The petroleum market has faced significant challenges leading to its collapse due to a combination of factors, including a steep decline in global demand caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical tensions, and an oversupply of crude oil. Additionally, the transition to renewable energy and increasing environmental regulations have shifted investor focus away from fossil fuels. Furthermore, price wars among major oil-producing nations exacerbated the situation, resulting in an unprecedented drop in oil prices.

According to the statistics I made due to such online markets, Egypt's main exports consist of natural gas, and non-petroleum products such as ready-made clothes, cotton textiles, medical and petrochemical products, citrus fruits, rice and dried onion, and more recently cement, steel, and ceramics.
There was a time when the organization called OPEC, was a group of oil producing nations that were almost always in agreement regarding the amount of petroleum that would be produced and what the price per barrel of oil would be. This is no longer a factor in the price and production of petroleum. Currently, it can be said that the free market now makes these decisions.
