Egypt says maritime agreement with Greece allows more oil, gas exploration
August 9, 2020 12:16 pm

Egypt’s Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources on Saturday said that the new maritime border demarcation agreement with Greece would allow for more bids to be launched regarding oil and gas exploration in the Mediterranean.

The ministry’s spokesperson Hamdy Abdel-Aziz said that Egypt and Greece are members in the Eastern Mediterranean Gas Forum, which will be leveled into an international organization. (guess who isn't a member)

During a phone-in with Ahmed Moussa’s TV show “Ala Massoulity” (By My Responsibility), Abdel-Aziz stated that had the borders not been demarcated, Egypt would not have been able to conduct oil explorations.

He explained that the border demarcation process grants the government the right to launch international bids such as the demarcation of maritime borders with Cyprus, after which Egypt was able to launch global bids in the economic zone which led to the discovery of the Zohr field.

The volume of gas reserves in the Mediterranean is 300 trillion cubic feet, Aziz added, stressing that international expertise confirms that the Mediterranean’s waters are rich in petroleum products.

Egypt and Greece signed an agreement on Thursday to define an exclusive economic zone between them.
The Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs claimed that the agreement to demarcate the maritime borders between Egypt and Greece covers a region that is part of the Turkish continental shelf.

It added that Turkey considers this agreement a violation of Libyan maritime rights as well.

The UAE and Bahrain on Friday welcomed the agreement to demarcate the maritime borders between Egypt and Greece, establishing an exclusive economic zone between them.

Yep, war in the ME, which may well spread, is on the wind... One can but hope that it will be constrained to the area, but no bets... I remember reading Alas, Babylon when it was first published. I knew too many military that were in, or had been deployed to the Med. It was too great a possiblty to be waved off... Only three years earlier, the Israeli's had whipped the Egyptians in the 1956 war... Since then, it's always had the potential to cook-off. I was 9 when it was published, and things were very real to military families back then...

Bright Blessings, northern watch,

Looks like people need to pray for peace, while preparing for war, and it's unforseen consequences... Earth is out of balance, and Mankind is losing it's collective mind...

May You and Yours Always Be Safe, Healthy, Happy, and Forever, Free...

Guns of August in the "Age of the JDAM"....this definitely won't end in the manner those that started it think it will.....

Good Morning, and Bright Blessings, Sir!

IF you were a betting man, who would "win" the possible fracas? Do the Greeks and Egyptians stand a chance? Or, will Erdogan rule all but Israel?

Thanks for your input.

IMHO I think Erdogan and his clique have bitten off more than they can chew.

That doesn’t mean it will be one sided when it kicks off, there will be plenty of SoS to go around without benefit of Tabasco.....

Housecarl you have my utmost thanks. You, and The Brain Trust, are better at acquiring and diseminating honest information, than any MSM outlet. When you, and your peers speak, it behooves the wise to listen- very carefully. You don't sugarcoat anything, nor do you dissemble. If the world were such, the Universe would be much better.

Again, Sir, Thank-You!

Blessed Be,
