LNG

Delek Group of Israel, the company with stakes in the giant Leviathan field in the Eastern Mediterranean set to come on stream in 2020, said it was one of the bidders for UK North Sea oil and natural gas assets being sold by Chevron Corp. of the US.

Marathon Oil Corp. of the US said it achieved first natural gas production through its new Alba field offshore compression platform in the waters of Equatorial Guinea, expanding the life-span of the West African nation’s LNG export plant.
