gas and other essential details in Nigeria . 

As past of Abdulmalek findings, he met Gasper Babatunde a Broadcast Journalist with the Federal Radio Corporation (Lagos Operations) who gave further insight on the benefit of the mega Gas Pipeline project not only to partner nations but also European Nations on the long run . 

The partner nations  have agreed to build a more than 4,000km-long Trans Saharan gas pipeline.  Estimated to cost $13bn, the pipeline will start in Nigeria and end in Algeria. It will then be connected to existing pipelines that run to Europe.
