Gas, Eni: “There are no import difficulties from Algeria”

“Eni does not find any difficulty on the Algerian side in the present and future availability of the agreed additional volumes of gas, which, moreover, are already arriving in Italy”. This is what Eni has announced regarding indiscretions reported by an investigative journalism site on gas supplies from Algeria. “In the last week – reports the group – an average of 70 million cubic meters per day arrived in Italy from Algeria through Transmed, representing about 36% of total supplies and more than three times the flow that arrived. from Russia in the same period. Over the last few years there have never been these levels of flows from Algeria during the month of September “. The Algerian company Sonatrach would have difficulty in honoring the contract for the supplementary supply of gas to Italy according to what Algerie Part writes: Italy would have been promised 9 billion m3 of gas to be supplied starting from November until 2023-early 2024, with an increase in supplies of one billion m3 per month. But at the moment Sonatrach would only be able to ship 200 million m3 more in November. According to the site, there have been three crisis meetings at Sonatrach this week to seek urgent solutions to the problem. Of the 9 billion m3 promised, Sonatrach could supply just 4 billion m3.
