The Tinrhert Fields Development is a project developed by Sonatrach in eastern Algeria. The project involves connecting peripheral gas fields to existing processing facilities through new separation, compression, decarbonization and pipeline infrastructure. Its objective is to increase the production of natural gas, LPG and condensates, while enhancing the value of the Tinrhert field resources for the Algerian domestic market and export.

In production since 2004, In Salah Gas is a joint venture between Sonatrach, BP and Statoil (now Equinor). It is Algeria’s largest dry natural gas joint venture and one of the country’s key gas export projects supplying Southern Europe. The project has a production capacity of approximately 9 billion cubic metres of dry natural gas per year from seven gas fields located in the central Algerian Sahara.
