MIDOR’s refinery lab capacity to scale up by 60% in Q2

Arab Finance: The Middle East Oil Refinery (MIDOR) is planning to complete the expansion works of its refinery lab to increase its capacity by around 60% in the second quarter (Q2) of 2024, a government official told Al Arabiya Business.

The firm is currently connecting the existing and new refinery units to set the stage for full operation, along with scaling up the refinery capacities to reach 160,000 barrels a day, the official said.

He added that MIDOR would save nearly 25% to 30% of Egypt’s fuel imports within the coming years.

The targeted output of gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel following the expansion will be directed towards the local market to fill in the gap between production and consumption, the official pointed out.
