The team was originally part of the Mouloudia Club d'Alger (MC Alger) club, but became a part of Groupement Sportif des Pétroliers (Arabic: المجمع الرياضي البترولي; English: Sports Group of Oil Fields) on 2 June 2008. Starting from the 1999–2000 season, the team has won numerous titles in Algeria.
By the start of the 2023–24, the defending champions CSM Constantine had lost most of its star players and GS Pétroliers returned to win the title for six consecutive seasons, in addition to nine consecutive cup wins.[2][3] Due to its winning streak and sponsorship from Sonatrach, GS Pétroliers was the only club not to struggle with financial issues in the early 2010s.[4][5] The 2019–20 and 2020–21 season were then cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
On 30 November 2019, GS Pétroliers qualified for the 2020 season of the Basketball Africa League (BAL), by winning the West Division of the qualifying tournaments.[6] The season was later rescheduled to 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In the group stage, GSP lost its three game and could not qualify for the playoffs.
From 2008 to 2020, the team was known as GS Pétroliers as it was part of the multi-sports club with that name.
