Biodiversity plays a fundamental role in the well-being of people and the planet. Maintaining healthy ecosystems rich in biodiversity reduces environmental risks and facilitates the growth of productive activities and the development of cultural, recreational and tourism services. In a biodiversity-rich environment, processes such as carbon absorption, water quality regulation, erosion control, pollination and the production of renewable raw materials (such as wood and biomass for energy, food and fibre) are favoured. Eni's approach reconciles its operations with the protection of biodiversity by ensuring that the interrelationships between environmental aspects (such as climate change, water availability and quality) and social issues (such as the sustainable development of local communities), are identified and effectively managed in local areas and throughout the life cycle of our projects.

The biodiversity special
Our policy, impact management model, field projects and partnerships for biodiversity conservation.
Our approach to protecting biodiversity
Our Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (BES) management model is risk-based and applied to existing and new projects throughout the life cycle. We also carry out environmental impact assessment studies in all the countries where we operate.
We assess the risk exposure of our portfolio
We carry out screening activities to identify and prioritise sites with a potential risk of impact on the BES, where we perform in-depth analyses.
We implement action plans (BAPs) and monitoring
We design and implement BAPs at sites with significant risk exposure that are in close proximity to areas important for biodiversity or with threatened species.
We apply the mitigation hierarchy
We give priority to preventive actions over corrective ones, with the aim of avoiding the net loss of biodiversity and, where possible, improving its conditions.
We work with international organisations
We ensure the application of approaches that have scientific technical support and are aligned with international standards through collaboration with experts and international organisations.

Protecting UNESCO sites
We do not carry out hydrocarbon exploration and development activities within the boundaries of natural sites included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. We are committed to the conservation of biodiversity through the adoption of our management model, in line with our Policy on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services. When we work in joint ventures we do not operate, we are committed to promote with our partners the development and adoption of good management practices in line with our BES Policy.
