Raven gas field is one of those fields which GASCO (the Egyptian natural gas company) decided to procure, construct and operate a new gas pipeline to transfer rich gas from Raven gas field in north Alexandria to the western desert gas complex (WDGC) and Amreya Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) plant in Alexandria. The extracted gas will be transported through a new gas pipeline, hereunder named ‘’the project’’, with 70 km length and 30’’ inch diameter to WDGC and 5 km length 18” inch diameter to Amreya LPG. The proposed project will be funded from the World Bank(WB) by the excess of fund from the south-helwan project (due to a change in scope of south helwan project, there is loan saving of US$ 74.6 m which GASCO decided to employ it in the proposed project).

    Survey of Plant Parasitic Nematode Associated with Spinach, Swiss Chard and Table Beet in North Egypt 1 Ayman B. A. Basyony , Ibrahim K. A. Ibrahim 1 Sabreen M. A. Zeyadah1, and Maha A. I. Kawanna 1 (Ibrahim and El-Sharkawy, 2001; Ibrahim et al., 2000; ABSTRACT 2010). Many of these nematodes especially A nematode survey was conducted in Alexandria, El- Helicotylenchus spp., Hoplolaimus spp., Meloidogyne Behera, El-Gharbia, El-Monufia and Kafr El-Sheikh spp., Pratylenchus spp., Rotylenchulus reniformis, governorates in northern Egypt during the 2017 – 2019 Tylenchorhynchus spp., Tylenchulus semipenetrans and cropping seasons to study the occurrence, population Xiphinema spp. are considered limiting factors in crop density and host association of plant parasitic nematodes production in Egypt (Adam et al., 2013; Korayem et al., associated with spinach, Swiss chard and table beet. A 2014; Ibrahim and Handoo, 2015; Ibrahim et al., 2010). total of 854 soil and root samples were collected from the rhizosphere of the surveyed vegetable crops. The surveyed Also, the practice of continuous cropping and use of governorates and their respective numbers of soil samples local plant cultivars favor survival and rapid build-up of were as follows: Alexandria 230, El-Behera 206, El- nematode populations in the soil. Information Gharbia 138, El-Monufia 211 and Kafr El-Sheikh 69 concerning the occurrence and distribution of the genera samples. Plant parasitic nematodes in the collected soil and and species of phytoparasitic nematodes in Egypt is root samples were extracted, identified, and counted under very important as several of the serious nematode the compound light microscope. The collected soil and root pathogens, i.e.
