Egypt has received a new floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) at Alexandria Port on Monday as part of efforts to secure natural gas supplies for power generation during the summer. The Energos Power, owned by US-based New Fortress Energy, arrived from Germany. Petroleum and Mineral Resources Minister Karim Badawi, who inspected the vessel upon arrival, said the unit is the second of its kind operating in Egypt.

The expansion will bring the total number of FSRUs to four, enhancing the flexibility and resilience of Egypt's gas supply system during peak demand periods.
