Abu Dhabi (UAE), 12 September 2022 – His Excellency Dr. Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology and Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) Managing Director and Group CEO, and Claudio Descalzi, Eni's Chief Executive Officer, met in Abu Dhabi today to discuss the progress of the company’s activities in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, future projects and areas of common interest and collaboration, with the aim to accelerate the existing development project and the time-to-market of new exploration discoveries and international activities, in line with the common decarbonization strategy and with the purpose to contribute to increasing worldwide gas supply.
Dr. Al Jaber and Mr. Descalzi discussed the acceleration of the multi-billion-dollar Ghasha project. The project is estimated to hold significant recoverable gas and is expected to produce more than 1.5 billion cubic feet of gas per day (bcfd) in addition to more than 120,000 barrels of high-value oil and condensates per day.
Mr. Descalzi also illustrated fast-track development options for the recent significant gas discovery in its first exploration well drilled in Offshore Block 2 Abu Dhabi, leveraging the other projects currently under execution as well as utilizing existing ADNOC facilities with the aim to optimize costs and accelerate common production targets. Eni has a 70% stake and is Operator of Block 2, with partner PTTEP that holds the remaining 30%.
Furthermore, Dr. Al Jaber and Mr. Descalzi analyzed several initiatives aimed at strengthening the partnership in the frame of energy transition by deploying renewable energy projects and other initiatives to reduce carbon intensity, with focus on the development of a carbon capture usage and storage (CCUS) project, to offset carbon emissions and deliver significant environmental, social and economic benefit to involved stakeholders.
