in 1909. the there were not sure i'll guess fields in the eastern mediterranean of the coast of gaza met pipeline is an ambitious plan to explore than any old 28 of the original question you know with all of the other hey if you say how do you dream e.g. if you train a month apart i don't know folk i'm sure your opinion unless you can double must do not if you should try it but you hope to meet mr st he said the hagerty yes what

that will be a team immediately back this up but the people of that eastern mediterranean area at the levantine basin the report tells us it has quite a lot of gas in there and not all that has been discovered yet. but remember why that the. sun or play of which you can be a fool from. the shop would also have a. look down at the actors of that as a pilot no that was about you know what i've done let me at the mystic. of the formal announcement of the gaza guys field in 1900 former palestinian president yasser arafat's describe the new discovery as a gift from god to the palestinian people. palestinians actually found gas off the coast years decades before israel has found its own guns so the person has

discovered gas and rain in 1990 and at the time the palestinian leader yasser arafat viewed that as a win change that could absolutely change the economy within the palestinian territories and i love the palestinians to have energy independence and some form of sovereignty. so what do. into wrong. at one point yes or arafat had this vision of making gaza into a singapore rate i mean you could see how if if the gas could be produced and it could be exported and i do think it could be exported because there are many l. and g. plants nearby for example in egypt where this gas could be liquefied and then exported the way that israeli gas is going to be liquefied and exported the way that egyptian gas is already liquefied exported it would make a huge difference but it doesn't revenues from offshore oil and gas can be an important source of revenue for a future state of palestine they can help in its development by helping to fund

infrastructure or to offset the government budget. guzzle of it is that only men in the us of the palestinian side saw what the solar energy this is. the deposit which was 4000000000. dollars so it's a lot of money not in one use but what's in them to 15 used the vellum and life of the food the benefits could have been enormous look at the rest of the region look at qatar and look at israel look at cyprus they've all discovered gas and they're all now sort of thinking they're going to be the next you know wealthy rich gas gas country meanwhile gazan people in gaza just sit with the gas out in the ocean it's exactly as if you were somebody who didn't have any food to eat and you had a feast put in front of you and you were told you're not able to eat the space it's it's it's pretty much a ludicrous and basically the palestinians in gaza right now are energy dependent

meanwhile off their coast they have have gas that could make them energy rich so if gaza was able to exploit its own gas which is just literally you know kilometers out from the coastline then maybe people in gaza wouldn't have to be in darkness. i am terminal miss held back and i'm asking why this gas has not been exploited for 20 years and why such a major story has received relatively little media attention. while we were making this film we obtained the comments exclusively that reveal the official and unofficial correspondence between the palestinian authority there be a and the other bodies involved in the negotiations over gaza's gas.

the geological surveys suggested that this gas was good the quality and the freel value and was within easy reach of gaza score supplying. the words with. a woman that the then is of. less than he heard. when. in 1906 eastern mediterranean countries were struggling to get hold of gaza's at all. palestinian engineer smile miss howes who was the 1st to suggest that gas under the sea but of gaza. l.

mishan had years of oil and gas experience gained in libya qatar and iraq and conducted surveys into a potential gaza gas field. i missed hal was there be a is there richter of natural and mineral resources and the road to yasser arafat in december $1095.00 to propose a gas and mineral abridged of gaza are afforded usually do they gated elma's how to make contact with international gas companies to establish the through nature of the gas resources. in. the fall is the model and what came of money. i'll miss howes activity attracted regional international and internal palestinian attention. that.

it is not. they're betting that. the. heck a. paper that that. to develop the guys feed the palestinian authority decided to do an exclusive deal with the british gas. it would have been normal business a practice to invite international tenders to encourage competition and to get the best deal for gaza and the palestinians. say the army i asked why he thought the palestinian authority decided to do the british gas deal. either to walk in on that. sort of or going to talk and yet the word. yet if we're not home yet it will be him where the all fall. journalists. will

also let us on and her and looked up with. my own father at the start of. the project known as gaza marine took this unusual day addiction right to from the start what's more it emerged that in public it's made him miss how was told to negotiate with the british gas but behind the scenes other palestinian authority members were holding syd barrett secret negotiations with the same company but under different conditions. larry that was clear in. that i had no. back then the friend. that we had back at home yeah. when you follow what i like you have. then your who would get. home i can

have a feel good or bad or whatever up above but. on the 19th of october 1909 the palestinian authority that be a signed a contract with the british gas. but the deal terms it contained for all 4 signatories were quite controversial. the contract said that the british guys would receive 60 percent of the gather even use verve a consolidated contractors' company c.c.c. would get 30 percent but verver palestine investment fund would get only 10 percent . the palestinian authority also gave the developers exclusive frights for the discovery exhibition and marketing of the oil and gas in the gaza offshore area. what the 3 got further can to oversee was

a very close. which said that the palestinians were obliged to inform israel of any oil and gas exploration and the production in the palestinian territories. this contract was never submitted to the palestinian legislative council or published in local newspapers. but yasser arafat signed the contract. as did my head a mussy then minister of economy and a trade and how to be some sort then a chairman. of the palestinian petroleum with 30. i know and the. fact. is either that or i called both model muscly and had to be some sort to ask for more details.

we did send a message but unfortunately he didn't reply. what . sort of. a letter would that sort of. mean. in a climate of how. it british gas is now owned by real dutch and asked them to comment on the negotiations and contract with the b.

this is chill could not advice on our questions above that in 2018 it had reached an agreement with the palestine investment fund the p.i.a.f. to divest its entire interests and operate a ship in the gaza marine license offshore palestine. then you are called has been working at the middle east since to 2014 when i was working on this investigation 2015 the palestinian authority didn't seem to want to talk to me about this topic i called up several different places i called up the palestinian vestment fund and i tried to figure out who was in charge of this file even i i had trouble even finding out who was in charge of the gas strategy my sense of why they didn't want to talk to me as a couple of sources told me this this topic is very sensitive you know it's very touchy don't touch it nobody's going to want to talk to you about it. but. over the course of reporting this story i didn't really get the sense that actually it was

it was sensitive it was more that i don't think anybody actually knew what the strategy was and therefore nobody wanted to take responsibility on the record for what they were or weren't doing in relation to marry. the man at the head that i'll . be with the poppy and i think. what is. going to. lay out of shape. was out of the because of the war and assess he told her he must be let alone forge ahead he was about to be heading in by the. law might have he said. that all of the men had they had their months are young and had that particular sanity occurred to them a say hello mr muhammad are seen. about wall to her. this is my mother she also known as her. his name is in the british gas contract as the only representative of the palestinian authority. this is

clause in the contract says that rashid who was the economic adviser to yasser arafat was the only person who could act on behalf of the palestinian authority on anything relating to the guy's agreement for the duration of the contract. the developers were also blushed to cuba she didn't formed of their activities. giving muhammad though she the ex occlusal fry to handle everything in the contract was controversial. that be a accuses him of wasting millions of dollars money laundering and him busy link public funds while he was head of the palestine investment fund and if then the fact the political party means that the she does know a close ally of the deposed leader mohammed dahlan who lives in abu dhabi. in february 29000 the arab interior minister's council issued an international

arrest warrant for mohammed the sheet but he still moves if really between me and. i asked her i mean abdul both mohamed nasheed and the split in fact. there are none but you know what i have them her mother she had another world that's none of her mother's she bucky of use a lot of cut out for that and i feel that a lady had what i have. left but you know what a birth. and i've been hammered on that had that and. i said betsy a c.e.o. has so much of a lot of you know how do you and will i have that facade happy while at the end of the so what in the other i'm a left the that what i had gotten her mother she had left what and then i cut the deficit a little for us the new year when your money there and at the end of the last all you also get a lot of. english to try to conduct muhammad rashid inviting him to respond to the allegations made by the palestinian

authority it during his time in charge of the palestine investment fund. she didn't reply to our message. however he did the response to the arabic version of this phone on a palestinian news website. he denied what he called the false allegations made by you. he said. i challenge anyone to prove there was a new corruption because they're going to deal i was the negotiator and no one else of a concert at the palestinian governments and international organizations couldn't find a single corruption point and the deal. israel was not a signatory to the contract but seems to have been if it is from it considered a pretty elusive place of course we have a little letting one aircraft how to. shop for us to any other.

one we have a little electronic repeating it difficult year in an animal yet don't keep a list of shelf can must can you spot and you. can even in the media hear me a philistine your heart is sore with callao off well come on in italy. soon after the contract was signed there were negotiations between a british guys and israel about buying gaza from the gaza marine project. israeli guys and in the expressed a meet more was among those who advised the israeli government over 30. am to develop gaza. that was 336 kilometers offshore gaza gaza city. in what the death of 650 meters was to develop a subsidy but when pipeline. to ask along is there any there is

area of a lot of very large area. which is god's plan to do a gaza treatment facility in ashkelon and the field could have been remotely controlled for us because. gas is measured in d.c. and billions of a cubic meters it is important to know. for we cannot make. viable development of them again a market of list to b.c.m. period should be. should be developed so because otherwise. there was no thought such economic the ability to develop this field know such a market does not exist in the palestinian authority the market even. today the palestinian authority is very very small very very limited maybe half of the c.m. . perspective power station in jenin in other words. 0 point one p.c.m. for

a power station in gaza altogether it can sum up to about one see above so the market for this gaza is basically is. on the 27th of september 2000 palestinian president yasser arafat gave the green light for drilling to start of the gaza cost. the next day the right wing israeli politician are a sharon's approve accretive visit to the aqsa mosque compound it triggered violence which he quickly lit to the 2nd intifada. 5 months later sharon was elected the prime minister and the next few years so there's really palestinian relationship deteriorate badly the peace process stalled completely. but the guys who continued behind closed doors. the

palestinian the regime minister as a michele one held secret talks with his israeli counterparts just if but it's. a show as currently chairman of the palace time when a 3 authority. i tried to contact him but he refused to talk about his role in gaza money. and he was not and. all the palestinians i contacted whose names came up in research into the gaza marina project declined to be interviewed for this approach. however we did manage to speak to the former israeli minister of infrastructure and then he or she does it but it's. he spoke about his secret negotiations with as. i had negotiated in the suv with mr us on the show or from the family from the tribe

a show of very prominent known in gaza he actually risked his life to negotiate with be honest at the high base of the intifada he came to jerusalem east jerusalem but then at least we consider it as one city to negotiate with me and to keep on developing the field because he thought that it was good politically for him i'm telling you he risked his life i have no doubt i i was know it for effect because we had to guard him not from us from extremist in the arab world in the palestinian world and he did whatever he could do you know order to develop. but it's good allies is how sensitive this whole subject is for palestinians. we said that we had it right to speak to us. and other to be a figures but that they had all refused to be interviewed i think they're free fall

from extremists that would extend america was to expose the story i think they are afraid. after civil the rounds of secret negotiations israel and that be a reach an initial deal guess for electricity. i reached a deal with the palestinian authority mind you at that time goes i was ruled by fatah not by hamas and i reached a deal with that we the israeli should not pay money for the gas to them we should use their share a to reduce the debt they owed the israeli electric company they owed a lot of money and i think they still do. for delivery of off electricity and b. what we will do is we shall build a substation near the border of gaza and against the gas will supply electricity.

there be a agree to the israeli temps even though they didn't favor the palestinians after all the gaza was in their waters but sharon rejected the deal because the palestinians he claimed might use that even you to support what he called terrorism . the british guys realize the deal with the israelis would not be easy. in 2003 a british guys announced that israel was love the only player of the table and that it was also talking to egypt about the transporting gaza from gaza through its ports. but egypt was also holding its own secret talks of the same time with other companies about selling egyptian gas that was. the results and egypt is a. shadow on the new blocked all means for the palestinians to

extract gus in the gaza mud in berzerk to. challenge the. corrupt corruption is so slow that. this is the only way to do. a course of a minister a keenest a european judge tasked with imposing a no or an order and a trial testing the nose of a newly formed nation. witness. highway on al-jazeera. ready they start as drinks containers. ready and usually end up as garbage. and a nuisance. but for a select few old bottle service the building blocks of a better life. ready and the stepping stones to owning a family how. do you find down latin america is in bolivia and delves into the

a discussion about how to manage the transition office or down to a civilian led administration the human rights grievances that led to the protest in the 1st place will not go away if the military simply decides to impose its own election schedule there needs to be a discussion about the grievances that sparked the protest in the 1st place if any transition in sudan is to be sustainable and peaceful. don't trump has promised a phenomenal trade deal for a post brics it britain the us president has held talks with the u.k. prime minister to resume mail a 2nd day of his state visit is also waded into the ruling conservative party's leadership contest speaking to pro bricks it m.p. boris johnson who's favorite to replace may. tens of thousands of people across the world of commemorated the 30th anniversary of china's brutal crackdown on student protesters in tenement square beijing has fallen silent with any mention of the events in june 1909 and several dissidents are thought to have been taken away by

in 1900 yards was discovered in the eastern mediterranean of the coast of gaza. the palestinian authority there be a signed a contract with the british gas for the company to exploit and sell their gas in a project called gaza money. i'm thomas how to fill jazeera arabic and i'm asking why this gas has not been exploited for 20 years and why the subject has hardly had any international coverage. one possible market for the guys was israel but the prime minister ariel sharon it looked the deal because he was concerned about the palestinians making it even you out of it. then it go to more complicated. british guys to try to do a deal with egypt to distribute their gaza gas via pipelines. not knowing that egypt was doing a separate deal to sell its own guys to israel be in gyptian deal of

quote unquote was presented as a one time deal the prices were very low and the quantity were actually unlimited which was. looked unrealistic at at 1st place. mobile it was a little basil for us leni. a sort of if not heard here allow really are many of the fold of canned food at the fire mostly hospitals as they are south of the e.u. and in general you saw even one who are more for him feel very can look at mumbai that often for less than obama not offered only in one act the will by my candour i'll be more plain yaml he opposed the advance of phyllis leni election of a terry i was booking. i miss a lot of telegraphs but the happiest of all the minister for them.

it was now that the british guys and the v.a. realize that they had gas that they couldn't sell. if you don't have as long as you don't have markets for this god so the value of these gods is. almost 0 and the fact is that we have seen you know 18 years following their discovery in this field was not discovered. a minute in the wall and was that is that of all that of what you could pick him up for the people. in january 2006 are a sharon suffered a stroke and went into a coma. you would almost became acting israeli prime minister. meanwhile had mass won the palestinian legislative council elections and formed a government this complicated things on the international stage. how mass was asked to recognize the state of israel and all the peace deals done by the b.

. but how mass refused and israel and egypt and both sanctions on the peace in the west bank and gaza. the use of elements and there was a previously a palestinian unity government in gaza and there was back from march to june 2007. use a film and see was communications minister and i asked him if he was told about the gears the island at lock. them up. for years even was that. and then. also half a year ready. were you could go. along with. the

palestinian unity government ended in a split in the in june 2007 and how must took full control of gaza. and israel you would almost popularity feel as israeli prime minister but on the gaza front he decided to hold his own negotiations with the british gas without any involvement of the palestinian authority. in the u.k. british guys was experiencing it's only frustration with the gaza project it was entitle to a 60 percent share of revenue under its deal with. but was not it extracting any gas and israel had no plan except the gas field. almost irish talks with the british gas via the u.k. government under tony blair. well the talks failed and the british gaza closed down

its offices in israel. when the british of us thought it says that israel has the palestinians to run some have been on the gaza many universes that would have meant there was a freedom of information act that was submitted with their u.k. government by an organization i think tank called a shop aca which is a palestinian virtual think tank the freedom of information documents that have come out actually showed that israel had commercial reasons and it said that they would not allow palestinians to access their resources until the palestinians can guarantee that they would sell gas to israel at about a 3rd of the price of the gas on the international markets so they were essentially seeking or trying to force the palestinians to pay about $2.00 per hour and then

b.t.u. rather than $65.00 to $7.00 which is where was the price of gas at the time and for b.g. which is a private company that wouldn't have been profitable so essentially there was no commercial. viability for the project anymore because of the restrictions that israel put on. with a change of government in egypt in 22 of its borders with gaza would open this enabled how must reform its 2nd government and revisit the gaza guys project. these pictures which are made public for the 1st time. in 22 by a local gaza company attacks applauding the guys feet using the list of liberty of technology.

divers spotted these bubbles under the sea but. they believed they were from the gas field so samples were taken for further examination. he was involved in this a project and says that the local company got hold of maps and other data about possibly new gas fields of gas but this was why this really gyptian blockade of the 30 was tightening ringback. almost.

wish. you'd. have. this was the equipment used to try and tap into the guy's feet. services just said that gas lay at around 600 meters below the sea but. the weather announcer has no more call than of a thought of you know and just do the internet and do the bore that was young you couldn't she couldn't afford for so her know her with her know how are. not. the preborn me many emitted it was the most wonderful for me automated well as officially the only one. in a couple of hours. could it hurt at all of course we.

had for his nerves. these attempts only lasted for a few months as israel and egypt tightened the blockade on gaza even further. out of. a murderous. the one had the worst going to theatres than a. man in the club can appear on the. iraq war. fear of further. to the bunch of the homeowner. brother nor that an affair and. that look in her. business and what not only. look in her to learn. more and no.

ringback more recent research suggests that the number of gas fields and the quantity of gas in the gaza field could be greater than the official figures. as i asked then if she thought there might be more fields than those in the original gaza marina project. so you're asking is it only the 2 hours yet no it's possible there could be many other wells i've read in places from experts that it could be up to $88.00 wells and the pattern is that the area can't be explored at this point given the the limits that the israelis put on the maritime territory for the palestinians.

looked at ibrahim's safe is a former jordanian minister for energy and mineral resources. he was a member of the official team that held talks with the palestinian authority about buying and importing into jordan. in the head with fear i asked him if he thought there were more gas fields waiting to be discovered because it can really afford the time allowed we have. a new team is. probably plagiarism and i'd like to show. you the floor model along a matter with the need to be labeled as a player. would have a few months of my intimate have it on the field should it get out of here and work that. the ball would have a lucky man because. it can feel human not that

it was the 2nd or. so we know not there are at least 8 gas fields of gaza but no one knows the exact number. is there as currently takes all the guys available and the international community appears to take no action. there is evidence that by 2012 israel extract it 42000000000 cubic meters from the muddy b. field leaving it severely depleted. that would have supplied the palestinians with enough gas for 15 years in may 2017 the center for social multinational corporations saw more based in amsterdam published a report about the activities of noble in a regime called beneath a troubled waters. noble in the regime is based in houston texas and is extensively involved in the development and exploration of israeli licensed off

shore gas fields in the eastern mediterranean very port is extremely detailed but one of its conclusions is that the company has potentially contributed to a violation of the collective right of self-determination of palestinian actual gas was indeed drained from the board of field due to gas extraction from the noah field it could be argued that noble energy participated in an act of pillage in violation of international humanitarian and criminal law which could also incur criminal liability. al-jazeera asked nobody in the regime to respond to these allegations. very blight seeing their video petitions comply with their own code of conduct and the laws of the united states and the governments where they operate. we are confident we have not extracted gas from outside our israel easy license

areas or had an adverse impact on the ability of others to develop their resources . what kind of report. i can give you any report you all very well. you know why by the way. nope you're looking at the geological layer. now let's assume here is geological layer ok full with gas now i pump here this is my territory and the palestinians are here now when i pump here of course the layer begins to dissolve now gas begins to move from this side to that side because if i pump here then this side is getting deployed do i pump. palestinian gas or at the gas good question depends who we are asking depends what kind of answer you want. if you're

a palestinians of course it's another part of the of the occupation of the terrible things in the horrible atrocities we committed against them if you're an israeli of cause you don't people. geological layers do not know borders borders do not exist in geological layers i mean you play you play geologic you play geology and geology is you know they don't know borders. this map was a drone by jim sister in the department of international affairs at the trinity washington university in the us it shows the authority of the waters of the coast of gaza and israel. since 1909 the palestinians have only been allowed to explore the small the green area area. istook or argues that the international maritime you know gives the palestinians that i took the border they're much bigger

area and that. this potentially contains further gas fields which would be of huge benefit to the palestinians if they were allowed to exploit them. the mary b. field is an example of why it is important for the palestinians to take steps to declare an exclusive economic zone it isn't that could possibly allow it within the palestinian exclusive economic zone. however because the palestinians did not make a claim to it israel was able to start production and essentially deplete the field if the palestinians do not take steps to claim an easy it's possible that other areas of enormous economic value could be innocence claimed by israel. and once the resources are gone they're not coming back. coming from so many of the. powers that be to maintain and one completely mine at the now as well i mean you

know. if you're. even going to the. speed 2 can. do a lot for us then you have to have to shovel for the thing if you had a bit of a levy is there will be 2nd coming. and so i mean you have to put in vessel for this we needed to be a shuttle full of really think about was that had been going on but what at the time became you could get a shuttle full of any well you modest and probably have a ship to be a shuttle for the fleet if you could of. living is a large natural gas field in the military of the cost of israel it used to come online later in $29000.00. and what would have been an extraordinary deep in the $24000.00 that palestinian authority announced a plan to buy gas from. so back in 20152014 before that the p.a.

had agreed to buy gas israeli gas from leviathan which was an interesting prospect given the gas that was already in gaza marine and the deal was eventually called off under i think i believe under pressure from from the b.d.s. movement who were quite upset that the palestinians would buy israeli gas when they had their own gas just sitting off the coast. i think it was something that the p.a. decided decided against because politically it just wasn't palatable and it put them in a bad light and other the jordanians did and find catherine a riot and so and why did why did it happen i think public say that he was under pressure from the israelis to buy at what it was it called after b.d.s. movement pushed against it. i think the issue is very sensitive. for the palestinians to discuss. i think it's.

in the hands of. of. and his the the head of the palestinian investment fund so none of the. politicians always of the professionals in palestine are willing to discuss the issue it is a sensitive issue in this respect. in february 26th the real dutch shell the british gas and so technically became the new developer of the 2 gaza marine gas fields. but in marshy 2018 announced it was giving up its stake in the undeveloped gas field of gaza. i tried to get an interview with someone from sion to ask why they had pulled out from the gaza money indeed. but chill declined my request.

so what next for the guys feel discriminated to continue 28000000000 cubic meters that's the total consumption for spain for an entire here. so it's my understanding that shell had a 55 percent stake in gaza marine so now the palestinians are left trying to find a company to pick up this 55 percent of the guys marine profile you. get a kind of like us to what i did you know when i. would reduce to. what i did i'm just. friendly. if the time ever telling me was over when it was a kid to. show the. liberal book or got me at least well is to give them is to really value either. we give you what.

we have learned in the am not myself or and you were not proud of when the shakeout of the hard work to be taken over to all of us from our family that we got it we're going to have a few more bit of you have a lot of. this is a palestinian government document dated june 25th. it gives the minister of foreign affairs the power to contact the russian and the chinese companies to blur the guns feed. him committed to freedom to contact. them to keep him while the president and to do it in more. but then after that we have and you on the left. you have a 2nd can you do a 5 minute. michael merely kabir. and that they would let them if you don't want to who are shocked.

shocked that for this to mean so what went on with them at the moment of assad. personally for the past and ends in gaza if you look at the past 2 decades if that's any anything to tell us what the future is going to be like i think we're in a waiting in a waiting period where people in gaza are going to be in the dark looking out into the ocean at gas flames coming from from the fields that they could be producing on and they're not and that's purely because i don't think that this gas will be produced until there is a political agreement between the israelis and palestinians and between hamas and fatah. the various between fatah and hamas shows no sign of being dissolved. as for israeli palestinian politics the picture is no prize to. an average 2019

a coalition led by binyamin netanyahu the right wing likud party won the israeli parliament 3 elections this is not good news for the palestinians. have a better life nor is the us with an advisor as their approach to the region based on what we have seen so far it's hard to see how the dormant in the resource in the east room with the theory and can't benefit the palestinians in the near future anymore than it has in the past 20 years.
