المنطقة الاقتصادية الخالصة الجزائرية حتمية طاقوية

Abstract EN

On March 20, 2018, the Algerian authorities issued Presidential Decree N° 18-96, declaring an exclusive economic zone adjacent to its territorial sea, employing its right granted under article 55 of the 1982 UNCLOS.

The most important motivation behind that deed was its desire to explore and exploit its non-living natural resources, especially oil and gas trapped in its continental shelf.

But this decree was accompanied by shortcomings and sometimes breaches that this article proposes to highlight them.
