The Egyptian Ministry of Petroleum decreased the its natural gas exports to Jordan to around 300 million standard cubic feet per day (mmscf/d), compared to 350 mmscf/d in March, a source at the Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Company (EGAS) told Al Borsa News.
Jordan dropped the amounts of natural gas it needed to between 290 mmscf/d and 300 mmscf/d, which led to the decrease in Egypt’s gas exports, the source noted.
The contract between both countries is flexible, as the exported amounts change according to the available Egyptian natural gas after meeting local demands and the Jordanian needs, the source stated.
Egypt had recently resumed exporting natural gas to Jordan with interchangeable amounts in order to cover the demands of its power plants.
