Aggreko signed a contract with RWE Dea to deliver a 4-MW power plant to the Disouq onshore natural gas facility located in Egypt’s Nile Delta. The Aggreko installation will power operations across the entire site ensuring a constant and reliable power supply.
The gas produced at the project will make a substantial contribution towards supplying the growing energy market in Egypt. Production at Disouq commenced in September 2013 and the project is expected to produce a total volume of approximately 11.4 Bcm of natural gas.
“We are delighted to be supporting industry in Egypt during this important period for the country,” commented James Shepherd, Aggreko Southern and East Africa’s MD. “Access to high-quality, reliable power will be vital in helping get local industry up and running, bringing jobs and prosperity to the people of Egypt. We see high potential in the local market and Aggreko will be investing to increase our presence in the country.”
