In 2008, the LNG terminal in Panigaglia (La Spezia) regasified 1.52 bcm of natural gas (2.38 bcm in 2007).

Eni, through Snam Rete Gas, operates the only regasification terminal operating in Italy at Panigaglia (Liguria). At full capacity, this terminal can regasify 17,500 cubic meters of LNG per day and input 3.5 bcm/y into the Italian transport network. Eni plans to increase the capacity of the Panigaglia plant from the current 3.5 bcm to 8 bcm. From 2014 the upgrade of this structure will allow to increase imports to Italy by 4.5 bcm/y. Works are expected to start up by 2010, if all authorizations are granted.
