RAMALLAH, West Bank — The Palestinian Authority formed a ministerial committee Oct. 17 to oversee the sovereign Palestine Investment Fund on progress toward an agreement on the operation of the Gaza Marine gas field off the coast of the Gaza Strip.
The fund and the Athens-based Consolidated Contractors Company each own a 27.5% share in the field. The remaining 45% will be owned by the operating company, the Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Company.
