Morocco gas troubles as Algeria prepares to loop pipeline to Europe

摘要

Algeria has taken all the “necessary measures” to ensure stable gas exports to Spain even if Morocco fails to renew a key gas tran- sit agreement for supplies via the GME pipeline, which expires at the end of October, the head of state-owned Sonatrach said. Cited by the state-owned APS news agency, Toufk Hakkar said no decision had been taken regarding the renewal of the transit deal, but that regardless of the outcome there would be no impact on Algerian gas exports to Spain.
