Eni SpA (ENI.MI) swung to a loss in the second quarter as the
low price of crude oil resulted in a steep drop in revenue, while
the forced shutdown of a domestic oil field in southern Italy led
to a drop in production.
Eni Friday reported a net loss of 446 million euros ($494
million) in the second quarter from continuing operations compared
with a profit of EUR498 million in the same period last year.
Revenue plunged by a third to EUR13.42 billion.
Hydrocarbon production fell 2.2% in the quarter though Eni
confirmed guidance for full-year production to be in line with
2015. As expected, Eni said it will pay an interim dividend of 40
European cents per share.
