SONATRACH signed an agreement with the Slovenian company GEOPLIN under the supervision of Abdelmadjid TEBBOUNE, President of the People's Democratic Republic of Algeria and Robert Golob, Prime Minister of the Republic of Slovenia.

This agreement consists of a natural gas purchase and sale contract providing for the transport of natural gas to Slovenia via the gas pipeline linking Algeria to Italy, and thus marks a further step towards strengthening energy ties between Algeria and Slovenia.

This agreement also marks the desire of both parties to consolidate their ties to develop new partnership opportunities in the future.

Under this agreement, SONATRACH is consolidating its position in the Slovenian market while meeting the growing demand for natural gas in the European market. This collaboration not only strengthens Algeria's presence on the international energy scene, but also demonstrates its commitment to expanding bilateral economic cooperation to a higher level.
