Egypt relies more on imported gas from occupying state
The article concerns Egypt's increasing reliance on imported gas from Israel. Media outlets are discussing a new deal worth $20 billion to supply approximately 80 billion cubic meters of gas from the Tamar field to Egypt between 2031 and 2038, with a possibility of extension until 2043. This step comes amid declining domestic gas production, especially from the Zohr field, and rising demand for electricity and industry within Egypt, forcing the country to continue importing. Experts also warn that increasing dependence on Israeli gas could pose strategic risks to Egypt’s energy sector, as security and political tensions might disrupt supplies. Meanwhile, the government emphasizes that the agreements aim to ensure continuity and to establish alternatives for imports until domestic production can be increased.
