What Egypt Gas does

Egypt Gas (Egyptian Stock Exchange: EGAS) is Egypt's largest natural gas distribution company, founded in 1983 and headquartered in Cairo. State-affiliated under Egypt's Ministry of Petroleum, the company holds 13 exclusive concession areas across Egypt and operates an installed base of 38,783 km of distribution networks, 1,693 km of high-pressure steel pipelines (up to 70 bar), 172 pressure reduction stations, and 85,280 km of residential installation pipes. It serves more than 4.5 million customers — 6,675,937 residential, 8,722 commercial, and 1,465 industrial — and has converted 9.84 million appliances from LPG/butane to natural gas.

The company's core offerings span natural gas distribution services, engineering-procurement-construction (EPC) project execution for gas and petroleum infrastructure, and ongoing operation-and-maintenance (O&M) of gas networks within its concession areas. Technology assets include proprietary GIS systems for network mapping and emergency operations, an EGAC-accredited calibration laboratory meeting ISO/IEC 17025:2005, SCADA-based network monitoring, and in-house manufacturing of pressure reduction stations, regulators, and gas appliance components. The firm holds ISO 9001, 14001, 45001, 50001, and 27001 certifications and is led by Chairman Mohamed Hassan Kandil.

Egypt Gas earns revenue through four primary streams: regulated distribution commissions (EGP 0.10/m³ for household/commercial, EGP 0.15/m³ for industrial), one-time EPC project contracts (primarily for sister petroleum sector companies including Petrobel, GUPCO, SUCO, and Khalda), recurring O&M and 24/7 emergency services, and transaction fees for new gas connections and appliance conversions. Distribution is conducted directly through 34 customer service centers and field sales teams. Beyond Egypt, the company operates a branch in Jordan (Amman) and is establishing branches in Abu Dhabi (UAE), Muscat (Oman), and Saudi Arabia, with strategic partnership activity in Niger as of January 2026.
