Natural gas is a new guest on the Israeli landscape. Following significant discoveries in the Tamar and Leviathan reservoirs in 2009 and 2010 - respectively, there is a debate surrounding gas in Israel. If the projections for the potential quantities are realized, the discovery of the gas will place Israel in the 92nd place in terms of proven natural gas reserves among the world's countries. These are potential reserves of about 2000 billion cubic meters of gas spread over seven reservoirs (of which about 20% - in the Tamar and Leviathan reservoirs), which will satisfy the needs of the Israeli economy for at least the next three decades.
