The discovery certificate paves the way for the signing of an agreement to authorize the planning of the production facilities in the industrial zone adjacent to the license area of ​​the partnership. The committee decided to recommend to the Rami the allocation of an area exempt from a tender, subject to the provision of a bank guarantee of NIS 1.3 million and compliance with milestones following the presentation of the project by the Partnership to the Ministries of Energy and Economy.

The pair of facilities that will be built according to stringent environmental standards will employ hundreds of workers and it will be possible to produce about 1.7 million barrels of oil a year, while generating electricity at a capacity of about 30 megawatts. The Partnership's activities are in line with the Ministry of Environmental Protection's policy that promotes the establishment of energy recovery facilities from non-biodegradable municipal plastic waste (eg bags, etc.), which is an increasing environmental problem.
