The total value of Egypt's fuel imports rose to $601 million during September 2017 from $476 million during the same period in 2016, the country's state-run statics agency CAPMAS said Thursday.
"Crude oil imports fell to $151 million in the same period (September 2016)," CAPMAS further added.
The imports of petroleum products dropped to around $284 million, compared with $299 million.
"The value of coal imports registered about $34 million versus $22 million, with an increase of $12 million," the agency stated.
