Eni for 2016 | Path to decarbonization
• As part of the Zero Flaring strategy, Eni is researching and
experimenting a proprietary technology for gas re-injection in
low pressure mineralized levels using the water produced as
transport fluid. Pilot testing will begin in Nigeria shortly.
• At its New Oils Centre in Gela, Eni has piloted an
oxy-combustion technology which allows the exploitation
of low-calorific tail gases with direct production of electricity
and practically zero CO, NO and hydrocarbon emissions.

| Reduction of fugitive methane emissions
Eni is committed to reducing period compared with 2014, Methane Partnership, guided by
methane emissions associated thanks to the start of specific UNEP, Eni presented a methane
with its industrial operations. campaigns to identify fugitive emissions control program
Most of these refer to uncontrolled methane emissions from plants which involves establishing
emissions from upstream and related maintenance and monitoring campaigns over the
businesses and it is here that leakage elimination (so-called next 10 years to cover the most
efforts have been concentrated. Leak Detection and Repair important upstream sites, with
Eni upstream has achieved campaigns - LDAR). Furthermore, aim of reducing fugitive methane
