Egypt's water resources in focus

The Ethiopian government recently announced the completion of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) and extended invitations to several countries, including Egypt, to attend the official inauguration ceremony scheduled for September 2025. This announcement has sparked widespread concern and disapproval in Egypt, particularly given the ongoing fears about the dam's potential negative impact on the country's historic share of Nile River water, which is Egypt's primary lifeline. In this Factsheet, we will shed light on the changes in Egypt's water resources since the first fill of the GERD in 2020. We will also highlight the efforts made by the Egyptian government to secure the country's water needs, chief among them the expansion of seawater desalination projects. The Nile River is Egypt's key source of freshwater, with 55.5 billion cubic meters (bcm), representing 93% of freshwater sources, followed by 2.5 bcm coming from deep groundwater, 1.3 bcm from rains, and 0.38 bcm from seawater desalination. In addition to natural water resources, Egypt treats water. In fiscal year (FY) 2023/24, the country produced 21.95 bcm by treating surface groundwater and wastewater. The number of water treatment stations in Egypt increased over the past five years from 2,742 in FY2019/20 to 2,795 in FY2023/24. This represents around 2% increase over the mentioned period. As a result of expanding water stations, clean water production grew by 5.2% from 110 bcm in FY2019/20 to 115.7 bcm in FY2023/24. Cairo came on top of clean water-producing governorates, with 1.9 bcm in FY2023/24. Water consumption hiked from 8.5 bcm in FY2019/20 to 9.1 bcm last year, recording 7% growth rate. Despite the increase in produced water, the per capita consumption declined from 110.1 cubic meters (m3) in FY2019/20 to 108.6 m3 in FY2023/24. Notably, in the past FY, the New Valley governorate had the highest per capita consumption with 359.3 m3. On the other hand, Minya governorate came last with a per capita of 55.9 m3. In FY2023/24, water consumed for agriculture irrigation hit 62.13 bcm or 76% of Egypt's water resources, followed by 11.48 bcm used for drinking, and 5.52 bcm in the industrial sector. To overcome the projected repercussions of the GRED, the Egyptian government expanded its plans for seawater desalination projects. Currently, Egypt has around 100 stations with a production capacity of 1.2 million cubic meters (mcm). © 2020-2023 Arab Finance For Information Technology. All Rights Reserved.

Cypriot natural gas from Cronos field set to link with Egypt by 2027

Arab Finance: Cypriot natural gas from the Cronos field is expected to be connected to Egypt's infrastructure and processing and liquefaction facilities by 2027, Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources Karim Badaw said. In his meeting with Cypriot Minister of Energy, Commerce, and Industry George Papanastasiou, Badawi affirmed Egypt's readiness to complete the project and to provide a new energy corridor in the region. He added that this project will enhance regional cooperation, benefiting the people of both countries, while removing any obstacles that may hinder its progress. During the meeting, the two ministers touched upon the latest developments at the Aphrodite field, including finalizing executive agreements and the marine survey of the gas pipeline route. The planned route is currently underway in the economic waters of the two countries, in preparation for linking the field to Egyptian facilities. On July 22nd, Spokesman for the Presidency Mohamed El-Shennawy unveiled Egypt's plans to reinforce cooperation with Cyprus to diversify natural gas supplies and activate the regional gas trading center strategy. During the Egypt Energy Show (EGYPES 2025), Egypt and Cyprus signed two agreements to begin developing Cypriot natural gas discoveries, using Egyptian infrastructure. © 2020-2023 Arab Finance For Information Technology.
