Report summary
Algeria maintains its dominance as Africa's largest gas producer, but increased investment and fiscal reform are required to drive growth. On-going compression work at Hassi R'Mel, additional sales gas from legacy oil fields and new projects in the southwest will help Algeria sustain production in the short term. Longer-term, the same risks and need to develop new replacement supply remains. Total exports (pipe and LNG) have fluctuated over the last decade, averaging 47.3 bcma. We anticipate a downward trend in the level of gas available for export due to growing domestic demand.

New gas from yet-to-find and – potentially – unconventional resources will take years to materialise
