New talks took place on Wednesday afternoon, online, between Cypriot and Israeli technical experts to reach an agreement regarding the shared natural gas field located between the Cypriot field “Aphrodite” and the Israeli “Isaï,” according to information obtained by CNA.

The discussions involved technical experts and legal advisors from both countries, as well as the operating companies of the two gas fields.
The disagreement between the two countries stems from the fact that the natural gas reservoir in the “Aphrodite” offshore block geologically overlaps with the “Isai” field in Israel’s EEZ. The operator of “Aphrodite,” located in Block 12 of the Cypriot EEZ, is the American company Chevron.
