Isramco, Mubadala Energy eye potential $20B natural gas export deal with Egyptian counterpart

Arab Finance: Isramco and UAE-based Mubadala Energy are planning a new long-term natural gas export agreement with an Egyptian counterpart for a potential $20 billion, according to a statement.

As per an Isramco filing to the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE) on July 16, the two companies signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding (MoU) with a foreign customer to supply 80 billion cubic meters (bcm) of natural gas from the Tamar offshore field over the 2031-2038 period. The agreement could extend into the 2040s.

Isramco holds a 28.75% stake in the 13.7 trillion cubic feet (tcf) Tamar gas field, while Mubadala Energy owns 11%.

Other Tamar partners, including operator Chevron, which holds a 25% stake, Tamar Petroleum, with a 16.75% interest, Union Energy, holding a 14.5% stake, and Dor Gas, with an interest of 4%, may eventually join the proposed agreement, although none has publicly confirmed participation.
