PETROLEUM MINISTER TO REVISE ENERGY SUBSIDIES 

Source: Zawya, April 19, 2010 

A senior government official indicated that the Prime Minister has asked the Minister of Petroleum to 

present several scenarios involving a reduction in subsidies on energy products within one month for 

review by the Cabinet, reported Al-Masry Al-Youm. 

The objective of the request is to reduce the size of energy subsidies, which are expected to reach LE 

62 billion in the fiscal year, around 80 percent of total subsides in the budget. 

Diesel is currently subsidized by LE17.5 billion, or 52 percent of energy subsidies, butane gas by LE 7.7 

billion or 23 percent of energy subsidies, gasoline by LE5.7 billion or 17 percent of energy subsidies and

lists and those prepped for export were the same. This, he said, was in order to combat smuggling.
