Energean looking to increase capacity in Israel
Gas producer Energean is looking at options to increase the capacity of its floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel off Israel to 12 billion cubic meters (bcm) a year, CEO Mathios Rigas told Reuters on Thursday.
The FPSO is on track by next year to deliver 8 bcm into the Israeli gas market after the startup of Energean's Karish offshore field last October, which will reach 6.5 bcm capacity by year-end.
Rigas added Energean would focus on increasing production, which is due to rise from a maximum of around 160,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day this year to 200,000 boed by the second half of next year, from its existing portfolio, rather than buying assets.
