AMMAN, Jordan: The continual disruption in Egyptian natural gas flow to Jordan is reducing the electricity production in Amman, said Amin al-Zoughl, the director of the production planning department in the Jordanian Electricity Company. “Electrical power stations in Jordan will not be able to work with the current supplies of oil and diesel for more than a month,” al-Zoughl reported. “The electrical system's load increased to 2,350 megawatts and is expected to rise to 2,550 megawatts,” he added. Generators in the electrical system can produce 3,100 megawatts, he said, adding that “new generators were added to the power stations.” “A store of oil derivatives will be built” if the Egyptian gas flow continues to be disrupted, he said. Power stations in Jordan are currently consuming 4,000 tons of heavy fuel and 4,500 tons of diesel. Total losses due to the gas disruptions in 2011 equal 682 million Jordanian Dinars, or U.S. $961.92 million. “The Jordanian public treasury loses U.S. $5 million daily because of this disruption,” he claims.
