On Wednesday, TotalEnergies, the operator of Block 9, announced the arrival of the Transocean Barents drilling platform to the block, located approximately 120 kilometers from Beirut in Lebanese waters, alongside the arrival of a helicopter operated by Gulf Helicopters, that will transport teams to the drilling platform.

This is a significant step for Lebanon, which has long awaited this stride, in preparation for drilling of the exploration well in Block 9, scheduled to begin in late August 2023.
