Uber launches Senior Accounts in MENA to support older adults' mobility
Uber has introduced a new feature across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region designed to make transportation easier and more accessible for older adults. The launch of Senior Accounts and Simple Mode aims to help older people travel independently while giving their families peace of mind. Now available in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Qatar, Bahrain, Jordan, and Lebanon, the feature allows family members to set up and manage rides for older relatives, even if they live in different cities or countries. Senior Accounts are part of Uber's Family Profiles and provide a streamlined version of the app with larger text, simplified navigation, and the ability for trusted family members to provide remote assistance. For users who prefer to ride on their own, Simple Mode can be activated through the app's accessibility settings, offering a user-friendly interface with fewer steps and clearer prompts. 'These features reflect the company's ongoing efforts to make the Uber app a platform that works for the entire family, from teens to seniors,' the company said. Building on the success of Teen Accounts, Uber is bridging another important gap in the mobility space. 'In the MENA region, where strong family ties and intergenerational support are a way of life, this offering will help older adults stay independent and connected, with the reassurance that loved ones are always just a tap away.' Read: The features come as mobility challenges for seniors in the region—such as limited public transport access, long distances, or extreme heat—can pose significant barriers. Senior Accounts bridge these gaps by allowing older riders to save favourite destinations, choose flexible payment options, and share trip details in real time with loved ones. Family members can also book or monitor rides remotely through the app. How it works: A family organiser creates a Family Profile and invites an older adult to join as a senior. The senior receives a text message with a link to download the app and register. Once set up, they can request rides themselves or allow a family member to manage trips on their behalf. For those not added to a Family Profile, Simple Mode remains available as an independent feature through the app's accessibility settings. Following successful launches in the US, Brazil, Chile, and Mexico, Uber's rollout in the MENA region underscores its broader strategy of building inclusive technology that meets the needs of all age groups. The company developed these features in collaboration with older riders and accessibility experts to ensure the platform works for every stage of life.

Dana Gas highlights development on Balsam-3 well in Egypt within $100mln program
Arab Finance: Dana Gas has announced the initial results from the Begonia-2 appraisal well and progress of recompletion works at the Balsam-3 well in Egypt's onshore Nile Delta, according to a press release. This is the first stage of the UAE-based company's $100 million investment program to support local gas production, expand reserves, and meet growing energy demand. Begonia-2 is the first appraisal well within the Begonia development area and the first of eleven appraisal and exploration wells planned under the program. The drilling and logging results highlight that the well contains 9 billion cubic feet (bcf) of gas as an initial estimate, which is subject to increase. Located in the New El-Manzala concession, Begonia-2 will produce an additional 5 million cubic feet daily. The well is operated by the joint venture (JV), El-Wastani Patrolmen Company (Wasco). The $100 million investment program is expected to boost Dana Gas's long-term production in Egypt and add approximately 80 billion cubic feet in recoverable gas reserves throughout the two-year plan. Meanwhile, the drilling phase is being implemented using the EDC-54 rig, and the next well is expected to spud in August. Dana Gas has also begun to re-complete several wells in other geological layers, which are anticipated to add more reserves and enhance production. Work is currently underway on the Balsam-3 well, where the group redeployed the EGYPTCO rig from its plug-and-abandonment (P&A) mode. The estimated reserves from the recompleted well stand at 4 billion cubic feet, with an expected additional production of 3 million cubic feet of gas per day. The successful recompletion of Balsam-3 is projected to lower the risk associated with drilling exploration wells in the area and further enhance output. Richard Hall, CEO, Dana Gas, said: 'The successful drilling of the appraisal well 'Begonia-2' and the recompletion of the 'Balsam-3' well marks a significant strategic milestone. It signals the first steps in our ambitious $100 million investment program in Egypt, which includes drilling 11 new wells.' The CEO commented: 'We have been developing and producing gas in Egypt for over a decade, and the signing of the concession area consolidation agreement with the Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Company (EGAS) late last year has allowed us to acquire additional areas under improved financial terms, enabling us to launch this new phase. 'The success of drilling this well opens vast prospects for gas production in the 'Begonia' area and presents promising future opportunities for expansion and growth. It will also extend the operational life of our assets in Egypt,' Hall added. Earlier this month, Egyptian Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources Karim Badawi visited the 'Begonia-2' drilling location to monitor the commencement of operations and follow up on the project's progress. © 2020-2023 Arab Finance For Information Technology.

The planned investment in Mina West contributes to increasing Shell's combined integrated gas and upstream total production by 1% annually to 2030. It is also expected to generate an internal rate of return (IRR) in excess of the hurdle rate for Shell's integrated gas business. In collaboration with the Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Company (EGAS), Shell (60%) will operate the field alongside Kufpec (Egypt) Limited (40%). Dalia Elgabry, Vice President and Country Chair of Shell Egypt, commented: 'Investing in new production at Mina West expands our industry-leading integrated gas business and supports delivery of secure, reliable energy to Egypt's domestic market in-line with our strategy to create more value with less emissions.' Discovered in October 2023, the Mina West gas field will be developed as a subsea tie-back to the existing infrastructure of West Delta Deep Marine (WDDM). It will support the delivery of reliable energy to Egypt's domestic gas market. The development of Mina West aligns with Egypt's vision to become a regional energy hub, reflecting a commitment to energy cooperation and strategic investment across the region. © 2020-2023 Arab Finance For Information Technology.
