Description: The Trans-Saharan Gas Pipeline remains a conundrum. Plans to establish a natural gas pipeline from Nigeria to Algeria have persisted for decades. Unfortunately, due to regional instability, it hasn’t been constructed. The 2023 coup in Niger exemplifies this instability. As a result, alternatives such as the Nigeria-Morocco Gas Pipeline, have been suggested. However, this project may not be significantly easier to execute as it would traverse eleven other African nations, some of which have recently witnessed their own coups. The Algerian Ambassador to the United States, Sabri Boukadoun, and the U.S. Charge d’Affaires in Abuja, Nigeria, David Green, will unite with FPRI Africa Chair Charles Ray to explore the potential for broader and more profound energy infrastructure integration between Europe, North Africa, and West Africa.
