Number Activity Description
1 Received approval for an extension of the MJ#1 License through December 2, 2020 28 February 2019
On February 24, 2019 and thereafter on February 26, 2019 Zion submitted its proposed 2019 WORK PROGRAM ON the Megiddo-Jezreel License No. 401.
On February 28, 2019 Israel’s Petroleum Commissioner officially approved the revised and updated Work Program on the Megiddo-Jezreel License No. 401 as shown below:
Number Activity description Execution by:
1 Submission of seismic survey plan to the Commissioner and execution of an agreement with a contractor to perform 30 April 2019
2 Commence 3D seismic survey in an area of approximately 50 square kilometers 1 August 2019
3 Transfer of field material configuration and processed material to the Ministry pursuant to Ministry guidelines 15 December 2019
4 Submit interpretation report 20 February 2020
On February 24, 2019 Zion submitted a request to the Commissioner to extend the Megiddo-Jezreel License No. 401 up to December 2, 2020.
On February 28, 2019 the Commissioner approved the extension of the Megiddo-Jezreel License No. 401 up to December 2, 2020.
On April 30, 2019 Zion submitted its Application for Extension of Continued Work Program Due Date on the Megiddo-Jezreel License No. 401 . The additional time is necessary because Zion intends to conduct a 3D survey in an area of approximately 60 square kilometers. This requires, amongst others, extensive permitting activities with relevant local landowners, the ILA, certain authorities and others throughout the seismic survey area and in all likelihood will not conclude prior to the beginning of the Jewish holidays in October and rainy season. This in turn would result in additional delay, as rain and mud are not conductive to the performance of a seismic survey which includes extensive use of vibrators.
