Globes: Israel-Jordan gas export talks halted - report
The Jordanian House of Representatives Energy Committee head says there can be no deal until the gas picture in Israel is clear.
Negotiations on exports of gas from Israel to Jordan have been halted, Jamal Gamouh, president of the Energy Committee of the Jordanian House of Representatives told the Jordanian press. Until the picture in Israel is clarified, Gamouh said, there will be no deal.
Gamouh's statement comes after Israel's antitrust commissioner David Gilo ordered the break-up of the gas monopoly controlled by Delek Group Ltd. and US company Noble Energy, which are the main partners in Israel's two largest gas reserves, Tamar and Leviathan.
