Egypt exported 172.8 billion ft3 of gas from Idku in 2018 – 2019

Reuters reports that the country became self-sufficient in natural gas late last year, and is looking to establish itself as a regional hub for energy trading by liquefying gas and re-exporting it.

In March, the Egyptian oil minister reportedly said that the country was seeking to export 2 billion ft³/d by the end of 2019.
