Once the U.S. and Israel initiated their attack on Iran, the Strait of Hormuz was closed while multiple energy infrastructure assets suffered damage from missile strikes, which led Rystad Energy to estimate that the bill to repair the reported damage and shutdowns affecting the Gulf energy infrastructure could potentially amount to $25 billion . On the list of assets that underwent precautionary shutdowns were Israel’s Leviathan and Karish gas fields.
Chevron, as the operator of Leviathan with a 29.66% interest, got a clearance notification from Israel’s Petroleum Commissioner at the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure to restart operations of the Leviathan platform last week.
