In the year when Egypt is hosting COP27, this agreement is even more vital as it helps to ensure energy security, not only for Egypt, but beyond its borders to the rest of the world where Damietta LNG exports to."

Damietta LNG will also benefit from Mitsubishi Power's comprehensive warranties and extended service support, to enhance and drive performance and efficiency.
