The first thing you need to know is that company mentioned in the article, Woodside, is an Australian company.

But the underlying conflict is between Noble Energy of Houston who has done all the development and has been seeking to sell this gas to recoup their investment. But there are those in Israel who want this gas only for Israel.

If you haven't kept up with this ongoing saga between Nobel and Israel over the last 2-3 years, this event probably doesn't mean much.
