Financial Afrik had echoed that Mauritania has just launched – through the National Industrial and Mining Company (SNIM) – a restricted international consultation for the feasibility study of its offshore gas pipeline network.
The study in question comes opportunely in view of the “first gas” of phase 1 of the Grand Tortue Ahmeyim (GTA) mega gas field scheduled for 2023 and the imminence of the signature of the final investment decision (DFI) of phase 2 of the GTA which should take place before the end of 2022.
Similarly, the study of Mauritanian offshore gas pipelines should be put into perspective with the promises of development of the gigantic offshore gas field of BirAllah whose initial reserves are estimated between 50 and 80Tcf.
