Morocco plans to launch $6 billion tender to develop LNG terminals

Morocco plans to launch a $6 billion tender for enhancing its natural gas infrastructure, aiming to boost its gas capacity to meet rising energy demands, announced Minister of Energy Transition Leila Benali at the CERAWeek conference in Houston. The investment, predominantly from the private sector, includes developing three liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals in Nador, Dakhla, and either Mohammedia or Jorf Lasfar, alongside pipelines linking these to major networks. Scheduled for completion between 2027 and 2030, these projects are central to Morocco’s strategy to balance energy sources, enhance efficiency, and reduce fossil fuel dependency by targeting 52% renewable electricity by 2030.
