埃及打破国内天然气市场垄断格局

中国石化新闻网讯 据彭博社8月8日开罗报道,埃及已允许私人公司参与天然气的供应,结束了该国政府的垄断格局,以通过推进改革,激励投资并振兴经济。 埃及总统阿卜杜勒-法塔赫・塞西签署新法律后,设立了一个天然气监管机构,负责审核经营许可和拟定市场开放后的竞争计划。此外,新规还允许私人公司进口天然气,这将有助于消除制约企业发展的资源供应短缺问题。 法律允许私营公司使用管道和网络基础设施直接运输,储存,销售和交易天然气。根据官方公报,其执行条例将在立法颁布后六个月内发布。 埃及投资银行Pharos Holding首席分析师Radwa El-Swaify称,“这项法律有效地缓解了政府负担,其从必须满足日益飙升的天然气需求的供应方,转变成监管方。在埃及,经济改革的大方向是使得市场更为自由化”。 章盈盈 摘译自 彭博社 原文如下: Egypt moves to end state monopoly of natural gas market Egypt is opening the door to private participation in its natural gas sector, moving to end the state’s monopoly as it pushes ahead with reforms meant to encourage investment and revive the economy. The new law signed by President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi sets up a natural gas regulatory authority charged with licensing and devising a plan to open the gas market to competition. It also allows for the eventual import of natural gas by private companies — a move that could help end supply shortages that have hampered businesses. The law would allow the private sector to directly ship, transport, store, market and trade natural gas using the pipeline and network infrastructure. Its executive regulations are to be issued within six months of the legislation’s enactment, according to the Official Gazette. “This law effectively relieves the government from the burden of providing for the rapidly growing natural-gas consumption and turns it into a regulator,” said Radwa El-Swaify, head of research at Cairo-based Pharos Holding. “It’s all part of the same direction of having freer markets in Egypt.”
