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 consists of two plants: one for producing linear polyethylene (PEL) and another for producing polypropylene (PP), each with an annual production capacity of 300,000 tons.
Both plants utilize cutting-edge technologies that ensure top energy efficiency. These technologies are leading in the market and are the first of their kind to be implemented on the Iberian Peninsula.
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.
