  • Hydrogeological and Water Quality Characteristics of the Saturated Zone Beneath the Various Land Uses in the Nile Delta Region, Egypt
    Freshwater Contamination (Proceedings of Rabat Symposium S4, April-May 1997). IAHS Publ. no. 243, 1997 255 Hydrogeological and water quality characteristics of the saturated zone beneath the various land uses in the Nile Delta region, Egypt ISMAIL MAHMOUD EL RAMLY PO Box 5118, Heliopolis West, Cairo, Egypt Abstract The Nile Delta saturated zone lies beneath several land uses which reflect variations in the aquifer characteristics within the delta basin. The present study investigates the scattered rural and urban areas and their environmental impacts on the water quality of the underlying semi-confined and unconfined aquifer systems. The agricultural and industrial activities also affect the groundwater quality located close to the agricultural lands and the various industrial sites, which have started to expand during the last three decades. INTRODUCTION It is believed that the population increase and its direct relation to the expansion of the rural and urban areas in Egypt during the last 30 years has affected the demand for additional water supplies to cover the need of the inhabitants in both areas, which in turn has many consequences for aquifer pollution through the effects of municipal wastewater effluent. The construction of the High Dam caused agricultural expansion by changing the basin irrigation system into a perennial irrigation system. Increase in the application of fertilizers and pesticides has caused the pollution of the surface water bodies which are connected with the aquifer systems in the Nile Delta basin. Industrial activities have much affected the groundwater system below the Nile Delta region due to the increase of the industrial waste effluent dumped into the river without any treatment.

  • Confronting Sea Level Rise on Egypt’S Nile Delta Coast
    Stories from the field Confronting sea level rise on Egypt’s Nile Delta coast The fertility of Egypt’s Nile Delta is of historic significance. Intensive agriculture in the region dates back 5,000 to 6,000 years. Today, nearly half of Egypt’s population lives in the Delta, and the region accounts for some 40% of the country’s agricultural production. In its 2007 assessment, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change declared the Nile Delta one of three sites on earth that are most vulnerable to sea level rise. The Panel projected a global By the average sea level increase of 18 to 59 cm by 2100. Several recent assessments suggest this figure numbers could be much higher. The Delta’s burgeoning population urgently needs to understand the changes under way and make informed choices about managing growth to secure their future against the million* people 19.4 live in the Coastal effects of rising seas. Nile Delta area percent of Egyptian To guide these decisions, a research team linking the Coastal Research Institute of Egypt’s National 40 agricultural Water Research Center, Alexandria University’s Institute of Graduate Studies and Research, and the products come from the Delta Center for Development Services is bringing more precision to where and how Delta communities percent of the are most vulnerable, and assessing cost-effective options to help them prepare.

  • Annaulreport MISR BANK 2004-2005.Pdf
    Mr. Mohamed Kamal El Din Barakat Chairman During the fiscal year 2004/2005, the Egyptian government undertook significant structural reforms to the financial and monetary policies that led to an increase in the GDP (gross domestic product) growth rate to 5.1% compared to 4.2% in the previous year as well as a reduction of the inflation rate to 4.7%. Furthermore, the foreign exchange markets witnessed stability and the monetary reserves of foreign currencies increased to more than $20 Billion. This improvement was reflected upon all market sectors including banking. Consequently, it impacted Banque Misr's financial achievements for this year where total assets had grown by 17.3% to reach L.E 106.8 billion. As for the deposits, they grew by 16.3% to reach L.E 93.2 Billion and the shareholders' equity increased by 2.6% to reach L.E 3.5 Billion. Concerning loans, the total loans portfolio grew by 3.8% to reach L.E 37.8 billion. Furthermore, the bank continued its support for small and micro finance projects by offering credit facilities engaging higher employment rates for economy support. The financial investments increased by 26% to reach L.E. 39.1 Billion. In this context, the Bank's newly introduced investment fund with daily current revenue (day by day account) was highly accepted by the customers. This was reflected by the increase of its net value from L.E. 200 Million on its issuance date during August 2004 to reach more than L.E. 2 Billion by the end of July 2005, the total profits before provisions and taxes increased by 74.3% to reach L.E.

  • Geological and Structural Evaluation on Temsah Gas Field, NE-Offshore Nile Delta, Egypt
    International Journal of Scientific Engineering and Applied Science (IJSEAS) – Volume-4, Issue-7, July 2018 ISSN: 2395-3470 www.ijseas.com Geological and Structural Evaluation on Temsah Gas Field, NE-offshore Nile Delta, Egypt Rashid, A.1, El-Gharabawy, S.2 and Abou Shagar, S.2 1 Belayium petroleum company, Petrobel, Egypt. 2 National Institute of Oceanography and Fisheries, Alexandria, Egypt. Abstract The Nile Delta basin and its facing offshore Mediterranean area represents hydrocarbon–rich province that has hydrocarbon generated from clastic reservoirs ranging in age from Plio–Pleistocene to Early Cretaceous. Morover, the new gas discoveries in the Levantine basin at the eastern Mediterranean (Zohr gas field) open new horizon for further explortation activities. Temsah field is located North-northwest of port said. This study focused on stratigraphic sequences and structural elements that cause facies changes. Series of subsurface isopach maps for the studied formations beside palaeorelief profiles and cross sections were constructed. Structural maps were generated using 2D seismic data. The structure is dissected by strike–slip faults trending NW–SE (Temsah trend) with a downthrow less than 50 m. These faults resulted in a horst, graben and step fault structures within the field area which controls the hydrocarbon accumulations. Paleorelief profiles were incorporated in order to better under stand the paleoevents that control the stratigraphic, geolgical and structural phenomenas in the area.
