Story details
Egypt’s petroleum minister and Arcius Energy’s chief executive discussed the company’s Egyptian portfolio in Athens, the ministry reported on 7 October 2026. The review included exploration, appraisal and development.
The talks covered plans to accelerate the start of production at the Harmattan gas field. Arcius also described a goal of increasing its Egyptian production during 2027–2030.
The ministry report supplies no field production volume, start date or investment amount. The 2027–2030 period is a company growth aim, not a confirmed production forecast or result.
The update is a planning discussion. Further development decisions and operational disclosures are needed to establish when Harmattan may produce and at what rate.
