Israel Renews Gas Exploration, Expects Export Deal to Europe
(Reuters) Israel is renewing offshore natural gas exploration with a view toward exporting gas to Europe, Israel's Energy Minister Karine Elharrar said Monday. She has instructed the ministry to prepare a new round of tenders for gas exploration off Israel's Mediterranean coast. Gas will be sent to Egypt through an expanded pipeline network for liquefication and then shipped to Europe. Other options, like the long-discussed Eastmed pipeline connecting Israeli gas fields directly with Europe, are also under consideration.
