Energean Wins Israeli Case

Energean Oil and Gas said July 5 that the Israeli Supreme Court, sitting as the High Court of Justice, unanimously dismissed the petition filed on September 14 2017 by two environmental groups against Energean and the petroleum commissioner, the  energy ministry, the ministry of environmental protection and the  finance ministry in connection with the Karish-Tanin Development.

These proceedings constituted the sole outstanding court proceedings against Energean in Israel, it said.

Energean is planning to deliver gas to the Israeli market from the Karish-Tanin Development in 2021, and is on track with its project milestones to achieve this timeline.
