There have got to be worse times to take over as the Chairman of Egypt’s state-owned gas company, EGAS, than just before the largest gas field ever found in the Mediterranean Sea begins to come on stream. The Zohr gas field will have a massive impact on Egypt’s domestic needs and will cover a shortfall of 900mn cubic feet of gas between consumption and production. Egypt has further noteworthy gas fields offshore in the Nile Delta and El Bakly is leading the push to find more.
