原标题：以色列大型气田将于12月23日投产

    中国石化新闻网讯 据今日油价网站12月19日消息 以色列能源部周四表示，以色列最大的天然气田利维坦预计将于周一开始生产。

    运营商诺布尔能源的一位高级官员12月初表示，利维坦计划在三周内开始向当地市场供应天然气，并在此后不久开始向埃及和约旦出口天然气，这是以色列和东地中海能源格局的一个重大里程碑。

    2010年发现的利维坦以及过去10年在以色列近海发现的其他油田，如Tamar、Karish和Tanin，有望帮助以色列实现能源独立。

    以色列将很快开始向埃及出口天然气。这两个国家自1979年签署和平条约以来，今年已经40年，近年来在天然气工业方面取得了有意义的进展，并正在竞争成为东地中海的下一个能源中心。

    以色列能源部长Yuval Steinitz本周早些时候签署了从以色列向埃及出口天然气的必要许可证。

    Yuval Steinitz说：“以色列历史上第一次成为能源出口国，这是以色列和埃及签署和平条约以来最重要的经济合作。”。

    Israel’s Massive Gas Field To Start Producing On December 23

    Israel’s biggest natural gas field, Leviathan, is expected to begin production on Monday, the Israeli energy ministry said on Thursday, after a Jerusalem court rescinded an injunction that it had granted two days earlier over emissions concerns.

    A senior official at operator Noble Energy said at the beginning of December that Leviathan was set to begin gas supply to the local market within three weeks and to start exports to Egypt and Jordan shortly after that, in a major milestone for the energy landscape in Israel and the Eastern Mediterranean.

    Leviathan—discovered in 2010—together with other fields discovered offshore Israel in the past decade such as Tamar, Karish, and Tanin, is expected to help Israel become energy independent.

    Israel is set to soon begin natural gas exports to Egypt. The two countries, which mark this year 40 years since signing a peace treaty in 1979, have made meaningful advances in their natural gas industries in recent years and are competing to become Eastern Mediterranean’s next energy hub.

    Israel’s Energy Minister Yuval Steinitz signed earlier this week the necessary permits for exporting natural gas from Israel to Egypt.

    “Israel, for the first time in its history, has become an energy exporter - this is the most significant economic cooperation between Israel and Egypt since the peace treaty between the two states was signed,” Steinitz said.
