What Energean does

UK-listed oil & gas producer focused on natural gas fields in the Eastern Mediterranean, notably Israel's Karish field.

Sells most gas to Israeli power producers and industrial users under long-term contracts, which gives steadier income than spot sales. Karish began producing in 2022 through a floating production vessel built for the field, turning a development project into an operating business.

In one line: A UK-listed Eastern Mediterranean gas E&P company.
