Jordan to import natural gas from Gaza field | StratRisksJordan already receives oil and gas via a pipeline from Egypt, as does Israel. It would be cheaper,for Jordan, if there was a direct link between Jordan and Gaza. It would also be cheaper for Israel if they took control of Gaza and hence the oil and gas fields. This is the whole reason behind the fighting.
A tripartite company was given a 15 year lease to drill off Gaza. British Gas(60%) do the drilling. A Lebanese firm CCC (30%) do the onshore refining and pumping and Gaza council(10%) This lease is halfway through by now, hence Israel continuing to attack Gaza. They are after the fields offshore
