The implementation of this memorandum of understanding by the two parties aims to initiate useful steps with a view to reducing GHG emissions, the search for low-carbon energy solutions, and the energy transition.
Furthermore, this MoU provides for the continuation of joint studies with a view to identifying the possibilities for managing CO2 capture, its use and storage on the In Salah and In Amenas natural gas production sites.
