Sidi Bou Said Group Signs Nigeria-Morocco Gas Deal
An international government agreement was signed during the Summit of Heads of State and Government in the "Sediao" Group in Freetown, Sierra Leone, to begin development of the Nigeria-Morocco Atlantic African Gas Pipeline. The project aims to transport natural gas from Nigeria through a pipeline approximately 6,800 kilometers long, reaching Morocco, where it will be connected to the European gas network. The pipeline is expected to pass through 13 countries along the African Atlantic coast and will significantly reduce dependence on current gas sources. It is estimated to have a capacity of 30 billion cubic meters annually, with 15 billion reserved for export to Europe and Morocco. The project also aims to establish a unified regional market to support production, industry, and development in the area. The total cost is around $25 billion, with the first sections expected to be operational at the beginning of the next decade. The project benefits from political and institutional support from West African countries, with the goal of enhancing energy security and promoting economic development across the continent.
