This plan will be carried out in accordance with the &quot;voluntary application standard for the reduction of the global volume of gas flared or released into the atmosphere&quot; set up by the World Bank initiative, the GGFR (Global Gas Flaring Reduction) in which Gabon and certain oil operators have joined. The fatal flaring thresholds will be determined field by field then, following best practices, new regulations will be drawn up. Compared to the current situation of an annual flaring volume of around 1.6 Gm3 (billion m3). Recent studies, carried out as part of the development of the Climate Plan show that the implementation of the various reduction plans by the operators should result in a reduction of the order of 1 Gm3 by 2015, i.e. more than 60% off. We also note that the Emerging Gabon Mines and Hydrocarbons Sector Plan provides for the development of gas through the production of electricity, the development of petrochemicals with the Olam and Tata groups to support the projects of the Emergent Gabon Agriculture Plan. Other gas recovery projects are under study. Unlike previous years, Gabon is now creating a national natural gas consumption market.
