Register NowLocal consumption of gas in fiscal 2019-20, that ended June 30, reached 5.8 billion scf/d, with 60% of the commodity used to generate power, 23% in the industrial sector, 11% in the oil sector and 6% in households and cars, Magdy Galal said in a statement by the ministry of petroleum and mineral resources.
Egypt's gas fortunes turned around in 2015 when Italy's Eni discovered the 30 Tcf supergiant Zohr field in the Mediterranean, helping bring the North African country back to self-sufficiency in gas.
Longer-term, with Mediterranean countries taking growing quantities of LNG, it is expected Egypt could gain significant market influence.
Eni made a new gas discovery in shallow waters offshore Egypt in the Great Nooros Area, bringing total estimated gas in place for the area to more than 4 Tcf, the company said Sept. 16.
