The opening as it read in 2010

Tamar gas field is a natural gas field in the Mediterranean sea off the coast of Israel , discovered in 2009 . The gas field is located roughly 50 miles west of Haifa in waters 5,500 feet deep. The initial well, Tamar-1 , was drilled to a total depth of 16,076 feet/5 000 meters.¹ The deposits contains 6 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.² Production is expected to begin in 2012 . At the time of discovery the Tamar gas field was the largest organic find ever discovered in the under-explored area of the Mediterranean Sea, and the largest discovery in the history of Noble Energy. Noble Energy operates Tamar with a 36% working interest; Isramco Negev 2 holds 28.75%; Delek Drilling holds 15.63 %; Avner Oil Exploration holds 15.63%; and Dor Gas Exploration holds the remaining 4%. Lebanon authorities said it was not clear whether the basin fell only under Israel's waters, and stated that it is possible that the basin extends to Lebanese waters. This was denied by Delek Drilling , one of the partners in the U.S.-Israeli consortium. "An examination made with the Petroleum Commissioner showed that these claims are not correct and the location of the license where Tamar 1 is being drilled was studied carefully and it was found that the entire area of the license was within territorial waters of the state of Israel," it said in a statement. Delek Group chairman Gabi Last added, "The border of Israel's exclusive economic zone waters passes to the north of the Tamar oil drilling, and significantly so." Lebanese Shi'a Islamist group Hizbullah claims that that the Dalit and Tamar gas field belongs to Lebanon and warned Israel against extracting gas from them. Marine law expert Amir Cohen-Dor said that the Dalit and Tamar gas fields are within Israel's contiguous economic zone, and that under the 1982 UN Law of the Sea Convention, Israel can exploit resources in its economic zone. In addition to negotiating with Israel Electric Corporation (IEC), Delek Energy has held talks on exporting natural gas from Tamar to Cyprus .

The Tamar gas field is a natural gas field in the Mediterranean Sea off the coast of Israel . The field is located in Israel's exclusive economic zone , roughly 80 kilometres (50 mi) west of Haifa in waters 1,700 metres (5,600 ft) deep. While there have been small oil and gas discoveries in Israel over the decades, Tamar was the first large-scale hydrocarbon resource discovered in the country. It was also the first gas discovery made in geological layers dating back to the Oligo – Miocene era in the up-until-then little-explored Levant basin of the Eastern Mediterranean. Since Tamar's discovery in 2009, large gas discoveries have been made in other analogous geological formations of the same age in the region. Since Tamar was the first such discovery, these gas containing formations have become collectively known as Tamar sands .

The field is located in Israel's exclusive economic zone , roughly 80 kilometres (50 mi) west of Haifa in waters 1,700 metres (5,600 ft) deep. The Tamar field is considered to have proven reserves of 200 billion cubic metres (7.1 trillion cubic feet) of natural gas, while the adjoining Tamar South field has 23 billion cubic metres (810 billion cubic feet). Together, they may have an additional 84 BCM of "probable" reserves and up to 49 BCM of "possible" reserves (reserves having a 10% probability of extraction). At the time of discovery, Tamar was the largest find of gas or oil in the Levant basin of the Eastern Mediterranean Sea and the largest discovery by Noble Energy . Since Tamar's discovery, large gas discoveries have been made in other analogous geological formations dating back to the Oligocene – Miocene epoch in the Levant basin. Because Tamar was the first such discovery, these gas containing formations have become collectively known as Tamar sands .
