Nigeria and Morocco are moving forward with plans for a $25 billion natural gas pipeline that would stretch 6,900 kilometers along the Atlantic coast of West Africa.
The ambitious infrastructure project aims to link 13 nations, creating a direct energy corridor from West African gas fields to European markets.
Nigeria, Libya, and Algeria collectively flared more than 25 billion cubic meters of natural gas in 2025, according to earlier reports.
The development signals a significant shift in regional energy strategy, as African nations seek to monetize vast domestic gas reserves while reducing Europe's reliance on traditional supply routes.
The pipeline would traverse the coasts of multiple West African countries, potentially transforming the region's energy landscape and export capabilities.
This initiative comes as West African nations grapple with substantial gas flaring volumes.
