Eni to buy Heritage’s 50% interest in blocks 1 and 3A in Uganda

 

San Donato Milanese (Milan), November 23, 2009 - Eni and Heritage have reached an agreement with respect to the assignment of the 50% interest which Heritage holds in blocks 1 and 3A in Uganda for a total amount of 1.35 billion US dollars. An additional consideration of US$150 million, in cash or assets, is also foreseen provided certain conditions are met in the future. The agreement also envisages the transfer of the operatorship in the two blocks to Eni.

Blocks 1 and 3A, which are located in the Lake Albert basin, one of the most important African sedimentary basins, have resources for more than 1 billion barrels of oil equivalent, of which approximately 700 million have already been discovered from about 28 wells drilled in the area.

The development of these resources will require great synergy with Uganda's infrastructure programs, in respect of which Eni intends to play a leading role in partnership with the Authorities.

The transaction is part of Eni’s growth strategy in the African continent and in the Sub-Saharan region in particular, where the company is committed to pursuing an approach of sustainable development through its staff, expertise and technologies.

Eni considers Uganda, which has achieved economic growth through effective policies, an ideal partner for the development of cooperation programs aimed at sustaining the region’s social, economic, and industrial development.

Eni’s production in the region amounts to about 450,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day.

Eni awarded coal bed methane license in Indonesia

 

San Donato Milanese (Milan), November 30, 2009 - Eni, through its joint venture affiliate VICO CBM Limited, has today been awarded a 37.8% stake in Sanga Sanga, a new coal-bed methane (CBM) production sharing contract (PSC), in Indonesia. Eni’s partners are the british company BP (37.8%), Opicoil (20%), a Houston based subsidiary of Taiwan's CPC, and Universe Gas and Oil (4.4%), a Japanese consortium including Japex and the Osaka Gas Group.

Sanga Sanga, located in the gas rich Kutei Basin of East Kalimantan, is Eni’s first major coal-bed methane project and it will be operated by the joint venture VICO (Eni 50%, BP 50%). Preliminary study in the block shows resources potential of about 4 trillion cubic feet (111 billion cubic meters) of gas to be better defined through an appraisal program that will commence in 2010.

The Sanga Sanga CBM PSC, which will be connected to the Bontang LNG, has the potential to become the first "CBM to LNG" integrated project, enabling rapid gas commercialization.

This success confirms Eni as one of the major oil companies exploring in Indonesia and an important player in developing the CBM business. Indonesia has estimated CBM resources of 453 trillion cubic feet of gas in place, which are amongst the largest in the world, after the United States and China.
