Morocco\u2019s tenders for nat.gas infrastructure are finally here: <\/strong>Morocco has launched the long-awaited tendering process for the construction of a floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) at Nador West Med (NWM) port and a new gas pipeline network, according to statements published last week (here<\/a> and here<\/a>). The combined investment ticket for both projects totals MAD 9.5 bn (c. USD 954.2 mn), Morocco World News<\/a> reported on Monday.<\/p>\n

The timeline:<\/strong> Interested developers now have until 30 January 2026 to file their pre-qualification bids, with Rabat looking to kickstart operations in the projects as soon as 2027. <\/p>\n

#1- A MAD 2.7 bn LNG terminal: <\/strong>The Energy Ministry is seeking operators to charter a FSRU terminal at NWM port at an investment cost of MAD 2.73 bn. The selected firm will also install the required technical equipment on the jetty, then transfer these assets to the port authority. The facility will reportedly be linked to the Maghreb-Europe gas pipeline<\/a> (MEG), and is expected to regasify 5.1 bn cbm annually, with an expansion capacity of up to 7.5 bn cbm during peak demand, the news outlet reported. <\/p>\n

#2- More gas pipeline infrastructure for <\/strong>MAD 6.4 bn<\/strong>:<\/strong> The second tender would cover the design, construction, financing, and operation of a pipeline linking NWM port and the MEG pipeline at an investment cost of MAD 6.4 bn. This will be connected to a secondary pipeline \u2014 valued at MAD 425 mn \u2014 linked to industrial zones in Kenitra and Mohammedia. <\/p>\n

The announced projects are just pieces of a <\/strong>bigger picture plan<\/a><\/strong> by Morocco to shore up <\/strong>its status as a regional energy hub, <\/strong>as well as meet rising local demand for natural gas. The pipelines are designed to be connected to the 6.8k African-Atlantic Pipeline \u2014 a USD 25 bn pipeline project currently under consideration that will connect Senegal, Mauritania, and Morocco in its first phase, with a targeted capacity to move up to 30 bn cbm of gas annually. <\/p>\n

Rabat is due for high gas demand: <\/strong>National gas consumption is projected to surge from the current 1.2 bn cbm to around 8 bn cbm by 2027, driven by capacity expansion of existing gas power plants as coal and fuel oil are phased out. Consumption could reach as much as 12 bn cbm per year by 2030, potentially leading to a second import terminal at Mohammedia or Jorf Lasfar, the news outlet reported.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
