As demand rises for clean and conventional energy sources, Mauritania’s positioning and abundant resources make it an attractive partner for Europe and beyond.

Mauritania’s Minister of Energy and Petroleum, Mohamed Ould Khaled, presents his grand vision for Mauritania as a future producer and exporter of sustainable energy, gas and green hydrogen.

The ambitious project will bring one of Africa’s most anticipated gas ventures to life, tapping into vast offshore reserves.

BirAllah’s anticipated production capacity, with initial estimates suggesting it could yield up to 4bn cubic feet per day, positions it as a transformative asset for Mauritania’s energy sector.

The private sector and the European Union are both supporting Mauritania’s push to become a green hydrogen global powerhouse.

Mauritania’s rich solar and wind potential positions it well for renewable energy projects.

With its commitment to sustainable energy development and economic growth, SMH is a cornerstone of Mauritania’s oil and gas sector.

SNIM (Société Nationale Industrielle et Minière), the largest mining company in Mauritania with 14 million tons of sales, aims to scale up its operations to become a regional mining hub over the next twenty years.
