Is there natural gases in the sahra desert?
You asked a very good question. There is an impression that the deserts contain nothing but sand. It isn't true. Deep below the surface of the desert, there are many large natural gas and oil deposits in the Sahara desert. It is a very active area of exploration in the countries of Libya and Algeria. The Sahara was not always a desert. These necessary organic material was deposited over 100 million years ago, when the area was full of vegetation, and marine life. Natural gas deposits were not actively exploited due to the inaccessibility of the area and lack of facilities. Roads have been built and drilling companies have set up facilities in the desert. Remote areas may depend on generators for electricity. Also, there was no local market. The countries of Algeria and Libya could not consume all the gas that was expected to be produced. Gas is not easy to transport long distances like oil. However, today there are gas pipelines that go under the Mediterranean sea, so the gas produced from the Sahara desert can be used in the European countries.
