The BirAllah Gas Hub aims to position Mauritania as a leading European gas supplier, leveraging its estimated 50-80 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of reserves. The government targets a Final Investment Decision by the end of 2025, with first gas production expected in 2030.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><strong>Project Highlights<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Development Cost: $17 billion<\/li>\n<li>LNG Capacity: 10 Mtpa<\/li>\n<li>First Gas: 2030<\/li>\n<li>Reserves: 50-80 Tcf<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The gas produced will serve domestic power generation and industrial needs, while the remainder will support export operations, enhancing regional energy security and industrial development.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><strong>De-Risking the TSGP Through Diversification<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nHistorically, the TSGP has relied heavily on Nigeria\u2019s Niger Delta gas production, which faces challenges such as insecurity, sabotage, and contractual instability.
