In 2018, Bilfinger Tebodin Middle East Egypt started its business activities with the services of Project Management Consultancy (PMC) for two oil and gas projects. The first project is Sonker Bunkering Company's bulk liquid terminal in Sokhna Port, and the second project is for the Arab Petroleum Pipelines Company (SUMED).
The project includes a fuel oil tank farm with supporting facilities and utilities located on the Suez Gulf, and was inaugurated in November 2019 by President Sisi. The two projects are part of Egypt’s vision of becoming a regional hub for the petroleum and gas trade.
