Oxygene 7–13 is a 1997 album of instrumental electronic music by Jean Michel Jarre. It is the sequel to his 1976 album Oxygène. While the album was recorded using many of the same synthesizers as Oxygène, and the titling suggests a continuation from where the first album ends, many tracks have a more uptempo, trance-like character. The album is not as widely acclaimed as the original Oxygène.

"Oxygene 7", "Oxygene 8" and "Oxygene 10" have been released as singles. A number of remixes of Oxygene 7–13 tracks have been made, including those comprising most of the album Odyssey Through O2. The Orb's single "Toxygene" was originally intended for release as a remix for the single release of "Oxygene 8", but was rejected by Jarre for being too distant from the original.
