Israel gas reserves
Olim,

With respect to your note on my talk page: The TAMAR reserves are considered PROVEN reserves (what is also known in the industry as 1P reserves) and are based on both seismological surveys as well as test drills and electrical testing.

The LEVIATHAN prospect on the other hand has had no drilling or electrical tests done and does not at this point represent PROVEN reserves but a mean risk estimate. After those tests are preformed, it will be possible to judge the PROVEN reserves in that prospect in accordance with accepted industry standards, including review by an independent entity (as has been done already for Tamar).

You can find additional information here: http://ir.delek-group.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=160695&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=1433914. Please read the whole article, including the section titled "Follow-up evaluation of natural gas reserves in the Tamar"
