Egypt has announced a new natural gas discovery in the Nile Delta, with projected production of 50 million cu ft per day (mmcf/d) following the drilling of the exploratory well (Nidoco N-2) in the West Abu Madi area, co-operated by Italy’s Eni and the UK’s British Petroleum.
Eni announces a significant gas and condensate discovery in Egypt, with the drilling of the Denise W 1 exploration well in the Temsah Concession, located offshore in the Eastern Mediterranean.
Eni signed a programmatic agreement with the Venezuelan Ministry of Hydrocarbons and the state-owned company PDVSA to relaunch oil activities, specifically at Junin-5 (PDVSA 60 per cent, Eni 40 per cent), located in the Orinoco Belt, a heavy oil field containing 35 billion barrels of certified oil in place.
Eni has announced a major gas discovery at the Geliga-1 well in Indonesia’s offshore Ganal block, with estimated resources of about 5 Tcf of gas and 300 million barrels of condensate.
The European Investment Bank (EIB) and Eni have signed a €500 million ($580 million), 15-year loan to convert part of Eni’s Sannazzaro de’ Burgondi refinery in Pavia, Italy, into a biorefinery.
Eni has taken the Final Investment Decisions (FIDs) for the Gendalo and Gandang gas project (South Hub) and for the Geng North and Gehem fields (North Hub), only 18 months after the approval of the Projects of Development (PODs) in 2024.
Eni discovered two new gas structures, Bahr Essalam South 2 and 3, off Libya’s coast. Drilled near the Bahr Essalam field, they are estimated to hold over 1 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of gas in place.
Eni and Q8 Italy announce a major strategic investment in the ongoing project for the construction of a new biorefinery in Priolo, Sicily. The transformation plan for the Versalis site in Priolo received formal approval from Eni and Kuwait Petroleum Corporation Board of Directors, which follows the official binding offer submitted by Q8.
Eni has started production at the Ndungu full-field, part of the Agogo Integrated West Hub Project in Block 15/06 offshore Angola. The development includes seven production and four injection wells, targeting peak output of 60,000 barrels per day.
Mubadala Energy, the Abu Dhabi headquartered international energy company, has completed the acquisition from Eni of a 15 per cent participating interest in the Nargis Offshore Area (“Nargis”) concession, an offshore exploration block in Egypt.
