A massive natural gas find off the coast of Haifa which was lauded as capable of fueling all of Israel for 15 years is actually\u00a0more than\u00a060 percent larger than originally estimated, according to the American partner in the drill, Noble Energy Inc.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Israeli companies Isramco Negev 2, Delek Drilling, Avner Oil Exploration, and Dor Gas Exploration had the majority of the stake on the dig \u2013 named Tamar-1 \u2013 which is estimated at a potential of 5 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. That estimate is up from January, at which time the partners believed the well contained 3 trillion cubic feet of gas.<\/p>\n

The team will keep their drilling rig in the area for two more wells they believe may be present as well.
