According to information from our website, after the end of the 6rd Round of Licensing for plots 8, 10 and 2, and after the discovery of "Zor" in the EEZ of Egypt and the new geological interpretation in relation to the deposits, which are associated with the creation of the submarine term of "Eratosthenes", the interest falls on plot XNUMX, which seems to hide significant reserves of hydrocarbons.
In the Ayia Napa marina the mining companies?
Changes are also expected in the transfer of gas extraction companies from the port of Lemos to the marina of Ayia Napa and its gradual conversion into a commercial port. The thriller about the transfer of investors seems to have no end, as the claimants (Limassol and Larnaca) seem to be losing ground, after the important discoveries of hydrocarbons on plot 2.
