Eni’s subsidiary Eni Sustainable Mobility as well as overseas solutions business Saipem have actually participated in a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to use biofuels on Saipem’s exploration as well as overseas building vessels, concentrating on procedures in the Mediterranean Sea.
Saipem, based in Italy, has a worldwide fleet of 45 vessels for building as well as exploration.
“The MoU represents an important milestone for Eni and Saipem, confirming the mutual commitment to diversifying energy sources and to reducing the carbon footprint across offshore operations,” Saipem claimed in a declaration.
“Eni has been producing biofuels since 2014, thanks to the conversion of the Venice and Gela refineries into biorefineries, which have been palm oil free since the end of 2022. Through the proprietary Ecofining technology, vegetable raw materials or animal waste and HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) biofuel products are processed,” the business claimed in a declaration.
According to Saipem, the manage Eni Sustainable Mobility belongs to Saipem’s approach to reduce GHG exhausts.
Saipem claimed it intended to boost using alternate gas on its vessels “so as to immediately reduce its own emissions and those of its clients.”
Thanks to biofuel, Saipem will possibly have the ability to lower exhausts by around 550,000 lots of carbon dioxide equal annually, equivalent to 60% of its overall yearly Scope 1 exhausts.
