Offshore Gaza: Gas In Deep-Water Sedimentary Reservoir Rocks as Another Element in the Conflict

Headline:  Energean Selects Halliburton for Offshore Israel Drilling

“The conflict between the Israeli state and the Palestinian people revolves not only around the control of land but also extends to the ocean, particularly the sedimentary rocks beneath the seafloor (see oil and natural gas fields in the region in Figure 1). This article aims to analyze the geological aspect, specifically sedimentary rocks with hydrocarbon reservoir potential offshore the Gaza Strip, within the context of the ongoing tragic developments in the region, … The control of gas resources adds complexity to the Israel-Palestine conflict. Israel’s gas power, fueled by discoveries like Tamar and Leviathan, contrasts with Gaza’s challenges. The occupation hinders Palestinian development in the Gaza Marine area, forcing reliance on imported energy.     Despite significant gas discoveries in 2002, like “Gaza Marine” and “Border Field,” disputes and pricing issues have stalled progress.     The Gaza gas project could bring economic and environmental gains, reducing dependence on imports. However, disputes and lack of cooperation make tapping these resources for Gazans unlikely in the current state of the Israel-Palestine conflict.    … The Levant Basin, spanning the Eastern Mediterranean’s offshore areas, is estimated to contain 1.7 billion barrels of oil and a staggering 122 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of natural gas.     While global contributions from the Eastern Mediterranean are modest, recent offshore discoveries in Israel and Cyprus underscore the transformative potential of the region. Offshore Gaza, within the promising Levant Basin, has become a focal point for potential hydrocarbon discoveries, shifting attention from historically overshadowed neighbouring basins like the Nile Delta and Western Arabian Province.      The control of gas resources adds complexity to the Israel-Palestine conflict.

The Palestinian Genocide quarantines that Israel will control the off shore oil formally controlled by Gaza. Imperialism and Israel will both profit from the Palestinian Genocide!
