This comes after Jordanian Prime Minister Hani Al-Mulki had met Thursday with Egypt’s Petroleum Minister Tarek El-Molla to discuss bilateral cooperation in the field of oil, gas, and energy as well as to explore opportunities for attracting new investments.
The meeting was in the presence of Jordanian Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Ibrahim Saif, Egypt’s ambassador in Jordan Tarek Adel, and Fouad Rashad, chairman of the Jordanian-Egyptian FAJR Company.
