ALL EYES ON SOUTHERN MEDITERRANEAN AS DRILL SHIP ARRIVES TO CYPRUS EEZ

Sourced : In Cyprus

President Nicos Anastasiades says he hopes that there will not be any Turkish provocations as drill ship ‘West Capella’ arrived off the southern Cypriot coast in the early hours of Wednesday morning.

French energy company Total in consortium with Italian Eni, is set to start drilling in Block 11 of Cyprus’ Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) by the end of this week.

In the build-up to the vessel’s arrival and following the failed Cyprus peace talks in Switzerland recently, Turkey has moved to issue a warning against Anastasiades’ government and international energy firms contracted to begin drilling within Cyprus’ EEZ.
