Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources Tarek El Molla has inaugurated the integrated Gastec – Eni fueling station in cooperation with Fajr Egypt, to supply cars with natural gas, liquid fuel and associated services. The station is located in the Banafseg area in New Cairo.
El Molla stated that the new station, with its integrated and diverse services, comes within the plan to spread stations on axes and highways to serve motorists and the surrounding areas.
The minister said that the spread of natural gas supply outlets represents a real qualitative leap for the national project to convert cars to run on natural gas. These stations are also using digital transformation to provide services and facilities, including electronic payment, transfer services, and specialized oils.
Meanwhile, Gastec Chairman’s Abdelfattah Farahat explained that the operating capacity of the Banafseg natural gas station is 800 cubic meters per hour and is capable of supplying about 1,200 cars per day.

This initiative aligns with the national plan to establish integrated supply stations and deliver natural gas services, promoting the use of this clean and efficient fuel source.
