The Sonatrach Group has made significant progress in its ranking of the natural resources governance index for the year 2020, published by the Natural Resource Governance Institute from New York (United States), a press release said on Sunday.

“In an interim assessment of the resource governance index for the year 2020, published by the Natural Resource Governance Institute, the Sonatrach Group recorded remarkable progress in its ranking, with an increase of 18 points compared to 2017, and thus its performance is considered satisfactory and positive,” the press release stated.

The Natural Resource Governance Institute is an independent non-profit organization dedicated to improving the governance of countries over their natural resources, in particular oil, gas and minerals, to promote sustainable and inclusive development and headquartered in New York.

The Resource Governance Index measures the quality of countries’ resource management and ranks them accordingly. The index is validated by sending a survey to 150 experts in 81 countries, who research the questions raised in the survey, compile documents and complete the survey. Then, the quality of the survey data is assessed by the Institute and enriched with more data.
