The Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources of Egypt said that several oil and gas companies operating in Egypt have drilled several wells in their concession areas in the Western Desert, Eastern Desert and the Nile Delta, including five new exploratory wells.
In a statement, the
ministry said the new wells are expected to add around 47 million cubic feet of
natural gas and about 4,300 barrels per day (bpd) of crude oil and condensates
to Egypt’s daily production. -TradeArabia News Service
