Potential pipeline gas scenarios from Algeria

Supply scenarios

ENTSOG scenarios consider the interlink between production, national demand and

exports. It also covers the possible split between LNG and pipe gas exports.

\\

Maximum Algerian pipeline gas scenario

This scenario combines production projection from MEDPRO

1)

, demand forecast

from the Algerian Ministry of Energy and the evolution of the breakdown between

pipeline and LNG exports according to Sonatrach prevision. According to MEDPRO

the Algerian production could evolve from 89 bcma in 2013 to twice this figure

(160bcma) by 2030. Production has been extrapolated up to 178bcma in 2035.

Demand evolution follows the intermediate scenario of the Algerian authorities which

ranges from 36bcm in 2013 to 64bcm in 2030. These figures have been extrapo-

lated by ENTSOG up to 75bcm in 2035. The export potential is the difference be-

tween these production and demand figures. The share of LNG in the exports is set

at 43% in 2018 according to Sonatrach estimation. On the 2014–2018 period LNG

share is interpolated starting from 2013 actual value (25%) and targeting 43%.

Beyond 2018, the LNG share in Algerian exports is considered flat.

\\

Intermediate Algerian pipeline gas scenario

Compared to the maximum scenario, this one only differs in term of production

projection. MEDPRO figures have been replaced by the ones of the New Policies

scenario coming from the World Energy Outlook 2013 of the IEA where the Algerian

natural gas production would reach 132bcm by 2034.

\\

Minimum Algerian pipeline gas scenario

Compared to the intermediate scenario, this one only differs in term of respective

share of LNG and pipeline exports. Here Algeria exports mostly target the global LNG

market. This translates into a 90% use of the liquefaction capacity estimated flat at

38bcma.
