Algeria’s gas output is rising fast, helping the country to meet domestic demand and fulfil gas and LNG export obligations.
Sharp rises in gas output from the In Amenas and In Salah Southern Fields projects are transforming the fortunes of Algeria’s gas sector.

Algeria restarted production at the third train in Q3 2016 after it was shut down due to damage caused by an attack by insurgents in January 2013.
