Egypt just hit another energy jackpot! 🌍 The Egyptian Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources announced a major oil and gas discovery in the Western Desert’s Abu Sennan field, signaling fresh momentum for the country’s push to become a regional energy powerhouse.
The newly drilled GPR-1X well is pumping out 1,400 barrels of crude oil and 1 million cubic feet of gas daily during tests, with an estimated 2 million recoverable barrels added to Egypt’s reserves. 💰 EGPC Chairman Mohamed Abdel Majeed called the find a “game-changer,” noting AI-powered exploration tech helped crack the code in this mature field. 🤖
But wait—there’s more! 🔍 Early data hints at untapped oil in deeper rock layers, raising hopes for future discoveries. This marks Egypt’s second major Western Desert strike in three months, proving even “old” fields still hold secrets. 🗝️
With massive finds like the Zohr gas field (30 trillion cubic feet!) already boosting its profile, Egypt is doubling down on its dream to be the Middle East’s energy hub. 🌐 Analysts say this tech-savvy approach could rewrite the playbook for global oil exploration. 📈
