In Libya “the issue of security has always remained a very high level of attention. Attention is maximum and will remain maximum. All our workers are Libyans, this does not imply less attention or safety. we continue to be careful”. The CEO of Eni, Claudio Descalzi, on the sidelines of the workshop Eni and Ambrosetti answered questions on Libya and on security in the country in the light of kidnapping of two Italians occurred yesterday.
"Let's hope that this story, always very alarming, will be successful, I can't say much because I don't know much because they are not Eni employees". For Descalzi “Libya needs to be helped with an optimistic, not reckless vision, e no need to tell everyone 'if it goes wrong we'll leave'“. The criticality "from a logistical point of view is not affecting us" added Descalzi, specifying that "current production is over 300 barrels a day".
