Egypt's MOPCO, the country's largest nitrogen producer, said its operations continue uninterrupted despite reports of a 20% cut in natural gas supplies to fertilizer plants. The company is adjusting output to available gas but did not confirm whether the cut applied to its facilities.
Gas curtailments at Egyptian urea plants could tighten urea supply for export markets, particularly Europe, which would support urea prices. The company's statement suggests the immediate impact is unconfirmed.
