Gov't: National natural gas network supplies stable
During the meeting, Badawi shed light on the progress made so far in the preparation of the floating regasification units berthed at Egyptian ports. These units receive, regasify, and inject imported liquefied natural gas (LNG) directly into the national grid, supporting power plants and other essential sectors, he said.
He affirmed that all relevant national entities and companies are cooperating to ensure the security and sustainability of natural gas supplies to all state sectors across the country.
Badawi added that petroleum sector companies have already completed all required works, preparations, and technical tests ahead of schedule at the marine berths of Arab Petroleum Pipelines Company or SUMED and Sonker ports in Ain Sokhna, in preparation for accommodating the floating units.
The premier also discussed with the petroleum minister the natural gas supply procedures for power generation stations nationwide to prevent any electricity outages.
In this regard, Badawi confirmed the stability of natural gas supplies through the national network to meet the needs of the electricity sector and other vital sectors. (MENA)
