总部位于伦敦、在特拉维夫上市的独立公司 Energean 在宣布其最终投资决定时表示，将向以色列沿海的 Katlan 项目投资 12 亿美元。
该项目预计将于 2027 年上半年开始生产天然气。Energean 表示，此次生产将补充现有的天然气销售协议，并将瞄准国际市场。
Katlan 油田是 Energean 于 2022 年发现的。它由位于以色列地中海沿岸 Karish 和 Tanin 两个项目附近的一组油藏组成。该公司在其网站上表示，这些油藏含有 1.10 万亿立方英尺（311.5 亿立方米）的已探明和可能的天然气储量。
据路透社报道，以色列能源和基础设施部已授予 Energean 卡特兰核电站 30 年的租约。
London-based, Tel Aviv-listed independent Energean will invest $1.2 billion in the Katlan project off the coast of Israel, the company said in announcing its final investment decision.
The project is expected to begin producing gas in the first half of 2027. Energean said the production will complement existing gas sales agreements and will target international markets.
The Katlan field was discovered by Energean in 2022. It consists of a group of reservoirs located near two projects off the Mediterranean coast of Israel, Karish and Tanin. The deposits contain 1.10 trillion cubic feet (31.15 billion cubic meters) of proven and probable gas reserves, the company said on its website.
Israel’s Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure has granted Energean a 30-year lease for the Katlan site, Reuters reports.
