A further analysis shows a close correlation (above 90%) between Algeria’s nation-
al demand and exports to Europe. In the period 2007–2013, Algerian national gas
demand has increased from 24bcma to almost 40bcma, representing an increase
of 55%. On the other hand Algerian gas exports to Europe have fallen from 50bcma
to less than 40bcma representing a 25% decrease. This illustrates the challenge of
developing gas production facing both national demand and export expectations.
