liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals will create emission reduction opportunities
around the globe. A key learning of the recent past is that technology can change the
energy landscape in dramatic and beneficial ways. The current trend toward new
technology allowing customers to use oil and gas in lower emitting ways will
continue in the future as innovations improve the ways we convert energy sources
into useful work.”112

Statements on Climate Change
“Climate change is a pillar of our industrial strategies and is also factored in the
evaluation of our projects which have to be sustainable also in a low carbon scenario.
Progress achieved so far in the evolution of our business model is based on a clear
decarbonization strategy focused on a constant commitment to achieving increasing
operational efficiency and finding innovative and technological solutions to foster
energy transition and reduce emissions, thus also leveraging projects of circular
economy and carbon offset. In 2018, we achieved significant results on E&P GHG
emission intensity index reporting 21.44 tCO2 eq/kboe, a 20% reduction compared
to the baseline 2014 and in line with the target at 2025 declared to the market, a 43%
reduction. Also[,] the downstream business turnaround is a founding part of this
long-term growth strategy. It is based on the ‘green’ conversion of the least
competitive sites, extending their life in low carbon optics, through the use of
renewable feedstock and raw materials such as food waste, urban waste and
secondary, alternative commodities to the traditional feedstocks and in line with the
principles of the circular economy.”114
“Eni defined a clear strategy to decarbonization integrated in the business model
based on short, medium and long-term actions. Research and development will play
a key role in our decarbonization strategy and in finding the innovative solutions to
promote energy transition.
In the short term, Eni’s strategy is based on the following levers:
• increase of efficiency and reduction of direct GHG emissions: by 2025 we
target to reduce the upstream emission intensity of Eni’s operated assets by
43% compared to 2014 through projects aiming at zero gas flaring, reduction
