The expansion of Western Desert Gas Complex (WDGC) is located in El-Amreya, Alexandria, Egypt. Once operational, the new Train D will increase WDGC’s production capacity to 1.5 bcfd, up from the current 950 MMcfd, with a capacity of 600 MMcfd. This expansion will not only boost the supply of ethane-propane mixture for Egyptian petrochemical producers but also increase WDGC’s production of LPG and condensates for the local market.
The project involves fitting scrubbers onto container ships totaling a capacity of 8.09 million TEU. This initiative aims to comply with a new regulation enforced by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) since January 1st, 2020, which mandates an 85% reduction in sulfur emissions from shipping companies. The goal is to mitigate the sector’s environmental impact and enhance air quality. Scrubbers offer an effective solution for controlling emissions from large vessels by filtering exhaust gases produced during fuel combustion, thereby reducing pollution.
North Safa is an active conventional oil field situated in shallow waters off the coast of Egypt. Specifically located in the Northeast Ramadan Concession block, the field operates at a water depth of 217 feet. Anticipated to reach peak production by 2026, North Safa’s oil extraction will persist until it reaches its economic limit in 2041, as per economic projections.
