UK-based energy company Energean has temporarily suspended production activities on its FPSO located offshore Israel due to the escalation of conflicts with Iran.
On Friday, Israel launched widespread strikes against Iran, which led to immediate retaliation from Iran.
Energean said that it received notice from the Israeli Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure ordering the temporary suspension of production and activities on the 2022-built Energean Power FPSO.
All production activities from the FPSO have been suspended, and the company issued notices to its customers and other stakeholders.
“The safety of Energean’s staff is our top priority. Energean maintains a close dialogue with the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure and other relevant stakeholders to facilitate the safe resumption of production as soon as possible,” the company said.
