As part of its strategy to boost domestic oil and gas output, the Egyptian oil and gas sector has added roughly 12,000 barrels per day (bbl/d) of crude oil and condensates to Western Desert production over the past two weeks, the Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources (MoPMR) announced in a statement.
This comes as Khalda Petroleum Company, a joint venture (JV) between the Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation (EGPC) and US-based Apache, has achieved a significant production leap by adding more than 10,000 bbl/d of crude oil and condensates in just two weeks.
In a related effort to maximize output from state-owned assets, the General Petroleum Company (GPC) has achieved its highest production levels since October 2024, with total output reaching around 74,500 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d)
