据国外媒体10月7日开罗报道,埃及国有天然气公司EGAS主管哈立德·阿卜杜勒·巴迪周二在开罗接受媒体记者采访时表示,埃及准备在2016年上半年启动新一轮埃及地中海海域天然气勘探作业招标。
巴迪是在埃及政府日前宣布已授出4份地中海石油和天然气勘探新许可证以后发表上述讲话的。
就在数周前,意大利能源巨头埃尼公司在埃及地中海海域获得了巨型Zohr天然气发现,这个重要天然气发现已激起国际能源巨头对这个地区新的兴趣。

Egypt is preparing to launch a new bidding round for gas exploration off the Mediterranean coast in the first half of 2016, Khaled Abdel Badie, the head of the state gas company EGAS told Reuters on Tuesday.
His comments came after Egypt announced it had awarded four new licences to explore for oil and gas off its Mediterranean coast, weeks after Eni's giant Zohr gas find piqued fresh international interest in the area.
