The available Refinery capacities in Egypt does need a serious enhancement program which should includes enhance/upgrading of the existing refineries, meanwhile support adding additional refinery capacities
The need for an additional refinery capacity is an invaluable target utilizing the latest Hydrocracking refinery technology to cope with the increasing Egypt demand from all different oil light products. This target does dictates need for all necessary efforts to establish such Mega Projects with its associated huge volume of internal/external foreign investment.
Mega Investment Project to build a Refinery Complex With capacity of 100,000 Barrel Oil per Day.
- The first Mega project on the Mediterranean coast and should add a positive remarkable value to the area of Alamien.
- Maximize the utilization of El Hamra storage export/import facilities which have a very strategical geographical position alongside the northern coast of the Mediterranean Sea.
