Algeria, Nigeria, Niger Sign Deals On Gas Pipeline To Europe

Algeria, Niger, and Nigeria have signed deals to build a $13 billion gas pipeline that will transport up to 30 billion cubic meters of natural gas per year to Europe ¹ ² ³. 

The Trans-Saharan Gas Pipeline will span approximately 4,000 kilometers, starting in Warri, Nigeria, and ending in Hassi R'Mel, Algeria, where it will connect to existing pipelines that reach Europe ¹ ³.

This project has been in the works for decades, with an initial agreement signed in 2009, but progress was delayed due to security concerns and tensions between the governments involved ⁴. 

The pipeline is expected to boost economic growth and provide a new source of energy for Europe.

The signing of the deals marks a significant milestone in the project's development, with the countries involved committing to work together to bring the pipeline to fruition ².
