HOUSTON,[url=http://www.govtvault.com/]gucci outlet online[/url], July 26 () -- International gas sales volumes for the second quarter of 2013 were driven by the launch of the Tamar natural gas field off Israel, Noble Energy said.Noble said it sold a record 120 million barrels of oil equivalent per day during the second quarter of 2013, a 33 percent increase year-on-year. It attributed much of the increase to the start of sales from the Tamar natural gas field.Tamar went into service during the second quarter.
