# Critical infrastructure operators headquartered in Algeria

Tamtam tracks 46 critical infrastructure operators headquartered in Algeria. This list ranks all of them by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by Sonatrach, sonelgaz and Algérie Telecom. Their median headcount is 1,100. Half of them were founded in 1991 or later.

This selection of large companies in Algeria includes major operators in critical infrastructure. Sonatrach and Naftal Spa are prominent in the oil and gas sector, while Algérie Telecom, Ooredoo Algerie, and ATM Mobilis are key players in telecommunications. Sonelgaz provides electricity and gas, and Air Algérie is the national airline. These companies are primarily large, established organizations, many of them founded in the mid to late 20th century.

A notable pattern among these companies is their significant role in essential services. For example, SEAAL provides clean water, BNA Algérie and Société Générale Algérie are major banks, and CHU Mustapha is a leading hospital. The concentration of headquarters in Algiers and its surrounding areas, such as Hydra, Mohammadia, and Chéraga, indicates a central hub for these critical operations.

## How this list is built

Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
