Egypt Expands National Gas Network to Strengthen Supply Security

Egypt has completed and brought into operation a number of new natural gas transmission pipelines, reinforcing the national network and supporting the security of energy supplies.

The network’s reported length has grown from 5,680 kilometres to 8,242 kilometres, reflecting an expansion of the infrastructure used to transport gas across the country.

The project summary also records the implementation of approximately 1,662 kilometres of pipelines. It does not specify the period covered by that figure or explain how it relates to the overall increase in network length.

The newly operational lines form part of the country’s energy supply arteries, strengthening the transmission network’s role in delivering natural gas.
