Shell, Kufpec sanction West Mina subsea tieback offshore Egypt

Shell affiliate BG International and partner Kufpec have taken FID on developing the Mina West gas discovery in the Egyptian sector of the Mediterranean Sea.

Shell will operate the field, with the partners working in collaboration with Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Co. (EGAS).

Mina West, discovered in October 2023, will be tied back using subsea facilities to infrastructure serving other fields in the West Delta Deep Marine (WDDM) concession, with production sent to Egypt’s domestic gas market.
