Eni SpA (ENI.MI) said Tuesday that it has signed a series of
agreements with the Algerian state hydrocarbon company Sonatrach to
extend their partnership.
The oil-and-gas company said that the goal of the agreements is
to strengthen the integration between the companies in their joint
activities in Algeria. The goal will be achieved through synergies,
which will in turn lead to significant cost savings and improved
operational efficiency, Eni said.
"The launch of an ambitious exploration and development program
in the Berkine basin will be particularly important. It will lead
to the production of new gas reserves through the use and
optimization of existing infrastructures," it said.
Eni and Sonatrach have also agreed to continue collaborating in
their research and development efforts, Eni said.
