Tunisia Telegraph: Nawara Gas Field Status
The "Nawara" natural gas field in the Tataouine Desert of Tunisia, inaugurated in 2020, has been the subject of high hopes for significantly increasing domestic production by 50%, contributing to nearly 1% economic growth. After more than six years of operation, official reports indicate that the field has only increased its production by 10% compared to the previous year—representing between 18% and 31% of the country's daily gas output—falling short of the sustainable and expected growth. The failure to meet these objectives is attributed to technical issues and delays in extracting reserves, which still account for 15.25% of the total, alongside the decline of other fields in Tunisia. This has limited the field's impact on reducing the national energy deficit, which remains heavily reliant—91%—on imported gas from Algeria. Despite being Tunisia’s largest energy project, Nawara has not succeeded in breaking the country's energy dependency, and Tunisia continues to face challenges in securing enough gas for electricity generation.
