Cairo: Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouli met with Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources Karim Badawi to review the latest developments regarding integrating Floating Storage and Regasification Units (FSRUs) into the national natural gas network to enhance energy security and meet summer demand.

According to State Information Service Egypt, Badawi highlighted the progress made in the preparation of the floating regasification units berthed at Egyptian ports. These units are pivotal in receiving and injecting imported liquefied natural gas (LNG) directly into the national grid, thereby supporting power plants and other essential sectors.

Badawi 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.

He further noted that petroleum sector companies have 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. This preparation is critical for accommodating the floating units, ensuring readiness for the increased demand in the upcoming summer months.
