Infrastructure for the Transmission of Natural Gas to Upper Egypt: Natural Gas Pipeline

Project Description

The project included part of the preliminary studies for extending a high-pressure pipeline to transport natural gas from 6th of October City to Assuit.
The pipeline, owned by Wadi El-Nile for Natural Gas Company, is a part of SETI project. With a diameter of 36 inch, the pipeline main route extends for 470 km; with two branches (70 km each) allocated to transfer the natural gas to a company manufacturing sugar and another one manufacturing cement.
The pipeline pressure is preserved at 70 bar to be consistent with the pressure of the natural gas network.
