Delek Group, Delek Israel’s parent company, is involved in extraction of natural gas from disputed maritime areas. The Group, in partnership with Noble Energy, was involved in extracting gas from the Noa field and the Mari-B field, discovered in 1999 and 2000 respectively, which border Palestinian territorial waters.

Delek Group was part of a conglomerate of companies who discovered the Leviathan and Tamar natural gas fields in the Mediterranean field. Delek Group, through its fully owned subsidiary Delek Drilling LP, holds 22.7% interest in the drilling at the Leviathan field. Leviathan is located approximately 81 miles off Haifa. Both fields are within close proximity to disputed maritime areas with Lebanon.
