Sherif Sousa, Ganope's chairman, further said that his company had launched a new international tender for oil and gas exploration in ten areas in south of Gulf of Suez and Western Desert, as the country seeks to boost investment in the key energy sector. Receiving offers will be valid until the end of November 2016, he added.
The winners of the five new oil and gas concessions are from U.S., Canada, Malaysia, Britain, and Egypt, Sousa added.
