In February 2023, Eni Sustainable Mobility and PBF Energy announced an equal partnership in the USA for the St. Bernard bio-refinery currently under construction in Louisiana This strategic partnership, combining the experience and skills of the two companies, reflects both partners; commitment to providing more sustainable fuels using low-carbon raw materials. In particular, Eni Sustainable Mobility provides its global expertise in sourcing sustainable raw materials for HVO, together with access to international markets. The St. Bernard biorefinery startup is scheduled in the first half of 2023 and the facility is currently targeted to have processing capacity of about 1.1 million tonnes/year of raw materials, with full pretreatment capabilities. It will produce mainly HVO Diesel (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil, commonly known as ‘renewable diesel’ in North America), with a production capacity of 306 million gallons per year. The biorefinery will use the Ecofining™ process developed by Eni in cooperation with Honeywell UOP.

We create energy
In the Americas we are mainly active in hydrocarbon exploration and production and in the Refining & Marketing and chemicals sector. In 2008 we made an alliance with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston, which has more than 100 researchers, professors and postgraduates and done more than 40 projects. Together, and in line with our new mission, we are going down the path to a low-carbon energy model, reliant on cutting-edge skills and technologies that will change our world and way of producing and consuming energy.
Collaboration with MIT and nine other universities
The collaboration will work on a varied portfolio of projects, with a focus on solar energy, capturing and reusing carbon, energy storage, environmental characterisation, exploiting gas, advanced modelling of fields, oil systems and technologies for safety at work. In addition to partnerships with MIT, we have ongoing or activated collaboration with other American universities.
