Import replacement benefits Algeria's pharmaceuticals
OBG
plus

Pharmaceuticals is one of Algeria’s most dynamic manufacturing industries. The state-owned SAIDAL group is the main producer, and there were approximately 80 other local and foreign manufacturers operating in the segment in 2018. Following the 2009 imposition of restrictions on the import of goods that can be produced locally, national output has grown rapidly, leading to rising levels of self-sufficiency.…

Analysis

LPG central to increasing Algeria's domestic production
OBG
plus

Despite being a major oil producer, Algeria is a net fuel importer and is thus in the paradoxical position of being rich in hydrocarbons but lacking in refined products. It is currently in the process of developing its refining operations in order to satisfy domestic fuel demand, which has grown steadily since the 2000s. Reducing Fuel Imports The development of refining activities is now more urgent…

Analysis

Gas as a viable energy alternative in Algeria
OBG
plus

As oil output declines and fields mature, state-owned Sonatrach is relying more on Algeria’s extensive gas reserves to maintain exports while meeting growing domestic demand, with gas the focus of its SH2030 Leading the Change transformation strategy. There are two unconventional and offshore exploration wells planned for 2019, seven for 2020 and 12 in 2021 – with half to be carried out by Sonatrach…

Analysis

Algeria's solar and wind power industries grow
OBG
plus

In November 2018 the government released a new series of tenders for electricity production from renewable sources. A total of 200 MW of solar capacity is available for development, of which 150 MW can be bid on by international independent power producers (IPPs) in partnership with local firms, while 50 MW are reserved for state-owned utilities operator Sonelgaz. This is a key step in opening up the…

The Report: Algeria 2018: Energy & Renewables
OBG
plus

The steep fall of oil prices in 2014 underlined the extent to which the Algerian economy, already under pressure from growing domestic demand for energy and decreasing output, was dependent on hydrocarbons. Algeria is now facing the challenges of reforming and revitalising this strategic sector and, through state-owned energy company Sonatrach and its SH2030 Leading the Change strategy, is giving shape…

Chapter

The Report: Algeria 2018: Industry & Mining
OBG
plus

The industrial sector is seen as having potential to drive economic diversification and reduce the import bill. In addition to heavy industrial subsectors such as steel and cement, pharmaceuticals, agri-business and automotive manufacturing hold promise in becoming key exporters. For the sector as a whole, and particularly for small businesses, investment in logistics and transport capacities will…

Interview

Claudio Descalzi, CEO, Eni : Interview
OBG
plus

Interview : Claudio Descalzi How would you assess the potential of the upstream segment in the medium term? CLAUDIO DESCALZI: Algeria still has a great upstream potential. Gas production is proving to be vital as many resources in the south-west basins are being developed and will be producing over the next few years. I also believe that Algeria has much to benefit from re-examining well-known producing…

Overview

Algeria's industrial policy of small business creation and local integration
OBG
plus

The 2014 slowdown in oil prices revealed the vulnerability of Algeria’s economy, heavily reliant on hydrocarbons, and highlighted the need for a paradigm shift. The government sees the industrial sector as having the potential to drive diversification and reduce the import bill. In addition to heavy industrial subsectors, such as steel (see analysis) and cement, a number of other industries have…

Country Report

The Report: Algeria 2018
OBG
plus

Reaching a population of 42.3m by the end of 2018, Algeria is the second-largest country in North Africa after Egypt. The country is one of Africa’s most important producers of hydrocarbons and enjoys large reserves of shale oil and gas not commercially exploited. Although Algeria enjoys a relatively closed economy, it holds close trading links with its Mediterranean neighbours to the north, and
