The gas produced by the Alen field is processed by the existing infrastructure located at Punta Europa in Bioko Island, Equatorial Guinea. Location and reserves. The Alen gas and condensate field is mainly located in Block O and has an extension in Block I. The field is situated in the Douala Basin, Gulf of Guinea, Equatorial Guinea.
Equatorial Guinea: Energy intensity: how much energy does it use per unit of GDP? Click to open interactive version. Energy is a large contributor to CO 2 – the burning of fossil fuels accounts for around three-quarters of global greenhouse gas emissions. So, reducing energy consumption can inevitably help to reduce emissions.
