埃及计划三年内实现石油产品自给自足

据能源世界网9月28日开罗报道，埃及石油和矿产资源部部长Tarek El Molla宣布，埃及计划于2023年实现石油产品的自给自足。

埃及石油部援引El Molla周日在埃及大开罗莫斯托罗德地区（Mostorod）埃及炼油厂项目的开幕式上表示，埃及正在努力实现到2023年汽油和柴油完全自给自足的目标。这项工作从2016年就开始了，当时的年进口量达到1000万吨，耗资45亿美元。

据El Molla称，2020年期间的进口量将为350万吨，费用为15亿美元。

这位部长指出，有许多因素有助于逐步实现石油产品的自给自足，比如运营新的炼油厂，提高现有设施的效率，合理化消费，扩大国家将汽车改装成天然气的项目，以及改善交通网络。

Egypt aims to become self-sufficient in petroleum products within three years, says Minister

Egypt plans to reach self-sufficiency in petroleum products in 2023, the country's Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources Tarek El Molla has announced.

"Work is being done to reach the goal of achieving full self-sufficiency in Egypt of gasoline and diesel by 2023. The work has been underway since 2016, when the volume of imports reached about 10 million tonnes annually at a cost of $4.5 billion," El Molla said at the Sunday opening ceremony of the Egyptian Refinery Project in the Mostorod area in Greater Cairo, as quoted by the petroleum ministry.

According to El Molla, import rates during 2020 were at 3.5 million tonnes per year, at a cost of $1.5 billion.

The Minister pointed out that there are many factors contributing to gradually achieving self-sufficiency in petroleum products, such as operating new refineries and raising the efficiency of current facilities, rationalising consumption, expanding the national project to convert cars to work on natural gas, and improving the transport network.
