Africa s natural gas reserves amount to about 8 of global reserves.

Call In the Reserves

Reserves are like savings accounts.

But non conventional oil reserves exist, and if one adds to it that the conventional reserves are sufficient to cover world consumption needs for the next few decades, it is clear that the problem of oil is not its scarcity.

Certainly, oil reserves are not infinite.

For now the non conventional reserves are for the most part unexploited because they are uncompetitive on price with conventional oil and other sources of energy, such as natural gas. Perhaps it will never become necessary to use these reserves of non conventional fossil fuel, if the development of alternative technologies (for example, liquid hydrogen) should render oil obsolete.

The non conditional reserves of oil are equal to about 250 times the conventional reserves and in theory could satisfy world energy needs (at today's levels) for the next 5000 years.

Argentina has particularly high potential for production of non conventional gas resources as well, given that it holds the world s third highest level of such reserves, after China and the United States.
