Results

In 2014, in spite of an unfavorable trading environment, Eni delivered excellent results underpinned by record cash flow generation. The performance was driven by the increased contribution from upstream production and the accelerated restructuring of the mid and downstream businesses.

Adjusted operating profit of euro 11.57 billion and adjusted net profit of euro 3.71 billion declined by 9% and 16%, respectively, compared to 2013. The mid and downstream businesses reported a euro 1.2 billion improvement driven by contract renegotiations, capacity restructuring and downsizing and cost efficiencies. These positives helped offset the decline of the E&P segment due to lower Brent prices. Additionally, 2014 results were reduced by the loss on the mark-to-market interests in Galp and Snam which underlay two convertible bonds (loss of euro 0.22 billion).

Net profit of euro 1.29 billion was impacted by extraordinary charges, net of tax effect, of euro 1.41 billion, which related to asset impairments and the write off of certain deferred tax assets of Italian subsidiaries, as well as the alignment of crude oil and product inventories to current market prices for euro 1 billion. The 75% reduction from 2013 is attributable to the recognition in the past year of sizeable gains on the divestment of a 20% stake in the Mozambique discovery and on the revaluation of Eni’s interest in Artic Russia for an overall euro 4.7 billion.

  Cash flow of euro 15.1 billion was the best result of the last six years, supported by a reduced working capital in E&P, G&P and Saipem. Proceeds from disposals were euro 3.68 billion and mainly related to the divestment of Eni’s share in Artic Russia, an 8% interest in Galp and in the South Stream project. These cash inflows funded capital expenditure of euro 12.24 billion, focused on upstream activities, dividend payments (euro 4 billion) and share repurchases (euro 0.38 billion), also reducing the Group’s net debt by euro 1.28 billion.

As of December 31, 2014, leverage reduced to 0.22, from 0.25 at December 31, 2013.

Dividend > The Company’s robust results and strong fundamentals underpin a dividend distribution of euro 1.12 per share (euro 1.10 in 2013) of which euro 0.56 per share paid as interim dividend in September 2014.

Share repurchases in 2014 were 21.66 million for a cash outlay of euro 0.38 billion, together with the dividend this ensured a distribution yield of 8.3%.

Hydrocarbon production > In 2014, Eni’s hydrocarbon production was 1.598 million boe/d, up by 0.6% from 2013 on a homogeneous basis i.e. excluding the impact of the divestment of Eni’s interest in Artic Russia. Production increases in the United Kingdom, Algeria, the United States and Angola, more than offset mature fields decline. Start-ups and ramp-ups of new fields contributed 126 kboe/d.

Proved oil and natural gas reserves > Proved oil and gas reserves as of December 31, 2014 were 6.6 bboe. The reserve replacement ratio was 112%. The reserve life index is 11.3 years.

Development of new fields > In 2014, the West Hub project, located offshore in Block 15/06 in Angola, and Nené project in Block Marine XII in Congo were started up, setting the industry benchmark in terms of time-to-market.

Exploration successes > In 2014, Eni continued its track record of exploratory success. Additions to the Company’s resource base were approximately 900 million boe, at a competitive cost of $2.1 per barrel. Main discoveries in Angola, Congo, Ecuador, Indonesia and Gabon were made near-field and characterized by a short time-to-market.

Renegotiation of long-term gas supply contracts and take-or-pay reduction > Following the renegotiation of a number of the main long-term supply contracts, gas prices and related trends were better aligned to market conditions. 70% of long-term gas supply portfolio is now indexed to hub prices. Furthermore, the cash advances paid to suppliers due to the take-or-pay clause in those long-term supply contracts were reduced by euro 0.66 billion thanks to contract renegotiation and sales optimization.

Turnaround in refining and Chemicals > In 2014, the turnaround plan in the R&M achieved a cut of up to 30% of Eni’s refining capacity compared to 2012 with the agreement on the conversion of the Gela refinery, the start-up of the green plant in Venice and the disposal of Eni’s interest in a refinery in East Europe. Overall the capacity utilization rate increased from the previous year, driving down the breakeven margin of Eni’s refineries below 6 $/bbl.
- Eni defined with the Italian Ministry for Economic Development, the Region of Sicily and interested stakeholders (including trade unions and local communities) a plan for the reconversion of the Gela site into a bio-refinery and logistic hub, as well as the start-up of industrial initiatives aimed to relaunch the upstream sector in Sicily. The project intends to achieve the long-term sustainability of the Gela site leveraging on a new plan of capital expenditure, proprietary technologies and Eni’s people skills.
- An agreement was signed with relevant Italian institutions and stakeholders to restore the profitability of the loss-making Porto Marghera chemical plant. The pillars of the deal are the development of an innovative green chemical project in partnership with the US-based company Elevance Renewable Science Inc and the shutdown of the oil-based petrochemical unit. The green plant will produce specialties destined for high added-value industrial applications.

Restructuring of petrochemical activities in Sardinia > Operations at the green chemical project of Matrìca started up in 2014, marking the full conversion of the Porto Torres site.
The 50/50 joint venture between Eni’s subsidiary Versalis and Novamont, Matrìca, is currently producing basic chemical products for industrial applications from renewable feedstock.
The Sarroch plant was divested.

  Sustainability performance

Safety > In 2014, Eni continued to implement the communication and training program "Eni in safety", with workshops dedicated to Eni’s employees. The benefit of these and other programs and investments in safety supported a positive trend in the injury frequency rate relating to employees and contractors which improved for the tenth consecutive year (down by 12.6% from 2013). Notwithstanding the 27% decrease in the fatality index, four fatal accidents occurred in 2014.

Transparency in Corporate Reporting > In 2014, Eni ranked first in a worldwide survey made by Transparency International about transparency in corporate reporting. The survey analyzed three areas: anti-bribery programs, the organization (e.g. information on subsidiaries, joint arrangements and associates) and the publication of key economic and financial data related to the activities in each country where the company operates.

LEAD Board Program > Eni is one of the six companies in the world to adhere to the pilot phase of the UN Global Compact LEAD Board Program, committed to the Board of Directors of certain companies, in order to strengthen their awareness on sustainability issues. During the first module on "The materiality of sustainability" Eni’s Board of Directors discussed on material sustainability issues leading the company to create sustainable value. The initiative will continue in 2015.

Eni Fact Book Strategy

Strategy

Industrial Plan
In order to cope with a radically changed price environment, the Company outlined for the next four-year period an action plan which comprises a number of rigorous initiatives and objectives in order to mitigate the impact of lower oil prices and to preserve a robust financial structure, particularly in the short-to-medium term. Against the backdrop of a low price environment, our primary target remains cash generation which will be underpinned by well-designed industrial actions, capital discipline, focus on upstream activities and a large disposal plan. In approving the capital expenditure plan the Company selected high-return projects with short pay-back periods; this optimization will result in a euro 47.8 billion capital expenditure in the next four years, down by approximately 17% compared to previous plan, at the same exchange rate. The disposal plan, amounting to more than euro 8 billion in the 2015-2018 period, is based on the anticipated monetization of exploratory discoveries, optimization of the upstream portfolio – which will be refocused based on strategic consideration and on the evaluation of the geopolitical risk – rationalization of midstream and downstream portfolio, and the divestment of residual interests in Snam and Galp.
In the years 2015-2016 cash flow from operations will be able to fund projected capital expenditure on our Brent price scenario of 63 $/bbl on average.
  In the subsequent years, under our planning assumption of a recovery in crude oil prices at 85 $/bbl on average in the years 2017-2018 up to the long-term Brent price of 90 $/bbl, and considering our industrial actions, we will able to increase our cash flow from operations by 40% thus generating a significant surplus over the projected level of capital expenditure.
In brief, the Company forecasts that the planned industrial actions, the selective approach to capital expenditure and the disposal plan will enable Eni to preserve a robust financial structure, targeting a leverage below the ceiling of 0.30 throughout the oil cycle.

Dividend policy
In the framework of the Group’s transformation process and given the targets set out in the plan, the Company intends to propose a 2015 dividend of euro 0.8 per share.
The distribution policy will be progressive with underlying earnings growth.

For further information on main strategic guidelines and 2015-2018 key targets, see chapter "Eni’s business model" and section "Strategy" of each segment of activity.

Performance of the year    
I In 2014, the injury frequency rate confirmed the positive performance reported in 2013.
- Greenhouse gas emissions decreased by 11.3% compared to the previous year (with a 33.5% reduction in emissions from flaring) mainly due to the conclusion of the flaring down project at M’Boundi field in Congo and the ramp-up of relevant projects in Nigeria.
- Oil spills reported a decline from 2013 (with a 46% decrease in oil spills due to operations), while zero blow-outs were recorded for the eleventh consecutive year.
- Continued a positive trend in increasing water reinjection, with a record level of 56%, due among other to the completion of relevant projects, in particular in Nigeria, Egypt, Indonesia and Turkmenistan.
- In 2014, the E&P segment reported a decline of euro 1,527 million, or 25.7% in adjusted net profit compared to a year ago, due to lower crude oil and gas prices in dollar terms (down by 8.9% on average) reflecting the fall of Brent crude benchmark and the weakness of gas market, especially in Europe.
- Oil and natural gas production was 1.598 million boe/d in 2014 (up
  by 0.6% compared to the previous year), excluding the impact of the divestment of Eni’s interest in Siberian assets.
- Estimated net proved reserves at December 31, 2014 amounted to 6.6 bboe based on a reference Brent price of $101 per barrel. The reserves replacement ratio was 112%. The reserves life index was 11.3 years (11.1 years in 2013).

Exploration activity

I Eni continued its track record of exploratory success. Additions to the Company’s reserve backlog were approximately 900 million boe of resources for the full year, at a competitive cost of $2.1 per barrel. Near-field discoveries marked the year’s activity:
- The Ochigufu 1 NFW well located in the Angolan deep waters of Block 15/06 (Eni operator with a 35% interest). This discovery with a potential in place estimated at approximately 300 million barrels of oil, is located near the West Hub project, which started up at the end of 2014.

Eni Fact Book Exploration & Production

- The Minsala Marine 1 NFW in the conventional waters of Block Marine XII (Eni operator with a 65% interest) in Congo, was the third discovery in the last two years increasing the block’s resources in place by 1 billion barrels with characteristics similar to the previous discoveries of Litchendjili and Nené, the latter started up early production in record time.
- The Oglan-2 exploration well in Block 10 (Eni operator with a 100% interest), in Ecuador, with a potential in place estimated at approximately 300 million barrels of oil. The discovery is located near the processing facilities of the operated field of Villano and will be put in production with fast-track development.
- The Merakes 1 NFW gas well in East Sepinggan offshore block (Eni operator with a 85% interest), in Indonesia. This discovery with a potential in place estimated at approximately 2 Tcf, is located in proximity of the operated field of Jangkrik (Eni’s interest 55%), which is currently under development and will supply additional gas volumes to the Bontang LNG plant.
- The conventional waters of Gabon, the Nyonie Deep 1 well in the Block D4 (Eni operator with a 100% interest) showed an estimated potential of approximately 500 million boe in place of gas and condensates.
- The appraisal gas wells Agulha 2 and Coral 4 DIR, confirming the extension of their respective fields with a potential in place in Area 4 (Eni operator with a 50% interest) estimated at approximately 88 Tcf.
- The exploration portfolio was strengthened by means of new exploration acreage covering approximately 100,000 square kilometers net to Eni in the high potential areas such as Myanmar, Portugal, South Africa and Vietnam, as well as legacy areas such as Algeria, China, Egypt, Norway, the United Kingdom and the United States.
- In 2014, exploration expenditure amounted to euro 1,398 million, mainly related to the completion of 44 new exploratory wells (25.8 net to Eni). The overall commercial success rate was 31.3% (38.0% net to Eni). In addition, 101 exploratory wells drilled are in progress at year end (42.2 net to Eni).

Sustainability and portfolio
developments

I The West Hub Development project in Block 15/06 (Eni operator with a 35% interest) achieved the first oil late in 2014. This is the first Eni-

  operated project in Angola and is currently flowing at 45 kbbl/d, with production ramp-up expected to reach a plateau of up to 100 kbbl/d in the coming months. The start-up was achieved in just 44 months from the announcement of the commercial discovery, a result that is at the top of the industry among deep waters developments.

     Strategy    
   
Upstream growth model will continue to focus on conventional assets, which will be organically developed, with a large resource base and a competitive cost structure, which make them profitable even in a low price environment.
The sizeable exploration successes of the last years have increased the Company’s resource base, contributing to the Company’s value generation through the early monetization of the discovered resources in excess of the target replacement ratio.
Eni’s top priorities are the increase and valorization of discovered resources and a growing cash generation.
The drivers to target the increase and valorization of discovered resources are: (i) re-balancing of exploration activities with a focus on near-field initiatives, with the objective of delivering 2 billion boe of discovered resources at a competitive cost of $2.6 per bbl; (ii) renewal of the portfolio of exploration leases by focusing on high materiality play; and (iii) fast-track development of discovered resources by optimizing the time-to-market and exercising tight control on project execution.
Cash generation will be driven by: (i) production growth at an annual rate of 3.5% leveraging on a robust pipeline of projects with an average break-even of $45 per bbl which together with the ramp-ups at fields started up in 2014 will add more than 650 kboe/d in 2018. This new production

will bring an additional cumulative cash flow of euro 19 billion in the 2015-2018 plan period. Main start-ups are the Goliat field (Eni operator with a 65% interest) in the Barents Sea in Norway, the oil and gas project of Offshore Cape Three Points (Eni operator with a 47.22% interest) in Ghana, the Jangkrik project (Eni operator with a 55% interest) in Indonesia and production re-start of Kashagan field (Eni’s interest 16.81%) by the end of 2016; (ii) project modularization and phasing which will enable the Company to reduce financial exposure and to accelerate production start-ups; (iii) strengthened efficiency by means of several initiatives to reduce operating costs, to be achieved also by renegotiating the supply of field services and goods; and (iv) early monetization of part of discovered volumes.
Eni acknowledges that the upstream performance could be adversely impacted in the short-to-medium term by a number of risks: (i) the commodity risk related to current trends in crude oil prices. Eni is planning to mitigate this risk by implementing initiatives of rationalization and optimization, the renegotiation of contractual terms with contractors to align costs of field services and goods to the changed market conditions. In 2015-2018 plan period, Eni estimates a decrease of approximately 13% of capital expenditure net of exchange rate effects versus the previous four year plan due to a reduction in exploration expenditure which will be focused on near-field and appraisal activities, the re-phasing of projects yet to be sanctioned and service contract renegotiations. In addition, Eni intends to reduce operating costs by 7% versus the old plan; (ii) the political risk due to social and political instability in certain countries of operations. A major part of Eni’s activities are currently located in countries that are far from high-risk areas and Eni plans to growth mainly in countries with low-mid political risk (approximately 90% of the capital expenditure of the four-year plan); (iii) risk related to the growing complexity of certain projects due to technological and logistic issues. Eni plans to counteract those risks by strict selection of adequate contractors, tight control of the time-to-market and the retaining of the operatorship in a large number of projects (84% of production related to start-ups); and (iv) the technical risk related to the execution of drilling activities at high pressure/high temperature wells and deep waters wells (24% of planned wells to be drilled in 2015). Eni plans to increase operatorship of critical projects ensuring better direct control and deploying its high operational standards.

Libya
Eni started operations in Libya in 1959. Developed and undeveloped acreage in Libya was 26,635 square kilometers (13,294 square kilometers net to Eni). Production activity is carried out in the Mediterranean Sea facing Tripoli and in the Libyan Desert area and includes six contract areas. Onshore contract areas are: (i) Area A consisting in the former concession 82 (Eni’s interest 50%); (ii) Area B, former concession 100 (Bu Attifel field) and the NC125 Block (Eni’s interest 50%); (iii) Area E with El Feel (Elephant) field (Eni’s interest 33.3%); and (iv) Area F with Block 118 (Eni’s interest 50%). Offshore contract areas are: (i) Area C with the Bouri oilfield (Eni’s interest 50%); and (ii) Area D with Blocks NC41 and NC169 (onshore) that feed the Western Libyan Gas Project (Eni’s interest 50%).
In the exploration phase, Eni is operator of four onshore blocks in the Kufra area (186/1, 2, 3 & 4) and in the onshore contract Areas A, B and offshore Area D.
The internal situation in Libya continues to represent an issue to Eni’s management. Following the internal conflict of 2011 and the fall of the regime, which forced the Company to shut down almost all its producing facilities including gas exports for a period of about 8 months, a period of social and political instability began which turned into disorders, strikes, protests and a resurgence of the internal conflict. These events jeopardized Eni’s ability to perform its industrial activity in safety, forcing the Company to interrupt its operations on certain occasions as precautionary measure. These events were fairly frequent in 2013 and sporadic in 2014. In 2014, Eni’s facilities in Libya produced on average 239 kboe/d, registering a small increase compared to 2013. In light of the recent developments in Libya, management decided to strengthen security measures at the Company’s production installations and facilities in the Country. However, we did not suffer any significant production shutdowns in the first part of 2015.

  Exploration and production activities in Libya are regulated by six Exploration and Production Sharing contracts (EPSA). The licenses of Eni’s assets in Libya expire in 2042 and 2047 for oil and gas properties, respectively.

n  Kazakhstan

Eni has been present in Kazakhstan since 1992. Eni co-operates the Karachaganak producing field and is a partner of the consortium of the North Caspian Sea PSA (NCSPSA) to develop the Kashagan field.
In June 2014, Eni signed a strategic agreement with Kazakh state-owned company KazMunayGas (KMG) for the exploitation of exploration and production rights in Isatay, an offshore area of high potential located in the north Caspian Sea. KMG and Eni each will held 50% of exploration and production rights. The agreement also involves the construction of a shipyard project in Kuryk.

Kashagan
Eni holds a 16.81% working interest in the North Caspian Sea Production Sharing Agreement. The NCSPSA defines terms and conditions for the exploration and development of the giant Kashagan field which was discovered in the Northern section of the contractual area in the year 2000 over an undeveloped area extending for approximately 4,600 square kilometers. The NCSPSA will expire at the end of 2041.
The exploration and development activities of the Kashagan field and the other discoveries made in the contractual area are executed through an operating model which entails an increased role of the Kazakh partner and defines the international parties’ responsibilities in the execution of the subsequent development phases of the project.
During the course of 2014, the Consortium performed an assessment of the technical issues which forced the operator to shut down the production at the Kashagan field soon after the production start-up with the effective completion of Phase 1 of the

  development plan (the Experimental Program). The findings of the assessment confirmed the necessity to fully replace the damaged pipelines. The Consortium recently finalized the contracts for the replacement of both oil and gas lines. The Consortium expects to complete the installation works in the second half of 2016 with production re-start by the end of 2016. The planned production rate will be achieved during 2017.
The Phase 1 is targeting an initial production capacity of 180 kbbl/d; when a second offshore treatment train comes online and compression facilities for gas reinjection are operational production capacity will ramp up to 370 kbbl/d. The partners are planning to further increase available production capacity up to 450 kbbl/d by installing additional gas compression capacity for reinjection in the reservoir. The partners submitted the scheme of this additional phase to the relevant Kazakh Authorities.
In December 2014, the Consortium and the Kazakh Government signed an agreement which settled a number of pending issues relating to financial, environmental and operational matters.
In 2014, the Consortium agreed a new setup of the operating model to execute the development of the project, targeting to streamline decision-making process, to increase efficiency in operations and to reduce costs. This new operating model provides that a company, participated by the seven partners of the Consortium, acts as the sole operator of all exploration, development and production activities at the Kashagan field. As part of this process, in 2014 the shareholding in AKCO NV (Eni’s interest 100%) was transferred to NCOC BV. The activities needed to set up the new operating model will be completed by the first half of 2015.
An innovative environmental monitoring system was implemented in 2014. The project designed by Eni provides for the application of a mobile underwater vehicle (AUV) able to realize an environmental monitoring and asset integrity at the production facility.
During the year the integrated program for the management of biodiversity in the Ural Delta (Ural River Park Project - URPP) was completed. The program was launched by Eni under the sponsorship of the Environment and Water Resources Kazakh Authority and aimed to protect the environment and ecosystems in the Caspian area. In June 2014 the project received an official UNESCO designation to be included in the Man and Biosphere Program.
Within the agreements reached with the local Authorities, Eni continues its training program for Kazakh resources in the oil&gas sector.

Karachaganak
Located onshore in West Kazakhstan, Karachaganak (Eni’s interest 29.25%) is a liquid, gas and condensate giant field. Operations are conducted by the Karachaganak Petroleum Operating Consortium (KPO) and are regulated by a PSA lasting 40 years, until 2037. Eni and British Gas are co-operators of the venture.
Production In 2014, production of the Karachaganak field averaged 242 kbbl/d of liquids (52 kbbl/d net to Eni) and 909 mmcf/d of natural gas (201 mmcf/d net to Eni). This field is developed by producing liquids from the deeper layers of the reservoir. The gas is marketed (about 50%) at the Russian gas plant in Orenburg and the remaining volumes is utilized for re-injecting in the higher layers and the production of fuel gas. Over 90% of liquid production are stabilized at the Karachaganak Processing Complex (KPC) with a capacity of approximately 250 kbbl/d and exported to Western markets through the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (Eni’s interest 2%) and the Atyrau-Samara pipeline. The remaining volumes of non-stabilized liquid production (approximately 16 kbbl/d) are marketed at the Russian terminal in Orenburg.

Performance of the year

I In 2014, the positive trend in employees’ and contractors’ injury frequency rates was confirmed (down by 66%).
I The water consumption rate of EniPower’s plants decreased in absolute terms (down by 5.9% from 2013), while the same index per kWh produced was substantially stable. The decrease was due to lower use of sea water in cooling operations at Brindisi site. Despite the reduction of water consumption in absolute terms, generation of steam and freshwater consumption were essentially stable compared to 2013.
I In 2014, adjusted net profit of the Gas & Power segment amounted to euro 190 million, up by euro 443 million from 2013. This reflected the benefits from the renegotiation of a substantial portion of the long-term gas supply portfolio, including greater one-off effects related to the purchase costs of volumes supplied in previous reporting periods. These positive effects were partially offset by declining gas and power prices against the backdrop of continuing weak demand and competitive pressure.
  I Renegotiation of long-term supply contracts and take-or-pay reductions: gas prices and related trends were better aligned to market conditions. Approximately 70% of long-term gas supply portfolio is now indexed to hub prices. Furthermore, the cash advances paid to suppliers due to the take-or-pay clause were reduced by euro 0.66 billion thanks also to sales optimization.
I Eni gas sales (89.17 bcm) were down by 4.3% compared to 2013. Eni’s sales in the domestic market of 34.04 bcm decreased by 5.1% driven by lower sales in all the business segments partially offset by higher spot sales. Barely unchanged volumes marketed in the main European markets (42.21 bcm; down by 1.1%).
I Capital expenditure of euro 172 million mainly concerned the flexibility and upgrading of combined cycle power stations (euro 98 million), as well as gas marketing initiatives (euro 66 million).

     Strategy    
   
In the Gas & Power segment, it is forecasted a structural decline in demand due to lower consumption driven by the macroeconomic crisis, competition of other sources, as well as a general oversupply situation in Europe, in the context of an increasing liquidity at hubs. Main target is the focus on profitability and sustainable cash flow, according the following guidelines: (i) complete alignment of supply portfolio to market conditions and substantial recovery of the residual amounts of gas paid in advance; (ii) simplification of operations and optimization of logistic costs with a saving of euro 300 million by 2018; and (iii) development and growth in the value added segments, in particular in the retail segment, developing the client base also through the sale of extracommodity products, trading, as well as in the LNG segment, leveraging on the marketing opportunities in premium markets and upstream integration. Cash flow from operations is expected to contribute for euro 3 billion cumulatively over the four-year plan.



   

Gas & Power value chain
Eni’s Gas & Power segment engages in all phases of the natural gas value chain: supply, trading and marketing of natural gas and LNG. This segment also includes power generation and marketing of electricity. Eni’s leading position in the European gas market is ensured by a set of competitive advantages, including our multi-country approach, long-term gas availability, access to infrastructures, market knowledge and a strong customer base, in addition to long-term relations with producing countries. Furthermore, integration with our upstream operations provides valuables growth options whereby the Company targets to monetize its large gas reserves.

1. Marketing

1.1 Natural gas

Supply
The supply of natural gas is a free activity where prices are determined by free negotiations of demand and supply involving natural gas resellers and producers. In order to secure mid and long-term access to gas availability, Eni has signed a number of long-term gas supply contracts with key producing countries that supply the European gas markets. In recent years Eni renegotiated a number of the main long-term supply contracts, thus better aligning gas prices and related trends to market conditions. 70% of long-term gas supply portfolio is now indexed to hub prices.
Eni could also leverage on the availability of natural gas deriving from equity production, the access to all phases of the LNG chain (liquefaction, shipping and regasification) and to other gas infrastructures, and by trading and risk management activity. Eni’s long-term gas requirements are met by natural gas from a total of 18 countries, where Eni signed long-term gas supply contracts or holds upstream activities and by access to continental Europe's spot markets.
In 2014, Eni’s consolidated subsidiaries supplied 82.91 bcm of natural gas, down by 2.76 bcm, or 3.2% from 2013. Gas volumes supplied outside Italy (75.99 bcm from consolidated companies), imported in Italy or sold outside Italy, represented approximately

 

92% of total supplies, down by 2.53 bcm, or 3.2% compared to the previous year, due to lower volumes purchased in particular in Russia (down 2.91 bcm), Algeria (down 1.80 bcm), Norway (down 0.73 bcm) and the United Kingdom (down 0.40 bcm), partly offset by higher volumes purchased in Libya (up 0.88 bcm) and the Netherlands (up 0.40 bcm). Supplies in Italy (6.92 bcm) registered a slight decrease from 2013 (down 0.23 bcm) due to mature fields’ decline.

Marketing in Italy and Europe
Eni operates in a liberalized market where energy customers are allowed to choose the gas supplier and, according to their specific needs, to evaluate the quality of services and offers. Overall Eni supplies approximately 2,400 customers including large companies, power generation companies, wholesalers and distributors of natural gas for automotive use. Residential users are approximately 7.93 million amid households, professionals, small and medium-sized enterprises
  and public bodies located all over Italy, and approximately 2.2 million customers in European countries. In a trading environment characterized by a 12% drop of demand in the Italian market compared to the previous year (a similar decline was registered in the European Union) due to declining consumption in all the reference segments and raising competitive pressure, Eni carried out a number of initiatives – such as renegotiation of supply contracts, efficiency and optimization actions – in order to mitigate the negative impact of the reference scenario.

Contents

Eni Fact Book Gas & Power

Benelux
Through a direct presence Eni holds a key position in the Benelux Countries (Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg), in particular in Belgium, which are a strategic hub of the continental gas spot market in Western Europe, thanks to their geographical position and high level of interconnectivity with the gas transit networks of continental Europe. In 2014, sales in Benelux were mainly directed to industrial companies, wholesalers and power generation and amounted to 10.36 bcm, down by 1.68 bcm, or 19.4%, due to higher spot sales.
Eni launched its brand in retail gas and power market in Belgium.
The Eni brand substituted the brands of the local operators acquired in the past few years, with the aim of becoming one of the major retail operators in France and Belgium while consolidating its leadership on the Belgian business market.

France
Eni is present in all market segments through its direct commercial activities and through its subsidiary Eni Gas & Power France sa. In 2014, sales in France amounted to 7.05 bcm, with a decrease of 0.68 bcm, or 8.8%, from a year ago. In 2013, Eni launched its brand in France, with the aim of becoming one of the major retail operators in the Country.

Germany/Austria
Eni operates in Germany through its direct marketing structure. In 2014, Eni divested its 50% stake in EnBW Eni Verwaltungsgesellschaft (EEV), a joint venture which controls the companies Gasversorgung Süddeutschland (GVS) and Terranets BW operating in the gas marketing and transport, to the partner EnBW.
In 2014, total sales in Germany/Austria amounted to 7.44 bcm, with a decrease of 0.87 bcm, or 10.5% compared to the previous year.

Spain
Eni operates in the Spanish gas market through a direct marketing structure that markets its portfolio of LNG and through a joint venture Unión Fenosa Gas "UFG" (Eni’s interest 50%) which mainly supplies natural gas to industrial clients, wholesalers and power generation utilities. In 2014, UFG gas sales amounted to 3.92 bcm (1.96 bcm Eni’s share). UFG holds an 80% interest in the Damietta liquefaction plant, on the Egyptian coast, and a 7.36% interest in a liquefaction plant in Oman. In addition, it holds interests in the Sagunto (Valencia) and El Ferrol (Galicia) regasification plants (42.5% and 18.9%, respectively). In 2014, total sales in Spain amounted to 5.31 bcm, with a decrease of 0.41 bcm, or 8.4%.

Turkey
Eni sells gas supplied from Russia and transported via the Blue Stream pipeline. In 2014, sales amounted to 7.12 bcm, with an increase of 0.39 bcm, or 5.8% from a year ago.

United Kingdom
Eni through its subsidiary ETS markets in the United Kingdom the equity gas produced at Eni’s fields in the North Sea and operates in

  the main continental natural gas hubs (NBP, Zeebrugge, TTF). In 2014, sales amounted to 2.94 bcm, with a decrease of 16.2% from a year ago.

1.2 LNG
Eni is present in all phases of the LNG business: liquefaction, gas feeding, shipping, regasification and sale through a direct presence and interests in joint ventures and associates. The LNG business registered a good profitability, leveraging on the growing energy demand in Asia and South America. In the next years Eni intends to increase sales in premium markets, redirecting the availability through portfolio optimization and a higher integration with the upstream segment.
In 2014, LNG sales (13.3 bcm) increased by 0.9 bcm from 2013.
In particular, LNG sales of the Gas & Power segment (8.9 bcm, included in worldwide gas sales) mainly concerned LNG from Qatar, Algeria and Nigeria marketed in Europe, South America and the Far East.

1.3 Power generation
Eni’s power generation sites are located in Ferrera Erbognone, Ravenna, Livorno, Mantova, Brindisi, Ferrara and Bolgiano.

Installed generation capacity as of December 31, 2014: 5,283 MW


The combined cycle gas fired technology (CCGT) ensures an high level of efficiency and low environmental impact. In particular, management estimates that for a given amount of energy (electricity and steam) produced, using the CCGT technology instead of conventional power generation technology, the emission of carbon dioxide is reduced by about 5 mmtonnes, on an energy production of 26.5 TWh.

Contents

Eni Fact Book Gas & Power

In 2014, power generation was 19.55 TWh, down by 1.83 TWh, or 8.6% from 2013, mainly due to lower production at Ravenna and Brindisi plants due to decreasing demand. As of December 31, 2014, installed   operational capacity was 4.9 GW (4.8 GW as of December 31, 2013). Electricity trading reported a slight increase (up 2.6% to 14.03 TWh ) mainly due to higher purchases on the spot market.

2. International transport

Eni, as shipper, has transport rights on a large European and North African networks for transporting natural gas in Italy and Europe, which link key consumption basins with the main producing areas (Russia, Algeria, the North Sea, including the Netherlands, Norway, and Libya). The Company participates to both entities which operate the pipelines and entities which manage transport rights. A description of the main international pipelines currently participated or operated by Eni is provided below:
- the TTPC pipeline, 740-kilometer long, is made up of two lines that are each 370-kilometer long with a transport capacity of 33.2 bcm/y and five compression stations. This pipeline transports natural gas from Algeria across Tunisia from Oued Saf Saf at the Algerian border to Cap Bon on the Sicily Channel where it links with the TMPC pipeline;
- the TMPC pipeline for the import of Algerian gas is 775-kilometer long and consists of five lines that are each 155-kilometer long with a
  transport capacity of 33.5 bcm/y. It crosses the Sicily Channel from Cap Bon to Mazara del Vallo in Sicily, the point of entry into the Italian natural gas transport system;
- the Green Stream pipeline for the import of Libyan gas produced at the Eni operated fields of Bahr Essalam and Wafa. It is 520-kilometer long with a transport capacity of 8 bcm/y crossing the Mediterranean Sea from Mellitah on the Libyan coast to Gela in Sicily, the point of entry into the Italian natural gas transport system; and
- Eni holds a 50% interest in the Blue Stream underwater pipeline (with a record water depth of more than 2,150 meters) linking the Russian coast to the Turkish coast of the Black Sea. This pipeline is 774-kilometer long on two lines and has transport capacity of 16 bcm/y. It is part of a joint venture to sell gas produced in Russia on the Turkish market.
These assets generate a steady operating profit thanks to the sale of transport rights on a long-term basis.

Performance of the year

I In 2014, continued the positive trend in injury frequency rate for employees and contractors (down by 14.9%).
I In 2014, the Refining & Marketing segment reduced the adjusted net loss to euro 147 million (euro 232 million in 2013) driven by improved refining margins, reflecting a fall in oil prices in the last quarter of the year and restructuring initiatives, including the start-up of the Green Refinery project in Venice, as well as cost efficiency initiatives, particularly with respect to energy and overhead costs.
I In 2014, refining throughputs were 25.03 mmtonnes, down by 8.6% from 2013. In Italy, processed volumes decreased by 11.7% mainly due to the unfavorable refinery scenario registered in the first part of the year, as well as the shutdown of the Gela and Venice refineries due to the ongoing reconversion activities.
I In 2014, the production of biofuels amounted to 12.93 mmtonnes, up by 19.3% compared to a year ago following the start-up of the bio-refinery in Porto Marghera.
  I Retail sales in Italy amounted to 6.14 mmtonnes, down by 7.5% from 2013 due to strong competitive pressure. In 2014, Eni’s average retail market share was 25.5%, down by 2 percentage points from 2013.
I Retail sales in the rest of Europe of 3.07 mmtonnes were substantially stable compared to 2013 (up by 0.7%). Higher volumes marketed in Germany and Austria were offset by lower sales of the other subsidiaries.
I Capital expenditure amounting to euro 537 million mainly related to the reconversion of the Venice site to bio-refinery, as well as maintenance and improvement of flexibility and yields of the other plants, in particular at Sannazzaro refinery (euro 362 million) and marketing activities for the rebranding of the retail distribution network (euro 175 million).
I In 2014, the expenditure in R&D in the Refining & Marketing segment amounted to approximately euro 18 million. During the year 15 patent applications were filed.

Portfolio rationalization

In line with the Eni’s strategy focused on selectively growing in high profitable markets, Eni signed a preliminary agreement for the divestment of its marketing activities of fuels located in Czech Republic, Slovakia and Romania. The agreement also comprises the refinery capacity to supply the marketing network through a 32.445% interest in the joint refining asset Ceská Rafinérská as (CRC). All these agreements are subject to the approval of the relevant European Antitrust Authorities.

Relaunch plan of the Gela site

In November 2014, Eni defined with the Ministry for Economic Development, the Region of Sicily and interested stakeholders a plan to restore the profitability of the Gela refinery. The key point of the agreement is the reconversion of the Gela site to a bio-refinery. The reconversion will follow the model adopted for the Venice green

  refinery, where green diesel is produced from raw vegetable materials by using the proprietary EcofiningTM technology. The agreement also defines terms for building a modern logistic hub and new initiatives in the upstream sector in Sicily, including offshore. Eni will also perform environmental remediation and clean-up activities and institute the Safety Competence Center (SCC), a center of excellence in the security field. The investment plan for such initiatives amounts to euro 2.2 billion, mainly relating to upstream projects in the Sicily region.

Start-up of Venice bio-refinery

In June 2014, the start-up of the bio-refinery of Porto Marghera was achieved, with a green diesel capacity of approximately 300 ktonnes/y. The green diesel is produced from refined vegetable oil utilizing the proprietary EcofiningTM technology. The production will fulfill half of the Eni’s annual requirement of green diesel, thus ensuring new perspectives for the industrial site of Venice and allowing economic and environmental benefits.

     
     Strategy    
   
For the next four years, the priority for the Refining & Marketing segment is the return to profitability in the context of weak fundamentals of the European refining market, affected by structural overcapacity. Eni intends to reduce refining exposure, through the reconversion of productive processes by the achievement of the breakeven level of adjusted operating profit and of cash flow from 2015 leveraging on: (i) rationalization of refining capacity and reconversion of industrial plants in Italy and abroad, reducing capacity by a further 20% in addition to the 30% capacity downsizing reached up to 2014; (ii) continuous efficiency improvement; and (iii) marketing activities development and rationalization of our portfolio in Italy and abroad. We believe that those actions will reduce our breakeven in the refining business to approximately 3 $/bbl at the end of the plan.




Activities

1. Refining

Eni, through its Refining & Marketing segment, is a leader in refining in Italy, with its five wholly-owned refineries (Sannazzaro, Livorno, Venice, Taranto and Gela), and in marketing of petroleum products.

  In the rest of Europe Eni also holds interests in certain refining poles and is active in retail and wholesale sales in Central-Eastern European countries. Eni’s refining system has balanced capacity of approximately 30.8 mmtonnes (equal to 617 kbbl/d) and a conversion index of 62%.

Eni Fact Book Refining & Marketing

In 2014, total refinery throughputs were 25.03 mmtonnes, of which 19.92 mmtonnes in Italy and 5.11 outside Italy. Total throughputs in wholly-owned refineries were 16.24 mmtonnes, down by 2.75 mmtonnes or 14.5% from 2013. This determined a refinery utilization rate of 78%, calculated as the average Eni’s refineries complexity and their utilization rate.
Approximately 25.2% of processed volumes were supplied by Eni’s Exploration & Production segment, up by 1.5 percentage points from 2013 (23.7%).

n  Italy
Eni’s refining system in Italy is composed of five wholly-owned refineries and a 50% interest in the Milazzo refinery. Each of Eni’s refineries in Italy has operating and strategic features that aim

  at maximizing the value associated to the asset structure, the geographic location with respect to end markets, the integration with Eni’s other activities, as well as the development of green technologies.

Sannazzaro: refinery has balanced refining capacity of 200 kbbl/d and a conversion index of 70.2%. Management believes that this site is one of the most efficient refineries in Europe. Located in the Po Valley, it mainly supplies markets in North-Western Italy and Switzerland. The high flexibility and conversion capacity of this refinery allows it to process a wide range of feedstock. From a logistical standpoint this refinery is located along the route of the Central Europe pipeline, which links the Genoa terminal with French speaking Switzerland. This refinery contains two primary distillation

 

Crude oil that needs to be carried to the refinery by means of pipelines or over long distances by tanker ships undergoes processing for the separation of its components. In refineries crude oil is warmed to a temperature of approximately 400°C so that it turns into vapor. Oil vapors are injected in fractionating columns, also called distillation towers, where they flow upward through a series of plates and cool. At various temperatures they condense and return to a liquid state. While cooling and falling they separate in various hydrocarbon fractions (gasoil, kerosene, naphtha, gasoline, methane, ethane, propane and butane, fuel oil, lubricants, paraffin, wax and bitumen).

plants and relevant facilities, including three desulphurization units. Conversion is obtained through a fluid catalytic cracker (FCC), two hydrocrackers (HDC), the last unit entered into operations in June 2009, which enable middle distillate conversion and a visbreaking thermal conversion unit with a gasification facility loaded with heavy residue from visbreaking unit (tar) to produce syn-gas to feed the nearby EniPower power plant at Ferrera Erbognone. In 2013, the Eni Slurry Technology (EST) project was started up. The conversion plant with a 23 kbbl/d capacity is designed to process extra heavy crude with high sulphur content increasing yields in middle distillates and reducing that of fuel oil. Eni is also developing an upgrading of its conversion technology called Slurry Dual-Catalyst (an evolution of EST), which is based on a combination of two nano-catalysts and aims at increasing productivity and improving product quality, reducing expenditure and operating costs. A further project underway is the proprietary process for hydrogen production, Hydrogen SCT-CPO (Short Contact Time-Catalytic Partial Oxidation). This reforming technology transforms gaseous and liquid hydrocarbons (also derived from bio-mass) into synthetic gas (carbon monoxide and hydrogen) at competitive costs.

Taranto: refinery has balanced refining capacity of 120 kbbl/d and a conversion index of 56%. This refinery processes most of oil produced in Eni’s Val d’Agri fields carried to Taranto through the Monte Alpi pipeline (in 2014 a total of 2.91 mmtonnes of this oil was processed). It principally produces fuels for automotive use and residential heating purposes for the Southern Italian markets. The complexity is achieved through a Residue Hydroconversion Unit (RHU)-Hydrocracking process and a "Two Stage" Visbreaking-Thermal Cracking unit.

Gela: the refinery was shut down in order to activate the plan of reconversion in bio-refinery following the model adopted for the Venice green refinery and create a logistic hub.

  Livorno: refinery, with balanced refining capacity of 84 kbbl/d and a conversion index of 11%, manufactures mainly gasoline, fuel oil for bunkering and lubricant bases. Besides its primary distillation plants, this refinery contains two lubricant manufacturing lines. Its infrastructures including highways, railways and pipeline connecting the site with the local harbor and with the Florence storage sites through two pipelines optimizing intake, handling and distribution of products.

Venice (Porto Marghera): in June 2014, the start up of the bio-refinery of Porto Marghera was achieved, with green diesel capacity of approximately 300 ktonnes/y. The green diesel is produced from refined vegetable oil utilizing the proprietary EcofiningTM technology. The production will fulfill half of the Eni’s annual requirement of green diesel, thus ensuring new perspectives for the industrial site of Venice and allowing economic and environmental benefits.

Milazzo: jointly-owned by Eni and Kuwait Petroleum Italy, the refinery has balanced primary refining capacity of 124 kbbl/d (Eni’s share) and a conversion rate of 60%. Located on the Northern coast of Sicily, it is provided with two primary distillation plants, one unit of fluid catalytic cracking (FCC), one hydrocracking unit for the conversion of middle distillates (HDCK) and one unit devoted to the residue treatment process (LC-Finer).

n  Outside Italy
In Germany, Eni’s share in the Schwedt refinery is 8.3% and 20% in Bayernoil, an integrated industrial hub that includes Vohburg and Neustadt refineries. Eni’s refining capacity in Germany is approximately 60 kbbl/d mainly to supply Eni’s distribution network in Bavaria and Eastern Germany.
In the Czech Republic, Eni owns a share of 32.4% in the Céska Rafinérská which owns and operates two refineries, Kralupy and Litvinov. Eni’s refining capacity amounts to about 53 kbbl/d. The divestment of Eni’s interest is ongoing.

2. Logistics

Eni is a primary operator in storage and transport of petroleum products in Italy with its logistical integrated infrastructure consisting of 18 directly managed storage sites and a network of petroleum product pipelines for products sale and storage of LPG and crude. Eni’s logistic model is based on a hub structure covering five main areas. These hubs monitor and centralize product flows in order to lower collection and delivery costs. Eni holds five partnerships with major Italian operators located in the Vado Ligure-Genoa (Petrolig), Arquata Scrivia (Sigemi), Venice (Petroven), Ravenna (Petra) and Trieste (DCT) sites, they reduce logistic costs, and increase efficiency.
Eni operates in oil and refined products transport: (i) by sea through spot and long-term contracts of tanker ships; and (ii) through an owned pipeline network extending 1,462-kilometer long. Secondary distribution to retail and wholesale markets is carried out through outsourcing to little tanker owners and represent leading market positions in their own geographical area.

3. Marketing

n  Retail sales in Italy
Eni is a leader in the Italian retail market of refined products with a 25.5% market share, down by 2 percentage points from 2013.

In 2014, retail sales in Italy of 6.14 mmtonnes decreased by approximately 0.50 mmtonnes, or by 7.5% compared to 2013, driven by lower consumption of all products amidst weak demand. Average gasoline and gasoil throughput (1,534 kliters) decreased by approximately 124 kliters from 2013.
At December 31, 2014, Eni’s retail network in Italy consisted of 4,592 service stations, 170 stations less compared to December 31, 2013 (4,762 service stations), resulting from the negative balance of the closing of service stations with low throughput (97 units), lack of renewal of two motorway concessions and a negative balance of acquisitions/releases of lease concessions (71 units).
By means of the fidelity "you&eni" program, launched in February 2010 and lasting five years, as of December 31, 2014, approximately 1.9 million customers effected at least one transaction within the program of which, approximately 1 million was represented by consumer and loyalty cards. In 2014, volumes sold to customers accumulating points on their cards accounted for approximately 37% of all network throughputs, net of iperself throughputs which do not allow to accumulate points for loyalty programs.

 

n  Retail Rest of Europe
In 2014, retail sales of refined products marketed in the rest of Europe (3.07 mmtonnes) were essentially stable (up by 0.7%). Higher volumes marketed in Germany and Austria were offset by lower sales in France and in the Czech Republic.
At December 31, 2014, Eni’s retail network in the rest of Europe consisted of 1,628 service stations, with an increase of 4 units from December 31, 2013 (1,624 service stations). The network evolution was as follows: (i) the closing of 15 low throughput service stations mainly in France; (ii) the positive balance of acquisitions/releases of lease concessions (10 units), in particular in Germany and Switzerland; (iii) the purchase of 8 service stations, mainly in Germany; and (iv) the opening of 1 new outlet. Average throughput (2,258 kliters) decreased by 64 kliters compared to a year ago (2,322 kliters in 2013).

4. Wholesale business

Fuels
Eni markets gasoline and other fuels on the wholesale market in Italy, including diesel fuel for automotive use and for heating purposes, for agricultural vehicles and for vessels and fuel oil. Major customers are resellers, manufacturing industries, service companies, public utilities and transports, as well as final users (transporters, condominiums, farmers, fishers, etc.). Eni provides its customers with its expertise in the area of fuels with a wide range of products that cover all market requirements. Customer care and product distribution is supported by a widespread commercial and logistical organization presence all over Italy and articulated in local marketing offices and a network of agents and concessionaires.

In 2014, sales volumes on wholesale markets in Italy (7.57 mmtonnes) declined by approximately 800 ktonnes, down by 9.6%, mainly due to lower sales of all products, in particular gasoil for heating reflecting the mild climate registered in the period, as well as fuel oil and bunkering due to declining demand. Average market share in 2014 was 26.7% (28.8% in 2013). Supplies to the petrochemical industry (0.97 mmtonnes) decreased from 2013 (down by 350 ktonnes) due to lower feedstock supplies. Wholesale sales in the Rest of Europe of approximately 4.60 mmtonnes increased by 8.7% from 2013 due to increased sales in Czech Republic, Hungary and France. Other sales (21.63 mmtonnes) increased by 2.18 mmtonnes, or 11.2%, mainly due to higher sales to the other oil companies.

Eni also markets jet fuel directly at 51 airports, of which 30 are in Italy. In 2014, these sales amounted to 2.1 mmtonnes (of which 1.6 mmtonnes are in Italy). Eni is also active in the international market of bunkering, marketing marine fuel, mainly in 115 ports, of which 65 are in Italy. In 2014, marine fuel sales were 1.38 mmtonnes (1.26 mmtonnes in Italy).

LPG
In Italy, Eni is leader in LPG production, marketing and sale with 590 ktonnes sold for heating and automotive use equal to a 20% market share. An additional 289 ktonnes of LPG were marketed through other

  channels mainly to oil companies and traders. LPG activities in Italy are supported by direct production, availability from 5 bottling plants and 1 owned storage site, in addition to products imported at coastal storage sites located in Livorno, Naples and Ravenna.
Outside Italy, LPG sales in 2014 amounted to 549 ktonnes of which 410 ktonnes in Ecuador where LPG market share is approximately 37.9%.

Lubricants
Eni operates six (owned and co-owned) blending plants, in Italy, Europe, North and South America and the Far East. With a wide range of products composed of over 650 different blends Eni masters international state of art know-how for the formulation of products for vehicles (engine oil, special fluids and transmission oils) and industries lubricants for hydraulic systems, industrial machinery and metal processing. In Italy, Eni is leader in the manufacture and sale of lubricant bases. Base oils are manufactured primarily at Eni’s refinery in Livorno. Eni also owns one facility for the production of additives and solvents in Robassomero in Turin area. In 2014, retail and wholesale sales in Italy amounted to 90 ktonnes with a 23.4% market share. Eni also sold approximately 3 ktonnes of special products (white oils, transformer oil and anti-freeze fluids). Outside Italy sales amounted to approximately 100 ktonnes, of these about 92% were registered in Europe.

Oxygenates
Eni, through its subsidiary Ecofuel (100% Eni’s share), sells approximately 1 mmtonnes/y of oxygenates, mainly ethers (approximately 2.9% of world demand) and methanol (approximately 0.1% of world demand). About 81% of oxygenates are produced in Eni’s plants in Italy (Ravenna), Saudi Arabia (in joint venture with Sabic) and the remaining 19% is bought and resold. Eni distributes bio-ETBE in the Italian market in compliance with the new legislation indicating minimum content of bio-fuels. Bio-ETBE like MTBE is an octane booster gained a relevant position in the formulation of gasoline in European Union, because it is produced from ethanol from agricultural crops and qualified as bio-component in European directive on bio-fuels. In Italy from January 2014, the mandatory minimum content of bio-components in the fuels has been kept constant to 4.5 and Eni covered this bio-regulation request through the blending of Bio-ETBE and bio-diesel of 1st and 2nd generation (FAME and Green Diesel from Porto Marghera site).

Performance of the year

I In 2014, the injury frequency rate (employees and contractors) was more than halved (down by 50.9%) compared to 2013, continuing the positive trend registered in the last years.
I In 2014, greenhouse gas emissions and other emissions in the atmosphere were lower than in 2013 (down by 16.3%), following the substantial restructuring of the production assets of Versalis through the closure of the Hythe site, as well as the shutdown of the petrochemical site of Porto Marghera for almost all 2014. Recycled/reused freshwater rate improved, up to 87.7%.
I In 2014, adjusted net loss was euro 277 million, euro 61 million lower than in 2013, benefiting from the improvement of margins in intermediates and polyethylene reported in the last part of the year. This was achieved against the backdrop of continued weakness in commodity demand and increasing competition from non-EU producers. Results reflected efficiency initiatives and restructuring programs, mainly relating to the start-up of the Porto Torres green chemical project and the shutdown of certain unprofitable production units.
  I Sales of petrochemical products amounted to 3,463 ktonnes, down by 322 ktonnes, or 8.5% from 2013, driven by decrease in consumption.
I In 2014, the expenditure in R&D amounted to approximately euro 40 million. 14 patent applications were filed.

Restructuring of petrochemical activities in Sardinia
I In June 2014, the green chemical project of Matrìca, a 50/50 joint venture between Versalis and Novamont, started operations marking the full conversion of the Porto Torres site. Matrìca’s plant is currently leveraging on innovative technology to transform vegetable oils into monomers and intermediates that are feedstock for the production of complex bio-products destined for a number of industries such as the tyre industry, bio-lubricants and plastic production. The overall production capacity of approximately 70 ktonnes per year will come gradually online during 2015. Cracking production line was definitively closed.

At the end of December 2014, Versalis signed an agreement to divest the Sarroch plant to the refining company Saras, which owns a refinery close to Eni’s petrochemical site. The agreement includes the disposal of the Versalis plants connected with the production cycle of the refinery, in particular the reforming unit, the propylene splitter unit and other related services, including the logistics system.

Porto Marghera Green Chemical project
I In November 2014, Eni defined with the Ministry for Economic Development and the interested stakeholders a plan to restore the profitability of the petrochemical plant at Porto Marghera.
The project, in partnership with the US-based company Elevance Renewable Science Inc, envisages building of world-scale plants which are the first of their kind and the new technology for the production of bio-chemical intermediates from vegetable oils destined for high added-value industrial

  applications such as detergents, bio-lubricants and chemicals for the oil industry.

Development and sustainability initiatives
I In November 2014, Versalis signed a partnership with Solazyme, an US-based renewable oil and bio-products company, aimed to expand market access and commercial use of EncapsoTM, the world’s first commercially-available, biodegradable encapsulated lubricants for drilling fluids.
I Following the strategic partnership signed in 2013 with Yulex, an US-based leader in biomaterials, to produce guayule-based biorubber by using non-food feedstock, is under development the agronomic protocol and the innovative technology engineering, through the development of the entire supply chain, from the cultivation to the extraction of natural rubber, until the construction of a biomass power station.

 

     Strategy    
   
Versalis was negatively affected by a steep decline in market demand and increasing competitive pressure, mainly in commodity business with lower technological content. In this scenario, the priority is the economic sustainability of Versalis in the medium and long term. The breakeven for adjusted operating profit and operating cash flow is expected to be achieved starting from 2016, performing and completing the following strategic guidelines: (i) critical sites reconversions (in particular Porto Torres, Priolo, Porto Marghera, Sarroch and Hythe) with the shutdown and/or divestment of no more competitive production and consolidation of the other businesses; (ii) refocusing on high value-added productions (i.e. specialties) also through the development of green chemistry; and (iii) empowerment of productive platform by means of the internationalization of the business to serve consumers even more global and markets feature by high growth of demand rate, also through strategic alliances signed with industrial players.



 

The materials produced by Versalis are obtained following a manufacturing cycle which involves several processing stages. Virgin naphtha, a raw material which is a distillation product from petroleum, undergoes thermal cracking also known as steam-cracking.
The component molecules split into simpler molecules: monomers (ethylene, propylene, butadiene, etc.) and into blends of aromatic compounds.
The monomers are then reconstituted into more complex molecules: polymers. The following are produced from polymers: polyethylene, styrenes and elastomers used by processing companies to produce a whole variety of products for everyday use.
The blends of aromatic compounds, properly treated, are used to produce intermediates, so-called because they are used in the manufacturing of products for everyday use.

Eni Fact Book Versalis

Eni through Versalis performs activities of production and marketing of petrochemical products (basic petrochemicals and polymers), leveraging on a wide range of proprietary technologies, advanced production facilities, as well as a large and efficient retail network present in 17 European countries.

Versalis’ portfolio of patents and proprietary technologies covers the whole field of basic petrochemicals and polymers: phenol and its derivatives, polyethylene, styrenes and elastomers, as well as catalysts and special chemical products.
As a producer of intermediates, all types of polyethylene and a wide range of elastomers/lattices and of the complete line of styrenic products, Versalis continues in the development of its proprietary technologies supported by the experience it gained in production and R&D. This approach favored the optimization of the design of equipment and plants, of their performance, of proprietary catalysts and other products

  that allowed it to achieve excellence in all technologies in the specific business areas in order to compete in markets worldwide. A key role is played by the most innovative proprietary catalysts, particularly those based on zeolites developed by Versalis as building blocks of some of its most advanced technologies and available worldwide.
The principal objective of basic petrochemicals is granting the adequate availability of monomers (ethylene, butadiene and benzene) covering the needs of further production processes: in particular olefins production is strictly linked with the polyethylene and elastomers business, aromatics grant the benzene availability necessary to produce intermediate products used in the production of resins, artificial fibers and polystyrene. In polymers business Versalis is one of the most relevant European producers of elastomers, where it is present in almost all the relevant sectors (in particular, in the automotive industry), polystyrene and polyethylene, whose most relevant use is in flexible packaging.

 

Business areas

Intermediates
Basic petrochemicals are one of the pillars of the activities of Versalis, whose products have a range of important industrial uses, such as the production of polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC and polystyrene. They are also used in the production of petrochemical intermediates that converge, in turn, into a range of other productive processes: plastics, rubbers, fibers, solvents and lubricants.
Intermediates revenues (euro 2,310 million) decreased by euro 399 million from 2013 (down by 14.7%) reflecting the shutdown of Porto Marghera cracker, with an effect on sold volumes of aromatics and derivatives. Lower butadiene sales (down by 31%) and xylene (down by 34%) were attributable to market weakness and production overcapacity in Europe. Average unit prices decreased by 2%, with aromatics price lowered by 7% (in particular xylene prices decreased by 15% due to demand weakness), olefins prices by 1% due to lower ethylene and butadiene prices, almost completely offset by higher prices of propylene.
Intermediates production (2,972 ktonnes) registered a decrease from the last year (down by 490 ktonnes, or 14.2%) due to reductions in olefins (down by 11%) and in aromatics (down by 31%) driven by

  the shutdown of Porto Marghera plant from February until the end of the year, as well as lower productions in Sarroch plant. In addition, derivatives productions decreased by 10% due to disruptions and maintenance standstills registered in the second part of the year.

Polymers
In the polymers business Versalis is active in the production of:
- polyethylene that accounts for approximately 40% of the total volume of world production of plastic materials. It is a basic plastic material, used as a raw material by companies that transform it into a wide range of goods;
- styrenics that are polymeric materials based on styrenes that are used in a very large number of sectors through a range of transformation technologies. The most common applications are for industrial packaging and in the food industry, small and large electrical appliances, building isolation, electrical and electronic devices, household appliances, car components and toys; and
- elastomers that are polymers characterized by high elasticity that allow them to regain their original shape even after having been subjected to extensive deformation. Versalis has a leading position

Eni Fact Book Versalis

in this sector and produces a wide range of products for the following sectors: tyres, footwear, adhesives, building components, pipes, electrical cables, car components and sealing, household appliances; they can be used as modifiers for plastics and bitumens, as additives for lubricating oils (solid elastomers); carpet backing, paper coating, molded foams (synthetic latex). Versalis is one of the world's major producers of elastomers and synthetic latex.

Polymers revenues (euro 2,800 million) decreased by euro 133 million, or by 4.5% from 2013 due to average unit prices and volumes of elastomers decreasing by 8% and 5%, respectively, driven by continuing weakness of automotive sectored demand and low price of Asian producers. These negatives were further exacerbated by the decrease of average styrenics prices (down by 4%) and sold volumes down by 4%, also due to new import flows coming from North Africa. Polyethylene prices were barely unchanged.
In the elastomers segment, a partial recovery in sales was registered in thermoplastic rubbers (up by 9%), special rubbers EPDM (up by 5%), that partially compensate lower sales of commodity rubbers (SBR

  down by 11% and BR down by 3%), nitrilic (down by 9%) and lattices (down by 19%). Lower sales of styrenes (down by 4%) is attributable to lower volumes sold of compact polystyrene (down by 4%), due to demand weakness, monomer styrol (down by 15%) due to lower production availability in Europe following the planned shutdown. The sold volumes of polyethylene reported an increase due to higher sales of HDPE (up by 7%), Eva (up by 9%) and LLDPE (up by 1%) driven by lower supply in Europe. LDPE sales decreased by 2.5%.

Polymers production (2,311 ktonnes) decreased by 1.9% from 2013, mainly in elastomers segment (down by 8%), due to the definitive closing of Hythe with lower production of lattices and SBR rubbers, and of BR rubbers due to declining demand. Styrene productions decreased by 4% with lower volumes of styrol (down by 5%) due to the planned shutdown of the second half of 2014 and compact polystyrene (down by 6%), partly offset by higher productions of ABS/San (up by 11%) for short-term production rescheduling. Polyethylene sales increased by 2%, due to higher production at Brindisi site (HDPE up by 5%) due to the planned standstill of olefin production lines, and Eva in the Oberhausen site (up by 53%).

Offshore drilling

Saipem is the only engineering and construction contractor that provides both offshore and onshore drilling services to oil companies. In the offshore drilling segment, Saipem mainly operates in West Africa, the North Sea, the Mediterranean Sea and the Middle East and boasts significant market positions in the most complex segments of deep and ultra-deep offshore, leveraging on the outstanding technical features of its drilling platforms and vessels, capable of drilling exploration and development wells at a maximum water depth of 9,200 meters. In parallel, investments are ongoing to renew and to keep up the production capacity of other fleet equipment (upgrade equipment to the characteristics of projects or to clients’ needs and purchase of support equipment).
In 2014, revenues amounted to euro 1,192 million, barely unchanged from 2013. This was mainly attributable to the increased operations of the semi-submersible rigs Scarabeo 5 and Scarabeo 6, which underwent upgrade works in 2013, whose effects were partially offset by lower levels of activity performed by semi-submersible rigs Scarabeo 7, due to upkeeping works performed.
Orders acquired in the year amounted to euro 722 million (euro 1,401 million in 2013), mainly related to: (i) a contract for the lease of the semi-submersible Scarabeo 7, for the drilling at least, twelve wells, to be carried out by the first quarter of 2017, for Eni Muara Bakau BV in Indonesia; (ii) a one-year extension of the contract on behalf of Saudi Aramco for the lease of the jack-up Perro Negro

  7, for operations in Saudi Arabia; and (iii) a two-year extension of the contract on behalf of NDC (National Drilling Co) for the lease of the jack-up Perro Negro 2 for operations in the Persian Gulf starting in January 2015. During the year the company prosecuted in the development of new techniques and rigs for drilling activities in frontier areas such as Artic Sea.

Onshore drilling

Saipem operates in this segment as contractor for the major international and national oil companies executing its activity mainly in South America, Saudi Arabia, North Africa and, at a lower extent, in Europe.
In these areas Saipem can leverage its knowledge of the market, long-term relations with customers and synergies and integration with other business areas. Saipem boasts a solid track record in remote areas (in particular in the Caspian Sea), leveraging on its own operational skills and its ability to operate in complex environments.
In 2014, revenues amounted to euro 714 million, barely unchanged from 2013. Lower levels of activities in South America and Algeria were almost completely absorbed by higher levels of activities in Saudi Arabia. Orders acquired in the year amounted to euro 852 million (euro 887 million in 2013), mainly related to: (i) for various clients in Latin America (mainly in Venezuela and Peru), new contracts for the lease of rigs; and (ii) a one-year extension of the charter for operations in Saudi Arabia, on behalf of Saudi Aramco, for three rigs already operating in the Country plus the award of a five year contract for a further three rigs.

Non-GAAP measures

Reconciliation of reported operating profit and reported net profit to results on an adjusted basis

Management evaluates Group and business performance on the basis of adjusted operating profit and adjusted net profit, which are arrived at by excluding inventory holding gains or losses, special items and, in determining the business segments’ adjusted results, finance charges on finance debt and interest income. The adjusted operating profit of each business segment reports gains and losses on derivative financial instruments entered into to manage exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates which impact industrial margins and translation of commercial payables and receivables. Accordingly also currency translation effects recorded through profit and loss are reported within business segments’ adjusted operating profit. The taxation effect of the items excluded from adjusted operating or net profit is determined based on the specific rate of taxes applicable to each of them (27.5%). The Italian statutory tax rate is applied to finance charges and income. Adjusted operating profit and adjusted net profit are non-GAAP financial measures under either IFRS, or US GAAP. Management includes them in order to facilitate a comparison of base business performance across periods, and to allow financial analysts to evaluate Eni’s trading performance on the basis of their forecasting models.

The following is a description of items that are excluded from the calculation of adjusted results.
Inventory holding gain or loss is the difference between the cost of sales of the volumes sold in the period based on the cost of supplies of the same period and the cost of sales of the volumes sold calculated using the weighted average cost method of inventory accounting.

Special items include certain significant income or charges pertaining to either: (i) infrequent or unusual events and transactions, being identified as non-recurring items under such circumstances; (ii) certain events or transactions which are not considered to be representative of the ordinary course of business, as in the case of environmental provisions, restructuring charges, asset impairments or write ups and gains or losses on divestments even though they occurred in past periods or are likely to occur in

  future ones; or (iii) exchange rate differences and derivatives relating to industrial activities and commercial payables and receivables, particularly exchange rate derivatives to manage commodity pricing formulas which are quoted in a currency other than the functional currency. Those items are reclassified in operating profit with a corresponding adjustment to net finance charges, notwithstanding the handling of foreign currency exchange risks is made centrally by netting off naturally occurring opposite positions and then dealing with any residual risk exposure in the exchange rate market.
As provided for in Decision No. 15519 of July 27, 2006 of the Italian market regulator (CONSOB), non-recurring material income or charges are to be clearly reported in the management’s discussion and financial tables. Also, special items allow to allocate to future reporting periods gains and losses on re-measurement at fair value of certain non hedging commodity derivatives and exchange rate derivatives relating to commercial exposures, lacking the criteria to be designed as hedges, including the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges and certain derivative financial instruments embedded in the pricing formula of long-term gas supply agreements of the Exploration & Production segment.

Finance charges or income related to net borrowings excluded from the adjusted net profit of business segments are comprised of interest charges on finance debt and interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents not related to operations.
Therefore, the adjusted net profit of business segments includes finance charges or income deriving from certain segment operated assets, i.e., interest income on certain receivable financing and securities related to operations and finance charge pertaining to the accretion of certain provisions recorded on a discounted basis (as in the case of the asset retirement obligations in the Exploration & Production segment). Finance charges or interest income and related taxation effects excluded from the adjusted net profit of the business segments are allocated on the aggregate Corporate and financial companies.

For a reconciliation of adjusted operating profit, adjusted net profit to reported operating profit and reported net profit see tables below.

Oil and natural gas reserves

Eni’s criteria concerning evaluation and classification of proved developed and undeveloped reserves follow Regulation S-X 4-10 of the US Securities and Exchange Commission and have been disclosed in accordance with FASB Extractive Activities - Oil & Gas (Topic 932).
Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible, from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations, prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a reasonable time. Existing economic conditions include prices and costs at which economic producibility from a reservoir is to be determined. The price shall be the average price during the 12-month period prior to the ending date of the period covered by the report, determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within such period, unless prices are defined by contractual arrangements, excluding escalations based upon future conditions. In 2014, the average price for the marker Brent crude oil was $101 per barrel. Net proved reserves exclude interests and royalties owned by others. Proved reserves are classified as either developed or undeveloped. Developed oil and gas reserves are reserves that can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods or in which the cost of the required equipment is relatively minor compared to the cost of a new well. Undeveloped oil and gas reserves are reserves of any category that are expected to be recovered from new wells on undrilled acreage, or from existing wells where a relatively major expenditure is required for recompletion. Since 1991, Eni has requested qualified independent oil engineering companies to carry out an independent evaluation of part of its proved reserves on a rotational basis. The description of qualifications of the person primarily responsible of the reserves audit is included in the third party audit report1. In the preparation of their reports, independent evaluators rely, without independent verification, upon data furnished by Eni with respect to property interest, production, current costs of operation and development, sale agreements, prices and other factual information and data that were accepted as represented by the independent evaluators. These data, equally used by Eni in its internal process, include logs, directional surveys, core and PVT (Pressure Volume Temperature) analysis, maps, oil/gas/water production/injection data of wells, reservoir studies and technical analysis relevant to field performance, long-term development plans, future capital and operating costs. In order to calculate the economic value of Eni equity reserves, actual prices applicable to

  hydrocarbon sales, price adjustments required by applicable contractual arrangements, and other pertinent information are provided. In 2014, Ryder Scott Company and DeGolyer and MacNaughton2 provided an independent evaluation of about 27% of Eni’s total proved reserves as of December 31, 20143, confirming, as in previous years, the reasonableness of Eni’s internal evaluations. In the three-year period from 2012 to 2014, 94% of Eni’s total proved reserves were subject to independent evaluation. As of December 31, 2014, the principal properties not subjected to independent evaluation in the last three years are M’Boundi (Congo) and Junin 5 (Venezuela). Eni operates under production sharing agreements, in several of the foreign jurisdictions where it has oil and gas exploration and production activities. Reserves of oil and natural gas to which Eni is entitled under PSAs arrangements are shown in accordance with Eni’s economic interest in the volumes of oil and natural gas estimated to be recoverable in future years.
Such reserves include estimated quantities allocated to Eni for recovery of costs, income taxes owed by Eni but settled by its joint venture partners (which are state-owned entities) out of Eni’s share of production and Eni’s net equity share after cost recovery. Proved oil and gas reserves associated with PSAs represented 47%, 51% and 50% of total proved reserves as of December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively, on an oil-equivalent basis. Similar effects as PSAs apply to service and "buy-back" contracts; proved reserves associated with such contracts represented 2%, 3% and 3% of total proved reserves on an oil-equivalent basis as of December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively.
Oil and gas reserves quantities include: (i) oil and natural gas quantities in excess of cost recovery which the Company has an obligation to purchase under certain PSAs with governments or authorities, whereby the Company serves as producer of reserves. Reserves volumes associated with oil and gas deriving from such obligation represent 1.1%, 1% and 0.6% of total proved reserves as of December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively, on an oil equivalent basis; (ii) volumes of natural gas used for own consumption; and (iii) the quantities of hydrocarbons related to the Angola LNG plant.
Numerous uncertainties are inherent in estimating quantities of proved reserves, in projecting future productions and development expenditures. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and engineering and geological interpretation and evaluation. The results of drilling, testing and production after the date of the estimate may require substantial upward or downward revisions. In addition, changes in oil and natural gas prices have an effect on the quantities of Eni’s proved reserves since estimates of reserves are based on prices and costs relevant to the date when such estimates are made. Consequently, the evaluation of reserves could also significantly differ from actual oil and natural gas volumes that will be produced.
The following table presents yearly changes in estimated proved reserves, developed and undeveloped, of crude oil (including condensate and natural gas liquids) and natural gas as of December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014.

(1) From 1991 to 2002 DeGolyer and MacNaughton, from 2003 also Ryder Scott.
(2) The reports of independent engineers are available on Eni website eni.com, section Publications/Annual Report 2014.
(3) Including reserves of equity-accounted entities.

Standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows

Estimated future cash inflows represent the revenues that would be received from production and are determined by applying the year-end average prices during the years ended.
Future price changes are considered only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements. Estimated future development and production costs are determined by estimating the expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves at the end of the year. Neither the effects of price and cost escalations nor expected future changes in technology and operating practices have been considered.
The standardized measure is calculated as the excess of future cash inflows from proved reserves less future costs of producing and developing the reserves, future income taxes and a yearly 10% discount factor.
Future production costs include the estimated expenditures related to the production of proved reserves plus any production taxes without consideration of future inflation. Future development costs include
  the estimated costs of drilling development wells and installation of production facilities, plus the net costs associated with dismantlement and abandonment of wells and facilities, under the assumption that year-end costs continue without considering future inflation. Future income taxes were calculated in accordance with the tax laws of the countries in which Eni operates.
The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, related to the preceding proved oil and gas reserves, is calculated in accordance with the requirements of FASB Extractive Activities - Oil & Gas (Topic 932).
The standardized measure does not purport to reflect realizable values or fair market value of Eni’s proved reserves. An estimate of fair value would also take into account, among other things, hydrocarbon resources other than proved reserves, anticipated changes in future prices and costs and a discount factor representative of the risks inherent in the oil and gas exploration and production activity.

Our business model Eni in 2014

Our business model


Eni’s business model targets the delivery of long-term value to its stakeholders. This will leverage on profitable production growth, restructuring the mid-downstream businesses, efficiency and operational excellence and managing the operational risks. Our business model is underpinned by our relentless focus on capital stewardship, environmental conservation, attention to local communities, preservation of health and safety of people working in Eni and with Eni, respect of human rights and endorsement of ethics and transparency. The main capitals used by Eni (financial capital, productive capital, intellectual capital, natural capital, human capital,   social and relationship capital) are classified in accordance with the criteria included in the "International IR Framework" published by the International Integrated Reporting Council (IIRC). 2014 financial results and sustainability performance rely on the responsible and efficient use of our capitals.
Hereunder is articulated the map of the main capitals exploited by Eni and actions positively effecting on their quality and availability. At the same time, the scheme evidences how the efficient use of capitals and related connections create value for the Company and its stakeholders.

Our strategy Eni in 2014

Our strategy


 

In order to manage a radically changed price environment, the Company outlined for the next four-year period an action plan which comprises a number of rigorous initiatives and objectives in order to mitigate the impact of lower oil prices and to preserve a robust financial structure, particularly in the short to medium term. Our oil price assumptions for the Brent benchmark are $55 per barrel in 2015 and we expect a gradual recovery in the subsequent years up to our long-term case of $90 per barrel. Against the backdrop of a low price environment in the short to medium term, our primary target remains cash generation which will be underpinned by well-designed industrial actions, capital discipline, focus on Exploration & Production activities and a large disposal plan. In approving the capital expenditure plan the Company selected high-return projects with short pay-back periods; this optimization will result in a euro 48 billion capital expenditures in the next four years, down by approximately 17% compared to the previous plan, net of exchange rate effects. The disposal plan, amounting to more than euro 8 billion in the 2015-2018 period, is based on the anticipated monetization of exploratory discoveries, optimization of the upstream portfolio, rationalization of midstream and downstream portfolio, and the divestment of residual interests in Snam and Galp. The Company forecasts that the planned industrial actions, the selective approach to capital expenditure and the disposal plan will enable Eni to preserve a robust financial structure and we plan to maintain the leverage below the threshold of 0.30 throughout the oil cycle. As part of its effort to preserve liquidity and the balance sheet, the Company decided to rebase the dividend as it is planning to pay a dividend of euro 0.8 per share for fiscal year 2015.
In the subsequent years, management will reassess its progressive dividend policy against the backdrop of an expected improvement in the oil price scenario and the planned growth in our cash generation as our value-generation strategy in Exploration & Production and our turnaround of Gas & Power, Refining & Marketing and Versalis progress on targets.

 

The planned reduction in capital expenditure, which will foresee a 17% reduction versus the previous plan at constant exchange rate assumptions, will leverage on:
• a reduction in exploration expenditure which will be mainly focused on low-risk activities, particularly on replacing produced reserves in proven areas and nearby producing assets;
• a reduction in development expenditure by rescheduling the activities at certain large projects without jeopardizing the achievement of the Company’s targets of production growth;
• a reduction of capital expenditure in refining and chemicals due to the shutdown of certain plants which will require fewer investments than in the past and the disposal of certain assets under development like the divestment of our interest in the South Stream project which was defined at the end of 2014; and
• renegotiations of contracts for oilfield services and other supplies in our Exploration & Production segment.

In conclusion, the strategic transformation we started last May aims at making Eni more focused on exploration and production activities and more profitable by streamling the organization, turning around loss-making segments and diluting our presence in non-core activities.

2014

 

Highlights




Performance of the year
è 2014 marked our strong focusing in HSE activities with significant improvements in all KPIs:
- the injury frequency rate confirmed the positive 2013 performance;
- greenhouse gas emissions decreased by 11.3% (down by 33.5% from flaring);
- oil spills due to operations decreased by 46%;
- zero blow-outs for the eleventh consecutive year; and
- water re-injection reported a new record at 56% of water reused in operations.
è Adjusted net profit declined by euro 1,527 million, or 25.7%, due to lower crude oil and gas prices in dollar terms (down
  by 8.9% on average) reflecting a falling Brent crude benchmark and a weak gas market, especially in Europe.
è Oil and natural gas production was 1.598 million boe/d in 2014 (up by 0.6% compared to the previous year), excluding the impact of the divestment of Eni’s interest in Siberian assets.
è Estimated net proved reserves at December 31, 2014 amounted to 6.6 bboe based on a reference Brent price of $101 per barrel. The reserves replacement ratio was 112%. The reserves life index was 11.3 years (11.1 years in 2013).
è Development expenditure was euro 9,021 million (up by 5.1% from 2013) to
  progress major projects and to maintain production plateau particularly in Norway, Angola, Congo, the United States, Italy, Nigeria, Egypt, Indonesia and Kazakhstan.
è Eni continued its track record of exploratory success. Additions to the Company’s resource backlog were approximately 900 million boe, at a competitive cost of $2.1 per barrel.

Exploration and development activities
è Near-field discoveries marked the year’s exploration activity; such discoveries are expected to achieve quick time-to-market leveraging on the synergies from the front-end-loading

and the utilization of existing production infrastructures:
- Ochigufu in the Angolan deep waters of Block 15/06 (Eni operator with a 35% interest) with a potential in place estimated at approximately 300 million barrels of oil;
- Minsala in the conventional waters of Block Marine XII (Eni operator with a 65% interest) in Congo, increasing the block’s resources in place by 1 billion barrels;
- Oglan in Block 10 (Eni operator with a 100% interest) in Ecuador, with a potential in place estimated at approximately 300 million barrels of oil;
- Merakes in East Sepinggan offshore block (Eni operator with a 85% interest) in Indonesia, with a potential of gas in place estimated at approximately 2 Tcf;
  - Nyonie in Block D4 (Eni operator with a 100% interest) in the conventional waters of Gabon, showed an estimated potential of approximately 500 million boe in place of gas and condensates; and
- the appraisal wells at the Agulha and Coral gas discoveries in Mozambique confirmed reach and extension of their respective reservoirs with a potential in place in Area 4 (Eni operator with a 50% interest) estimated at approximately 88 Tcf.
è Our acreage was strengthened by adding 100,000 square kilometers net to Eni, which puts us in a position to restart a new exploration cycle. Main licenses were located in high potential areas such as Myanmar, Portugal, South Africa and Vietnam, as well as legacy areas such as Algeria, China,
  Egypt, Norway, the United Kingdom and the United States.
è The West Hub Development Project in Block 15/06 achieved the first oil late in 2014. This is the first Eni-operated project in Angola, with production ramp-up expected to reach a plateau of up to 100 kbbl/d in the coming months.
è Production start-up achieved at the recent Nené discovery in Block Marine XII in Congo. The full-field development will take place in several stages, with a plateau of over 120 kbbl/d.
è Sanctioned the integrated oil&gas project of the Offshore Cape Three Points (Eni operator with a 47.22% interest) in Ghana. First oil is expected in 2017, first gas in 2018 and production is expected to peak at 80 kboe/d.

 

| Strategies

Our upstream growth model will continue to focus on the organic development of conventional assets, with large resource base and competitive cost structure. Those features will safeguard the profitability of our oil&gas projects even in a low price environment.
The sizeable exploration successes of the latest years have increased the Company’s resource base and have contributed to the Company’s value generation through early monetization of the discovered resources in excess of the target replacement ratio.
Going forward our top priority in E&P is to enhance cash generation leveraging on profitable production growth and the monetization of the discovered resources.

In the next four years, against the backdrop of weak crude oil prices, we intend to monetize our resources by:
n re-balancing exploration activities in favor of near-field initiatives to ensure fast support to production;
n rejuvenating the portfolio of exploration leases; and
n accelerating the development of discovered resources.

We plan to grow production at an average rate of 3.5% over the next four years, leveraging on a robust pipeline of projects with an average break-even of $45 per boe, which together with the ramp-ups at fields started up in 2014 will add more than 650 kboe/d in 2018. This new production will bring an additional cumulative cash flow of euro 19 billion in the 2015-2018 plan periods. The main planned start-ups are the Goliat field (Eni operator with a 65% interest) in the Barents Sea in Norway, the oil&gas project of Offshore Cape Three Points (Eni operator with a 47.22% interest) in Ghana, the Jangkrik project (Eni operator with a 55% interest) in Indonesia and production re-start of Kashagan field

  (Eni’s interest 16.81%) by the end of 2016. The profitability of these projects will be ensured by tight control on execution and time-to-market leveraging on our new development approach whereby we insourced critical project phases. To cope with falling oil prices we plan to be selective in our capital allocation decisions. In 2015-2018 plan periods, we expect a decrease of approximately 13% of capital expenditure net of exchange rate effects versus the previous four-year plan due to a reduction in exploration expenditures which will be focused on near-field and appraisal activities, the re-phasing certain projects yet to be sanctioned, as well as we plan to achieve cost savings by renegotiating contracts for the supply of oilfield services, equipment and other upstream goods.
Finally, we intend to manage the typical upstream risks. A major part of our activities are currently located in countries that are far from high-risk areas and Eni plans to growth mainly in countries with low-mid political risk (approximately 90% of the capital expenditure of the four-year plan). We plan to control the environmental risk by means of strict selection of contractors, and by retaining operatorship in a large number of projects (84% of production related to start-ups). Execution of drilling activities at high pressure/high temperature wells and deep waters wells (24% of planned wells to be drilled in 2015) will be managed by continually deploying our high operational standards.

| Maintaining strong production growth

Eni’s Exploration & Production segment engages in oil and natural gas exploration and field development and production, as well as LNG operations, in 40 countries, including Italy, Libya, Egypt, Norway, the United Kingdom, Angola, Congo, Nigeria, the United States, Kazakhstan, Algeria, Australia, Venezuela, Iraq, Ghana and Mozambique.

Exploration & Production / Business review Eni in 2014

We are targeting a production rate of 3.5% in the next four-year plan. Management plans to achieve the target production growth by continuing development activities and new project start-ups in the main areas of operations, including North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa, Barents Sea, Kazakhstan, Venezuela and the Far East, leveraging Eni’s vast knowledge of reservoirs and geological basins, as well as technical and producing synergies.
Management plans to maximize the production recovery rate at our current fields by counteracting natural field depletion and reducing facilities downtime. This will require intense development activities of work-over and infilling and careful planning of maintenance activities. We expect that continuing technological innovation and competence build-up will drive increasing rates of reserve recovery.
Management intends to implement a number of initiatives to support profitability in its upstream operations by exercising tight control on project time schedules and costs. We plan to achieve efficient development of our reserves by: (i) in-sourcing critical engineering and project management activities also redeploying to other areas key competences which will be freed with the start-up of certain strategic projects and increase direct control and governance on construction and commissioning activities; and (ii) signing framework agreements with major suppliers, using standardized specifications to speed up pre-award process for critical equipment and plants, increasing focus on supply chain programming to optimize order flows. Based on these initiatives we believe that almost all of our project which we are currently developing over the next four-year plan will be completed on time and on cost schedule.

Production and reserves: 2014 and outlook
In 2014, Eni’s liquids and gas production of 1,598 kboe/d increased by 0.6% from 2013, excluding the impact of the divestment of Eni’s interest in Siberian assets. The main production increases were reported in the United Kingdom, Algeria, the United States and Angola. These additions more than offset mature fields’ declines. New fields’ start-ups and continuing production ramp-ups contributed 126 kboe/d of production.
In the year we achieved the following main start-ups: (i) the West Hub Development Project in Angola. This first Eni-operated producing project in the Country is currently producing 45 kboe/d through the N’Goma FPSO, with a production ramp-up expected to reach a plateau up to 100 kboe/d in the coming months. The start-up was achieved in just 44 months from the announcement of the commercial discovery, a result that is at the top of the industry for development in deep waters. The N’Goma FPSO is currently producing from the Sangos discovery, future production will leverage the progressive hooking up of the block’s discoveries; (ii) the recent Nené Marine discovery in Congo just 8 months after obtaining the production permit. The early production phase is yielding 7,500 boe/d and the fast-track development of the field has leveraged on the synergies with the front-end loading and the infrastructures of the fields located in the area. The full-field development will take place in several stages and will include the installation of production platforms and the drilling of approximately 30 wells, with a plateau of over 120 kboe/d; and (iii) the DEKA project (Eni operator with a 50% interest) in Egypt with a production of approximately 64 mmcf/d of gas and 800 bbl/d of associated condensates. Peak production is expected at approximately 230 mmcf/d net to Eni.
Actual production volumes will vary from year to year due to

  the timing of individual project start-ups, operational outages, reservoir performance, regulatory changes, asset sales, severe weather events, price effects under production sharing contracts and other factors.
Estimated net proved reserves at December 31, 2014 amounted to 6.6 bboe based on a reference Brent price of $101 per barrel. Additions to proved reserves booked in 2014 were 654 mmboe and derived from: (i) revisions of previous estimates were 524 mmboe mainly reported in Libya, Italy, Kazakhstan and Congo due to contractual revisions, continuous development activities and field performances; (ii) extensions and discoveries were up by 124 mmboe, with major increases booked in Ghana, Indonesia, the United States and Congo following new project sanctions and proved area extensions; (iii) improved recovery were up by 6 mmboe mainly reported in Algeria and Kazakhstan; (iv) sales of mineral-in-place mainly related to the divestment of assets in Nigeria (down by 7 mmboe) and the United Kingdom (down by 1 mmboe); and (v) purchases of minerals-in-place referred mainly to interests in assets located in the United Kingdom (up by 4 mmboe).
The reserves life index was 11.3 years (11.1 years in 2013).
Eni intends to pay special attention to reserve replacement in order to ensure the medium to long-term sustainability of the business. In 2014, we achieved an all sources replacement ratio of 112% through fast sanctioning and relentless focus on field development. Going forward, our reserve replacement will be underpinned by our strong focus on exploration and timely conversion of resources into reserves and production, while at the same time fighting depletion and enhancing the recovery factor in existing fields through effective reservoir management.

| Exploration

Exploration is the engine of our strategy in the upstream business. Exploration has proved to be a driver of production growth and value generation, as well as Eni’s distinctive feature among the oil majors. Since 2008, Eni has discovered over 10 billion boe in place, corresponding to a growth of 35% in our resource base, more than every other player in the oil industry, of which approximately 900 million boe were discovered in 2014, at a competitive cost of $2.1 per boe. Near-field discoveries marked the year’s activity, in particular: (i) Ochigufu in the deep waters of Block 15/06 in Angola; (ii) in the conventional waters of Block Marine XII in Congo, Minsala was the third discovery in the last two years increasing the block’s resources in place by 1 billion barrels with characteristics similar to the previous discoveries of Litchendjili and Nené, the latter started up early production in record time; (iii) Oglan in Block 10 in Ecuador with a potential in place estimated at approximately 300 million barrels of oil located near the processing facilities of the operated field of Villano; (iv) Merakes in offshore Indonesia. This discovery with a potential in place estimated at approximately 2 Tcf, is located in proximity of the operated field of Jangkrik, which is currently under development and will supply additional gas volumes to the Bontang LNG plant; (v) the appraisal gas wells Agulha 2 and Coral 4 DIR in Mozambique, confirming the extension of their respective fields with a potential in place in Area 4 estimated at approximately 88 Tcf; (vi) Nyonie in the conventional waters of

Exploration & Production / Business review Eni in 2014

Block D4 in Gabon, with an estimated potential of approximately 500 million boe in place of gas and condensates; (vii) the oil&gas Drivis discovery made at the offshore license PL 532 (Eni 30%) in Norway, with volumes in place estimated in the range of 125 and 140 million barrels and will be put into production with the development of the Johan Castberg Hub; and (viii) the oil discovery ARM-14 in the Abu Rudeis license (Eni 100%) in the Gulf of Suez in Egypt, doubled production level in 2014. These discoveries are expected to have a rapid time-to-market leveraging on the synergies from the front-end loading of ongoing projects and utilization of existing production infrastructures.
Leveraging on these results, our exploration plan has been shaped to face the actual challenging scenario:
• by shifting focus to proven plays and near field exploration where we plan to drill 70% of our scheduled wells; and
• by reducing capital expenditure of 35% net of exchange rate effects in 2015 and 25% over the plan period. Exploration projects will attract some euro 5 billion. The most important amounts of exploration expenses will be incurred in Norway, Nigeria, the United States and Italy.
We target the discovery of 2 billion boe of new resources in the four-year plan at a very competitive cost of $2.6 per boe. We plan to anticipate cash generation by disposal of interests in our discoveries in order to balance costs/risk exposure and profitability in an optimal way, in the meanwhile ensuring the reserve replacement and balanced presence in the worldwide upstream.
We plan to mitigate the operational risk relating to drilling activities by applying Eni’s rigorous procedures throughout the engineering and execution stages by leveraging on proprietary drilling technologies, excellent skills and know-how, increased control of operations and by deploying technologies which we believe to be able to reduce blow-out risks and to enable the Company to respond quickly and effectively in case of emergencies.
We renewed our exploration portfolio through the acquisition of new acreage covering approximately 100,000 square kilometers net to Eni, along the guideline of diversifying the geographical presence. As of December 31, 2014, Eni’s mineral right portfolio consisted of 938 exclusive or shared rights of exploration and development activities for a total acreage of 334,739 square kilometers net to Eni of which developed acreage of 40,771 square kilometers and undeveloped acreage of 293,968 square kilometers net to Eni. We confirm our expansion plans in the Pacific Basin, where we signed the contracts of production sharing for the exploration of 2 onshore blocks in Myanmar and 3 offshore blocks in Vietnam, in addition to the acquisition of licenses in Indonesia, Australia and China. We also confirm our interest for the unexplored basins, following Eni’s entrance in the offshore of Portugal, South Africa and deep offshore of Egypt.

| Develop new projects to fuel future growth

Eni has a strong pipeline of development projects that will fuel the medium and long-term growth of its oil and gas production. The pipeline of projects is geographically diversified and will become even more balanced across our hubs. These projects have an average breakeven of $45 per boe and will generate an overall cash

  flow from operations of euro 19 billion in the four-year plan.
We are aiming at excellence in time-to-market in order to maximize the value of our reserves. We plan to achieve development efficiency leveraging on the integration of skills along the life cycle of the reserves and by deploying an innovative organizational model which insources engineering and retains tight control of construction and commissioning. Phased project development allowed us to mitigate operating risks and reduce the financial exposure.
This approach led to the top results in the industry such as, above mentioned, the West Hub Development Project in Angola and the Block Marine XII in Congo. The latter is the best example of our integrated approach. With the discoveries of Nené, Minsala and Litchendjili we proved that, with advanced technology and innovative geological concepts, it is feasible to unlock material upside also in mature acreage. The huge potential of this play is now about 5.5 bboe of resources and we expect further upsides from the completion of the appraisal of Minsala and the drilling of two additional prospects. In Nené, we expect FID for the second phase by the end of 2015. In addition, later this year, Litchendjili will start oil&gas production. At the end of this decade, we will achieve an overall production of 150 kboe/d.
In the next four years, we plan to start-up 16 new major fields operated by Eni. In addition to the above mentioned fields, the main projects include: (i) the Goliat field in the Barents Sea in Norway. The FPSO vessel reached Norway in April 2015 and started the final commissioning phase. Start-up is expected in the second half of 2015, with a production plateau at approximately 65 kboe/d net to Eni in 2016; (ii) the giant Perla gas field in the Block Cardon IV (Eni’s interest 50%), located in the Gulf of Venezuela. The early production start-up is expected by the second quarter of 2015 with a target production of approximately 460 mmcf/d. Production ramp-up is expected in 2017 with a target of approximately 800 mmcf/d. The development plan targets a long-term production plateau of approximately 1,200 mmcf/d in 2020; (iii) the East Hub in Block 15/06 in Angola, which will leverage on the synergies with West Hub. Production start-up is expected in 2017, contributing to an overall block production of 45 kboe/d at the end of the period; (iv) the Offshore Cape Three Points block in Ghana, with a fast track deep offshore development and time-to-market of just four years. Management plans to sanction FID in December and production start-up is targeted in 2017. The project will reach a production of about 40 kboe/d in 2019; and (v) the Jangkrik field in the Kalimantan offshore, in Indonesia. The project includes drilling of production wells linked to a Floating Production Unit for gas and condensate treatment, as well as construction of a transportation facility. Start-up is expected in 2017.
Finally we plan to achieve further cost efficiencies by: (i) increasing the scale of our operations as we concentrate our resources on larger fields than in the past where we plan to achieve economies of scale; (ii) expanding projects where we serve as operator. We believe operatorship will enable the Company to exercise better cost control, effectively manage reservoir and production operations, and deploy our safety standards and procedures to minimize risks; (iii) applying our technologies which we believe can reduce drilling and completion costs; and (iv) renegotiating contracts for oilfield services and other items to reap the benefits of the deflationary trend in the industry.

2014

 

Highlights




Performance of the year
è In 2014, employees’ and contractors’ injury frequency rates declined by 66%, in line with historical trends.
è Greenhouse gas emissions decreased by 10.2% from 2013.
è The water consumption rate of EniPower’s plants decreased by 5.9% from 2013, while the same index per KWh produced was substantially stable. The decrease was due to lower use of sea water in cooling operations at Brindisi site and lower production of electricity at Livorno site, due to an unfavorable trading environment, with steam and freshwater consumption almost unchanged from 2013.
è Eni gas sales (89.17 bcm) were down by 4.3% compared to 2013. Eni’s sales in the domestic market of 34.04 bcm
  decreased by 5.1% driven by lower sales in all the business segments partially offset by higher spot sales. Barely unchanged volumes marketed in the main European markets (42.21 bcm; down by 1.1%).
è Electricity sales of 33.58 TWh decreased by 1.47 TWh, or 4.2% compared to the previous year.
è Capital expenditure of euro 172 million mainly concerned the flexibility and upgrading of combined cycle power stations (euro 98 million), as well as gas marketing initiatives (euro 66 million).
è In 2014, adjusted net profit amounted to euro 190 million, up by euro 443 million from 2013. This reflected the benefits from the renegotiation of a substantial portion of the long-term gas supply
  portfolio, including larger one-off effects related to the purchase costs of volumes supplied in previous reporting periods. These positive effects were partially offset by declining gas and power prices against the backdrop of continuing weak demand and competitive pressure.
è In 2014, we achieved several renegotiations of our long-term gas supply contracts and we obtained a reduction in take-or-pay volumes. Approximately 70% of our long-term gas supply portfolio is now indexed to hub prices. Cash advances paid to suppliers due to the take-or-pay clause in those long-term supply contracts were reduced by euro 0.66 billion also leveraging on sales optimization.

Gas & Power / Business review Eni in 2014

| Strategies

Eni's management expects a weak outlook for natural gas sales and prices due to structural headwinds in the industry as we forecast demand stagnation, oversupplies and strong competition across all of our main markets in Europe, including Italy.
We believe that going forward reduced sales opportunities and continued pricing competition will be caused by weaker-than-anticipated demand growth which is expected to be dragged down by macroeconomic uncertainties and by the current downturn in the thermoelectric sector which will be penalized by the competition from coal which is cheaper than gas in firing power plants and the development of renewable sources of energy (photovoltaic, solar to name the most important). The absolute level of gas consumption in Europe contracted by approximately 12% in the time span from 2008 to 2013 and in 2014 gas consumption fell dramatically by a further 12%. According to our projections gas consumption will return back to 2013 levels somewhere in 2020.

Against this backdrop, European markets remains well supplied thanks to the fast development of liquid hubs where operators can trade spot gas. In 2013, approximately 62% of gas volumes supplied were traded at continental hubs. These trends will drive continuing competition and pricing pressure, which are expected to be exacerbated by the constraints of the long-term supply contracts

  with take-or-pay clauses whereby wholesaler operators are forced to compete aggressively on pricing in order to limit the financial exposure dictated by the contracts.
In Italy we expect that gas prices in the wholesale market will remain under pressure due to a number of negative factors including competitive pressure and the current level of minimum take volumes of Italian operators which are well above the absolute dimension of the Italian market. In the retail market, the regulated tariffs to residential and commercial users are currently indexed to spot prices of gas quoted at continental hubs.

Based on the above outlined trends and industrial actions, management will try to retain profitable, cash-positive operations in the Company’s gas marketing business over the plan period.

To achieve this object we intend to put in place the following strategic guidelines:
n alignment of the supply portfolio to market conditions starting from 2016, leveraging on further renegotiations;
n streamlining of operations and optimization of logistic costs; and
n development and growth in the value added segments, in particular in the retail segment, developing the client base also through the sale of extra-commodity products, as well as in the LNG segment, leveraging on the marketing opportunities in premium markets and upstream integration.

 

Gas & Power value chain

Eni’s Gas & Power segment engages in all phases of the natural gas value chain: supply, trading and marketing of natural gas and LNG. This segment also includes power generation and marketing of electricity. Eni’s leading position in the European gas market is ensured by a set of competitive advantages, including our multi-country approach, long-term gas availability, access to infrastructures, market knowledge and a strong customer base, in addition to long-term relations with producing countries. Furthermore, integration with our upstream operations provides valuables growth options whereby the Company targets to monetize its large gas reserves.

2014

 

Highlights




Performance of the year
è In 2014, the injury frequency rate for employees and contractors was down 14.9% demonstrating our continuing commitment for a more secure workplace.
è In 2014, the Refining & Marketing segment reduced the adjusted net loss to euro 147 million (euro 232 million in 2013) driven by improved margins and restructuring initiatives, including the start-up of the green refinery project in Venice, and cost efficiencies.
è In 2014, refining throughputs were 25.03 mmtonnes, down by 8.6% from 2013. In Italy, processed volumes decreased by 11.7% mainly due to the unfavorable refinery scenario registered in the first part of the year and the shutdown of the Gela and Venice refineries.
è In 2014, the production of bio-fuels amounted to 12.93 mmtonnes, up by
19.3% compared to a year ago following the start-up of the bio-refinery in Venice.
è Retail sales in Italy amounted to 6.14 mmtonnes, down by 7.5% from 2013 due to strong competitive pressure. In 2014, Eni’s average retail market share was 25.5%, down by 2 percentage points from 2013.
è Retail sales in the rest of Europe of 3.07 mmtonnes were substantially stable compared to 2013 (up by 0.7%). Higher volumes marketed in Germany and Austria were offset by lower sales of other subsidiaries.
è Capital expenditure amounted to euro 537 million mainly related to the reconversion of the Venice refinery and improvement of flexibility and yields of the other plants, in particular at Sannazzaro refinery and the rebranding of the retail distribution network.
  è In 2014, expenditure in R&D amounted to approximately euro 18 million. During the year, 15 patent applications were filed.

Portfolio rationalization
è In line with the Eni’s strategy focused on selectively growing in high profitable markets, Eni signed a preliminary agreement for the divestment of its marketing activities of fuels located in Czech Republic, Slovakia and Romania to the Hungarian Company MOL. The agreement also comprises the refinery capacity to supply the marketing network through a 32.445% interest in the joint refining asset Ceská Rafinérská as (CRC). All these agreements are subject to the approval of the relevant European Antitrust Authorities.

Development plan of the Gela site
è In November 2014, Eni defined with the Ministry for Economic Development, the Region of Sicily and interested stakeholders a plan to restore the profitability of the Gela refinery. The key point of the agreement is the reconversion of the Gela site to a bio-refinery.
è The reconversion will follow the model adopted for the Venice green refinery, by leveraging on raw vegetable materials and use of the proprietary technologies.
  The agreement also defines terms for building a modern logistic hub and new initiatives in the upstream sector in Sicily, including offshore. Eni will also perform environmental remediation and clean-up activities and institute the Safety Competence Center (SCC), a center of excellence in the security field. The investment plan for such initiatives amounts to euro 2.2 billion, mainly relating to upstream projects in the Sicily region.   Start-up of Venice bio-refinery
è In June 2014, the start-up of the bio-refinery of Porto Marghera was achieved, with a green diesel capacity of 300 ktonnes/y. The green diesel is produced from refined vegetable oil utilizing the proprietary EcofiningTM technology. The production will fulfill half of the Eni’s annual requirement of green diesel, thus ensuring new perspectives for the industrial site of Venice and allowing economic and environmental benefits.

 

| Strategies

For the next four years, the priority of Eni's Refining & Marketing segment is to return to profitability in the context of weak fundamentals of the European refining market, affected by weak demand, structural overcapacity and competitive pressure from streams of cheaper products from Asia, Russia and the United States.

Against this scenario, the Company priority is to recover the economic and financial sustainability in a short timeframe, targeting to break even at both adjusted operating profit and cash generation before investment in 2015, then to stabilize profitability and cash generation in the long run. In order to achieve this goal, our strategy in the Refining & Marketing sector will leverage on reducing and rationalizing refining capacity in order to limit the Company’s exposure to volatile refining margins, and on efficiency initiatives. We are planning for a 50% capacity cut (2012 base) which, once implemented, will bring our installed capacity in line with our targeted exposure to the refining business considering our view of industry trends and fundamentals.
Till 2014, we have delivered a 30% capacity downsizing, including the shutdown of the Venice refinery, which underwent a restructuring process to be converted into a plant for the production of bio-fuels based on a proprietary technology, and of the Gela refinery, which will be converted into a unit for the manufacturing of bio-fuels like the Venice site and into a logistic hub. Finally we signed a preliminary agreement to divest our interest in a refining asset located in the Czech Republic and we expect to close the transaction by mid 2015.

  We believe that the restructuring initiatives implemented so far have reduced the refining break-even margin. Going forward, we plan to divest our interests in certain refining assets abroad and to downsize our less competitive Italian refineries. We intend to make selective capital expenditures expecting to invest approximately euro 1 billion to improve efficiency and optimize existing plant, to complete the bio-refinery at the Venice site and to implement the Gela project.

We have defined other initiatives designed to provide for:
n optimize plant set-up and logistics operations by means of higher flexibility and process integration; and
n deliver cost efficiencies, particularly in refinery fixed expenses and energy savings.

In Marketing activities, where we expect continuing competitive pressure due to weak demand trends and oversupplies in our core domestic market, we are planning to achieve a gradual improvement in results of operations mainly by focusing on margin preservation and cost efficiencies. We will try to do this by means of effective marketing initiatives to retain customers, product and service innovation and a continuing focus on the quality of service, as well as the expansion of non-oil activities. Management plans to improve the efficiency of the Italian retail network by closing low-throughput outlets and other rationalizations. Retail operations abroad will be focused on those areas and markets where we expect attractive profitability due to an improving scenario for consumption, while we plan to divest our presence in marginal areas, mainly in Eastern Europe.

Highlights




Performance of the year
è In 2014, the injury frequency rate (employees and contractors) was more than halved (down by 50.9%) compared to 2013, in continuation of historical positive trend.
è In 2014, greenhouse gas emissions and other emissions in the atmosphere were lower than in 2013 (down by 16.3%), following the restructuring of the production assets. Recycled/reused water rate improved, up to 87.7%.
è In 2014, adjusted net loss was euro 277 million, euro 61 million lower than in 2013, benefiting from improved margins of intermediates and polyethylene. Results reflected efficiency initiatives and restructuring programs, mainly relating to the start-up of the Porto Torres Green Chemical project and the shutdown of certain unprofitable production units.
è Sales of petrochemical products amounted to 3,463 ktonnes, down by 322 ktonnes, or 8.5% from 2013, driven by weak commodity
  demand and strong competition.
è In 2014, expenditure in R&D amounted to approximately euro 40 million, 14 patent applications were filed.

Restructuring of petrochemical activities in Sardinia
è In June 2014, the Green Chemical project of Matrìca, a 50/50 joint venture between Versalis and Novamont, started operations marking the full conversion of the Porto Torres site. Matrìca’s plant is currently leveraging on an innovative technology to transform vegetable oils into monomers and intermediates that are feedstock for the production of complex production of bio-products destined among other to the tyre industry, production of bio-lubricants and plastic. The overall production capacity of approximately 70 ktonnes per year will come gradually online during 2015. The cracking production line was definitively shut down.

  è At the end of December 2014, Versalis signed an agreement to divest the Sarroch plant to the refining company Saras, which owns a refinery close to Eni’s petrochemical site. The agreement includes the disposal of the Versalis plants connected with the production cycle of the refinery, in particular the reforming unit, the propylene splitter unit and other related services, including the logistics system.

The Green Chemical project of Porto Marghera
è In November 2014, Eni defined with the Ministry for Economic Development and the interested stakeholders a plan to restore the profitability of the petrochemical plant at Porto Marghera. The project, in partnership with the US-based company Elevance Renewable Science Inc, envisages building of world-scale plants which are the first of their kind and the

new technology for the production of bio-chemical intermediates from vegetable oils destined for high added-value industrial applications such as detergents, bio-lubricants and chemicals for the oil industry.

Development and sustainability initiatives
è In November 2014, Versalis signed a partnership with Solazyme, an

  US-based renewable oil and bio-products company, aimed to expand market access and commercial use of Encapso™ – the world’s first commercially – available, biodegradable encapsulated lubricants for drilling fluids. Encapso will also be used in oil and gas fields operated by Eni.
è Following the strategic partnership signed in 2013 with Yulex, an US-
  based leader in bio-materials, to produce guayule-based bio-rubber by using non-food feedstock, is under development the agronomic protocol and the innovative technology engineering, through the development of the entire supply chain, from the cultivation to the extraction of natural rubber, until the construction of a bio-mass power station.

 

| Strategies

Versalis’ operations are exposed to volatile costs of oil-based feedstock and the cyclicality of demand due to the commoditized nature of product portfolio and underlying weaknesses in the industry. Our commodity chemical businesses have been unprofitable in recent years and we expect only limited improvements in the scenario in the foreseeable future due to structural cost disadvantages with respect to Asian and Middle East players and also US players, as well as a weak macroeconomic outlook which will hamper a sustainable recovery in demand. We believe that the current improvement in the cost of oil-based feedstock will provide only limited upside to the weak underlying fundamentals of the petrochemical sector in Europe.

Against this backdrop, our priority is the economic and financial sustainability in the medium and long term. The breakeven at

  adjusted operating profit and operating cash flow is expected to be achieved from 2016.

This target will be driven by implementing the following strategic guidelines:
n downsizing the installed capacity in commoditized and loss-making businesses through the reconversions of inefficient units and plant shutdown and/or divestment and rationalization of the other businesses;
n refocusing our chemical portfolio on high value-added productions (i.e. specialties) also through the development of green chemistry; and
n upgrading of our production platform by means of the internationalization of the business to serve global clients and markets featured by high demand growth, also through strategic alliances with industrial partners.

è Expenditure in R&D amounted to euro 12 million. 20 patent applications were filed.
è Capital expenditure amounted to euro 694 million (euro 902 million in 2013) which mainly regarded the upgrading of the drilling and construction fleet.

 

| Strategies

We expect a challenging trading environment in the oilfield services sector due to lower crude oil prices. In spite of this, we forecast that the execution of recently-acquired projects will support operating results.

Over the four-year plan, the Engineering & Construction segment intends to improve profitability by growing in those

  market segments where it owns competitive advantages, like ultra-deep projects, pipeline laying, onshore projects in harsh environments and with other complexities. The Engineering & Construction segment will leverage on the enhancement of the EPC(I)-oriented business model, its world-class technology, engineering and delivering skills, its strong local presence and established relationships with other major oil companies and national oil companies. The profitability and cash generation over the plan period will be sustained by selective capital expenditure, efficiency actions and working capital optimization.

Group results for the year / Financial review Eni in 2014

Group results for the year


In 2014, the Group faced strong headwinds in any of its reference markets. Oil&gas realizations in dollar terms declined due to lower a Brent price, down by 9% from 2013, and lower gas benchmarks. Eni’s refining margins (Standard Eni Refining Margin-SERM) that gauge the profitability of Eni’s refineries were up by 32.1% from the particularly depressed level of 2013, due to a fall in the cost of crude oil feedstock. However, the European refining business continued to be affected by structural headwinds from lower demand, overcapacity and increasing competitive pressure from streams of cheaper refined products imported from Russia, Asia and the United States. The European gas market was adversely affected by weak demand, competitive pressures and oversupply. Price competition was tough taking into account minimum off-take obligations provided by gas purchase take-or-pay contracts and reduced sales opportunities. Spot prices in Europe reported a decrease of 22.7% from 2013. Electricity sales reported negative margins due to oversupply and increasing competition from more competitive sources (photovoltaic and coal-fired plants).

| 2014 results

In 2014, net profit attributable to Eni’s shareholders was euro 1,291 million, a decline of euro 3,869 million from 2013, or 75%; operating profit of euro 7,917 million was down by 10.9%.
Business performance was adversely impacted by lower oil prices which decreased revenues in the Exploration & Production segment. The mid-downstream business segments reported cumulatively an improved performance of euro 1.2 billion reflecting gas contract renegotiations, cost efficiencies, as well as optimization and restructuring initiatives, in spite of an unfavorable trading environment. Furthermore, results were

  affected by a euro 221 million loss on the fair-valued interests in Galp and Snam which underlay two convertible bonds.
In addition to these business trends, 2014 net profit was impacted by net charges of euro 2,416 million due to the alignment of crude oil and product inventories to current market prices, asset impairments driven by a lower price environment in the near to medium term impacting the recoverable amounts of oil&gas properties and of rigs and construction vessels in Saipem, as well as the write-off of deferred tax assets of Italian subsidiaries (euro 976 million) due to the projections of lower future taxable profit (euro 500 million) and the write-off for euro 476 million of deferred tax assets accrued in connection with an Italian windfall tax of 6.5 percentage points which adds to the Italian statutory tax rate of 27.5%. This windfall tax, the so-called Robin Tax, was ruled to be illegitimate by an Italian Court on February 11, 2015. It was the first time that a sentence stated the illegitimacy of a tax rule prospectively, denying any reimbursement right. As a result of the abrogation, deferred tax assets of Italian subsidiaries were recalculated with the lower statutory tax rate of 27.5% instead of 33%, with the difference being written off. These effects were partly offset by the recognition of a tax gain of euro 824 million due to the settlement of a tax dispute with the Italian fiscal Authorities regarding how to determine a tax surcharge of 4% due by the parent company Eni SpA (the so-called Libyan tax) since 2009.
In 2013, significant disposal gains were recognized due to the divestment of a 20% stake in the Mozambique discovery (euro 2,994 million) and the fair-value evaluation of Eni’s interest in Artic Russia (euro 1,682 million), partly offset by extraordinary charges and inventory holding losses for euro 4 billion (post-tax). These transactions affected the year-on-year comparison of reported net profit.

In 2014, adjusted net profit attributable to Eni’s shareholders of euro 3,707 million decreased by 16.3% and excludes an inventory holding loss of euro 1,008 million and special charges of euro 1,408 million, net of tax, with a positive adjustment of euro 2,416 million.

Results by business segment

Exploration & Production
The Exploration & Production segment reported a 21.1% decrease in adjusted operating profit to euro 11,551 million. This result reflected reduced oil and gas realizations in dollar terms (down by 8.9% on average) higher depreciation charges taken in connection with the start-up of new fields mainly in the second half of 2013, achieving full ramp-up in the course of 2014. Adjusted net profit of euro 4,423 million decreased by 25.7% due to a reduced operating performance. The adjusted tax rate increased by approximately 2 percentage points in the year due to a larger share of taxable profit reported in countries with higher taxations.

Gas & Power
The Gas & Power segment reported an adjusted operating profit of euro 310 million reversing an adjusted operating loss of euro 638 million in 2013. The 2014 results were driven by better competitiveness due to the renegotiation of a substantial portion of the long-term gas supply portfolio, including one-off effects related to the purchase costs of volumes supplied in previous reporting periods, which was larger than in the full year 2013. The result also reflected a positive contribution of international LNG sales. These positives were partially offset by a continued decline in sale prices of gas and electricity, driven by weak demand and continuing competitive pressure, exacerbated by oversupply and market liquidity, as well as a different tariff regime for supplying gas to the residential regulated market.
Adjusted net profit of 2014 amounted to euro 190 million, up by euro 443 million reported in 2013. This reflected better operating performance, partially offset by lower results from equity-accounted entities.

  Refining & Marketing
The Refining & Marketing segment reported half-sized operating losses at euro 208 million compared to 2013, in spite of continuing industry headwinds on the back of weak demand and overcapacity. The improvement was driven by improved refining margins compared with the particularly depressed scenario of 2013 following a fall in oil prices, and restructuring initiatives, including the start of the green refinery project in Venice, and cost efficiencies, particularly with respect to energy and overhead costs. Marketing results were sustained by a decline of oil prices despite weak demand and rising competitive pressure. The adjusted net loss for the full year was euro 147 million, down by euro 85 million from the previous reporting period.

Versalis
Versalis reported an adjusted operating loss of euro 346 million, a decrease of euro 40 million, or 10.4% from 2013. The loss matured against the backdrop of an unfavorable trading environment which reflected continued weakness in commodity demand and increasing competition from non-EU producers. These trends were partly offset by efficiency initiatives and restructuring programs, mainly relating to the start-up of the Porto Torres Green Chemical project and the shutdown of certain unprofitable production units, as well as lower oil-based feedstock prices in the last part of 2014. Adjusted net loss of euro 277 million decreased by euro 61 million from 2013.

Engineering & Construction
The Engineering & Construction segment reported an adjusted operating profit of euro 479 million, up by euro 578 million from 2013 reflecting extraordinary losses incurred in 2013 driven by changed estimates at long-term contracts. Adjusted net profit increased by euro 562 million to euro 309 million.

In 2014, capital expenditure amounted to euro 12,240 million (euro 12,800 million in 2013) relating mainly to:
- development activities deployed mainly in Norway, Angola, Congo, the United States, Italy, Nigeria, Egypt, Kazakhstan, Indonesia and exploratory activities of which 98% was spent outside Italy, primarily in Libya, Mozambique, the United States, Angola, Nigeria, Indonesia, Cyprus, Norway and Gabon;
- upgrading of the fleet used in the Engineering & Construction segment (euro 694 million);
- refining, supply and logistics in Italy and outside Italy (euro 362 million) with projects designed to improve the conversion rate and flexibility of refineries, as well as the upgrade and rebranding of the refined product retail network in Italy and in the rest of Europe (euro 175 million); and
- initiatives to improve flexibility of the combined cycle power plants (euro 98 million).

Sources and uses of cash
The Company’s cash requirements for capital expenditures, buy-back program, dividends to shareholders, and working capital were financed by a combination of funds generated from

  operations, borrowings and divestments.
In 2014, net cash provided by operating activities amounted to euro 15,110 million, as it was supported by a reduction of working capital in E&P, G&P mainly due to a reduction in cash advances related to the take-or-pay clause in gas long-term supply contracts, as well as in Saipem. Proceeds from disposals were euro 3,684 million and mainly related to the divestment of Eni’s share in Artic Russia (euro 2,160 million), an 8% interest in Galp Energia (euro 824 million), Eni’s interest in the EnBW joint venture in Germany, as well as the divestment of Eni’s stake in the South Stream project. These cash inflows funded cash outlays relating to capital expenditure totaling euro 12,240 million and dividend payments, share repurchases and other changes amounting to euro 4,434 million (including euro 2,020 million related to the 2014 interim dividend paid to Eni’s shareholders and euro 380 million of share repurchases), reducing the Group’s net debt from December 31, 2013 by euro 1,278 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was negatively affected by lower receivables due beyond the end of the reporting period, being transferred to financing institutions compared to the amount transferred at the end of the previous reporting period (down by euro 961 million from December 31, 2013).

Non-GAAP measures
Reconciliation of reported operating profit and reported
net profit to results on an adjusted basis

Management evaluates Group and business performance on the basis of adjusted operating profit and adjusted net profit, which are arrived at by excluding inventory holding gains or losses, special items and, in determining the business segments’ adjusted results, finance charges on finance debt and interest income. The adjusted operating profit of each business segment reports gains and losses on derivative financial instruments entered into to manage exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates which impact industrial margins and translation of commercial payables and receivables. Accordingly also currency translation effects recorded through profit and loss are reported within business segments’ adjusted operating profit.

The taxation effect of the items excluded from adjusted operating or net profit is determined based on the specific rate of taxes applicable to each of them. The Italian statutory tax rate is applied to finance charges and income. Adjusted operating profit and adjusted net profit are non-GAAP financial measures under either IFRS, or US GAAP. Management includes them in order to facilitate a comparison of base business performance across periods, and to allow financial analysts to evaluate Eni’s trading performance on the basis of their forecasting models. The following is a description of items that are excluded from the calculation of adjusted results.

Inventory holding gain or loss is the difference between the cost of sales of the volumes sold in the period based on the cost of supplies of the same period and the cost of sales of the volumes

  sold calculated using the weighted average cost method of inventory accounting.

Special items include certain significant income or charges pertaining to either: (i) infrequent or unusual events and transactions, being identified as non-recurring items under such circumstances; (ii) certain events or transactions which are not considered to be representative of the ordinary course of business, as in the case of environmental provisions, restructuring charges, asset impairments or write ups and gains or losses on divestments even though they occurred in past periods or are likely to occur in future ones; or (iii) exchange rate differences and derivatives relating to industrial activities and commercial payables and receivables, particularly exchange rate derivatives to manage commodity pricing formulas which are quoted in a currency other than the functional currency. Those items are reclassified in operating profit with a corresponding adjustment to net finance charges, notwithstanding the handling of foreign currency exchange risks is made centrally by netting off naturally-occurring opposite positions and then dealing with any residual risk exposure in the exchange rate market.
As provided for in Decision No. 15519 of July 27, 2006 of the Italian market regulator (CONSOB), non-recurring material income or charges are to be clearly reported in the management’s discussion and financial tables. Also, special items allow to allocate to future reporting periods gains and losses on re-measurement at fair value of certain non hedging commodity derivatives and exchange rate

derivatives relating to commercial exposures, lacking the criteria to be designed as hedges, including the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges and certain derivative financial instruments embedded in the pricing formula of long-term gas supply agreements of the Exploration & Production segment.

Finance charges or income related to net borrowings excluded from the adjusted net profit of business segments are comprised of interest charges on finance debt and interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents not related to operations. Therefore, the adjusted net profit of business segments includes finance charges or income deriving from

  certain segment-operated assets, i.e., interest income on certain receivable financing and securities related to operations and finance charge pertaining to the accretion of certain provisions recorded on a discounted basis (as in the case of the asset retirement obligations in the Exploration & Production segment). Finance charges or interest income and related taxation effects excluded from the adjusted net profit of the business segments are allocated on the aggregate Corporate and financial companies.

For a reconciliation of adjusted operating profit, adjusted net profit to reported operating profit and reported net profit see tables below.

| Summarized Group balance sheet

The summarized Group balance sheet aggregates the amount of assets and liabilities derived from the statutory balance sheet in accordance with functional criteria which consider the enterprise conventionally divided into the three fundamental areas focusing on resource investments, operations and financing. Management believes that this summarized Group balance sheet is useful   information in assisting investors to assess Eni’s capital structure and to analyze its sources of funds and investments in fixed assets and working capital. Management uses the summarized Group balance sheet to calculate key ratios such as the proportion of net borrowings to shareholders’ equity (leverage) intended to evaluate whether Eni’s financing structure is sound and well-balanced.

The summarized Group balance sheet was affected by a sharp movement in the EUR/USD exchange rate which determined an increase in net capital employed, net borrowings and total equity of euro 5,145 million, euro 137 million and euro 5,008 million respectively following translation of the financial statements of US-denominated subsidiaries reflecting a 12% appreciation of the US dollar (1 EUR = 1.214 USD at December 31, 2014 compared to 1.379 at December 31, 2013).

Fixed assets amounted to euro 82,208 million, representing an increase of euro 5,732 million from December 31, 2013. The increase was attributable to favorable currency movements, capital expenditure (euro 12,240 million), upward revisions of the previous decommissioning provisions in the Exploration & Production segment mainly combine with a benign interest rate environment allowing an increase of euro 2,112 million. These increases were partly offset by the depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment charges (euro 11,499 million), the reduction in the line item "Equity-accounted investments and other investments" (down by euro 1,051 million) due to the divestment of Eni’s interest in Galp and the fair value evaluation of the residual interest, the sale of other

  interests (South Stream and EnBw), as well as the decrease in the compulsory inventories reflecting lower commodity prices (euro 992 million).

Net working capital (negative euro 5,292 million) reported a decrease of euro 3,951 million. This reflected lower "Other current assets and liabilities" (down by euro 1,052 million) following the reduction of net receivables vs. joint venture partners in the Exploration & Production segment, and decreased deferred costs related to pre-paid gas volumes provided by take-or-pay obligations due to volume makeup in the year as a result of contract renegotiations. Also lower inventories of crude oil and products (down by euro 384 million) were recorded due to the alignment to current prices. The balance of trade receivables and trade payables declined by euro 934 million mainly in the Exploration & Production segment. Finally, lower tax payables and provisions for deferred taxes were recorded due to the recognition of the above mentioned tax gain on Libyan tax by the parent company Eni SpA, net of the amount already collected in the fourth quarter, and as taxes paid were larger than those accrued in the full year due to a lowered taxable profit. These were partly offset by the write-off of deferred tax assets of Italian subsidiaries for euro 976 million.

Shareholders’ equity including non-controlling interest was euro 62,209 million, representing an increase of euro 1,160 million from December 31, 2013. This was due to comprehensive income for the year (euro 5,598 million) as a result of net profit (euro 850 million), positive foreign currency effects (euro 5,008 million), net of negative changes in the cash flow hedge reserve (euro 167 million), and of the reversal of the fair-value reserve recorded in equity on Galp interest due to the divestment. This addition to equity was partly offset by dividend payments to Eni’s shareholders and other changes of euro 4,438 million (dividend to Eni’s shareholders of euro 4,006 million, of which euro 2,020 million related to the interim dividend for fiscal year 2014, share repurchases amounting to euro 380 million and dividends paid to non-controlling interest).

Net borrowings and leverage
Eni evaluates its financial condition by reference to net borrowings, which is calculated as total finance debt less: cash, cash equivalents and certain very liquid investments not

  related to operations, including among others non-operating financing receivables and securities not related to operations. Non-operating financing receivables consist of amounts due to Eni’s financing subsidiaries from banks and other financing institutions and amounts due to other subsidiaries from banks for investing purposes and deposits in escrow. Securities not related to operations consist primarily of government and corporate securities.

Leverage is a measure used by management to assess the Company’s level of indebtedness. It is calculated as a ratio of net borrowings which is calculated by excluding cash and cash equivalents and certain very liquid assets from financial debt to shareholders’ equity, including non-controlling interest. Management periodically reviews leverage in order to assess the soundness and efficiency of the Group balance sheet in terms of optimal mix between net borrowings and net equity, and to carry out benchmark analysis with industry standards.

| Summarized Group cash flow statement and Change in net borrowings

Eni’s summarized Group cash flow statement derives from the statutory statement of cash flows. It enables investors to understand the link existing between changes in cash and cash equivalents (deriving from the statutory cash flows statement) and in net borrowings (deriving from the summarized cash flow statement) that occurred from the beginning of the period to the end of period. The measure enabling such a link is represented by the free cash flow which is the cash in excess of capital expenditure needs. Starting from free cash flow it is possible to determine either: (i) changes in cash and cash equivalents for   the period by adding/deducting cash flows relating to financing debts/receivables (issuance/repayment of debt and receivables related to financing activities), shareholders’ equity (dividends paid, net repurchase of own shares, capital issuance) and the effect of changes in consolidation and of exchange rate differences; and (ii) change in net borrowings for the period by adding/deducting cash flows relating to shareholders’ equity and the effect of changes in consolidation and of exchange rate differences. The free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure of financial performance.

| Dividends
Management intends to propose to the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting scheduled on May 13, 2015, the distribution of a dividend of euro 1.12 per share for fiscal year 2014, of which euro 0.56 was already paid as interim dividend in September 2014.
Total cash outlay for the 2014 dividend is expected at approximately euro 4.01 billion (including euro 1.99 billion already paid in September 2014) if the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting approves the annual dividend. In future years, management
  expects to continue paying interim dividends for each fiscal year, with the balance to the full-year dividend to be paid in each following year. Eni intends to continue paying interim dividends in the future. Holders of ADRs receive their dividends in US dollars. The rate of exchange used to determine the amount in dollars is equal to the official rate recorded on the date of dividend payment in Italy (May 22, 2014). On ADR payment date, Bank of New York Mellon pays the dividend less the amount of any withholding tax under Italian law (currently 27%) to all Depository   Trust Company Participants, representing payment of Eni SpA’s gross dividend. By submitting to Bank of New York Mellon certain required documents with respect to each dividend payment, US holders of ADRs will enable the Italian Depositary bank and Bank of New York Mellon as ADR Depositary to pay the dividend at the reduced withholding tax rate of 15%. US shareholders can obtain relevant documents, as well as a complete instruction packet to benefit from this tax relief by contacting Bank of New York Mellon at 201-680-6825.
