Field/project development
An earlier deal to double Israel’s gas exports to Egypt led to approval of Leviathan’s Phase 1B expansion by guaranteeing long-term cash flow to finance the project.
Marking a major milestone as the Gulf of Mexico’s second 20K-psi deepwater development, the project underscores how advanced high-pressure technology, management of flow challenges, and the FPS’s role as a regional hub are helping open the door to more Inboard Wilcox development.
