Imad Toumi, CEO of Managem Group, emphasized the acquisition&#8217;s potential to provide &#8220;clean and affordable energy for its industries,&#8221; while also contributing to the country&#8217;s energy independence and economic stability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the Tendrara project itself is considered modest, it represents a crucial step towards Morocco&#8217;s clean energy goals. The development plan is divided into two phases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first phase, currently under construction, aims to produce 100 million cubic meters of liquefied natural gas (LNG) annually by mid-2025. The second phase, still in the feasibility study, envisions a processing unit and pipeline to significantly increase production to 280 million cubic meters per year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The financial details include an initial payment of approximately $12 million by the Managem Group, with the possibility of an additional $24.5 million upon completion of phase two. Regulatory approvals remain a necessary hurdle before the deal is finalized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This acquisition represents a major shift for the Managem Group, positioning it as a player in the upstream natural gas market within Morocco. Additionally, it reinforces their commitment to a low-carbon future, in line with Africa&#8217;s broader need for sustainable energy solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The extensive portfolio of gas assets acquired covers more than 23,000 square kilometers in the eastern province of Morocco.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the Tendrara concession having a 25-year operating license and estimated resources of 10.67 billion cubic meters of natural gas, the Managem Group aims to play a significant role in shaping Morocco&#8217;s energy landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Morocco World News<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Managem Group, a leading Moroccan mining company, has taken a significant step towards diversifying its portfolio and shaping the energy future of Morocco with the acquisition of Sound Energy Morocco East Ltd.
