Chevron Mediterranean Limited and its partners have made a Final Investment Decision (FID) to expand the Leviathan natural gas field. This major development targets increased production capacity offshore Israel.

The expansion plan includes drilling three new offshore wells. It also requires upgrading underwater and processing facilities located on the Leviathan platform. This development is projected to increase the annual gas supply to approximately 21 billion cubic meters.

Chevron expects the expanded capacity to come online toward the end of the decade. The project aims to increase the reliable supply of gas for Israel and the surrounding region, supporting energy security across the Eastern Mediterranean.
