石油设备网讯 据路透社6月2日耶路撒冷报道,以色列德勒克钻井公司(Delek Drilling)一名高管周日表示,该公司希望在本月底开始向埃及销售天然气。
德勒钻井公司和它的合作伙伴诺布尔能源公司在去年初签署了一项里程碑式的协议,内容是从以色列近海油田塔玛尔和利维坦向埃及的一个客户出口价值150亿美元的天然气。以色列官员称这是自1979年与邻国达成和平以来最重要的协议。
合作伙伴随后购买了以色列阿什克伦和埃及阿里什之间的海底环境管理集团管道,以供应运输天然气。
德勒钻井公司副首席执行官约西•格武拉告诉路透社,“我们正在按计划继续对管道进行技术测试,希望我们能够在6月底之前将商业化天然气输送到埃及。”。

Israel's Delek hopes gas exports to Egypt to start in June
Israel's Delek Drilling hopes to begin commercial sales of natural gas to Egypt by the end of the month, a senior company executive said on Sunday.
Delek Drilling and its partner Noble Energy signed a landmark deal early last year to export $15 billion in natural gas from Israeli offshore fields Tamar and Leviathan to a customer in Egypt.Israeli officials called it the most significant deal to emerge since the neighbors made peace in 1979.
The partners then bought into the subsea EMG pipeline between Ashkelon in Israel and El-Arish in Egypt to transport the gas supplies.
"We are continuing the technical testing of the pipeline as planned, and hope we will be able to deliver natural gas commercially to Egypt by the end of June," Yossi Gvura, Delek Drilling's deputy CEO, told Reuters.
