Daily News Egypt: Gas exploration bid to be offered early 2015 in 11 areas

A global bid for natural gas research and exploration will be offered in eleven areas at the beginning of next year, according to a prominent official with the EGAS company.

He said that the areas will include three land plots in the Delta and eight marine sites in the Mediterranean, “and we sent maps of the areas that EGAS intends to offer to the relevant authorities in order to obtain approvals,” the official explained.

He added that a meeting will be held with the Navy this month in order to agree on the details of the eight marine areas that will be included in the tender.

He stated that EGAS also obtained approvals for a shale gas research and exploration bid in four areas in the Western Desert.
