石油设备网讯 据美国彭博新闻社2月19日特拉维夫报道，以色列最大气田的合作伙伴美国诺布尔能源公司和以色列德勒克钻井公司19日在特拉维夫宣布，他们签署了一项150亿美元的协议向埃及的Dolphinus控股公司出口天然气。
诺布尔和德勒克在一份声明中说，他们计划在未来的10年里从以色列的塔马尔大气田和列维坦大气田向这家埃及控股公司供应640亿立方米天然气。
他们说，这项天然气出口协议还需要获得以色列和埃及政府和监管部门的批准。
在与埃及签署这项协议以前，两家公司在2016年还与约旦签署了同样天然气出口协议，这两项协议有望使得诺布尔及其以色列合作伙伴成为地区重要天然气出口商。尽管在如何向埃及输送天然气问题上仍存在重大障碍，但协议的签署表明以色列及其邻国正在加强双边关系，因为他们都寻求从近年来的重大天然气发现中获益。

Noble, Delek sign $15-billion deal to export Israel gas to Egypt
Noble Energy Inc. and Delek Drilling-LP, the lead partners in Israel’s largest gas fields, said they signed a $15 billion agreement to export gas to Egypt’s Dolphinus Holdings.
The energy producers plan to supply around 64 Bcm of natural gas from the Tamar and Leviathan reservoirs for a 10-year period, the companies said in an emailed statement. The export deal needs regulatory and government approvals in Israel and Egypt, they said.
The deal with Egypt follows an agreement with Jordan in 2016 and puts Houston-based Noble and its Israeli partners on track to become regional exporters. Substantial obstacles still remain such as how to transmit the gas to Egypt, but the agreement suggests Israel and its neighbors are bolstering their ties as they seek to benefit from large discoveries in recent years.
