"Off the Israeli coast there are enormous natural gas resources, we are talking about Leviathan, one of the largest gas fields in the world in the Mediterranean Sea", said the President of FederPetroli Italia Michele Marsiglia following the conflict that is sweeping the Palestinian and Israeli territories.

Marseille continues “We can talk about religion, occupied territories and other variables between the two peoples but for years the interest has been focused on the exploitation of offshore mineral resources. By exploiting the huge gas basin, both Israel and the Palestinian territories could achieve energy independence and at the same time become exporters of the gas extracted and produced. Geographically, the area overlooking the Mediterranean Sea is closely linked to the Gaza Strip. If even the area of ​​land under the control of the Palestinian Authority were able to find financial funds from other Arab countries for the exploitation of resources, in just one year both the Strip and the West Bank area would no longer need Israel. for its energy needs, considering that today the Strip lives on alternating current during the day. We are talking about 50 kilometers of area in extension of the reservoir in deep waters at about 1.500 meters ”.

"There is gas for over 50 years of autonomy, Leviathan in full production of hydrocarbon would upset the trade balance of the Middle East" concludes Marseille.
