Riad & Riad Advises ExxonMobil in EGAS International Bid Round

Riad and Riad (R&R) has advised ExxonMobil in the 2018 international bid round for gas exploration announced by the Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Corporation (EGAS).

ExxonMobil was announced in February 2019 as one of the winners and was awarded a concession for gas exploration in North East Amereya Offshore. ExxonMobil thereby is marking its first entry into Egypt’s gas upstream sector.

EGAS bid round was dubbed as the largest in its history with five gas exploration concessions awarded including border areas in the Mediterranean Sea as well as land areas in the Nile Delta.

The R&R team was led by partner, Dr. Fatma Salah, who was supported by Senior Associate Heba Elkady and associates Lina Ayman Aboulhassan and Sama Elbaradie.
