Algeria maintained its position as the largest gas exporter to Spain for the sixth month in a row, ahead of the United States and Russia.
According to data from the natural gas operator in Spain, “Ena Gas,” Algeria’s natural gas exports last May amounted to 10,267 gigawatts per hour, representing 36.3% of Spain’s total gas imports during this month.
Algeria topped the list of gas suppliers to Spain during the first five months of this year, with a percentage of 36.1%, ahead of Russia 22.5% and the United States 19.4%.
Spain’s imports of American liquefied gas fell to third place by 18.2%, falling to 5.29 terawatt hours, compared to 8.01 terawatt hours in February 2024, and 11.01 terawatt hours in March 2023.
It is noteworthy that the Gas Exporting Countries Forum previously revealed in its annual report that the European Union imports gas through pipelines from five countries, including Algeria.
The report ranked Algeria at the forefront in Africa in terms of natural gas production, followed by Equatorial Guinea and Libya.
