It also reinforces the commitment of many countries to push through ambitious visions and medium-to long-term energy sector strategies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>Upstream gas, power, and petrochem investments reign supreme in Egypt:<\/b> Egypt is expected to prioritize investments in upstream gas and power to meet rising demand, whereas the general trend in the region will see \u201ca greater transition towards gas, downstream and petrochemicals sector, and significant renewable energy additions.\u201d Egypt is also doubling down on investment in petchems, accounting for nearly half of the USD 33 bn in committed investments in the sector across the region. The remaining petrochem investments are concentrated in Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Oman.<\/p>\n<p><b>Where does the private sector fit into all of this?<\/b> \u201cSubstantial output is required from the private sector\u201d to support the development of the energy sector, which \u201cfinds itself competing with governments\u2019 multiple priorities,\u201d Apicorp says. Non-government investments in the energy sector increased to 22% in 2019, while government-led investments have narrowed slightly to 78%, from 80% last year.
