Last year proved a turning point for Egypt, as it achieved self-sufficiency in gas production, ending years of costly liquefied natural gas imports.
An even rosier future beckons as the country gears up to regain its role as an LNG exporter thanks to rising gas supplies from high-profile developments including the giant Zohr field.
The transformation underpins Egypt’s efforts to become a gas distribution and trading hub by taking advantage of its under-utilised LNG facilities and strategic position that gives it easy access to Europe and Asia.
