Arab Finance: Egypt has been selected to lead the International Gas Union (IGU) for the 2028-2031 term under the presidency of Khaled AbuBakr, as per a press release.

Egypt will also host the 31st World Gas Conference (WGC) in 2031, marking the first time for an African and Middle Eastern country to win the IGU presidency and host the WGC.

“Our future vision for the energy sector is centered on three main objectives: strengthening energy security by enhancing gas infrastructure in underserved areas, ensuring affordability by bolstering the industry’s resilience to price volatility, and advancing sustainability through enabling investments in green hydrogen, e-methanol, and greener fuels to lower emissions,” Abu Bakr said.
