据路透社2019年1月2日特拉维夫报道，希腊著名油气生产公司Energean周三在雅典宣布，该公司日前已签署一项天然气供应协议，在未来19年里从其卡里什和塔宁大气田向以色列电力供应商I.P.M.Beer Tuvia供应55亿立方米天然气。

这项天然气供应合同将取决于2019年钻探计划的结果，其中包括在以色列钻取4口产气井。

Energean估计，这项天然气供应协议将在合同期内给该公司带来9亿美元的收入。

迄今，Energean已签署每年从卡里什和塔宁大气田出口4.6亿立方米天然气的供应协议，这两个大气田目前正在建设中，天然气年总产能为80亿立方米。Energean的目标是在中期内售出剩余产能。

IPM是一家独立的电力生产商，为以色列国家电网和大型私人用户提供电力。IPM时下正在建设一个新发电厂，预计将在2020年下半年投产。

卡里什和塔宁大气田有望在2021年第一季度开采出第一批天然气。

Energean to supply Israeli power provider IPM with natural gas

Energean Oil and Gas said on Wednesday it has signed an agreement to supply 5.5 billion cubic meters (BCM) of gas from its Karish and Tanin fields over 19 years to I.P.M. Beer Tuvia.

The contract is contingent on results of the 2019 drilling programme, which includes the drilling of four wells in Israel.

Energean estimates the agreement will contribute $900 million in revenue over the life of the contract.

Energean has now signed gas supply agreements for 4.6 BCM annually from Karish and Tanin, which are being built with a total capacity of 8 BCM a year. Energean targets filling the remaining capacity in the medium term.

IPM is an independent power producer that will supply the national grid and large private consumers. It is building a plant that is due to start operating in the second half of 2020.

The Karish and Tanin development remains on track for first gas in the first quarter of 2021.
