Delek Group announced Tuesday that its partners in the southwest Tamar exploration well reported strong signs of natural gas were discovered based on logging tests conducted by operator Noble Energy Mediterranean Ltd. 

As of Wednesday, the exploration rig has reached its target depth of 5,340m below sea level. Noble Energy has begun to stabilize and maintain the borehole to enable logging wire-line which may lead to a material change in the estimates, including the estimate of the net layer thickness.
