Africa-Europe 6,000km pipeline project
The ECOWAS Group has approved the Nigeria-Morocco Gas Pipeline project, one of the largest cross-border energy projects in Africa, with a cost of approximately $27 billion. The project aims to connect Nigeria's gas reserves—Africa's largest gas producer—to European markets via Morocco, passing through 13 countries along the West African coast. This initiative enhances regional economic and energy cooperation. Construction is expected to commence in 2028, with the first gas shipments beginning in 2031, following the completion of technical and financial phases. The project represents a significant step toward diversifying energy sources in the region and reducing dependence on external supplies, especially after Algeria ceased gas supplies to Spain in 2022.
