الاستثمار في الغاز الصخري في الجزائر بين المنافع الاقتصادية و الأضرار البيئية

Abstract EN

The study aims to shed light on the economic motives that guide Algeria towards the exploitation of shale gas despite the negative effects on the environment, where we posed the following problematic: What are the economic justifications that drive Algeria to go towards investing in shale gas in light of the negative effects affecting the environment? To answer this problematic, we have based on the descriptive analytical method that serves this study.

We have come to the need to prioritize market requirements and thus the economic importance of investing in shale gas accompanied by the need to reduce its risk to the environment and its resources, especially the groundwater that abounds in most areas of southern Algeria.
