Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Highlights
Results > In the first half of 2015, excluding Saipem losses, Eni reported adjusted consolidated operating profit of euro 2.91 billion (down 51%) and adjusted net profit of euro 1.05 billion (down 47%). G&P, R&M and Chemicals were profitable in the first half of 2015 reporting period.
Saipem operating results were a negative euro 0.58 billion driven by impairments at the book value of the net working capital, mainly relating to pending revenues and trade receivables, which were adversely impacted by a deteriorating competitive environment in the oil services sector against the backdrop of weak oil prices.
Group consolidated adjusted operating profit for the first half of 2015 was euro 2.33 billion (down 63%) driven by the negative impact of the scenario for euro 3.8 billion, partly offset by production growth and efficiency gains for euro 0.8 billion. Adjusted net profit was euro 0.79 billion (down 62%).
Net profit pertaining to Enis shareholders was euro 0.59 billion (euro 1.96 billion in the first half of 2014).
-
Cash flow from operations 1 was robust at euro 5.68 billion, in spite of lower oil prices. This cash flow and divestment proceeds of euro 0.64 billion, mainly relating to the disposal of non-strategic assets in the E&P segment, funded large part of capital expenditure incurred in the period (euro 6.24 billion) and 2014 balance dividend payment (euro 2.02 billion) determining an increase in net borrowings of euro 2.79 billion to euro 16.48 billion, as of June 30, 2015, also impacted by currency rates.
-
Leverage increased from 0.22 at December 31, 2014, to 0.26 at June 30, 2015, within the 0.30 threshold.
Interim dividend > In light of the financial results achieved in the first half of 2015 and managements expectations for full-year results, the interim dividend proposal to the Board of Directors on September 17, 2015 will amount to euro 0.40 per share (euro 0.56 per share in 2014). The interim dividend is payable on September 23, 2015, with September 21, 2015 being the ex-dividend date.
Liquids and gas production > In the first half of 2015 Eni reported liquids and gas production of 1.726 million boe/d, up 9%, record organic growth from 2000 2 . When excluding positive price effects in the Companys Production Sharing Agreements, production grew by 5.2%. Expected a robust full-year production to over 7%.
Start-ups > In the first half of 2015 the following major projects start-ups were achieved: (i) Cinguvu field in the operated West Hub Development project located in the Block 15/06 (Enis interest 35%) in Angola; (ii) Kizomba satellites phase 2 located in the Block 15 (Enis interest 20%), offshore Angola; (iii) Nené field located in the Marine XII block (Eni operator with a 65% interest) in Congo; (iv) Hadrian South (Enis interest 30%) and Lucius (Enis interest 8.5%) fields in the Gulf of Mexico; (v) West Franklin phase 2 (Enis interest 21.87%) in the United Kingdom; and (vi) Eldfisk 2 phase 1 (Enis interest 12.39%) in Norway. The start-ups of new fields and continuing production ramp-ups contributed with 105 kboe/d of new production in the first half of 2015.
Venezuela > At the beginning of July, the giant Perla gas field achieved the first gas offshore Venezuela. Perla is seen as one of the most important start-ups in Enis portfolio for 2015. Perla is estimated to contain up to 17 Tcf of gas in place and development was achieved in just 5 years, marking industry-leading time-to-market.
(1) Net cash provided by operating activities. (2) With the exception of the second half of 2012, when production was supported by the recovery of the Libyan production.

Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Highlights
Exploration activity > Exploration successes mainly achieved in Egypt, Libya, Indonesia, the United States and Congo added 300 million boe of new resources to the Companys resource base, at an average cost of 1.7 $/boe. In addition, Eni acquired new exploration acreage with high mineral potential in strategic basins of presence (Egypt, Myanmar, the United Kingdom and Ivory Coast) for a total acreage of 21,000 square kilometers (net to Eni), targeting to rejuvenate Enis mineral right portfolio.
Egypt > Eni signed an agreement with the Egyptian Authorities, which comprises a plan to invest up to $5 billion in the development of the Countrys oil and gas reserves over the next few years. The agreement also includes a revision of certain Enis ongoing oil contracts. The economic effect of these revisions, effective from January 1, 2015, were accounted in the 2015 first half financial statements. The agreement also included the identification of new measures to reduce overdue amounts of trade receivables relating to hydrocarbons supplies to Egyptian state-owned companies.
Indonesia > Signed two purchase and sale agreements with PT Pertamina targeting the LNG volumes expected by 2017 from the Jangkrik gas field (Eni operator with a 55% interest), which is one of the first deep-water gas projects in Indonesia being developed under a fast track scheme.
Agreement with KazMunayGas > Finalized an agreement with KazMunayGas to acquire 50% of the mineral rights for the development and production activity in the Isatay block, with an estimated significant potential oil resources, in the Caspian Sea.
Versalis > Within the strategy of international growth and diversification of basic chemicals, agreements were signed with Reliance Industries Ltd, an Indian based corporation, to market the styrene butadiene rubber and with Ecombine and EVE Rubber Institute to develop a joint technology platform in order to offer to market an advanced elastomer compounds with enhanced mechanical performances and environment-friendly features.
Climate change > On June 1, 2015, Eni and other European major oil&gas companies required to the relevant authorities to introduce carbon pricing systems and create clear, stable, ambitious policy frameworks that could eventually connect national systems. These would reduce uncertainty and encourage the most cost effective ways of reducing carbon emissions widely. With this unprecedented joint initiative, the companies recognize both the importance of the climate challenge and the importance of energy to human life and well-being.
Safety > In the first half of 2015 the injury frequency rate reported a positive trend reducing by 22.6% for employees and by 29.1% for contractors. Eni continued to promote safety in operations with the start-up of Safety Road Show, a program to raise awareness of HSE issues, safety and environment culture in its Italy and outside Italy operating entities (Australia, Angola, Porto Torres, Taranto, Livorno and Venice). In addition, in January 2015, Eni launched the Safety Competence Centre in Gela to develop competence in the safety field also with the start-up of insourcing project.

Mineral right portfolio and exploration activities In the first half of 2015, Eni performed its operations in 41 countries located in five continents. As of June 30, 2015, Enis mineral right portfolio consisted of 913 exclusive or shared rights for exploration and development activities for a total acreage of 344,741 square kilometers net to Eni (334,739 square kilometers net to Eni as of December 31, 2014). In the first half of 2015, changes in total net acreage mainly derived from: (i) new leases mainly in Egypt, Myanmar, the United Kingdom and Ivory Coast for a total acreage of approximately 21,000 square kilometers; (ii) interest increase in Vietnam for a total acreage of 1,500 square kilometers; (iii) the total relinquishment of licenses mainly in Congo, Ghana, Italy, Nigeria, Norway, Tunisia and the United States covering an acreage of approximately 5,500 square kilometers; and (iv) partial relinquishment or interest reduction mainly in Indonesia and Pakistan for approximately 3,000 square kilometers. In the first half of 2015, a total of 14 new exploratory wells were drilled (9.2 of which represented Enis share), as compared to 22 exploratory wells drilled in the first half of 2014 (11.3 of which represented Enis share).
Oil and gas production In the first half of 2015, Enis hydrocarbon production was 1.726 million boe/d, increased by 9% from the first half of 2014. When excluding price effects in the Companys Production Sharing Agreements (PSAs), production increased by 5.2% due to new field start-ups and continuing production ramp-ups at fields started in 2014 mainly in Angola, Congo, the United States, Egypt and the United Kingdom, as well as higher production in Libya. These positive effects were partly offset by mature fields declines. The share of oil and natural gas produced outside Italy was 90% (89% in the first half of 2014).

Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Operating Review
Liquids production (882 kbbl/d) increased by 65 kbbl/d, or 8%, with higher increases mainly in Angola, Congo, Egypt, Libya and the United States.
Natural gas production (4,636 mmcf/d) increased by 428 mmcf/d, or 10.1%, from the first half of 2014. The contribution of new fields start-ups and ramp-ups mainly in the United Kingdom and the United States, as well as higher production in Libya were partly offset by mature fields decline.
Oil and gas production sold amounted to 298.1 mmboe. The 14.3 mmboe difference over production (312.4 mmboe), mainly reflected volumes of natural gas consumed in operations (13 mmboe).

Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Operating Review
Main exploration and development projects
Italy
In the Val dAgri concession (Enis interest 60.77%), the development plan is progressing in line with the commitments agreed with the Basilicata Region in 1998: (i) the construction of a new gas treatment unit is designed to improve the environmental performance of the treatment center; (ii) the Environmental Monitoring Plan is being implemented. This project represents a benchmark in terms of environmental protection. In addition, Eni implements best practices in environmental protection by means of the Action Plan for Biodiversity in Val dAgri; and (iii) initiatives to support cultural and social development, tourism, as well as development of agricultural and food farming businesses. Other main development activities concerned: (i) maintenance activities and production optimization at the Barbara, Anemone, Annalisa, Armida and Gela fields; and (ii) the ongoing development programs of the Bonaccia and Clara fields, located in the Adriatic Sea.

Norway In the first half of 2015, Eni was awarded two exploration licenses: (i) the operatorship and a 40% interest in the PL 806 license in the Barents Sea; and (ii) the PL 044C license in the North Sea with a 13.12% interest. Production start-ups were achieved at the Eldfisk 2 Phase 1 field (Enis interest 12.39%) in the North Sea and at Heidrun FSU field (Enis interest 5.2%) in the Norwegian Sea. In the Barents Sea, the FPSO platform was linked at the Goliat field (Eni operator with a 65% interest). Start-up is expected by the end of the third quarter 2015 with a production plateau of approximately 65 kbbl/d net to Eni in 2016. The Goliat project is equipped with a well-advance emergency system for the management of oil spills, in terms of organization, equipment and technology advancement. In April 2015, Eni conducted an oil spill exercise in the Barents Sea, which confirmed that oil spill contingency response plan was in line with all the requirements of Norwegian Authorities. This performance was achieved also by means of the Costal Oil Spill Preparedness Improvement Program (COSPIP), launched by Eni jointly with the Norwegian Clean Seas Association for Operating Companies (NOFO), the Norwegian Fisherman Association, as well as other major oil companies and local and international research institutes. Other development activities concerned the maintenance and optimization of the production at the Ekofisk field (Enis interest 12.39%) by means of the drilling of infilling wells, upgrading of existing facilities and optimization of water injection.
United Kingdom In the first half of 2015, Eni was awarded four exploration licenses in the Central North Sea, with interests ranging from 9% to 100%. In addition, Eni finalized the acquisition of three licenses in the Southern North Sea, with a 100% interest. Eni started production of the Phase 2 at the West Franklin field (Enis interest 21.87%), following the completion and installation of production platform and pipeline linkage. Development activities concerned: (i) drilling activities for the completion of the development of Jasmine field (Enis interest 33%); and (ii) activities of production optimization in Hewett Area (Enis interest 89.3%), aimed to mitigate the natural field production decline and drilling activities in the Liverpool Bay area (Enis interest 100%) aimed at the maximization of the production capacity.

Sales of natural gas in the first half of 2015 amounted to 48.01 bcm, reporting a increase of 2.16 bcm, or 4.7% from the first half of 2014, on the back of challenging trading environment and slight demand increase. Sales included Enis own consumption, Enis share of sales made by equity-accounted entities and Exploration & Production sales in Europe and in the Gulf of Mexico. Sales in Italy increased to 21.11 bcm due to higher sales to hub (Italian gas exchange and spot markets) and a positive performance in the residential segment due to more typical weather conditions compared to the corresponding period of the previous year. These positive performances were partially offset by lower volumes in the thermoelectric segment due to weaker market conditions, reflecting higher use of hydroelectric and renewable sources and a contraction in demand, reported mainly in the first months of the year. Sales to importers in Italy increased by 0.41 bcm reflecting a higher availability of Libyan gas. Sales in the European markets amounted to 20.21 bcm, down by 4.4% from the same period of the previous year due to the divestment of GVS joint venture in Germany and lower spot sales in the United Kingdom. These negatives were partially offset by higher spot sales in France and Turkey due to higher sales to Botas.

Retail sales in Italy In the first half of 2015, retail sales in Italy amounted to 2.85 mmtonnes, down by approximately 200 ktonnes, or by 6.6% from the first half of 2014, due to increasing competitive pressure. Enis retail market share for the first half of 2015 was 24.3%, down by 1.8 percentage points from the corresponding period of 2014 (26.1%). At June 30, 2015, Enis retail network in Italy consisted of 4,486 service stations, 106 less than at December 31, 2014 (4,592 service stations), resulting from the closing of service stations with low throughput (113 units). Average throughput (733 kliters) decreased by 21 kliters from the first half of 2014 (754 kliters) due to increased competitive pressure.

Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Operating Review
Retail sales in the Rest of Europe Retail sales in the rest of Europe of approximately 1.48 mmtonnes were barely unchanged from the corresponding period of 2014. Higher sales in Germany, Switzerland and Austria were entirely offset by lower volumes in Eastern European countries due to the disposal of Enis activities in Romania. At June 30, 2015, Enis retail network in the rest of Europe consisted of 1,594 units, decreasing by 34 units from December 31, 2014, mainly due to the above mentioned disposal in Romania. Average throughput (1,098 kliters) remain substantially stable compared to the first half of 2014.
Wholesale and other sales Wholesale sales in Italy amounted to 3.72 mmtonnes, up by approximately 0.25 mmtonnes, or by 7.2% from the first half of the previous year, in all the business segments with major increases in bunkering, gasoil and minor products due to increasing demand. Supplies of feedstock to the petrochemical industry (0.65 mmtonnes) increased by 44.4% due to higher demand from industrial segment. Wholesale sales in the rest of Europe were 2.06 mmtonnes, down by 5.5% from the first half of 2014 mainly in Eastern European Countries. Other sales in Italy and outside Italy (6.84 mmtonnes) increased by approximately 1.27 mmtonnes, or by 22.8%, mainly due to higher sales volumes to oil companies.

Petrochemical sales of 1,870 ktonnes slightly increased from the first half of 2014 (up 18 ktonnes, or 1%) due to higher spot sales of olefins to third parties (in particular ethylene, up by 110%), as well as recovery of activities at the Porto Marghera site. In the polymers segment, sales volumes of styrene increased by 5.6% due to the recovery of European market and lower inputs from the Far East. These effects were partially offset by lower isomers sales due to the disposal of the Sarroch plant occurred at the end of 2014.
Petrochemical production of 2,757 ktonnes decreased by 44 ktonnes (down by 1.6%). Major production decreases occurred at the Brindisi site (down by 21%) due to the planned multi-annual standstill occurred in the second quarter of 2015, Dunkerque (down by 14.6%) and Ragusa (down by 7.6%), as well as Sarroch for the abovementioned plant disposal. These effects were partially offset by higher production registered at the Ravenna plant (up by 22%), due to the start of Butene 1 production, at Ferrara (up by 8.3%) and Mantova (up by 5.5%). Nominal capacity of plants increased from the first half of 2014, due to the restart of Porto Marghera site, in spite of the rationalization initiatives, developed during the reporting period.
The average utilization rate, calculated on nominal capacity, was 72% (74% in the first half 2014).

The deterioration in the market environment where Saipem operates in the first half of 2015 was driven by weak oil prices, which downward trend commenced late in 2014. This strongly deteriorated environment triggered: - delays in the commissioning of new contracts and the cancellation of sanctioned projects and a stiffening in the negotiation process on part of clients to approve variations and claims occurred during project execution; - an increased counterparty risk in certain geographical areas; - a need to review Saipems operating strategy through the launch of the plan "Fit for the future" in order to rationalize production yards and vessels that are no longer viable in the current market environment; and - a need to review the Companys negotiating strategy with a view to obtaining rapid and effective settlements with clients, keeping potential disputes to a minimum and ensuring immediate financial benefit.
On the back of the continuing worsening of the outlook for the oil services industry, Saipem has launched a turnaround and cost cutting program "Fit for the Future" to maximize its competitive capabilities and create value in this new market scenario. This program involves a rationalization of the Companys asset portfolio to refocus on higher-value areas and businesses. In terms of its geographical footprint, operations in certain Countries, such as Canada and Brazil, will be downsized. The fleet will see the scrapping of a number of vessels, which are not commercially viable in the current market.

Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Financial review and other information
New segmental reporting of Eni Enis segmental reporting is established on the basis of the Groups operating segments that are evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (the CEO) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Effective January 1, 2015, Enis segment information was modified to align Enis reportable segments to certain changes in the organization and in profit accountability defined by Enis top management. The main changes adopted compared to the previous setup of the segment information related to: (i) results of the oil and products trading activities and related risk management activities were transferred to the Gas & Power segment, consistently with the new organizational setup. In previous reporting periods, results of those activities were reported within the Refining & Marketing segment as part of a reporting structure which highlighted results for each stream of commodities. In 2014, this activity reported net sales from operations of approximately euro 50 billion and an operating loss of euro 122 million; (ii) R&M and Versalis operating segments are now combined into a single reportable segment because a single manager is accountable for both the two segments, they show similar long-term economic performance, have comparable products and production processes; and (iii) the previous reporting segments "Corporate and financial companies" and "Other activities" have been combined being residual components of the Group, in order to reduce the number of reportable segments in line with the segmental reporting of the comparable oil&gas players. The segmental financial information reported to the CEO comprises segment revenues, operating profit, as well as segmental assets and liabilities, which are reviewed only on occasion of the statutory reports (the Annual and the Interim Reports). Furthermore, management also assesses the adjusted operating and net profit by business segment. Adjusted results represent non-GAAP measures and are disclosed elsewhere in this Interim Report. As of June 30, 2015, Enis reportable segments have been regrouped as follows: (i) E&P is engaged in exploring for and recovering crude oil and natural gas, including participation to projects for the liquefaction of natural gas; (ii) G&P is engaged in supply and marketing of natural gas at wholesale and retail markets, supply and marketing of LNG and supply, production and marketing of power at retail and wholesale markets. G&P is engaged in supply and marketing of crude oil and oil products targeting the operational requirements of Enis refining business and in commodity trading (including crude oil, natural gas, oil products, power, emission allowances, etc.) targeting to both hedge and stabilize the Group industrial and commercial margins according to an integrated view and to optimize margins; (iii) R&M and Chemicals is engaged in manufacturing, supply and distribution and marketing activities for oil products and chemicals. In previous reporting periods, these two operating segments were reported separately; (iv) Engineering & Construction, Eni through its subsidiary Saipem which is listed on the Italian Stock Exchange (Enis share being 43%) is engaged in the design, procurement and construction of industrial complexes, plants and infrastructures for the oil&gas industries and in supplying drilling and other oilfield services; and (v) Corporate and other activities represents the key support functions, comprising holdings and treasury, headquarters, central functions like IT, HR, real estate, self-insurance activities, as well as the Group environmental clean-up and remediation activities performed by the subsidiary Syndial. The comparative reporting periods of this interim report have been restated consistently with the new segmental reporting adopted by the Group effective January 1, 2015. In the table below adjusted operating profit of segmental reporting are furnished with reference to the full year and the first half of 2014, which were restated in accordance with the new e segmental reporting adopted by Eni. For more details on Enis new segmental reporting see note 34 to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.

Net profit In the first half of 2015, net profit attributable to Enis shareholders amounted to euro 591 million, down by euro 1,370 million, or 69.9% from the first half of 2014. The operating profit of euro 1,945 million decreased by 67% due to sharply lower oil prices (average price of Brent dated crude oil down by approximately 47%) reducing net sales from operations of the Exploration & Production segment and significantly lower results at Saipem which were adversely impacted by write-downs of pending revenues, trade receivables and fixed assets (vessels and logistic hubs) reflecting the deteriorating competitive environment in the oil services sector. These effects were partly offset by higher production levels and appreciation of U.S. dollar vs. euro, as well as an improvement in the performance of the Refining & Marketing and Chemicals due to the combination of efficiency and optimization gains and ongoing margin recovery supporting a return to profitability in the segment. The decreasing net profit was also affected by lower income from investments (down by euro 167 million) and higher financial expenses (down by euro 89 million). The Group tax rate increased by approximately 29 percentage points mainly because the asset write-downs at Saipem were non-deductible tax items.

Adjusted operating profit excluding Saipem (which reported a loss of euro 580 million) of euro 2,909 million, down by 50.9% from the first half of 2014. This was due to a lower performance of the Exploration & Production segment (down by euro 3,943 million, or 61%) driven by sharply lower oil prices, partly offset by production growth, cost efficiencies and the depreciation of the euro against the dollar (down by 19%). The lower E&P result was partially offset by the significant improvement in performance in Refining & Marketing and Chemicals (up by euro 795 million), with the combination of efficiency and optimization gains and ongoing margin recovery supporting a return to profitability in the segment. Group consolidated adjusted operating profit for the first half of 2015 was euro 2,329 million, decreasing by 62.6%, reflecting the write-down of the net working capital at Saipem (pending revenues and trade receivables) driven by a rapidly deteriorating competitiveness in the oil services sector due to weak oil prices.

(a) For a detailed explanation of adjusted operating profit and net profit see paragraph "Reconciliation of reported operating and net profit to results on an adjusted basis".
Adjusted net profit attributable to Enis shareholders excluding Saipem loss, decreased by euro 933 million, or 47.1%, to euro 1,048 million from the first half of 2014, driven by a worsening operating performance, lower income from investments, only partly offset by approximately one percentage point reduction of the Group adjusted tax rate due to lower share of taxable profit reported by the Exploration & Production segment, partly offset by the greater contribution of subsidiaries in Countries with higher rates of taxes. Group consolidated adjusted net profit for the first half of 2015 was euro 787 million, decreasing by 62.1% (down by euro 1,287 million from the first half of 2014) and tax rate was 83% reflecting the non-taxable write-downs of Saipem.
Adjusted net profit is determined by excluding the inventory holding loss (euro 41 million) and special charges of euro 155 million, resulting in a positive adjustment of euro 196 million.
Special items of operating profit amounted to euro 325 million and mainly related to:
| (i) | gains on divestment of
non-strategic oil&gas assets (euro 344 million),
mainly in Nigeria; |
| --- | --- |
| (ii) | impairment of assets (euro
351 million) mainly relating to logistic hubs and vessels
in the Engineering & Construction segment (euro 211
million) due to expected lower utilization rate, an
oil&gas property in the United Kingdom (euro 49
million) and investments made for compliance and
stay-in-business purposes at cash generating units that
were completely written-off in previous reporting periods
in the Refining & Marketing and Chemicals segment
(euro 70 million); |
| (iii) | the effects of the
fair-value evaluation of certain commodity derivatives
lacking the formal criteria to be accounted as hedges
under IFRS (charges of euro 157 million); and |
| (iv) | environmental provisions
(euro 144 million) and provisions for redundancy
incentives (euro 16 million). |
Non-operating special items excluded from the adjusted results mainly comprised the negative fair-value evaluation of certain exchange rate derivatives to hedge Saipem future exposure on acquired contracts for the part yet to be executed (euro 83 million). Special items on income taxes related to tax effects of special gains/charges in operating profit and a reversal of deferred taxation due to changes in the United Kingdom tax law.

Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Financial review and other information
Group results were achieved in a scenario featured by continuing weakness of crude oil prices reflecting lower Brent benchmark price, down 46.8% from the first half of 2014, due to excess of offer. Natural gas prices were negatively affected by the major markets weakness (United States and Europe). Enis standard refining margin that gauges the profitability of Enis refineries considering the typical raw material slate and yields, (SERM) increased fourfold from the particularly depressed level of the first half of 2014. This trend reflected the fall in Brent price and higher fuel value driven by the impact of capacity shutdowns reflecting refineries downtime. However, the structural headwinds of European refining business are still in place due to sluggish demand, overcapacity and increasing competitive pressure from cheaper streams of products imported from Russia, Asia and the United States. In addition, petrochemical products margins (cracker, polyethylene and styrene margins) rebounded sharply due to offer shortages, signals of increasing internal demand and euro depreciation affecting imports. The European gas market continued to be affected by weak demand, competitive pressures and oversupply. Price competition among operators has been stiff taking into account minimum off-take obligations provided by gas purchase take-or-pay contracts and reduced sales opportunities. Saipem results were adversely affected by a continued decline in oil prices, which prompted clients to commission a reduced amount of new projects and adopt a tougher stance when negotiating change orders and claims of ongoing projects. Results of the period also benefited by the depreciation of the euro against the dollar (down 18.5%).

Enis net sales from operations in the first half of 2015 (euro 45,979 million) decreased by euro 10,577 million, or 18.7% from the first half of 2014, driven by weak prices of energy commodities. This negative effect was partly offset by the impact of the depreciation of the euro against the dollar and overall increasing volumes sold/produced (hydrocarbon productions, refining throughputs and gas sales; fuel sales on the retail network and petrochemical production decreased). The decrease in the Engineering & Construction segment was due to write-downs of pending revenues because of updated assumptions to settle negotiations for determining variations and claims of the underlying projects, as well as delays and cancellation of sanctioned projects.

Enis adjusted operating profit , excluding Saipem loss, was euro 2,909 million, decreasing by 50.9%. Group consolidated adjusted operating profit was euro 2,329 million decreasing by 62.6% (down by euro 3,890 million from the first half of 2014). This result was calculated by excluding an inventory holding loss of euro 59 million and special items made up of special net losses of euro 325 million (see page 27), reflecting a lower operating performance recorded by the following segments: - the Engineering & Construction , where Eni operates through its subsidiary Saipem, reported an euro 873 million reduction (from the operating profit of euro 293 million in the first half of 2014 to a loss of euro 580 million in the first half of 2015) driven by the recognition of write-down of the net working capital involving pending revenues and trade receivables; and
- 30 -

Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Financial review and other information
- the Exploration & Production (down by euro 3,943 million, or 61.3%) driven by lower hydrocarbons realizations in dollar terms (down 44% on average) related to the marker Brent trend (down 46.8%) and the weakness of gas market in Europe and the United States. These negatives were offset by the depreciation of the euro vs. the dollar, higher production sold and lower exploration expenses.
These negatives were partially offset by the higher operating profit reported by: - the Refining & Marketing and Chemicals with an adjusted operating profit of euro 226 million significantly increasing by euro 795 million from the same period of 2014. The better performance is mainly attributable to the Refining & Marketing business (up euro 518 million), helped by efficiency and optimization gains and an ongoing recovery in refining margins. In addition, the operating performance of the Chemical segment improved by euro 277 million reflecting turnaround programs and higher product margins in ethylene, polyethylene and styrene; and - the Gas & Power with an adjusted operating profit of euro 325 million, increasing by euro 69 million, driven by better competitiveness of the long-term gas supply portfolio on the back of the renegotiation process, as well as the improved performance reported by the retail gas segment, due to more typical winter weather conditions compared to the first half of 2014. These positives were partially offset by lower one-off effects associated with contract renegotiations relating to the purchase costs of volumes supplied in previous reporting periods.

Net income from investments amounted to euro 454 million and related to: (i) dividends received from entities accounted for at cost (euro 223 million), in particular the Nigeria LNG Ltd (euro 92 million) and Snam SpA (euro 72 million); (ii) Enis share of profit of equity-accounted investments (euro 34 million), mainly in the Exploration & Production; and (iii) net gains on the divestment of asset in Eastern Europe (euro 37 million) and net charges on the disposal of minor assets in the Gas & Power business in Argentina (euro 47 million).
Other income amounted to euro 182 million and mainly related to the fair value evaluation of Galps shares (euro 129 million) and Snams shares (euro 48 million), following the fair value option provided by IAS 39.
The table below sets forth a breakdown of net income/loss from investments for the first half of 2015:

Income taxes in the first half of 2015 were euro 1,760 million, down by euro 2,351 million, compared to the same period of the previous year. The decrease reflected the lower income taxes currently payable, which were incurred by subsidiaries in the Exploration & Production segment operating outside Italy due to a declining taxable profit, as well as a reversal of deferred taxation due to changes in the United Kingdom tax law.

Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Financial review and other information
The reported tax rate increase was due to the non-deductible asset write-downs which were recognized by Saipem, and a higher share of taxable profit reported in Countries with higher taxation, partially offset by a lower share of Group profit before taxes earned by the Exploration & Production segment and the abovementioned reversal of deferred taxation. Adjusted tax rate, calculated as ratio of income taxes to net profit before taxes on adjusted basis, increased to 83% (65.4% in the first half of 2014).

In the first half of 2015, the Exploration & Production segment reported an adjusted operating profit of euro 2,488 million, declining by euro 3,943 million (or 61.3%) from the same period of the previous year. This result was driven by lower oil and gas realizations in dollar terms (down by 47.7% and 32.3%, respectively), reflecting trends in the marker Brent (down by 47%) and lower gas prices in Europe and in the United States. These negatives were partially offset by a favorable exchange rate environment, higher production volumes sold, as well as lower exploration costs.
Adjusted operating profit was calculated by including special items of euro 281 million for the first half of the year relating to: (i) gains on disposals of non-strategic assets (euro 338 million), mainly in Nigeria; (ii) impairments of an oil&gas property (euro 49 million) in the United Kingdom; (iii) a fair value loss of certain derivatives embedded in the pricing formulas of long-term gas supply agreements (euro 31 million); (iv) exchange rate differences and derivatives that have been reclassified to adjusted operating profit and relate to exchange rate exposure on trade payables and receivables (charge of euro 20 million); and (v) provisions for redundancy incentives (euro 10 million).
Adjusted net profit amounted to euro 689 million. This represented a decrease of euro 1,775 million, or 72% from the same period of the previous year, due to lower operating performance and a higher tax rate (up by 10.6 percentage points) which reflected a higher share of taxable profit reported in Countries with higher taxations.
(1) For a detailed explanation of adjusted operating profit and net profit see the paragraph "Reconciliation of reported operating profit and reported net profit to results on an adjusted basis".

(a) Excluding special items.
In the first half of 2015, the Gas & Power segment reported an adjusted operating profit of euro 325 million, up by euro 69 million from the first half of 2014. This increase reflected the improved competitiveness of the wholesale business thanks to the renegotiation of substantial part of long-term gas supply contracts, as well as the improved performance reported by the retail gas segment, due to higher volumes sold in France and more typical winter weather conditions compared to winter months of 2014. These positives were partially offset by lower one-off effects associated with contract renegotiations relating to the purchase costs of volumes supplied in previous reporting periods.
Special items excluded from the adjusted operating profit amounted to euro 33 million and related to: (i) a charge of euro 25 million due to exchange rate differences and exchange rate derivatives, which are entered into to manage exposure to exchange rate risk in commodity pricing formulas and trade receivables or payables denominated in a currency other than the functional currency; (ii) fair-value evaluation of certain commodity derivatives contracts (a charge of euro 14 million); and (iii) impairments of non-strategic assets (euro 17 million) and a charge on pre-paid gas (euro 24 million) in order to align it to its net realizable value at the end of the reporting period.
Adjusted net profit was euro 222 million, increasing by euro 59 million from the first half of 2014, due to better operating performance, partially offset by lower results of equity-accounted entities.

In the first half of 2015, the Refining & Marketing and Chemicals segment reported an adjusted operating profit of euro 226 million, up by euro 795 million from an adjusted net loss of euro 569 million reported in the first half of 2014.
The Refining & Marketing business, recorded an adjusted operating profit of euro 131 million, up by euro 518 million from an adjusted operating loss of euro 387 million reported in the first half of 2014. The improvement was driven by efficiency and optimization initiatives, particularly capacity reductions which lowered the breakeven margin to $5.3 per barrel. These measures will bring about a return to profitability in 2015, should the strong margins continue for the remainder of the year. Marketing activity registered a stable performance due to efficiency initiatives, which helped to absorb almost totally the effects of competitive pressure.
The Chemical business reported an adjusted operating profit of euro 95 million, up by euro 277 million from the operating loss of euro 182 million reported in the first half of 2014. This result was driven by efficiency initiatives carried out in previous years, higher product margins in ethylene, polyethylene and styrene, but was also due to the temporary shortage of certain products, unscheduled facility shutdowns and lower competitiveness of imported products reflecting the euro devaluation. The effects of the ongoing turnaround initiatives, efficiency gains, plants optimization and the restarting of production at the Porto Marghera site, following commercial agreements with Shell, also drove the result.
Special items excluded from the adjusted operating profit of euro 291 million related to the fair-value evaluation of certain commodity derivatives (charges of euro 117 million) lacking the formal criteria to be accounted as hedges under IFRS, environmental charges (euro 80 million), as well as impairment charges to write down capital expenditure of the period which was made at CGUs totally impaired in previous reporting periods (euro 70 million).
Adjusted net profit amounted to euro 175 million, up by euro 618 million from the adjusted operating loss of euro 443 million reported in the first half of 2014, due to improved operating performance.

In the first half of 2015, the Engineering & Construction segment, operated by Eni through the subsidiary Saipem, reported an adjusted operating loss of euro 580 million, decreasing by euro 873 million from the first half of 2014. This was driven by impairments at the book value of the net working capital, mainly relating to pending revenues and trade receivables, which were adversely impacted by a rapidly deteriorating competitive environment in the oil services sector against the backdrop of weak oil prices.
Adjusted net loss of euro 606 million is compared to an adjusted net profit of euro 215 million reported in the first half of 2014.

Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Financial review and other information
NON-GAAP measure Reconciliation of reported operating profit and reported net profit to results on an adjusted basis Management evaluates Group and business performance on the basis of adjusted operating profit and adjusted net profit, which are arrived at by excluding inventory holding gains or losses, special items and, in determining the business segments adjusted results, finance charges on finance debt and interest income. The adjusted operating profit of each business segment reports gains and losses on derivative financial instruments entered into in order to manage exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates which impact industrial margins and the translation of commercial payables and receivables. Accordingly, currency translation effects recorded through profit and loss are also reported within business segments adjusted operating profit. The taxation effect of the items excluded from adjusted operating or net profit is determined based on the specific rate of taxes applicable to each of them. The Italian statutory tax rate is applied to finance charges and income. Adjusted operating profit and adjusted net profit are non-GAAP financial measures under either IFRS or U.S. GAAP. Management includes them in order to facilitate a comparison of base business performance across periods, and to allow financial analysts to evaluate Enis trading performance on the basis of their forecasting models.
The following is a description of items that are excluded from the calculation of adjusted results.
Inventory holding gain or loss is the difference between the cost of sales of the volumes sold in the period based on the cost of supplies of the same period and the cost of sales of the volumes sold calculated using the weighted-average-cost method of inventory accounting.
Special items include certain significant income or charges pertaining to either: (i) infrequent or unusual events and transactions, being identified as non-recurring items under such circumstances; (ii) certain events or transactions which are not considered to be representative of the ordinary course of business, as in the case of environmental provisions, restructuring charges, asset impairments or write-ups and gains or losses on divestments even though they occurred in past periods or are likely to occur in future ones; or (iii) exchange rate differences and derivatives relating to industrial activities and commercial payables and receivables, particularly exchange rate derivatives to manage commodity pricing formulas which are quoted in a currency other than the functional currency. Those items are reclassified in operating profit with a corresponding adjustment to net finance charges, notwithstanding the handling of foreign currency exchange risks is made centrally by netting off naturally-occurring opposite positions and then dealing with any residual risk exposure in the exchange rate market. As provided for in Decision No. 15519 of July 27, 2006 of the Italian market regulator (Consob), non-recurring material income or charges are to be clearly reported in the managements discussion and financial tables. Also, special items include gains and losses on re-measurement at fair value of certain non hedging commodity derivatives, including the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges and certain derivatives financial instruments embedded in the pricing formula of long-term gas supply agreements of the Exploration & Production Division. Furthermore, special items include gains and losses on re-measurement at fair value of certain non hedging commodity derivatives, including the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges and certain derivative financial instruments embedded in the pricing formula of long-term gas supply agreements of the Exploration & Production Division.
Finance charges or income related to net borrowings excluded from the adjusted net profit of business segments are comprised of interest charges on finance debt and interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents not related to operations. Therefore, the adjusted net profit of business segments includes finance charges or income deriving from certain segment-operated assets, i.e., interest income on certain receivable financing and securities related to operations and finance charge pertaining to the accretion of certain provisions recorded on a discounted basis (as in the case of the asset retirement obligations in the Exploration & Production Division). Finance charges or interest income and related taxation effects excluded from the adjusted net profit of the business segments are allocated on the aggregate Corporate and financial companies.
For a reconciliation of adjusted operating profit and adjusted net profit to reported operating profit and reported net profit see tables below.

Summarized Group Balance Sheet
The Summarized Group Balance Sheet aggregates the amount of assets and liabilities derived from the statutory balance sheet in accordance with functional criteria which consider the enterprise conventionally divided into the three fundamental areas focusing on resource investments, operations and financing. Management believes that this Summarized Group Balance Sheet is useful information in assisting investors to assess Enis capital structure and to analyze its sources of funds and investments in fixed assets and working capital. Management uses the Summarized Group Balance Sheet to calculate key ratios such as return on capital employed (ROACE) and the proportion of net borrowings to shareholders equity (leverage) intended to evaluate whether Enis financing structure is sound and well-balanced.

(a) For a reconciliation to the statutory statement of cash flow see the paragraph "Reconciliation of Summarized Group Balance Sheet and Statement of Cash Flows to Statutory Schemes".
The Summarized Group Balance Sheet was affected by a sharp movement in the EUR/USD exchange rate which determined an increase in net capital employed, net borrowings and total equity of euro 3,766 million, euro 259 million and euro 3,507 million, respectively. This was due to translation into euros of the financial statements of US-denominated subsidiaries reflecting a 7.83% appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the euro (1 EUR = 1.119 USD at June 30, 2015 compared to 1.214 USD at December 31, 2014).
Fixed assets Fixed assets (euro 87,701 million) increased by euro 5,493 million from December 31, 2014. This trend was attributable to favorable currency movements and capital expenditure (euro 6,237 million), partly offset by depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment charges of euro 5,851 million.
Net working capital Net working capital (negative euro 6,154 million) decreased by euro 862 million. This reflected: (i) higher provisions (up euro 489 million) due to currency movements and higher tax payables and provisions for net deferred tax liabilities (up by euro 449 million) due to taxes accrued in the period; and (ii) a lower balance of trade receivables and trade payables (up by euro 654 million) mainly in the Gas & Power segment. These

decreases were offset by increased other current assets and liabilities (up by euro 899 million) following the increase of net receivables vs. joint venture partners in the Exploration & Production segment.
Net assets held for sale including related liabilities Net assets held for sale including related liabilities (euro 106 million) mainly included the fair value of the networks for marketing fuels in Slovakia and the Czech Republic.
Leverage and net borrowings
Leverage is a measure used by management to assess the Companys level of indebtedness. It is calculated as a ratio of net borrowings which is calculated by excluding cash and cash equivalents and certain very liquid assets from financial debt to shareholders equity, including non-controlling interest. Management periodically reviews leverage in order to assess the soundness and efficiency of the Group Balance Sheet in terms of optimal mix between net borrowings and net equity, and to carry out a benchmarking analysis with industry standards.

Net borrowings as of June 30, 2015, amounted to euro 16,477 million, up by euro 2,792 million from December 31, 2014.
Total debt amounted to euro 27,460 million, of which euro 9,114 million were short term (including the portion of long-term debt due within 12 months equal to euro 4,015 million) and euro 18,346 million were long term.
The ratio of net borrowings to shareholders equity including non-controlling interest leverage was 0.26 at June 30, 2015 (0.22 at December 31, 2014). This increase was due to greater net borrowings partly offset by higher total equity, which was helped by a sizable appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the euro in the translation of the financial statements of Enis subsidiaries that uses the U.S. dollar as functional currency, resulting in an equity gain of euro 3,507 million. The U.S. dollar was up by 7.8% against the euro at the closing rates of June 30, 2015 compared to December 31, 2014.

Shareholders equity including non-controlling interest was euro 63,872 million, representing an increase of euro 1,663 million from December 31, 2014. This was due to comprehensive income for the period (euro 3,672 million) due to net profit (euro 57 million), positive foreign currency translation differences (euro 3,507 million) and a positive change in the cash flow hedge reserve (euro 156 million). These positives were offset by dividend distribution and other changes of euro 2,009 million (euro 2,017 million being the 2014 balance dividend paid to Enis shareholders and dividends to other subsidiaries).

Summarized Group Cash Flow Statement
Enis Summarized Group Cash Flow Statement derives from the Statutory Statement of Cash Flows. It enables investors to understand the connection existing between changes in cash and cash equivalents (deriving from the Statutory Cash Flows Statement) and in net borrowings (deriving from the Summarized Cash Flow Statement) that occurred in the reporting period. The measure which links the two statements is represented by the free cash flow which is calculated as difference between the cash flow generated from operations and the net cash used in investing activities. Starting from free cash flow it is possible to determine either: (i) changes in cash and cash equivalents for the period by adding/deducting cash flows relating to financing debts/receivables (issuance/repayment of debt and receivables related to financing activities), shareholders equity (dividends paid, net repurchase of own shares, capital issuance) and the effect of changes in consolidation and of exchange rate differences; and (ii) change in net borrowings for the period by adding/deducting cash flows relating to shareholders equity and the effect of changes in consolidation and of exchange rate differences. The free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure of financial performance.

Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to euro 5,678 million. Proceeds from disposals were euro 644 million and mainly related to the divestment of non-strategic assets in the Exploration & Production business. These inflows funded part of the capital expenditure for the period (euro 6,237 million) and the payment of the 2014 balance dividend (euro 2,017 million) to Enis shareholders. The Groups net debt increased by euro 2,792 million from December 31, 2014, reflecting currency translation differences amounting to euro 259 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was positively affected by higher receivables due beyond the end of the reporting period, being transferred to financing institutions, in comparison to the amount transferred at the end of the previous reporting period (up by euro 95 million from December 31, 2014).

Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Financial review and other information
Risk factors and uncertainties
Foreword
In this section are described the main risks Eni faces in each of its business segments. For the disclosure on financial risks (market, counterparty and liquidity risk), see note 27 "Guarantees, commitments and risks" in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.
Risks related to the cyclicality of the oil&gas sector
Enis operating results, mainly of the Exploration & Production segment, are exposed to volatile prices of crude oil and natural gas. Higher oil prices increase the Group consolidated results of operations and cash flow; vice versa, in case of falling oil prices. The oil industry is currently in the midst of a downturn driven by global oversupplies and sluggish demand growth, against the backdrop of more competitive oil markets, a reduced grip on prices by OPEC, with geopolitical crisis having marginal impacts on prices.
In the first half of 2015, the Brent marker price averaged $58/bbl, decreasing by approximately 50% from the same period of the previous year. Management forecasts a full year Brent price of $61/bbl in 2015 and a progressive recovery in the subsequent four-year plan period, up to the long-term price of $90/bbl. Our long-term price assumption are based on projection of a progressive reduction in oversupplies, a strengthening in the pace of demand growth and as the planned cuts in development expenditures by oil companies starts impacting the global balance.
Eni estimates that movements in oil prices impact approximately 50% of Enis current production. Eni does not hedge this exposure, except for specific businesss cases or market conditions. A further 35% of Enis current production which derives from Production Sharing Contracts (PSCs) is unaffected by crude oil price movements.
We estimate that our consolidated net profit varies by approximately euro 0.15 billion for each one-dollar change in the price of the Brent crude oil benchmark with respect to the price case assumed in our financial projections for 2015 at $55/bbl. Free cash flow is expected to reduce/increase by a similar amount.
In addition to the adverse effect on revenues, profitability and cash flow, lower oil and gas prices could result in debooking of proved reserves, if they become uneconomic in this type of environment, and asset impairments.
Future oil prices may substantially differ from the price used in calculating Enis estimated proved reserves and their net present value determined by using the 10% discount factor, as of December 31, 2014.
The prices used in calculating our estimated proved reserves are, in accordance with U.S. SEC requirements, calculated by determining the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month commodity prices for the preceding 12 months. For the 12-months ending December 31, 2014, average prices were based on $101 per barrel for the Brent crude oil.
Commodity prices declined significantly in the first half of 2015 and if such prices do not increase significantly in the second half of the year, our calculations of 2015 estimated proved reserves will be based on lower commodity prices, which could result in having to remove non-economic reserves from our proved reserves. This effect will be counterbalanced in full or in part by increased reserves corresponding to the additional volume entitlements under our PSAs relating to cost oil: i.e. because of

lower oil and gas prices, the reimbursement of expenditures incurred by the Company requires additional volumes of reserves.
Proved developed reserves calculated in accordance with U.S. SEC requirements at the balance sheet date are generally the baseline in the first three quarters of the following year for determining the depreciation of oil&gas assets in respect of the unit-of-production method, which considers the proved developed reserves of the previous year as denominator of the UOP rate. In the fourth quarter, depreciation is determined considering a new reserve estimate. Considering the marked decline in crude oil prices of the first half 2015, Eni evaluated the impact on the UOP rate for the second quarter 2015 of an update of our proved reserves estimates as of June 30, 2015 to factor in a decreases in the 12-month average commodity prices as of June 30, 2015. The reserve update was performed at all of our PSAs contracts and at certain assets at risk of a reserve debooking due to lower prices. The reference price for this sensitivity analysis was $76 per barrel, calculated by determining the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month commodity prices for the 12 months ending June 30, 2015. The result of this sensitivity analysis was immaterial and management decided not to reflect the sensitivity analysis in the group net profit for the first half of 2015.
At December 31, 2014, the net present value of our proved reserves totaled approximately euro 59.6 billion. The average prices used to estimate our proved reserves and the net present value at December 31, 2014, as calculated in accordance with U.S. SEC rules, were $101/bbl for the Brent crude oil. Commodity prices have decreased significantly in recent months. Holding all other factors constant, if commodity prices used in our year-end reserve estimates were in line with the pricing environment existing in the first half of 2015, our PV-10 at December 31, 2014 could decrease significantly.
A prolonged decline in commodity price may affect the return of development projects in case actual prices would be lower than the prices assumed when the final investment decision was made. In such a scenario, Eni would review its capex plan, re-phasing, delaying or canceling certain projects, which would negatively affect our growth rate. The Company, like other players in the industry, assesses its oil&gas projects based on long-term scenarios for oil prices, which reflect managements best assumptions about the underlying fundamentals of global demand and supply. This approach supports the achievement of the expected returns on capital projects through the swings of the oil&gas cycle.
Volatile oil prices represent an uncertainty factor in view of achieving the Companys operating targets of production growth and reserve replacement due to the relevant amount of Production Sharing Agreements in Enis portfolio. Under such contracts, the Company is entitled to receive a portion of the production, the sale of which should cover expenditures incurred and earn the Company a share of profit. Accordingly, the higher are the reference prices for crude oil used to determine production and reserve entitlements, the lower is the number of barrels to cover the same dollar amounts hence the amounts of booked production and reserves; and vice versa. The Company currently estimates that production entitlements in its PSAs increases on average by approximately 1,000 bbl/d for each $1 decrease in oil prices. The impact of price effects on the Companys production was 58 kbbl/d in the first half of 2015. This sensitivity analysis relates to the existing Eni portfolio and might vary in the future.
The Groups results from its Refining & Marketing and Chemicals businesses are primarily dependent upon the supply and demand for refined products and the associated margins on refined product sales and petrochemical products sales, with the impact of changes in oil prices on results on these segments being dependent upon the speed at which the prices of products adjust to reflect movements in oil prices.
In the first half of 2015, the Refining & Marketing business reported a substantial improvement from 2014, with adjusted operating profit of euro 131 million reversing the operating loss incurred in the first half 2014 of euro 387 million. This improvement reflected a recovery in the Standard Eni Refining Margin, which averaged $8.3 per barrel, increasing more than five times compared with the scenario of 2014.
However, management believes this recovery has been sustained by decreasing oil prices and from the appreciation of gasoline reflecting lower product availability due to unplanned downtime at certain facilities in a number of areas.
Looking forward, management expects refining margins to decline from current levels due to the structural headwinds, which still affects the European refining industry, including excess capacity, stagnant demand and increasing competitive pressure from streams of cheaper oil products imported

from Russia, Asia and the United States. Considering those drivers, management decided not to recognize any write-up of refineries impaired in previous years.
Enis strategy in the refining business is based on innovation, increasing conversion capacity from heavy crudes to premium products, reconversion of traditional plants with low conversion index or high structural costs in plants for biofuel production leveraging on proprietary technologies, and efficiency recovery and productive process optimization. Through these strategic guidelines, Eni will further reduce the refining breakeven margin, thus making the system profitable even in depress scenarios.
Also the Chemical business reported a remarkable increase in the operating performance for the first half of 2015, halving the operating losses of the first half of 2014 (from a loss of euro 182 million in the first half of 2014 to a profit of euro 95 million in the first half of 2015). This result was driven by a recovery in commodity margins (mainly relating to the ethylene-polyethylene-styrene) following temporary shortage due to the unplanned facility downtime, an appreciable recovery in demand and the depreciation of the euro against other currencies, which reduced the competitive advantages of imports from abroad.
Looking forward, management expects that Enis chemical business will continue to be exposed, even if at a lesser extent than in the past due to the rationalization activities already performed, to volatile oil-based feedstock prices, the cyclicality of demand, given the commoditized nature of our portfolio of products, and structural headwinds facing the traditional oil-based chemical business. The business is characterized by low entry barriers, overcapacity, increasing competitive pressure from South-East Asian and Middle East producers and, shortly U.S. producers, which benefit from economies of scale and competitive cost structure.
Against this backdrop, management believes that the profitability outlook of Enis Chemicals business over the long term will depend on the execution of the strategy intended to reduce the exposure to loss-making, commoditized businesses, while the Companys presence will grow in the innovative segments of bio-plastics and niche productions, particularly elastomers and styrene, which showed good resilience during the downturn. Proprietary technologies will be monetized through industrial joint-ventures with partners in East Asia which will leverage growing local markets.
The Engineering & Construction segment is exposed to the cyclicality of crude oil prices, which may force oil companies to revise their capital budget plans and to macroeconomic uncertainties which may hold back clients final investment decisions.
Country risk
A substantial portion of Enis oil and gas reserves and gas supplies are located in Countries outside the EU and the North America, namely in Africa, Central Asia and Central-Southern America, where the socio-political framework and macroeconomic outlook is less stable than in the OECD Countries. As of December 31, 2014, approximately 79% of Enis proved hydrocarbon reserves were located in such Countries and 60% of Enis supplies of natural gas came from outside OECD Countries. Adverse political, social and economic developments, such as internal conflicts, revolutions, establishment of non-democratic regimes, protests, strikes and other forms of civil disorder, contraction of economic activity and financial difficulties of the local governments with repercussions on the solvency of state institutions, inflation levels, exchange rates and similar events in any of those less stable Countries may negatively affect Enis ability to continue operating in an economic way, either temporarily or permanently, and Enis ability to access oil and gas reserves.
In particular, Eni faces risks in connection with the following, possible issues: (i) lack of well-established and reliable legal systems and uncertainties surrounding enforcement of contractual rights; (ii) unfavorable enforcement of laws, regulations and contractual arrangements leading, for example, to loss of value of Enis assets, expropriations, nationalizations or forced divestitures of assets; (iii) restrictions on exploration, production, imports and exports; (iv) tax or royalty increases; (v) political and social instability which could result in civil and social unrest, internal conflicts and other forms of protest and disorder such as strikes, riots, sabotage, acts of violence and similar incidents; (vi) difficulties in finding qualified suppliers in critical operating environment; and (vii) complex process in granting authorizations or licenses affecting time-to-market of certain development projects.

While the occurrence of these events is unpredictable, it is likely that the occurrence of such events could adversely impact Eni financial exposure.
In the current low oil price environment, the financial outlook of certain Countries where Enis hydrocarbons reserves are located has significantly deteriorated due to a contraction in the proceeds associated with the exploitation of hydrocarbons resources. This may increase the risk of a sovereign default, which may cause political and macroeconomic instability. Furthermore, in certain context, Eni is partnering with the national oil companies of such countries in executing oil&gas development projects. A possible sovereign default might jeopardize the financial feasibility of ongoing projects or increase the financial exposure of Eni, which would be contractually obligated to finance the share of development expenditures of the first party. This risk is mitigated by the customary default clause, which states that in case of a default, the non-defaulting party is entitled to compensate its claims with the share of production of the defaulting party.
Eni closely monitors political, social and economical risks of approximately 60 Countries in which has invested or intends to invest, in order to evaluate the economic and financial return of certain projects and to selectively evaluate projects.
As of the end of 2014, approximately 27% of the Companys proved oil and gas reserves were located in North Africa. Since 2011, several North African and Middle Eastern oil producing Countries have been experiencing an extreme level of political instability that has resulted in changes of governments, internal conflict, unrest and violence which caused economic disruptions and shutdowns in industrial activities.
The instability of the socio-political framework in those Countries still represents an area of concern involving risks and uncertainties for the foreseeable future.
Particularly, the internal situation in Libya continues to represent an issue to Enis management. Following the internal conflict of 2011 and the fall of the regime which forced the Company to shutdown almost all its producing facilities including gas exports for a period of about 8 months, a period of social and political instability began which turned into disorders, strikes, protests and a resurgence of the internal conflict. These events jeopardized Enis ability to perform its industrial activity in safety, forcing the Company to interrupt its operations on certain occasions as precautionary measure.
Considering the escalation of the geopolitical risk in the Middle East and in the Northern Africa since the end of 2014, management strengthened security measures at the companys production installation and facilities in Libya. Still in the first half of 2015, Enis assets in Libya marched regularly.
Falling crude oil prices have severely hit the financial situation of Libya and of the National Oil Co (NOC), partner of Eni in the development projects in the Country.
In spite of a moderate strengthening of the political and institutional framework, Egypts financial stability remains at risk, as witnessed by the continued difficulties of local oil and gas companies to fulfill financial obligations towards international oil companies. As of June 30, 2015, Eni owned a significant amount of trade payables due (euro 966 million compared to euro 763 million as of December 31, 2014) with respect of supplies of its oil and gas entitlements to local companies. Leveraging on the established relationships with its local partners, a number of industrial and commercial initiatives have been planned or executed targeting to speed up the recovery of overdue amounts of trade payables. Management believes that its exposure towards its Egyptian partners will decline in the reminder of year 2015 due to the ramp-up of ongoing initiatives and finalization of other agreements with local counterparties (for further information see also note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements).
Also our activities in Nigeria have been impacted in recent years by continuing episodes of theft, acts of sabotage and other similar disruptions which have jeopardized the Companys ability to conduct operations in full security, particularly in the onshore area of the Niger Delta. These frequent and recurring events affected Enis operations in the Country.
Looking forward, Eni expects that these events will continue to affect Enis operations in those Countries. Particularly, the uncertain socio-political outlook in Libya and unsafe operational conditions onshore Nigeria were factored in the Companys projections of future production levels in these two Countries and in setting the Group production targets for the medium term.
Other geopolitical risks are associated with partnerships between Europe and certain Countries of the Middle East, which may lead to the imposition of sanctions by the United States and the European Union.

Enis presence in Iran is immaterial. Enis projects in Iran are currently in the cost recovery phase, since the Darquain oilfield project has been handed over to our Iranian counterpart in late 2014, marking Enis exit from any direct involvement in the Iranian oil sector. We were granted all relevant waivers and authorizations from the EU and the US authorities to import Iranian crude oil in order of being reimbursed of our past investments in Country and we believe that we are complying with any sanction regime towards Iran.
The political crisis in Russia and Ukraine referred to the Crimeas independence from Ukraine as a single united nation led the EU and the United States to impose a set of sanctions to Russia. The EU and US enacted sanctions are mainly targeting the financial sector and the energy sector in Russia.
Approximately 30% of Enis natural gas is supplied by Russia and Eni is currently partnering the Russian company Rosneft in executing exploration activities in the Russian sections of the Barents Sea and the Black Sea. Contracts pertaining to the abovementioned exploration licenses were entered into before the enactment of the restrictive measures and Eni started the required authorization procedure before the relevant EU Member States Authorities. This process is still ongoing. However, the outcome is uncertain and we cannot exclude major delays in our ongoing or planned oil&gas exploration projects in Russia.
Risks associated with the exploration and production of oil and natural gas
Safety, security, environmental and other operational risk
For these risks, see our disclosure in Annual Report on Form 20-2014.
Risks associated with the trading environment and competition in the gas market
The outlook of the European gas market is still negatively affected by oversupply, on the back of a weak macroeconomic scenario. Gas demand was hit by a steep fall in consumption in the thermoelectric sector which was affected by lower demand and an ongoing expansion of renewable sources of electricity and higher use of coal displacing gas due to cost advantages and lower rates for obtaining emission allowances in Europe. In 2015, gas demand in Italy is expected to recover slightly, increasing by 2% under normal temperatures, or 9% considering the mild winter weather conditions reported in 2014, reflecting the exceptionally high hydroelectric production in 2014.
Looking forward, management does not expect any meaningful recovery in gas demand in Italy and in Europe for the foreseeable future, targeting 70 bcm and 460 bcm by 2019, respectively, representing an average growth rate of approximately 1% over the period. The level of gas demand in Europe expected in 2019 will be 80 bcm lower than the pre-crisis level of 2008, as the downturn drove trends of demand destruction.
Before the beginning of the downturn, gas wholesaler operators in Europe (overestimating the projected growth rates in demand) committed to purchase large amounts of gas under long-term supply contracts with producing countries (Russia, Algeria, Libya, Norway and the Netherlands) also bearing the volume risk as a result of the take-or-pay clause of those contracts. They also upgraded pipeline capacity and LNG terminals to import gas to Europe.
The "shale gas revolution" in the United States was another fundamental trend that aggravated the oversupply situation in Europe. The discovery and development of large deposits of shale gas in the United States has progressively reduced to zero the Countrys dependence on LNG imports. As a result of this, upstream producers were forced to redirect large LNG supplies to markets elsewhere in the world, including Europe. Large gas availability on the marketplace in Europe fuelled by take-or-pay contracts and worldwide LNG streams has driven the development of very liquid continental hubs to trade spot gas. Shortly spot prices at continental hubs have become the main benchmarks to which selling prices are indexed in supplies to large industrial customers, thermoelectric utilities and, more recently, to the residential sector. Gas wholesalers, including Eni, lost competitiveness in the current trading environment due to lack of flexibility of long-term, take-or-pay contracts and as spot prices ceased to track the oil prices to which the purchase cost of gas in long-term supply contracts were linked, resulting in a decoupling between

trends in prices and in costs. These trends were exacerbated by the need of gas wholesalers to dispose of minimum annual volumes of gas purchased under long-term supply contracts in order to contain the financial exposure dictated by the take-or-pay clause.
In the first half of 2015, on the back of a weak gas market scenario due to increasing competitive pressure, Enis Gas & Power segment reported an adjusted operating profit of euro 325 million, an increase of euro 69 million from the first half of 2014. This result was driven by an improved competitiveness of the long-term gas supply portfolio on the back of the renegotiation of a large part of it.
Due to a round of renegotiations finalized over the last couple of years and up to date, approximately 70% of Enis long-term gas supply portfolio is now indexed to hub prices, thus reducing the commodity risk due to the different indexation between hub-related selling prices and the purchase cost of gas.
Eni anticipates a number of risk factors to the profitability outlook of the Companys gas marketing business over the next two to three years. Those include weak demand growth due to macroeconomic uncertainties, declining thermoelectric consumption, continuing oversupplies and strong competition. Eni believes that those trends will negatively impact the gas marketing business future results of operations and cash flows by reducing gas selling prices and margins, also considering Enis obligations under its take-or-pay supply contracts.
In particular, Enis wholesale business results are exposed to the volatility of the spreads between spot prices at European hubs and Italian spot prices.
Against this backdrop, Enis management will continue to execute its renegotiation strategy of the Companys long-term gas supply contracts in order to align pricing and volume terms to current market conditions. The revisions clause provided by these contracts states the right of each counterparty to renegotiate the economic terms and other contractual conditions periodically, in relation to ongoing changes in the gas scenario.
Management believes that the outcome of those renegotiations is uncertain in respect of both the amount of the economic benefits that will be ultimately achieved and the timing of recognition in profit. Furthermore, in case Eni and the gas suppliers fail to agree on revised contractual terms, an arbitration procedure could be started to solve the commercial dispute. This potentially adds to the level of uncertainty surrounding the outcome of those renegotiations. Future results of the Gas Marketing activities are subject to increasing volatility and unpredictability.
Current, negative trends in gas demands and supplies may impair the Companys ability to fulfill its minimum off take obligations in connection with its take-or-pay, long-term gas supply contracts
In order to secure long-term access to gas availability, particularly with a view of supplying the Italian gas market and anticipating certain trends in gas demand which actually failed to materialize, Eni has signed a number of long-term gas supply contracts with national operators of key producing Countries that supply the European gas markets.
These contracts include take-or-pay clauses whereby the Company is required to off-take minimum, pre-set volumes of gas in each year of the contractual term or, in case of failure, to pay the whole price, or a fraction of that price, up to the minimum contractual quantity. The take-or-pay clause entitles the Company to off-take pre-paid volumes of gas in later years. Amounts of cash pre-payments and time schedules for off-taking pre-paid gas vary from contract to contract. Generally, cash pre-payments are calculated on the basis of the energy prices current in the year when the Company is scheduled to purchase the gas, with the balance due in the year when the gas is actually purchased.
The right to off-take pre-paid gas expires within a ten-year term in some contracts or remains in place until contract expiration in other arrangements. In addition, the right to off-take the pre-paid gas can be exercised in future years provided that the Company has fulfilled its minimum take obligation in a given year and within the limit of the maximum annual quantity. Similar considerations apply to ship-or-pay contractual obligations.
Although during the recent supply contract round of renegotiations the minimum pre-set volumes of gas that the Company is required to off-take has been significantly reduced, management believes that the current market outlook which will be driven by a weak recovery in gas demand and large gas availability,

as well as strong competitive pressures in the marketplace and the possible changes in the sector specific regulation represent a risk factor to the Companys ability to fulfill its minimum take obligations associated with its long-term supply contracts, considering also the Companys plans for its sales volumes which are anticipated to remain flat or to decrease slightly in 2015 and in the subsequent years. In this scenario, management is committed to the renegotiation of long-term gas supply contract and on portfolio optimization, in order to reduce the exposure to take-or-pay contracts and to the related financial risk.
Thanks to contract renegotiations and effective selling activities, in 2014, the Company lifted the underlying volumes, the purchase cost of which the Company advanced to its gas supplies in previous years due to the incurrence of the take-or-pay clause, achieving a reduction in its deferred costs recorded in the balance sheet (from euro 2.4 billion at the end of 2012 down to approximately euro 0.9 billion at 2014 year end, confirmed as at June 30, 2015). Looking forward, based on trends in offering and demand of natural gas, Companys assumptions on sales volumes and average sales margins, the probable outcome of ongoing contract renegotiations, management plans to substantially finalize the recovery of the residual amounts of gas paid in advance by the plan period, fulfilling contractual clauses and recovering the prepaid amounts.
Risks associated with the regulatory powers entrusted to the Italian Authority for Electricity Gas and Water
Enis Gas & Power segment is exposed to regulatory risks mainly in its domestic market in Italy. Developments in the regulatory framework may negatively affect future sales margins of gas and electricity, operating results and cash flow. Below it is provided a summary of the most important aspects of the ongoing regulatory framework of the gas sector in Italy including managements evaluation of the possible impacts on future results of operations in the G&P segment.
Legislative Decree No. 130 of August 13, 2010 titled "New measures to improve competitiveness in the natural gas market and to ensure the transfer of economic benefits to final customers" became effective. This new regulation replaced the previous system of gas antitrust thresholds defined by Legislative Decree No. 164 of May 23, 2000 by introducing a 40% ceiling to the wholesale market share of each Italian gas operator who inputs gas into the Italian backbone network. In the frame of Legislative Decree No. 130/2010 Eni has committed itself to build new storage capacity for 4 BCM within five years from the enactment of the Decree; as a consequence the cap provided by the Legislative Decree No. 130/2010 to its market share in Italy rises from 40% to 55%. In the case of violations of the mandatory threshold, Eni is obliged to execute gas release measures at regulated prices up to 4 BCM over a two-year period following the ascertainment of the breach. Access to the new storage capacity is reserved to industrial customers and their consortium and to gas-fired power plants. Furthermore, the Decree establishes that upon request, industrial customers are granted, for the new storage capacity which is not yet available: from April 2012 a "virtual storage service", which consists of the possibility to deliver gas during the summer to a "virtual storage operator" at an European hub TTF, Zeebrugge or PSV and to collect equivalent gas quantities during the winter at the Italian PSV, paying for the service a fee equivalent to the cost of storage plus transmission costs, if any. Therefore, industrial operators benefit from the price differentials due to the seasonal swings of gas demand.
The Authority for Electricity Gas and Water (the "AEEGSI") is entrusted with certain powers in the matter of natural gas pricing. Specifically, the AEEGSI holds a general surveillance power on pricing in the natural gas market in Italy and the power to establish selling tariffs for the supply of natural gas to residential and commercial users (as provided for by Resolution ARG/gas No. 64/2009) taking into account the public goal of containing the inflationary pressure due to rising energy costs. Accordingly, decisions of the AEEGSI on these matters may limit the ability of Eni to pass an increase in the cost of the raw material onto final consumers of natural gas.
In 2013, the Regulatory Authority for Electricity Gas and Water (the "AEEGSI") changed the pricing mechanism of gas supplies to retail customers by introducing a full indexation of the raw material cost component of the tariff to spot prices, which replaced an oil-linked indexation. The new regulatory regime was introduced in a market scenario where spot gas prices were significantly lower compared to gas

prices under long-term oil-linked contracts, as the Brent price at the time was about $100/barrel. Subsequently, the Resolution 447/2013/R/Gas introduced a compensation mechanism to promote the renegotiation of long-term gas supply contracts. This compensation mechanism is intended to mitigate the impact of the new tariff regime to operators with long-term supply contracts (typically oil-linked) by reimbursing to them part of the higher long term gas supply costs which are no longer recoverable trough tariffs. This compensation mechanism is intended to cover the three thermal years, from October 2013 through October 2016.
The Authority set the initial amount of the compensation in 2013 based on the documentation filed by each operator, taking into account the price differential between a theoretically efficient gas price under long-term contracts and spot prices at the Dutch platform TTF. The cost curve elaborated by the Authority relating to Eni for the year 2013 projected supply cost trends, under various oil prices assumptions, which mirrored Enis expected costs of gas supplies. In the light of the results, the Authority based on forward prices of Enis gas costs and certain volume assumptions established a maximum compensation of euro 160 million, to which Eni would be entitled for the three-thermal year period of the mechanism implementation. The AEEGSI resolution envisages that 40% of the compensation is due in the first thermal year, 40% in the second year and 20% in the third thermal year. In each thermal year, the Authority updates the compensation mechanism to verify that gas operators still have right to the compensation in light of current trends in the gas costs and prices. Based on this, the initial amount of the compensation can be confirmed or reduced. It is established that reduction occurs in case spot prices exceed gas prices under long-term gas supply contracts.
In 2014, the Authority updated the index of supply costs applicable to Enis portfolio. Consequently, under a $100/barrel scenario, the Authority ratified the first tranche of the initial amount of the compensation equal to euro 60 million (or the 40% of the initial amount). This gain was recognized in the group consolidated financial statements for the year 2014, according to the recognition requirements envisaged by the AEEGSI. However, in the current $60/barrel Brent price scenario, the index of procurement cost turned to be no longer reflective of the set-up of Enis gas supply portfolio, which in the meantime has been largely renegotiated. Following the round of renegotiations of our long-term gas supply contracts, which took place in the 2013-2014 period, the Company portfolio is currently indexed for a large portion to spot prices and as such it is not benefiting of falling crude oil prices.
In November 2015, the AEEGSI will update the index of procurement cost for thermal year 2015. In this context, two possible scenarios can be envisaged: (i) the Authority will determine that Enis supply costs have evolved according to the AEEGSI projections made in 2013. Under this scenario, the initial amount of the compensation of euro 160 million will be confirmed (and therefore recognized in the 2015 financial statements, for a 40% tranche equal to euro 60 million); and (ii) the Authority will determine that Enis supply costs have fallen below spot prices. Under this scenario, Eni could incur a loss up to three times the amount of the initial compensation or euro 480 million, plus giving back the euro 60 million amount recognized in 2014.
The final outcome is expected in the fourth quarter of 2015 when the Authority is scheduled to update the supply cost index for the thermal year 2015, on which basis Eni will recognize the profit and loss impact (positive or negative as the case may be).
In the light of oil price trends, Eni prudently contested the Resolution 549/2014/R/gas, which implements the compensation mechanism. Eni claimed that the Resolution did not provided sufficient criteria for updating the compensation and could potentially determine unfair results, also contending its legitimacy. Besides that, Eni might appeal against the update of its index of procurement cost for thermal year 2015, which is expected in the fourth quarter, in case of an unfavorable outcome.
Risks related to legal proceedings and compliance with anti-corruption legislation
Eni is the defendant in a number of civil actions and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. In addition to existing provisions accrued as of December 31, 2014 to account for ongoing proceedings, it is possible that in future years Eni may incur significant losses in addition to the amounts already accrued in connection with pending legal proceedings due to: (i) uncertainty regarding

the final outcome of each proceeding; (ii) the occurrence of new developments that management could not take into consideration when evaluating the likely outcome of each proceeding in order to accrue the risk provisions as of the date of the latest financial statements; (iii) the emergence of new evidence and information; and (iv) underestimation of probable future losses due to the circumstance that they are often inherently difficult to estimate. Certain legal proceedings where Eni or its subsidiaries or its officers are parties involve the alleged breach of anticorruption laws and regulations and ethical misconduct. Ethical misconduct and non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations, including non-compliance with anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws, by Eni, its partners, agents or others that act on the Groups behalf, could expose Eni and its employees to criminal and civil penalties and could be damaging to Enis reputation and shareholder value.

Outlook
The Company is forecasting a moderate strengthening in global economic growth in 2015, driven by the United States. However, certain risks have the potential to mitigate this outlook: uncertainty remains around the strength of the Eurozone recovery, the extent of the slowdown of the Chinese economy and of other emerging economies, as well as the extent of stability in financial markets. Oil prices are forecast to be significantly lower than the last year, due to oversupplied global markets. In the Exploration & Production segment, management will carry out efficiency initiatives in operating costs and by optimizing investments, while retaining a strong focus on project execution and time-to-market in order to cope with the negative impact of a lower oil price environment. Looking at the Companys business segments exposed to the European economic outlook, Enis management anticipates challenging trading conditions reflecting structural headwinds due to weak commodity demand, oversupply/overcapacity and competitive pressure. The fall in oil prices may only lessen the negative impact of such trends. A recovery in profitability in these sectors will leverage on the continued renegotiation of gas supply contracts, restructuring/reconversion of the production capacity tied to the oil cycle, cost efficiencies and margin optimization.
Management expects the following production and sales trends for Eni's businesses: - hydrocarbon production : production is expected to achieve strong growth, up over 7% driven by continuing new fields start-ups and ramp-ups in 2014 mainly at our profit centers in Venezuela, Norway, the United States, Angola and Congo and projections of higher volumes in Libya; - gas sales : excluding the impact of the divestment of Enis assets in Germany and the unusual weather conditions in 2014, natural gas sales are expected to remain stable compared to 2014. Management intends to leverage on marketing innovation in the wholesale and retail markets in order to mitigate competitive pressures; - refining throughputs on Enis account : excluding the impact of the divestment of the Company share of capacity in Eastern Europe, volumes are expected to increase driven by a favorable trading environment and better plant performance on the back of yield ramp-up at the EST conversion unit at the Sannazzaro refinery and lower facility downtime. Production of bio-fuels are projected to increase at the restructured Venice plant; and - retail sales of refined products in Italy and the Rest of Europe : retail sales in Italy are expected to slightly decline compared to 2014 due to weak demand trends and strong competitive pressure. However, the proprietary network is expected to perform well. Outside Italy, retail sales are expected to be stable excluding the impact of the ongoing divestment of the Companys retail networks in Eastern Europe.
In 2015, in the context of lower oil prices, Enis management plans to implement capital project optimization and rescheduling which will reduce expenditure compared to the 2014 levels, excluding the impact of the U.S. dollar exchange rate. These initiatives are estimated to have a limited impact on our production growth outlook in the near to medium term. Management expects that based on projected cash flows from operations and portfolio transactions, leverage at year end will remain within the 0.30 threshold.

Infilling wells Infilling wells are wells drilled in a producing area in order to improve the recovery of hydrocarbons from the field and to maintain and/or increase production levels.
-
LNG Liquefied Natural Gas obtained through the cooling of natural gas to minus 160 °C at normal pressure. The gas is liquefied to allow transportation from the place of extraction to the sites at which it is transformed and consumed. One tonne of LNG corresponds to 1,400 cubic meters of gas.
-
Mineral Potential (Potentially recoverable hydrocarbon volumes) Estimated recoverable volumes which cannot be defined as reserves due to a number of reasons, such as the temporary lack of viable markets, a possible commercial recovery dependent on the development of new technologies, or for their location in accumulations yet to be developed or where evaluation of known accumulations is still at an early stage.
-
Natural gas liquids Liquid or liquefied hydrocarbons recovered from natural gas through separation equipment or natural gas treatment plants. Propane, normal-butane and isobutane, isopentane and pentane plus, that used to be defined natural gasoline, are natural gas liquids.
-
Oil spills Discharge of oil or oil products from refining or oil waste occurring in the normal course of operations (when accidental) or deriving from actions intended to hinder operations of business units or from sabotage by organized groups (when due to sabotage or terrorism).
-
Olefins (or Alkenes) Hydrocarbons that are particularly active chemically, used for this reason as raw materials in the synthesis of intermediate products and of polymers.
-
Proved reserves Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible from a given date forward, from know reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions. The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a reasonable time.
-
Reserves Quantities of oil and gas and related substances anticipated to be economically producible, as of a given date, by application of development projects to known accumulations. In addition, there must exist, or there must be a reasonable expectation that will exist, the legal right to produce or a revenue interest in the production, installed means of delivering oil and gas or related substances to market, and all permits and financing required to implement the project. Reserves can be: (i) developed reserves quantities of oil and gas anticipated to be through installed extraction equipment and infrastructure operational at the time of the reserves estimate; and (ii) undeveloped reserves: oil and gas expected to be recovered from new wells, facilities and operating methods.
-
Ship-or-pay Clause included in natural gas transportation contracts according to which the customer for which the transportation is carried out is bound to pay for the transportation of the gas also in case the gas is not transported.
-
Take-or-pay Clause included in natural gas purchase contracts according to which the purchaser is bound to pay the contractual price or a fraction of such price for a minimum quantity of the gas set in the contract also in case it is not collected by the customer. The customer has the option of collecting the gas paid and not delivered at a price equal to the residual fraction of the price set in the contract in subsequent contract years.
-
Upstream/downstream The term upstream refers to all hydrocarbon exploration and production activities. The term mid-downstream includes all activities inherent to oil industry subsequent to exploration and production. Process crude oil and oil-based feedstock for the production of fuels, lubricants and chemicals, as well as the supply, trading and transportation of energy commodities. It also includes the marketing business of refined and chemicals products.

Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
| Notes to
the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements | |
| --- | --- |
| 1 Basis of
presentation The Condensed Consolidated
Interim Financial Statements, hereinafter "Interim
Financial Statements", have been prepared in
accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial
Reporting". The statements are the same adopted in
the Annual Report 2014. The Interim Financial Statements have been prepared
adopting the same principles of consolidation and
measurement criteria described in the Annual Report 2014,
except for the international accounting standards adopted
starting from January 1, 2015 and disclosed in the
paragraph "Recent accounting standards" of
Annual Report 2014. The report includes selected explanatory notes. Current income taxes have been calculated based on the
estimated taxable profit of the interim period. Current
tax assets and liabilities have been measured at the
amount expected to be paid to/recovered from the tax
Authorities, using tax laws that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period
and the tax rates estimated on an annual basis. The Interim Financial Statements at June 30, 2015,
were approved by Enis Board of Directors on July
29, 2015. Investments in subsidiaries, joint arrangements and
associates as of June 30, 2015 are presented in annex
"List of companies owned by Eni SpA as of June 30,
2015". A limited review has been carried out by the
independent auditor Reconta Ernst & Young SpA; a
limited review is significantly less in scope than an
audit performed in accordance with the generally accepted
auditing standards. Amounts in the financial statements and in the notes
are expressed in millions of euros (euro million). 2 Changes in accounting policies European Commission Regulation (EU) No. 2015/29 of
December 17, 2014 endorsed the amendment to IAS 19
"Defined Benefit Plans: Employee
Contributions", which allow the recognition of
contributions to defined benefit plans, from employees or
third parties, as a reduction of service cost in the
period in which the | related service is received,
provided that the contributions: (i) are set out in the
formal conditions of the plan; (ii) are linked to
service; and (iii) are independent of number of years of
service (e.g. the contributions are a fixed percentage of
the employees salary or a fixed amount throughout
the service period or dependent on the employees
age). European Commission Regulation (EU) No. 2015/28 of
December 17, 2014 endorsed "Annual Improvements to
IFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle", which include, basically,
technical and editorial changes to existing standards. The
aforementioned EU Regulations required the application of
the amendments to accounting standards as from the first
financial year starting on, or after, February 1, 2015;
earlier application is permitted. The aforementioned
provisions have been applied earlier starting from 2015
financial year. The impact was not material. The adoption of the other amendments to IFRSs
effective from January 1, 2015 did not have a significant
impact on the Interim Fnancial Statements. 3 Changes in accounting

Trade receivables at June 30, 2015, decreased by euro 1,416 million from the prior year balance sheet date mainly in the Gas & Power segment (down euro 1,920 million). Such decrease was partially offset by the increase in the Exploration & Production segment (up euro 334 million). Trade receivables are stated net of the valuation allowance for doubtful accounts of euro 2,565 million (euro 2,353 million at December 31, 2014).

The allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to euro 335 million (euro 197 million in the first half of 2014) and related to the following business segments: (i) the Gas & Power segment for euro 182 million in relation to Italian retail customers who were experiencing financial difficulties. Eni adopted all the necessary actions to mitigate the counterparty risk by large-scale recovery of doubtful accounts through settlement agreements or specific external services; and (ii) Engineering & Construction segment for euro 135 million. Deductions amounting to euro 176 million (euro 26 million in the first half of 2014) related to the Gas & Power segment for euro 109 million and to the Engineering & Construction segment for euro 36 million. In the first half of 2015, Eni had in place transactions to transfer to factoring institutions certain trade receivables without recourse for euro 1,641 million, due beyond June 30, 2015 (euro 1,375 million at December 31, 2014, due in 2015). Transferred receivables mainly related to the Gas & Power segment (euro 1,324 million), the Refining & Marketing and Chemical segment (euro 201 million) and the Engineering & Construction (euro 116 million). Furthermore, the Engineering & Construction segment transferred certain trade receivables without recourse due beyond June 30, 2015 for euro 248 million through Enis subsidiary Serfactoring SpA (euro 419 million at December 31, 2014, due in 2015). Trade receivables amounting to euro 966 million (euro 763 million at December 31, 2014) were overdue in the Exploration & Production segment at the balance sheet date and related to hydrocarbons supplies to Egyptian State-owned companies. Such amount is expected to be significantly reduced in the second half of 2015 due to the implementation of an oil agreement with the counterparties, which defines, among other things, new modalities to recover overdue amounts of trade receivables. Trade receivables included amounts withheld to guarantee certain contract work in progress for euro 167 million (euro 153 million at December 31, 2014).

In the recent years, Eni commenced two arbitration proceedings which outcomes were a favorable final award in one case and a partial award in the other. In relation to the latter, a final award could be issued by the Arbitration Committee on condition that restrictive measures which were issued by a local court, preventing the continuation of this arbitration is revoked. Receivables amounting to euro 91 million at December 31, 2014 to be paid by gas customers for amounts of gas to be delivered following the triggering of the take-or-pay clause provided for by the relevant long-term contracts were fully cashed in the semester. Because of the short-term maturity and conditions of remuneration of trade receivables, the fair value approximated the carrying amount. Receivables with related parties are described in note 35 Transactions with related parties.

Derivative fair values were estimated on the basis of market quotations provided by primary info-provider, or alternatively, appropriate valuation methods commonly used in the marketplace. Fair value of cash flow hedge derivatives of euro 34 million (euro 41 million at December 31, 2014) related to commodity hedging entered by the Gas & Power segment. These derivatives were entered into to hedge variability in future cash flows associated to highly probable future sale transactions of gas or electricity or on already contracted sales due to different indexation mechanism of supply costs versus selling prices. A similar scheme applies to exchange rate hedging derivatives. Negative fair value of contracts expiring by June 30, 2016 is disclosed in note 19 Other current liabilities; positive and negative fair value of contracts expiring beyond June 30, 2016 is disclosed in note 15 Other non-current assets and in note 23 Other non-current liabilities.

of derivatives that lacked the formal criteria to be designated as hedges under IFRS because they were entered into in order to manage net exposures to movements in foreign currencies, interest rates or commodity prices. Therefore, such derivatives were not related to specific trade or financing transactions; and (iii) euro 4 million (euro 34 million at December 31, 2014) of derivatives embedded in the pricing formulas of certain long-term supply contracts of gas in the Exploration & Production segment. Other assets amounting to euro 1,110 million (euro 1,086 million at December 31, 2014) included gas volumes prepayments of euro 550 million (euro 496 million at December 31, 2014) that were made in previous reporting period due to the take-or-pay obligations in the Companys long-term supply contracts, as the Company is forecasting to make-up the underlying gas volumes in the next 12 months based on its sales plans and the flexibility achieved following the round of renegotiations closed in 2014. In the first half of 2015, the carrying amount of the prepayment, assimilated to a credit in kind, was written down by euro 8 million.

In preparing this Interim Report for the first half of 2015, management did not identify any impairment indicator in relation to the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) pertaining to the oil&gas segments with respect to the Annual Report 2014. Management adopted a price scenario which incorporated the latest trends in the forward prices of commodities and market spreads, while confirming its long-term assumptions for the Brent crude oil price at 90 $/bbl (in real terms in 2019) and other relevant variables (refining margin, gross margin of petrochemical plants and others). Furthermore, the negative difference between the market capitalization of Eni (euro 58.2 billion) and the consolidated net assets (euro 61.9 billion) as of June 30, 2015 has improved compared to the Annual Report 2014 (-6% compared to -15%). However, management decided to re-perform the impairment review of the most risky CGUs in the Group portfolio. In particular, in the Exploration & Production segment management considered the CGUs with large net book value and small headroom (excess of the value-in-use in respect of the net book value), the CGUs written down at the most recent balance sheet date, the CGUs comprising unproved mineral interests and other CGUs regarded as critical because of qualitative factors, in order to verify the impact on the recoverability of the net book values of updated projections of operating and development costs and reserves profiles. Furthermore, considering the exposure to the volatility of the price/margin scenario for the commodities, management re-performed the impairment review at: (i) all of the power plants; (ii) the main CGUs of the R&M business; and (iii) all of the CGUs of the Chemical business. These selected assets provided a coverage of about 50% of the Group total tangible assets excluding Saipem. Taking into account of the updated scenario, the review essentially confirmed the book value of the selected CGUs, with the exception of a marginal oil & gas property (impaired for euro 49 million) and a small charge relating to power plants (euro 16 million). In spite of improved refining margins and petrochemical products gross margins recorded in the first half and expected in short-term forecasts, management did not modify its view about the structural issues of these two businesses. Therefore, management did not performed any asset write-up of previously impaired refineries and petrochemical plants, while stay-in-business capital expenditures incurred in the period at those assets was fully impaired (euro 48 million and euro 4 million, respectively). The criteria adopted by Eni in identifying the Group Cash Generating Unit (CGU) and in reviewing the recoverability of carrying amounts remained unchanged in respect of the Annual Report 2014 (see note 16

Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
Property, plant and equipment). In particular, in preparing the Interim Report 2015, management maintained unchanged the estimation of the post-tax rate for discounting the future cash flows of the CGUs equal to the weighted average cost of the capital to Eni, adjusted to factor in risks specific to each country of activity (WACC adjusted). Such estimation considered a reduction in the Italian sovereign risk reflected in the expectations of lower yields for ten-year government bonds and in a reduction of the cost of net borrowings to the Group based on observed trends in the main rate benchmarks and an expected increased use of the gearing. Those positives were partially offset by an increase in the beta of the Eni share. Only for the Gas & Power segment, management assessed a reduction of 70 basis points of the discount rate because of the improving macroeconomic outlook in the Eurozone reflected in a lower country risk premium in respect of the average Enis portfolio. The WACC rates applied in this interim report ranged from 4.8% to 6.9%. Management performed a sensitivity analysis for assess the fairness of its assumptions and the results of the impairment test. Given the volatility in the oil market and the uncertainties about a recovery in oil prices, management tested the resilience of the headroom in a sample of oil&gas properties subjected to impairment test. These assets were selected based on the relevance of the invested capital and a headroom lower than 10% of the book value. The stress test consisted of applying a 10% reduction in the Brent price across all years of the cash flow projections, holding all other operating conditions unchanged. No significant impacts were observed. Finally, for the Kashagan project the headroom was tested by assuming a one-year delay in the restart of production. Also in this case, the result of the review was without significant effects in the dimension of the headroom. With regards to the Engineering & Construction segment, Saipem launched a strategic review of the business (which is described in the section "Operating review - Engineering & Construction" of the managements discussion) considering the deterioration in the competitive environment in the oil service segment driven by weak oil prices which have negatively impacted the spending plans of the clients. As part of this review, Saipem decided to re-perform the impairment test at all its CGUs by using the same methodology adopted for the annual report 2014. Value in use was determined by discounting future post-tax cash flows at a discount rate of 5.9%, 100 basis points lower than the rate used in the annual report 2014. The discount rate benefited from the reduction of the beta of Saipem which effect added to the improvement of the parameters derived from Enis ones (the risk-free rate, the cost of net borrowings and the increased gearing). Furthermore, following the strategic review performed, the Company recorded impairments for euro 211 million in relation to logistic hubs and low-quality vessels based on expectations of lower utilization rates. Foreign currency translation differences of euro 4,251 million primarily related to translations of entities accounts denominated in U.S. dollar (euro 3,838 million), entities accounts denominated in British pound (euro 185 million) and entities accounts denominated in Norwegian krone (euro 162 million). Other changes of euro 93 million included the initial recognition and change in estimates of decommissioning costs and site restoration in the Exploration & Production segment (euro 144 million) and, as decrease, sale of assets (total book value euro 63 million).

Capital expenditures of euro 484 million (euro 772 million in the first half of 2014) included exploration drilling expenditures of the Exploration & Production segment which were fully amortized as incurred for euro 441 million (euro 693 million in the first half of 2014) and license acquisition costs of euro 6 million (euro 4 million in the first half of 2014) primarily related to acquisitions of new exploration acreage in United Kingdom and Ivory Coast. Amortization of euro 642 million (euro 941 million in the first half of 2014) included the amortization of license acquisition costs for euro 78 million (euro 123 million in the first half of 2014). The carrying amount of goodwill at the end of the period was euro 2,225 million (euro 2,197 million at December 31, 2014) net cumulative impairment charges amounting to euro 2,362 million (euro 2,353 million at December 31, 2014).

In the Gas & Power segment, the goodwill allocated to the CGU domestic gas market was recognized upon the buy-out of the former Italgas SpA minorities in 2003 through a public offering (euro 706 million). The Company engaged in the retail sale of gas to the residential sector. In addition, further goodwill amounts have been allocated over the years following business combinations with small, local companies selling gas to residential customers in focused territorial reach and municipalities synergic to Enis activities, the latest acquisition of which was Acam Clienti SpA finalized in 2014 (with an allocated goodwill of euro 32 million).

first half of 2015, management did not identify any impairment indicator. The criteria adopted by Eni in reviewing the recoverability of the goodwill and the relevant sensitivity analysis remained unchanged in respect of the Annual Report 2014 (see note 18 Intangible assets). Goodwill allocated to the CGU European gas market amounting to euro 188 million was recorded following the business combinations of Altergaz SA (now Eni Gas & Power France SA) in France, Nuon Belgium NV (now merged in Eni Gas & Power NV) in Belgium, whose carrying amounts are valued on a stand-alone basis. The management did not identify any impairment indicator in the first half of 2015.

The segment goodwill of euro 748 million was mainly recognized following the acquisition of Bouygues Offshore SA, now Saipem SA (euro 710 million) and allocated to the CGUs Offshore E&C and Onshore E&C. Saipem, based on the same drivers which prompted a re-performing of the impairment review of all the subsidiary tangible assets (see note 10), decided to re-perform the impairment test at both the CGUs to which goodwill was allocated to verify the recoverability of their carrying amounts including any amounts of allocated goodwill. The impairment review confirmed the recoverability of the carrying amounts of both CGUs. The values-in-use was derived from the four-year plan 2015-2018, which was updated to factor in expected results of operations for the current year and the impact of current business trends trend on future results. The cash flows were discounted at a rate of 5.9% (in reduction of 100 b.p. compared to the Annual Report 2014, see note 10 Property, plant and equipment). The terminal value of both CGUs, which comprises future cash flows beyond the plan period, was estimated based on the perpetuity model. It was assumed a perpetual growth rate equal to zero in real terms (unchanged from 2014) to appreciate the expected long-term growth of the business, which was applied to the last cash flow of the plan projections, normalized to reflect the cyclicality observed in the business. Post-tax cash flows and discount rates were adopted as they resulted in an assessment that substantially approximated a pre-tax assessment.

Thessalonikis AE (euro 8 million), CARDÓN IV SA (euro 6 million) and, as decrease, Angola LNG Ltd (euro 18 million) and Unión Fenosa Gas SA (euro 11 million). Losses at the equity-accounted investment in Angola LNG Ltd related to pre-production expenses and operating costs associated with the start-up of a liquefaction plant. Deductions for dividend distribution of euro 43 million primarily related to Unión Fenosa Gas SA (euro 13 million), United Gas Derivatives Co (euro 12 million) and Eteria Parohis Aeriou Thessalonikis AE (euro 8 million). Currency translation differences of euro 188 million were essentially related to translation of entities accounts denominated in U.S. dollar (euro 184 million). A fair value adjustment was recognized for euro 177 million relating the interests held in Galp Energia SGPS SA for euro 129 million and in Snam SpA for euro 48 million. Such amounts were reported through profit in application of the fair value option provided by IAS 39 in order to eliminate an accounting mismatch derived from the measurement at fair value through profit of the options embedded in the convertible bonds. As of June 30, 2015, such valuation led to the recognition of an expense of euro 16 million reflecting, in particular, the appreciation of Snam shares, while the option related to Galp has remained out-of-the-money. The repurchase of a portion of the convertible bond into Galp shares owned by bondholders (about 50% of the nominal value), which was settled June 4, 2015, did not affect the classification of the corresponding portion of shares of Galp. Other investments of euro 2,180 million included the investments valued at fair value in Snam SpA and Galp Energia SGPS SA (euro 1,881 million). At June 30, 2015, Eni holds 288,683,602 shares of Snams outstanding share capital which are underlying the euro 1,250 million convertible bond, issued on January 18, 2013 due on January 18, 2016. At June 30, 2015, the retained interest in Snam SpA was stated at fair value for euro 1,232 million determined at a market price of euro 4.268 per share. At June 30, 2015, Eni holds 61,680,259 shares of Galps outstanding share capital of which 33,124,670 shares are underlying the euro 513 million convertible bond, issued on November 30, 2012 due on November 30, 2015. At June 30, 2015, the retained interest in Galp Energia SGPS SA was stated at fair value for euro 649 million determined at a market price of euro 10.52 per share.

Tax receivables of euro 1,246 million (euro 1,223 million at December 31, 2014) regarded receivables from Italian Fiscal Authorities for euro 973 million (euro 958 million at December 31, 2014) and receivables from non-Italian Fiscal Authorities for euro 273 million (euro 265 million at December 31, 2014). Receivables from divestments amounted to euro 644 million (euro 636 million at December 31, 2014) and included: (i) a receivable of euro 443 million (euro 401 million at December 31, 2014) related to the divestment of a 1.71% interest in the Kashagan project to the local partner KazMunaiGas on the basis of the agreements defined with the international partners of the North Caspian Sea PSA and the Kazakh government, which became effective. The reimbursement of the receivable is provided for in three annual installments commencing from the date in which production target agreed will be reached. The receivable accrues interest income at market rates; (ii) the residual outstanding amount of euro 102 million (euro 123 million at December 31, 2014) recognized following the compensation agreed with the Republic of Venezuela for the expropriated Dación oil field in 2006. The receivable accrues interests at market conditions as the collection has been fractionated in installments. As agreed by the parties, the reimbursement can be made also in kind through equivalent assignment of volumes of crude oil. In the first half of 2015, reimbursements amounted to euro 33 million (US$ 36 million). Negotiations are ongoing to define the final reimbursement by the year-end of the outstanding receivable. Derivative fair values are calculated based on market quotations provided by primary info-provider or, alternatively, appropriate valuation techniques generally adopted in the marketplace. Fair values of non-hedging derivatives of euro 156 million (euro 196 million at December 31, 2014) consisted of derivatives that did not meet the formal criteria to be designated as hedges under IFRS because they were entered into in order to manage net exposures to foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. Therefore, such derivatives did not relate to specific trade or financing transactions. Fair values of cash flow hedge derivatives of euro 3 million as of December 31, 2014 related to the Gas & Power segment. These derivatives were designated to hedge exchange rate and commodity risk exposures as described in note 9 Other current assets. Fair value related to the contracts expiring beyond June 30, 2016 is disclosed in note 23 Other non-current liabilities; fair value related to the contracts expiring by June 30, 2016 is disclosed in note 9 Other current assets and in note 19 Other current liabilities. The effects of fair value evaluation of cash flow hedges are disclosed in note 25 Shareholders equity and note 29 Operating expenses. Information on hedged risks and hedging policies is disclosed in note 27 Guarantees, commitments and risks - Risk factors. Other non-current assets amounted to euro 455 million (euro 565 million at December 31, 2014), of which euro 315 million (euro 395 million at December 31, 2014) were deferred costs relating to the obligation to pay in advance the contractual price of the volumes of gas which the Company failed to collect up to the minimum contractual take in previous reporting periods in order to fulfill the take-or-pay clause provided by the relevant long-term supply contracts. In accordance with those arrangements, the Company is contractually required to collect minimum annual quantities of gas, or in case of failure, is contractually obliged to pay the whole price or a fraction of it for the uncollected volumes up to the minimum annual quantity. The Company is entitled to off-

take the prepaid volumes in future years alongside contract execution, up to contract expiration or in a shorter term as the case may be. Those deferred costs, which are equivalent to a receivable in-kind, are stated at the purchase cost or the net realizable value, whichever is lower. Prior-years impairment losses are reversed up to the purchase cost, whenever market conditions indicate that impairment no longer exits or may have decreased. In the first half of 2015, based on this accounting principle was recorded an impairment loss of euro 16 million. A portion of these deferred costs were reclassified as current assets, as the Company plans to lift the prepaid quantities within June 30, 2016 (euro 62 million). The residual deferred costs were classified as non-current assets, as the Company plans to lift the prepaid quantities beyond the term of 12 months. Despite the weak market conditions in the European gas sector due to declining demand and strong competitive pressures fuelled by oversupplies, management plans to recover those prepaid volumes within the plan horizon by leveraging on an improved competitiveness of the Company in the gas market, the renegotiations whereby the Company achieved a reduction in annual minimum quantities and other actions of commercial optimizations as a result of the Companys simultaneous presence in different markets and the availability of assets (logistics capacity, transportation rights). Receivables with related parties are described in note 35 Transactions with related parties.

The increase in short-term debt of euro 2,383 million includes net assumptions for euro 1,925 million and currency translation differences for euro 158 million. Commercial papers of euro 4,022 million (euro 1,926 million at December 31, 2014) were issued by the Groups financial subsidiaries Eni Finance USA Inc (euro 2,027 million) and Eni Finance International SA (euro 1,995 million). At June 30, 2015, Eni had undrawn committed and uncommitted borrowing facilities amounting to euro 40 million and euro 12,552 million, respectively (euro 41 million and euro 12,657 million at December 31, 2014). Those facilities bore interest rates reflecting prevailing conditions on the marketplace. As of June 30, 2015, Eni did not report any default on covenants or other contractual provisions in relation to borrowing facilities with the exception of a financing agreement entered by the Engineering & Construction segment amounting to euro 250 million signed in 2014 and classified among the long-term financial liabilities as of December 31, 2014. Such agreement required Saipem to maintain specific consolidated financial statements ratios. The financing agreement was reclassified among current financial liabilities as the result of the negative value of EBITDA as of June 30, 2015, which resulted in failure to comply with a contractually agreed financial ratio, which breach would allow the lender to claim anticipated repayment of the financing. Because of the short-term maturity and conditions of remuneration of short-term debts, the fair value approximated the carrying amount. Payables due to related parties are described in note 35 Transactions with related parties.

The decrease in trade payables for euro 762 million primarily related to the Gas & Power segment (euro 1,087 million), partially offset by the increase in the Exploration & Production segment (euro 175 million). Down payments and advances 1 for euro 2,387 million (euro 2,278 million at December 31, 2014) related to contract work in progress in the Engineering & Construction segment for euro 1,380 million and euro 594 million, respectively (euro 1,314 million and euro 620 million at December 31, 2014, respectively).
(1) Down payments received for long-term contracts in progress correspond to the amounts invoiced to customers in excess of the work accrued at the end of the reporting period based on the percentage of completion. Advances on long-term contracts in progress include advanced payments made by customers and contractually agreed; these advanced payments are used during the contract execution in connection with the invoicing of the works performed.

Information on hedged risks and hedging policies is disclosed in note 27 Guarantees, commitments and risks - Risk factors. Fair values of other derivatives of euro 2,220 million (euro 3,601 million at December 31, 2014) consisted of: (i) euro 2,145 million (euro 3,600 million at December 31, 2014) of derivatives that lacked the formal criteria to be designated as hedges under IFRS because they were entered into in order to manage net exposures to movements in foreign currencies, interest rates or commodity prices and commodity derivatives entered for trading purposes and proprietary trading; (ii) euro 75 million related to the call option embedded in the bonds convertible into Snam SpA ordinary shares. The value of the call option embedded related to Galp Energia SGPS SA is null. Further information is disclosed in note 20 Long-term debt and current portion of long-term debt; and (iii) euro 1 million as of December 31, 2014 related to fair value hedge derivatives.

Long-term debt and the short-term portion of long-term debt of euro 22,361 million (euro 23,175 million at December 31, 2014) decreased by euro 814 million. The decrease comprised repayments made for euro 2,766 million net of new issuance for euro 2,004 million and currency translation differences relating foreign subsidiaries and debt denominated in foreign currency recorded by euro-reporting subsidiaries for euro 218 million. Debt due to other financial institutions of euro 191 million (euro 216 million at December 31, 2014) included euro 27 million of finance lease transactions (euro 28 million at December 31, 2014). Eni entered into long-term borrowing facilities with the European Investment Bank. These borrowing facilities are subject to the maintenance of certain financial ratios based on Enis Consolidated Financial Statements or a minimum level of credit rating. According to the agreements, should the Company lose the minimum credit rating, new guarantees would be required to be agreed upon with the European Investment Bank. In addition, Eni entered into long-term and medium-term facilities with Citibank Europe Plc providing for conditions similar to those applied by the European Investment Bank. At June 30, 2015, debts subjected to restrictive covenants amounted to euro 2,233 million (euro 2,314 million and December 31, 2014).

27 Guarantees, commitments and risks
Guarantees The amount of guarantees remained unchanged from the Annual Report 2014.
Commitments and risks The amount of commitments and risks remained unchanged from the Annual Report 2014 with the exception of commitments entered by the Exploration & Production for leasing contracts (chartering, operation and maintenance) of FPSO vessels to be used for development projects in Angola and Ghana. Total commitments amounted to approximately euro 4.3 billion ($4.8 billion) and have a duration ranging between 12 and 17 years.
Risk factors
Financial risks Financial risks are managed in respect of guidelines issued by the Board of Directors of Eni SpA in its role of directing and setting of the risk limits, targeting to align and centrally coordinate Group companies policies on financial risks ("Guidelines on financial risks management and control"). The "Guidelines" define for each financial risk the key components of the management and control process, such as the aim of the risk management, the valuation methodology, the structure of limits, the relation model and the hedging and mitigation instruments.
Market risk Market risk is the possibility that changes in currency exchange rates, interest rates or commodity prices will adversely affect the value of the Groups financial assets, liabilities or expected future cash flows. The Company actively manages market risk in accordance with a set of policies and guidelines that provide a centralized model of handling finance, treasury and risk management operations based on the Companys departments of operational finance: the parent companys (Eni SpA) finance department, Eni Finance International SA, Eni Finance USA Inc and Banque Eni SA, which is subject to certain bank regulatory restrictions preventing the Groups exposure to concentrations of credit risk, and Eni Trading & Shipping, that is in charge to execute certain activities relating to commodity derivatives. In particular, Enis finance department and Eni Finance International SA manage subsidiaries financing requirements in and outside Italy, respectively, covering funding requirements and using available surpluses. All transactions concerning currencies and derivative contracts on interest rates and currencies different from commodities are managed by the parent company. The commodity risk associated with commercial exposures of each business unit (Enis Divisions or subsidiaries) is pooled and managed by the Midstream Department which manages the market risk component in a view of portfolio, while Eni Trading & Shipping SpA executes the negotiation of commodity derivatives over the market. Eni SpA and Eni Trading & Shipping SpA (also through its subsidiary Eni Trading & Shipping Inc) perform trading activities in financial derivatives on external trading venues, such as European and non-European regulated markets, Multilateral Trading Facility (MTF), Organized Trading Facility (OTF), or similar and brokerage platforms (i.e. SEF), and over-the-counter on a bilateral basis with external counterparties. Other legal entities belonging to Eni that require financial derivatives enter into these operations through Eni Trading & Shipping and Eni SpA on the basis of the relevant asset class expertise. Eni uses derivative financial instruments (derivatives) in order to minimize exposure to market risks related to fluctuations in exchange rates relating to those transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency (the euro) and interest rates, as well as to optimize exposure to commodity prices fluctuations taking into account the currency in which commodities are quoted. Eni monitors every activity in derivatives classified as risk-reducing (in particular, back to back activities, flow hedging activities, asset-backed hedging activities and portfolio management activities) directly or indirectly related to covered industrial assets, so as to effectively optimize the risk profile to which Eni is exposed or could be exposed. If the result of the monitoring shows those derivatives should not be considered as risk-reducing, these

derivatives are reclassified in proprietary trading. As the proprietary trading is considered separately from the other activities in specific portfolios of Eni Trading & Shipping, its exposure is subject to specific controls, both in terms of Value at Risk (VaR) and stop loss and in terms of nominal gross value. For Eni, the gross nominal value of proprietary trading activities is compared with the limits set by the relevant international standards. The framework defined by Enis policies and guidelines provides that the valuation and control of market risk is performed on the basis of maximum tolerable levels of risk exposure defined in terms of: (i) limits of stop loss, which expresses the maximum tolerable amount of losses associated with a certain portfolio of assets over a pre-defined time horizon; (ii) limits of revision strategy, which consist in the triggering of a revision process of the strategy in the event of exceeding the level of profit and loss given; and (iii) VaR which measures the maximum potential loss of the portfolio, given a certain confidence level and holding period, assuming adverse changes in market variables and taking into account of the correlation among the different positions held in the portfolio. Enis finance department defines the maximum tolerable levels of risk exposure to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates in terms of Value at Risk, pooling Group companies risk positions maximizing, when possible, the benefits of the netting activity. Enis calculation and valuation techniques for interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate risks are in accordance with banking standards, as established by the Basel Committee for bank activities surveillance. Tolerable levels of risk are based on a conservative approach, considering the industrial nature of the Company. Enis guidelines prescribe that Eni Group companies minimize such kinds of market risks by transferring risk exposure to the parent company Finance Department. Enis guidelines define rules to manage the commodity risk aiming at optimizing core activities and pursuing preset targets of stabilizing industrial and commercial margins. The maximum tolerable level of risk exposure is defined in terms of Value at Risk, limits of revision strategy, stop loss and volumes in connection with exposure deriving from commercial activities as well as exposure deriving from proprietary trading, exclusively managed by Eni Trading & Shipping. Internal mandates to manage the commodity risk provide for a mechanism of allocation of the Group maximum tolerable risk level to each business unit. In this framework, Eni Trading & Shipping, in addition to managing risk exposure associated with its own commercial activity and proprietary trading, pools the requests for negotiating commodity derivatives and executes them on the marketplace. According to the targets of financial structure included in the financial plan approved by the Board of Directors, Eni has decided to retain a cash reserve to face any extraordinary requirement. Such reserve is managed by Enis finance department with the aim of optimizing the efficiency and ensuring maximum protection of the capital and its immediate liquidity within the limits assigned. The management of strategic cash is part of the asset management pursued through transactions on own risk in view of optimizing financial returns, while respecting authorized risk levels, safeguarding the Companys assets and retaining quick access to liquidity.
The four different market risks, whose management and control have been summarized above, are described below.
Market risk - Exchange rate Exchange rate risk derives from the fact that Enis operations are conducted in currencies other than the euro (mainly the U.S. dollar). Revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies may be significantly affected by exchange rates fluctuations due to conversion differences on single transactions arising from the time lag existing between execution and definition of relevant contractual terms (economic risk) and conversion of foreign currency-denominated trade and financing payables and receivables (transactional risk). Exchange rate fluctuations affect the Groups reported results and net equity as financial statements of subsidiaries denominated in currencies other than the euro are translated from their functional currency into euro. Generally, an appreciation of the U.S. dollar versus the euro has a positive impact on Enis results of operations, and vice versa. Enis foreign exchange risk management policy is to minimize transactional exposures arising from foreign currency movements and to optimize exposures arising from commodity risk. Eni does not undertake any hedging activity for risks deriving from the translation of foreign currency denominated profits or assets and liabilities of subsidiaries which prepare financial statements in a currency other than the euro, except for single transactions to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Effective management of exchange rate risk is performed within Enis central finance department which pools Group

companies positions, hedging the Group net exposure through the use of certain derivatives, such as currency swaps, forwards and options. Such derivatives are evaluated at fair value on the basis of market prices provided by specialized info-providers. Changes in fair value of those derivatives are normally recognized through profit and loss as they do not meet the formal criteria to be recognized as hedges. The VaR techniques are based on variance/covariance simulation models and are used to monitor the risk exposure arising from possible future changes in market values over a 24-hour period within a 99% confidence level and a 20-day holding period.
Market risk - Interest rate Changes in interest rates affect the market value of financial assets and liabilities of the Company and the level of finance charges. Enis interest rate risk management policy is to minimize risk with the aim to achieve financial structure objectives defined and approved in the managements finance plans. Borrowing requirements of Group companies are pooled by the Groups central finance department in order to manage net positions and the funding of portfolio developments consistently with managements plans while maintaining a level of risk exposure within prescribed limits. Eni enters into interest rate derivative transactions, in particular interest rate swaps, to effectively manage the balance between fixed and floating rate debt. Such derivatives are evaluated at fair value on the basis of market prices provided from specialized sources. Changes in fair value of those derivatives are normally recognized through the profit and loss account as they do not meet the formal criteria to be accounted for under the hedge accounting method. Value at Risk deriving from interest rate exposure is measured daily on the basis of a variance/covariance model, with a 99% confidence level and a 20-day holding period.
Market risk - Commodity Enis results of operations are affected by changes in the prices of commodities. A decrease in oil and gas prices generally has a negative impact on Enis results of operations and vice versa, and may jeopardize the achievement of the financial targets preset in the Companys four-year plans and budget. The commodity price risk arises in connection with the following exposures: (i) strategic exposure: exposures directly identified by the Board of Directors as a result of strategic investment decisions or outside the planning horizon of risk. These exposures include those associated with the program for the production of proved and unproved oil and gas reserves, long-term gas supply contracts for the portion not balanced by ongoing or highly probable sale contracts, refining margins identified by the Board of Directors as of strategic nature (the remaining volumes can be allocated to the active management of the margin or to asset backed hedging activities) and minimum compulsory stocks; (ii) commercial exposure: includes the exposures related to the components underlying the contractual arrangements of industrial and commercial activities and, if related to take-or-pay commitments, to the components related to the time horizon of the four-year plan and budget and the relevant activities of risk management. Commercial exposures are characterized by a systematic risk management activity conducted on the basis of risk/return assumptions by implementing one or more strategies and subjected to specific risk limits (VaR, stop loss). In particular, the commercial exposures include exposures subjected to asset-backed hedging activities, arising from the flexibility/optionality of assets; and (iii) proprietary trading exposure: includes operations independently conducted for profit purposes in the short term, and normally not finalized to the delivery, both within the commodity and financial markets, with the aim to obtain a profit upon the occurrence of a favorable result in the market, in accordance with specific limits of authorized risk (VaR, Stop loss). In the proprietary trading exposures are included the origination activities, if not connected to contractual or physical assets. Strategic risk is not subject to systematic activity of management/coverage that is eventually carried out only in case of specific market or business conditions. Because of the extraordinary nature, hedging activities related to strategic risks are delegated to the top management. Strategic risk is subject to measuring and monitoring but is not subject to specific risk limits. If previously authorized by the Board of Directors, exposures related to strategic risk can be used in combination with other commercial exposures in order to exploit opportunities for natural compensation between the risks (natural hedge) and consequently reduce the use of derivatives (by activating logics of internal market). Eni manages exposure to commodity price risk arising in normal trading and commercial activities in view of achieving stable economic results. The commodity risk and the exposure to commodity prices fluctuations embedded in commodities quoted in

currencies other than the euro at each business line (Enis Divisions or subsidiaries) is pooled and managed by the Portfolio Management unit for commodities, and by Enis Finance Department for exchange rate requirements. The Portfolio Management unit manages business lines risk exposures to commodities, pooling and optimizing Group companies exposures and hedging net exposures on the trading venues through the trading unit of Eni Trading & Shipping. In order to manage commodity price risk, Eni uses derivatives traded on the organized markets MTF, OTF and derivatives traded over the counter (swaps, forward, contracts for differences and options on commodities) with the underlying commodities being crude oil, refined products, electricity or emission certificates. Such derivatives are evaluated at fair value on the basis of market prices provided from specialized sources or, absent market prices, on the basis of estimates provided by brokers or suitable valuation techniques. Value at Risk deriving from commodity exposure is measured daily on the basis of a historical simulation technique, with a 95% confidence level and a one-day holding period.
Market risk - Strategic liquidity Market risk deriving from liquidity management is identified as the possibility that changes in prices of financial instruments (bonds, money market instruments and mutual funds) would impact the value of these instruments when evaluated at fair value. In order to manage the investment activity of the strategic liquidity, Eni defined a specific investment policy with aims and constraints in terms of financial activities and operational boundaries, as well as Governance guidelines regulating management and control systems. The setting up and maintenance of the reserve of strategic liquidity is mainly aimed to: (i) guarantee of financial flexibility. Liquidity should allow Eni Group to fund any extraordinary need (such as difficulty in access to credit, exogenous shock, macroeconomic environment, as well as merger and acquisitions); and (ii) ensure a full coverage of short-term debts and a coverage of medium and long-term financial debts due within a time horizon of 24 months, even in case of restrictions to credit. Strategic liquidity management is regulated in terms of Value at Risk (measured on the basis of a parametrical methodology with a one-day holding period and a 99% confidence level), stop loss and other operating limits in terms of concentration, duration, ratings, liquidity and instruments to invest on. Financial leverage or short selling is not allowed. Activities in terms of strategic liquidity management started in the second half of the year 2013 and throughout the course of the years 2014 and 2015, the investment portfolio has maintained an average credit rating of A/A-, in line with the rating of Eni. The following table shows amounts in terms of Value at Risk, recorded in the first half of 2015 (compared with 2014) relating to interest rate and exchange rate risks in the first section and commodity risk. Regarding the management of strategic liquidity, the sensitivity to change of interest rates is expressed by the values of "Dollar Value per Basis Point" (DVBP).

Credit risk Credit risk is the potential exposure of the Group to losses in case counterparties fail to perform or pay amounts due. The Group manages differently credit risk depending on whether credit risk arises from exposure to financial counterparties or to customers relating to outstanding receivables. Individual business units and Enis corporate financial and accounting units are responsible for managing credit risk arising in the normal course of the business. The Group has established formal credit systems and processes to ensure that before trading with a new counterpart can start, its creditworthiness is assessed. Also credit litigation and receivable collection activities are assessed. Enis corporate units define directions and methods for quantifying and controlling customers reliability. With regard to risk arising from financial counterparties deriving from current and strategic use of liquidity, Eni has established guidelines prior to entering into cash management and derivative contracts to assess the counterpartys financial soundness and rating in view of optimizing the risk profile of financial activities while pursuing operational targets. Maximum limits of risk exposure are set in terms of maximum amounts of credit exposures for categories of counterparties as defined by the Companys Board of Directors taking into account the credit ratings provided by primary credit rating agencies on the marketplace. Credit risk arising from financial counterparties is managed by the Group operating Finance Department, including Enis subsidiary Eni Trading & Shipping which specifically engages in commodity derivatives transactions and by Group companies and Divisions, only in the case of physical transactions with financial counterparties consistently with the Group centralized finance model. Eligible financial counterparties are closely monitored to check exposures against limits assigned to each counterparty on a daily basis.
Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that suitable sources of funding for the Group may not be available, or the Group is unable to sell its assets on the marketplace in order to meet short-term finance requirements and to settle obligations. Such a situation would negatively impact Group results as it would result in the Company incurring higher borrowing expenses to meet its obligations or under the worst of conditions the inability of the Company to continue as a going concern. As part of its financial planning process, Eni manages the liquidity risk by targeting such a capital structure as to allow the Company to maintain a level of liquidity adequate to the Groups needs, optimizing the opportunity cost of maintaining liquidity reserves also achieving an efficient balance in terms of maturity and composition of finance debt (in terms of: (i) maximum ratio between net

financial debt and net equity (leverage); (ii) minimum incidence of medium and long-term debts over the total amount of financial debts; (iii) minimum amount of fixed-rate debts over the total amount of medium and long-term debts; and (iv) minimum level of liquidity reserve). For this purpose, Eni holds a significant amount of liquidity reserve (financial assets plus committed credit lines), which aims to: (a) deal with identified risk factors that could significantly affect the cash flow expected in the Financial Plan (i.e. changes in the scenario and/or production volumes, delays in disposals, limitations in profitable acquisitions); (b) ensure a full coverage of short-term debt and the coverage of medium and long-term debts with a maturity of 24 months, even in case of restrictions to the credit access; (c) ensuring the availability of an adequate level of financial flexibility to support the Groups development plans; and (d) maintaining/improving the current credit rating. The financial asset reserve is employed in short-term marketable financial instruments, favoring investments with very low risk profile. At present, the Group believes to have access to sufficient funding to meet the current foreseeable borrowing requirements as a consequence of the availability of financial assets and lines of credit and the access to a wide range of funding at competitive costs through the credit system and capital markets. Eni has in place a program for the issuance of Euro Medium Term Notes up to euro 15 billion, of which about euro 14.3 billion were drawn as of June 30, 2015. The Group has credit ratings of A- and A-2, respectively for long and short-term debt, outlook stable, assigned by Standard & Poors and A3 and P-2, respectively for long and short-term debt, outlook stable, assigned by Moodys. Enis credit rating is linked in addition to the Companys industrial fundamentals and trends in the trading environment to the sovereign credit rating of Italy. On the basis of the methodologies used by Standard & Poors and Moodys, a downgrade of Italys credit rating may trigger a potential knock-on effect on the credit rating of Italian issuers such as Eni. The Company, through a constant monitoring of the international economic environment and continuing dialogue with financial investors and rating agencies, believes to be ready to perceive emerging critical issues screened by the financial community and to be able to react quickly to any changes in the financial and the global macroeconomic environment and implement the necessary actions to mitigate such risks, coherently with Company strategies. In the course of the first half 2015, Eni issued a bond amounting to euro 1 billion related to the Euro Medium Term Notes Program. As of June 30, 2015, Eni maintained short-term unused borrowing facilities of euro 12,592 million, of which euro 40 million committed. Long-term committed borrowing facilities amounted to euro 6,469 million, of which euro 668 million were due within 12 months, which were completely undrawn at the balance sheet date. These facilities bore interest rates and fees for unused facilities that reflected prevailing market conditions. The tables below summarize the Group main contractual obligations (undiscounted) for finance debt repayments, including expected payments for interest charges, and trade and other payables maturities outstanding at period end.

Expected payments by period under contractual obligations and commercial commitments The Group has in place a number of contractual obligations arising in the normal course of the business. To meet these commitments, the Group will have to make payments to third parties. The Companys main obligations pertain to take-or-pay clauses contained in the Companys gas supply contracts or shipping arrangements, whereby the Company obligations consist of off-taking minimum quantities of product or service or, in case of failure, paying the corresponding cash amount that entitles the Company the right to collect the product or the service in future years. Future obligations in connection with these contracts were calculated by applying the forecasted prices of energy or services included in the four-year business plan approved by the Companys Board of Directors. The table below summarizes the Group principal contractual obligations as of the balance sheet date, shown on an undiscounted basis.

Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
Legal Proceedings Eni is a party to a number of civil actions and administrative arbitral and other judicial proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Based on information available to date, and taking into account the existing risk provisions, Eni believes that the foregoing will likely not have a material adverse effect on Enis Consolidated Financial Statements. The following is a summary of the most significant proceedings currently pending for which significant developments occurred in the first half of 2015 with respect to the situation reported in the Annual Report 2014, including new and settled proceedings. Unless otherwise indicated below, no provisions have been made for these legal proceedings as Eni believes that negative outcomes are not probable or because the amount of the provision cannot be estimated reliably.
1. Environment
1.1 Criminal proceedings in the matters of environment, health and safety (i) Eni SpA - Gas & Power Division - Industrial site of Praia a Mare. Based on complaints filed by certain offended persons, the Public Prosecutor of Paola started an enquiry about alleged diseases related to tumors which those persons contracted on the workplace. Those persons were employees at an industrial complex owned by a Group subsidiary many years ago. On the basis of the findings of independent appraisal reports, in the course of 2009 the Public Prosecutor resolved that a number of ex-manager of that industrial complex would stand trial. In the preliminary hearing held in November 2010, 189 persons entered the trial as plaintiff; while 107 persons were declared as having been offended by the alleged crime. The plaintiffs have requested that both Eni and Marzotto SpA would bear civil liability. However, compensation for damages suffered by the offended persons has yet to be determined. Upon conclusion of the preliminary hearing, the Public Prosecutor resolved that all defendants would stand trial for culpable manslaughter, culpable injuries, environmental disaster and negligent conduct about safety measures on the workplace. Following a settlement agreement with Eni, Marzotto SpA entered settlement agreements with all plaintiffs, except for the local administrations. On December 19, 2014, the Tribunal issued an acquittal sentence for all defendants, as the indictment was found groundless. The Public Prosecutor has proposed an appeal against the sentence.
1.2 Civil and administrative proceedings in the matters of environment, health and safety (i) Syndial SpA (former EniChem SpA) - Summon for alleged environmental damage caused by DDT pollution in the Lake Maggiore - Prosecuting body: Ministry of the Environment. In May 2003, the Ministry of the Environment summoned Syndial (former EniChem) to obtain a sentence condemning the Eni subsidiary to compensate an alleged environmental damage caused by the activity of the Pieve Vergonte plant in the years 1990 through 1996. With a temporarily executive sentence dated July 3, 2008, the District Court of Turin sentenced the subsidiary Syndial SpA to compensate environmental damages amounting to euro 1,833.5 million, plus legal costs that accrued from the filing of the decision. Syndial and Eni technical legal consultants have considered the decision and the amount of the compensation to be without factual and legal basis and have concluded that a negative outcome of this proceeding is unlikely. Particularly, Eni and its subsidiary deem the amount of the environmental damage to be absolutely groundless as the sentence lacks sufficient elements to support such a material amount of the liability charged to Eni and its subsidiary with respect to the volume of pollutants ascertained by the Italian Environmental Minister. Based on these technical legal advices which is also supported by external accounting consultants, no provisions have been made with respect to the proceeding. In July 2009, Syndial filed an appeal against the above-mentioned sentence, and consequently the proceeding continued before a second degree court. In the hearing of June 15, 2012, before the Second Degree Court of Turin, the Minister of the Environment, formalized trough the Board of State Lawyers its decision to not enforce the sentence until a final verdict on the matter is reached. The Second Degree Court requested Syndial to stand as defendant and then requested a technical appraisal of the matter. This technical appraisal was favorable to Syndial; however such outcome was questioned by the Board of State Lawyers. The Appeal Court of Turin summoned the parties for November 26, 2014 and indicated in the subpoena an interpretation of the environmental damage which seemed to mirror the position of the Enis

subsidiary. On July 8, 2015, the Court of Appeal of Turin requested the consultants appointed by the Court to reperform a technical appraisal of the matter and identify adequate measures for environmental restoration (considering as such also the natural restoration) of the external areas.
2. Other court inquiries and arbitral proceedings
(i) Fos Cavaou. With regard to the Fos Cavaou ("FOS") project for the construction of a regasification terminal, the client Société du Terminal Méthanier de Fos Cavaou ("STMFC", now FOSMAX LNG) in January 2012 commenced arbitration proceedings before the International Chamber of Commerce in Paris against the contractor STS (a French company participated by Saipem SA (50%), Tecnimont SpA (49%) and Sofregaz SA (1%). FOSMAX LNG claimed the payment of euro 264 million for damages, delay penalties and costs incurred for the termination of the works ("mise en régie"). Approximately euro 142 million of the total amount requested was for loss of profit, which is an item that cannot be compensated based on the existing contractual provisions except for cases of willful misconduct or gross negligence. STS has filed its defense brief, including a counterclaim for damages due to the excessive interference of FOSMAX LNG in works execution and as payment for extra works not recognized by the client (reserving the right to quantify the amount of such extra works at a later stage of proceedings). On October 19, 2012, FOSMAX LNG lodged a "Mémoire en demande". Against this, on January 28, 2013, STS lodged its own "Mémoire en défense", in which it filed a counterclaim for euro 338 million. On February 13, 2015, the arbitrators issued a final award, which required FOSMAX LNG to pay STS consortium. Therefore, on April 30, 2015, FOSMAX LNG paid euro 84,349,554.92 corresponding to due amount and interest accrued over the period. Saipems share of the award is 50%. On June 26, 2015, FOSMAX LNG filed an appeal against the decision of the Chamber of Commerce to the Frances Council of State, requiring an annulment based on the fact that arbitrators erroneously applied civil law instead of public law. STS shall be entitled to submit its observations to the Frances Council of State within 60 days after the notification.
(ii) Court of Cassation - Consob Decision No. 18949 of June 18, 2014 - claim for damage. With Resolution No. 18949 of June 18, 2014, the Italian Securities and Exchange Commission (Consob) fined Enis subsidiary Saipem euro 80,000 for the alleged delay in the issue of a profit warning, which was published on January 29, 2013. On July 28, 2014, Saipem filed an appeal against this resolution to the Court of Appeal of Milan, but it was rejected by the Court in its ruling of December 11, 2014. Therefore, Eni filed a recourse against the Court of Appeals decision to the Italian Third-Degree Court. A number of shareholders and former shareholders have threatened to take legal actions against the Company to obtain compensation in relation to the alleged delay in giving information to the market. According to Saipem, those claims are groundless. On April 28, 2015, Saipem was served with a notice of a class action before the Court of Milan. The Company was sued by 64 institutional investors, claiming compensation amounting to euro 174 million, for damage allegedly incurred following the purchase of Saipem shares in the period between February 13, 2012 and June 14, 2013.
(iii) Eni SpA - Reorganization procedure of the airlines companies Volare Group, Volare Airlines and Air Europe - Prosecuting body: Delegated Commissioner. In March 2009, Eni and its subsidiary Sofid (now Eni Adfin) were notified of a bankruptcy claw back as part of a reorganization procedure filed by the airlines companies Volare Group, Volare Airlines and Air Europe which commenced under the provisions of Ministry of Production Activities, on November 30, 2004. The request regarded the override of all the payments made by those entities to Eni and Eni Adfin, as Eni agent for the receivables collection, in the year previous to the insolvency declaration from November 30, 2003 to November 29, 2004, for a total estimated amount of euro 46 million plus interest. Eni and Eni Adfin were admitted as defendants. After the conclusion of the investigation, a court ruled against the claims made by the commissioners of the reorganization procedures. The relevant ruling was filed on March 1, 2012. The commissioners filed a counterclaim against the first degree sentence to the Court of Appeal of Milan which ruled in favor of the plaintiff. Eni made a provision for this legal proceeding.

3. Antitrust, EU Proceedings, Actions of the Authority for Electricity Gas and Water and of other Regulatory Authorities
3.1. Antitrust (i) Investigation by the Italian Antitrust about Enis determination of Italian market share of the Italian gas wholesale market. With Resolution No. 25064 of August 1, 2014, the Italian Antitrust commenced an investigation to verify whether Eni controlled a bigger share of the domestic wholesale gas market than it had declared. Following the Legislative Decree No. 130 of 2010, which envisages a 55% ceiling to the wholesale market share for each Italian gas operator who inputs gas into the Italian backbone network, Eni declared that its market share was equal to 54%, therefore slightly below the established threshold. Eni calculated its market share by excluding certain sales of gas volumes. On the other hand, the Antitrust rejected this calculation method and therefore came to the conclusion that Enis market share was actually 56%. Nonetheless, the Antitrust decided not to impose any fine on the Company as the violation was immaterial. The Antitrust considered the fact that in its declaration Eni explained clearly how its market share was calculated. Besides that, in the opinion of the Ministry of Economic Development, expressed during the investigation, Eni calculated its market share correctly. Eni filed an appeal against the Antitrusts decision before the Regional Administrative Court of Lazio, asking for annulment.
(ii) Eni SpA - Investigation for alleged violations of the Consumer Code in the matter of billing of gas and power consumptions. With a decision notified on July 8, 2015, the Italian Antitrust Authority (AGCM) commenced an investigation to ascertain alleged unfair commercial practices under the Consumer Code in the billing of gas and power consumptions to retail customers. This preliminary investigation originated from certain reports of consumers and consumer organizations received by the AGCM in the period March 2014-June 2015. These complaints regard cases in which Eni allegedly started procedures of formal notice, credit recovery and suspension of supply in relation to: (i) claims for payment of invoices for amounts false, anomalous and/or un-correctly estimated; (ii) credits towards clients for significant amounts accrued in consequence of continued delay in issuing invoices or adjustment payments made after many years with respect to the effective consumption; and (iii) requests for payment of invoices already settled by consumers. The preliminary investigation and the request for information to the Company are aimed at obtaining relevant elements for assessing the existence of these alleged unfair trade practices.
4. Criminal and administrative proceedings in matters of Corporate liability
(i) Algeria. Legal proceedings are pending in Italy and outside of Italy in connection with an allegation of corruption relating to the award of certain contracts to Saipem in Algeria. On February 4, 2011, Eni received from the Public Prosecutor of Milan an information request pursuant to Article 248 of the Italian Code of Criminal Procedure. The request related to allegations of international corruption and pertained to certain activities performed by Saipem Group companies in Algeria (in particular the contract between Saipem and Sonatrach relating to the construction of the GK3 gas pipeline and the contract between Galsi, Saipem and Technip relating to the engineering of the ground section of a gas pipeline). For that reason, the notification was forwarded by Eni to Saipem. The crime of international corruption is among the offenses contemplated by Legislative Decree of June 8, 2001, No. 231, relating to corporate responsibility for crimes committed by employees which provides fines and interdictions to the company and the disgorgement of profit. Saipem promptly began to collect documentation in response to the requests of the Public Prosecutor. The documents were produced on February 16, 2011. Eni also filed documentation relating to the MLE project (in which the Enis Exploration & Production Division participates) even if not required, with respect to which investigations in Algeria are ongoing. On November 22, 2012, the Public Prosecutor of Milan served Saipem a notice stating that it had commenced an investigation for alleged liability of the company for international corruption in accordance to Article 25, second and third paragraph of Legislative Decree No. 231/2001. Furthermore, the Prosecutor requested the production of certain documents relating to certain activities in Algeria. The proceeding was unified with the Iraq-Kazakhstan proceeding, concerning a different line of investigation, as it related to the activities carried out by Eni in Iraq and Kazakhstan. Subsequently Saipem was served a notice

Eni Interim Consolidated Report / Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
of seizure, then a request for documentation and finally a search warrant was issued, in order to acquire further documentation, in particular relating to certain intermediary contracts and sub-contracts entered into by Saipem in connection with its Algerian business. Several former Saipem employees were also involved in the proceeding, including the former CEO of Saipem, who resigned from the office in December of 2012, and the former Chief Operating Officer of the business unit Engineering & Construction of Saipem, who was fired at the beginning of 2013. On February 7, 2013, on mandate from the Public Prosecutor of Milan, the Italian financial police visited Enis headquarters in Rome and San Donato Milanese and executed searches and seized documents relating to Saipems activity in Algeria. On the same occasion, Eni was served a notice that an investigation had commenced in accordance with Article 25, third and fourth paragraph of Legislative Decree No. 231/2001 with respect to Eni, Enis former CEO, Enis former CFO and another senior manager. Enis former CFO had previously served as Saipems CFO including during the period in which alleged corruption took place and before being appointed as CFO of Eni on August 1, 2008. Saipem, which is fully cooperating with the Judicial Authority since the beginning of the investigation, has also promptly undertaken management and administrative measures. Saipem has commenced an internal investigation in relation to the contracts in question with the support of external advisors; such internal investigation is conducted in agreement with the statutory bodies deputed to the companys control. In addition, in the course of 2013, Saipem performed a review to verify the correct functioning of internal procedures and controls relating to anti-corruption and prevention of illicit activities, with the assistance of external consultants. Saipem provided the Judicial Authority and Eni with the findings of its internal review; Eni was informed in view of exercising its control and coordination powers with respect to the subsidiary. Moreover, Saipems Board resolved to initiate legal action to protect the interests of the company against certain former employees and suppliers, reserving any further action if additional factors emerge. Eni, albeit denying any involvement in the matter, has commenced an internal investigation with the assistance of external consultants, in addition to the review activities performed by its audit and internal control departments and a dedicated team to the Algerian matters. To date, the external consultants have reached the following results: (i) the review of the documents seized by the Milan prosecutors and the examination of internal records held by Enis global Procurement Department have not found any evidence that Eni entered into intermediary or any other contractual arrangements with the third parties involved in the prosecutors investigation; the brokerage contracts, that have identified, were signed by Saipem or its subsidiaries or predecessor companies; and (ii) the internal review made on a voluntary basis of the MLE project, the only project that Eni understands to be under the prosecutors investigation where the client is an Eni Group company. That review has not found evidence that any Eni employee engaged in wrongdoing in connection with the award to Saipem of two main contracts to execute the project (EPC and Drilling). Furthermore, with the assistance of external consultants, Eni has been reviewing the extent of its operating control over Saipem with regard to both legal and accounting and administrative issues. The findings of the review performed have confirmed the autonomy of Saipem from the parent company. The findings of Enis internal review have been provided to the Judicial Authority in order to reaffirm Enis willingness to fully cooperate. On October 24, 2014, Eni SpA and Saipem SpA received a request of probationary evidence by the Prosecutor of Milan relating to for the examination of two defendants: the former Chief Operating Officer of the Business Unit Engineering & Construction of Saipem and the former President and General Manager of Saipem Contracting Algérie. On January 14, 2015, the Public Prosecutor of Milan notified the conclusion of preliminary investigations towards Eni, Saipem and eight persons (including, the former CEO and CFO of Eni and the Chief Upstream Officer of Eni who was responsible for Eni Exploration & Production activities in North Africa at the time of the events under investigation). The Public Prosecutor of Milan has issued a notice for alleged international corruption against all defendants (including Eni and Saipem on the base of the provisions of Legislative Decree No. 231/2001) in connection with the entry into intermediary contracts by Saipem in Algeria. Furthermore, some of the defendants (including the former CEO and CFO of Eni and the Chief Upstream Officer of Eni) were accused of tax offense for fraudulent misrepresentation in relation to the accounting treatment of these contracts for the fiscal years 2009 and 2010. Having acquired the actions of the court filed in relation to the request of probationary evidence, the minutes of the hearing and the documents filed for the conclusion of the preliminary investigation, Eni requested its consultants to perform additional analysis and investigation. As a result, Enis consultants reaffirmed their conclusions previously reported to the Company. On February 5, 2015, the Investigative Tax Police of Milan started a tax audit against Saipem in relation to: (i) the tax implications arising from the pending criminal proceeding with respect to the fiscal years 2008-2010; and (ii) economic transactions with

non-EU companies operating in Countries considered to be tax heavens for fiscal year 2010. At the end of these verifications, on April 14, 2015, Saipem was notified of a formal notice of assessment which claimed undue deductions of certain expenses for a total amount of about euro 181 million. Saipem submitted its defensive arguments and a request for a dismissal to the Tax Agency Regional Department of Lombardy Large Taxpayer Office. On July 9, 2015, the Tax Agency notified to Saipem four assessment notices relating to income taxes, interests and penalties in the amount of about euro 155 million. Saipem will appeal to the Provincial Tax Commission. On February 12, 2015, the Public Prosecutors Office filed the request for trial to the Court of Milan, for all the defendants of the crimes listed above. The preliminary hearings are ongoing. Eni has contacted the U.S. Authorities the DoJ and the U.S. SEC in order to voluntary inform them about this matter, considering the developments in the Italian prosecutors investigations already at the end of 2012. Following this informal contact between Eni and the U.S. Authorities, both the U.S. SEC and the DoJ have started their own investigations regarding this matter. Eni has furnished various information and documents, including the findings of its internal reviews, in response to formal and informal requests. In 2010, the investigations have started in Algeria in relation to the assignment of the contract GK3 from Sonatrach (the so-called "Sonatrach 1" investigation) where the bank accounts of a Saipems subsidiary, Saipem Contracting Algérie SpA, have been blocked by the Algerian Authorities with a balance equivalent to about euro 90 million at current exchange rates. Those bank accounts related to two projects in the final phase, in Algeria. In 2012, a notice of investigation was served to Saipem Contracting Algérie SpA. The company is alleged to have taken advantage of the Authority or influence of representatives of a government owned industrial and trading company in order to inflate prices in relation to a contract (GK3) awarded by said company. In January 2013, the Judicial Authority in Algeria ordered Saipems Algerian subsidiary to stand trial and reaffirmed the blockage of the above-mentioned bank accounts. Saipem Contracting Algérie SpA has lodged an appeal against this decision before the Supreme Court which reaffirmed the blockage of the bank accounts. The proceeding is still pending, it might be concluded in the course of 2015. Furthermore, also the parent company Saipem is being investigated by the Judicial Authority in Algeria for alleged corrupt payments.
(ii) Block OPL 245, Nigeria. The criminal proceeding regarding alleged international corruption in the acquisition of Block OPL 245 in Nigeria is still pending. On July 2, 2014, the Italian Public Prosecutor of Milan served Eni with a notice of investigation relating to potential liability on the part of Eni arising from alleged international corruption, pursuant to Italian Legislative Decree No. 231/2001 whereby companies are liable for the crimes committed by their employees when performing their tasks. According to the notice, the Prosecutor has commenced investigations involving a third party external to the Group and other unidentified persons. As part of the proceeding, Eni was also subpoenaed for documents and other evidence. According to the subpoena, the proceeding was commenced following a claim filed by ReCommon NGO relating to alleged corruptive practices which according to the Prosecutor would have allegedly involved the Resolution Agreement made on April 29, 2011 relating to the Oil Prospecting license of the offshore oilfield that was discovered in Block 245 in Nigeria. Eni is fully cooperating with the Prosecutor and has promptly filed the requested documentation. Furthermore, Eni has reported the matter to the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. SEC. Finally, in July 2014 the Enis Board of Statutory Auditors jointly with the Eni Watch Structure resolved to engage outside consultants, experts in anti-corruption, to conduct a forensic, independent review of the matter, upon informing the Judicial Authorities. On September 10, 2014, the Public Prosecutor of Milan notified Eni of a restraining order issued by a British judge who ruled the seizure of a bank account domiciled at a British bank following a request from the Italian Public Prosecutor. The order was also communicated to certain individuals, including Enis CEO and the Chief Development, Operations and Technological Officer, as well as Enis former CEO. From the available documents, it was deduced that such Enis officers and former officers are under investigation by the Italian Public Prosecutor. During a hearing before a Court of London on September 15, 2014, Eni and its current executive officers gave evidence of their non-involvement in the matter regarding the seized bank account. Following the hearing, the Court reaffirmed the seizure. An audit conducted by an independent U.S. law firm on behalf of Enis Board of Statutory Auditors and Watch Structure found no evidence of misconduct in relation to Eni and Shells 2011 transaction with the Nigerian Government for the acquisition of the OPL 245 license. The final report of U.S. law firm has been made available to the Judicial Authority, reaffirming Enis full cooperation. The closing date of the investigations has been extended by six months.

(iii) Block Marine XII, Congo. On July 9, 2015, Eni received from the U.S. Department of Justice a subpoena ordering the Company to produce documents in view of the hearing of an Eni employee, relating to the assets "Marine XII" in Congo and relationships with certain persons and companies. According to preliminary informal contacts between Enis U.S. lawyers and the Authority, this hearing is part of a broader investigation, which is currently being carried out with regard to third parties. Within such investigation Eni is considered a witness and potentially a damaged party. The documents required by the Authority are currently being collected for the subsequent producing.
(iv) Eni SpA Refining & Marketing Division Criminal proceedings on fuel excise tax (Criminal proceeding N. 6159/10 RGNR the Italian Public Prosecutor in Frosinone and criminal proceeding No. 7320/14 RGNR the Italian Public Prosecutor in Rome). Two criminal proceedings are currently pending, relating to alleged evasion of excise taxes in the context of the retail sales at the fuel market. In particular, the claim states that the quantity of oil products marketed by Eni was larger than the quantity subjected to the excise tax. The first proceeding, opened by the Public Prosecutors Office of Frosinone against a third company (Turrizziani Petroli) purchaser of Enis fuel, is still pending in the phase of the preliminary investigation. This investigation was subsequently extended to Eni. The Company has cooperated fully with the proceeding and provided all data and information concerning the performance of the excise tax obligations for the quantities of fuel coming from the storage sites of Gaeta, Naples and Livorno. Eni ensured the best possible collaboration, handing in all the required documentation with promptness. Such proceeding referred to quantities of oil products sold by Eni, allegedly larger than the quantity subjected to the excise tax. After the ending of the investigation, the Fiscal Police from Frosinone, along with the local Customs Agency, in November 2013, issued a claim related to the evasion of the payment of excise taxes in the 2007-2012 periods for euro 1.55 million. In May 2014, the Customs Agency of Rome issued a payment notice relating to the abovementioned claim which was filed by the Fiscal Police and Customs Agency of Frosinone. The Company immediately appealed to the Tributary Commission. The second proceeding, opened by the Public Prosecutors Office of Rome, regarded alleged evasion of excise tax payment on the surplus of the unloading products, as quantity of such products was larger than the quantity reported in the supporting fiscal documents. This proceeding represents a development of the first proceeding mentioned above, and substantially concerns similar facts, with however some differences with regard to both the nature of the alleged crimes and the responsibility subjected to verification. In fact, the Public Prosecutors Office of Rome has alleged the existence of a criminal conspiracy aimed at the habitual subtraction of oil products at all of the 22 storage sites which are operated by Eni over the national territory. Eni is cooperating with prosecutor in order to defend the correctness of its operation. Moreover, at the Companys request, the national association of refiners asked the Italian Customs Agency to provide its advice on the correctness of the operating models adopted by Eni. On September 30, 2014, a search was conducted at the office of the former chief operating officer of Enis Refining & Marketing Division as ordered by the Romes Public Prosecutor. The motivations of the search are the same as the abovementioned proceeding as the ongoing investigations also relates to a period of time when he was in charge of that Enis Division. On March 5, 2015, the Prosecutor of Rome ordered a search at all the storage sites of Enis network in Italy as part of the same proceeding. The search was intended to verify the existence of fraudulent practices aimed at tampering with measuring systems functional to the tax compliance of excise duties in relation to fuel handling at the storage sites. The three criminal proceedings were united together at Public Prosecutors Office of Rome, which is still conducting preliminary investigations. Ultimately, the Customs Agency, in reply to the national association of refiners, published a dedicated Circular which provides the rules the operators in the sector should follow to determine the quantity of oil products subjected to the excise tax, so as to give clarification to regional customs agencies, the Revenue Agency and the Finance Police. According to this Circular, Eni and other oil companies followed the correct procedures in order to determine the quantity subjected to the excise tax.

5. Tax Proceedings
(i) Enis subsidiary in Indonesia. A tax proceeding is pending against Enis subsidiary Lasmo Sanga Sanga Ltd as the Tax Administration of Indonesia has questioned the application of a tax rate of 10% on the profit earned by the local branch. Enis subsidiary, which is resident in the United Kingdom for tax purposes, believes that the 10% tax rate is warranted by the current treaty for the avoidance of double taxation. On the contrary, the Tax Administration of Indonesia has claimed the application of the local tax rate of 20%. The greater taxes due in accordance to the latter rate have been disbursed amounting to $148 million including interest expense for the fiscal years 2002-2010. The provision accrued by Eni with respect of this proceeding as of June 30, 2015 has been reviewed compared to December 2014 because management recognized an increased probability of an unfavorable outcome.
6. Settled Proceedings
(i) Kashagan. On March 7, 2014, the Atyrau Region Environmental Department ("ARED") launched a series of civil claims against the Consortium developing the Kashagan field. These proceedings allege to certain emissions associated with gas flaring occurring during commissioning have resulted in infringements of environmental laws and environmental damages. The aggregate value of the civil claims is approximately $730 million (KZT 134 billion), of which Enis share would be approximately $123 million (KZT 22.5 billion). The Kashagan projects consortium disputes these allegations. In 2014, the Consortium paid part of the claim amounting to $55 million (KZT 8.5 billion), $9 million being Enis share (KZT 1.4 billion) and commenced a legal dispute before a Kazakh court. The settlement agreement defined between the Consortium and the Kazakh Republic in December 2014 reduced the amount of the claim to $38 million (KZT 7 billion), approximately $6.4 million (KZT 1.2 billion) being Enis share, therefore less than the amount already paid in 2014. The difference will be computed by the Kazakh Republic as an advance of production bonus.

| 9,952 | 10,279 |
Revenues from sales and services of euro 45,954 million (euro 55,736 million in the first half 2014) related to revenues recognized in connection with contract works in the Engineering & Construction segment for euro 4,654 million (euro 4,669 million in the first half 2014) and included the estimation of revenue which accrued at the closing date with respect to variations and claims. The cumulative amount of variations and claims, including also those occurred in previous years, based on project progress totaled euro 552 million at June 30, 2015, down by euro 249 million compared to December 31, 2014. The reduction is due to write-downs at certain projects because of a stiffening stance on part of clients in negotiating the settlement of variations and claims occurred during project execution, as well as of a different negotiating approach adopted for the settlement of specific issues. Furthermore, the evaluation of contract work in progress at June 30, 2015 was affected by delays or cancellations of projects already in progress. For projects where variations and claims exceed euro 50 million, estimates were supported by a technical/legal opinion provided by independent consultants. Net sales from operations by industry segment are disclosed in note 34 Information by industry segment. Net sales from operations with related parties are disclosed in note 35 Transactions with related parties.

Net finance income or expense on derivative financial instruments consisted of the following:

| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Derivatives on interest rate | 31 | | 20 | |
| Options | (10 | ) | (16 | ) |
| | (33 | ) | (108 | ) |
Net expense from derivatives of euro 108 million (net expense of euro 33 million in the first half of 2014) was recognized in connection with fair value valuation of certain derivatives which lacked the formal criteria to be treated in accordance with hedge accounting under IFRS as they were entered into for amounts equal to the net exposure to exchange rate risk and interest rate risk, and as such, they cannot be referred to specific trade or financing transactions. Exchange rate derivatives were entered into in order to manage exposures to foreign currency exchange rates arising from the pricing formulas of commodities in the Gas & Power segment. The lack of formal requirements to qualify these derivatives as hedges under IFRS also entailed the recognition in profit or loss of currency translation differences on assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than functional currency, as this effect cannot be offset by changes in the fair value of the related instruments. Net expense on options of euro 16 million (net expense for euro 10 million in the first half 2014) related to the measurement at fair value of the options embedded in the bond convertible into ordinary shares of Snam SpA (expense of euro 22 million in the first half 2014). The measurement at fair value of the options embedded in the bond convertible into ordinary shares of Galp Energia SGPS SA had no effect on the income statement (income of euro 12 million in the first half 2014).

Net gains on disposals amounting to euro 15 million related to: (i) a gain of euro 31 million for the sale of 100% stake of Eni Romania Srl; (ii) a gain of euro 13 million for the sale of a 20% stake (entire stake own) in Fertilizantes Nitrogenados de Oriente CEC and Fertilizantes Nitrogenados de Oriente SA; (iii) a gain of euro 6 for the sale of 32.445% stake (entire stake own) in Ceská Rafinérská AS (CRC); and (iv) a loss of euro 47 million for the sale of a 76% stake in Inversora de Gas Cuyana SA (entire stake owned), a 6.84% stake in Distribudora de Gas Cuyana SA (entire stake owned), a 25% stake in Inversora de Gas del Centro SA (entire stake owned) and a 31.35% stake in Distribudora de Gas del Centro SA (entire stake owned). Net gains on disposals amounting to euro 99 million in the first half of 2014 related for euro 96 million to the divestment of 8.15% of the share capital of Galp Energia SGPS SA, of which euro 77 million related to the reversal of the fair value evaluation reserve. Other net income of euro 182 million (euro 237 million in the first half 2014) related to the remeasurement at market fair value of 61.7 million shares of Galp Energia SGPS SA for euro 129 million (euro 97 million in the first half 2014) and 288.7 million shares of Snam SpA for euro 48 million (euro 96 million in the first half 2014) to which the fair value option was applied as provided for by IAS 39.

| - subsidiaries - outside Italy | 281 | (687 | ) |
| | 345 | (912 | ) |
| | 4,111 | 1,760 | |
The effective tax rate was 96.9% (68.2% in the first half of 2014) compared with a statutory tax rate of 34.5% (33.1% in the first half of 2014). This was calculated by applying the Italian statutory tax rate on corporate profit of 27.5% and a 3.9% (3.5% in the first half 2014) corporate tax rate applicable to the net value of production as provided for by Italian laws. This difference is the consequence of the impact of the net profit reported by the foreign companies of the Exploration & Production segment which are subjected to a higher tax rate, partially offset by the reversal of deferred taxes due to changes in the United Kingdom tax law, and the non-recording of tax charges in the Engineering & Construction segment.

33 Earnings per share
Basic earnings per ordinary share are calculated by dividing net profit for the period attributable to Enis shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding during the period, excluding treasury shares. The average number of ordinary shares used for the calculation of the basic earnings per share outstanding for the first half of 2014 and 2015, was 3,614,997,939 and 3,601,140,133, respectively. Diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing net profit for the period attributable to Enis shareholders by the weighted average number of shares fully-diluted including shares outstanding in the period, excluding treasury shares, including the number of potential shares outstanding in connection with stock-based compensation plans. As of June 30, 2014 and 2015, there are no treasury shares that could be potentially issued and, therefore, the weighted-average number of shares used in the calculation of the basic earnings coincides to the weighted-average number of shares used in the calculation of diluted earnings.

34 Information by industry segment
Enis segmental reporting is established on the basis of the Groups operating segments that are evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (the CEO) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Effective January 1, 2015, Enis segment information was modified to align Enis reportable segments to certain changes in the organization and in profit accountability defined by Enis top management. The main changes adopted compared to the previous setup of the segment information related to:
| | results of the oil and
products trading activities and related risk management
activities were transferred to the Gas & Power
segment, consistently with the new organizational setup.
In previous reporting periods, results of those
activities were reported within the Refining &
Marketing segment as part of a reporting structure which
highlighted results for each stream of commodities. In
2014, this activity reported net sales from operations of
approximately euro 50 billion and an operating loss of
euro 122 million; |
| --- | --- |
| | Refining & Marketing and
Versalis operating segments are now combined into a
single reportable segment because a single manager is
accountable for both the two segments, they show similar
long-term economic performance, have comparable products
and production processes; and |
| | the previous reporting
segments "Corporate and financial companies"
and "Other activities" have been combined being
residual components of the Group, in order to reduce the
number of reportable segments in line with the segmental
reporting of the comparable oil&gas players. |
The segmental financial information reported to the CEO comprises segment revenues, operating profit, as well as segmental assets and liabilities, which are reviewed only on occasion of the statutory reports (the annual and the interim reports). As of June 30, 2015, Enis reportable segments have been regrouped as follows:
| | Exploration &
Production : is engaged in exploring for and
recovering crude oil and natural gas, including
participation to projects for the liquefaction of natural
gas; |
| --- | --- |
| | Gas & Power : is
engaged in supply and marketing of natural gas at
wholesale and retail markets, supply and marketing of LNG
and supply, production and marketing of power at retail
and wholesale markets. Gas & Power is engaged in
supply and marketing of crude oil and oil products
targeting the operational requirements of Enis
refining business and in commodity trading (including
crude oil, natural gas, oil products, power, emission
allowances, etc.) targeting to both hedge and stabilize
the Group industrial and commercial margins according to
an integrated view and to optimize margins; |
| | Refining & Marketing
and Chemicals : is engaged in manufacturing, supply
and distribution and marketing activities for oil
products and chemicals. In previous reporting periods,
these two operating segments were reported separately; |
| | Engineering &
Construction : Eni through its subsidiary Saipem which
is listed on the Italian Stock Exchange (Enis share
being 43.11%) is engaged in the design, procurement and
construction of industrial complexes, plants and
infrastructures for the oil&gas industries and in
supplying drilling and other oilfield services; and |
| | Corporate and other
activities : represents the key support functions,
comprising holdings and treasury, headquarters, central
functions like IT, HR, real estate, self-insurance
activities, as well as the Group environmental clean-up
and remediation activities performed by the subsidiary
Syndial. |
The comparative reporting periods of this press release have been restated consistently with the new segmental reporting adopted by the Group effective January 1, 2015.

Subsidiaries, joint arrangements and affiliates resident in Countries with a privileged tax regime Pending the publication of the decree that identifies the list of Countries and territories allowing an adequate exchange of information and owning a taxation level not significantly lower than the one applied in Italy, at the present, the Countries with a privileged tax regime are identified by the decree issued by the Ministry for the Economy and Finance dated November 21, 2001: (i) in general and without distinctions, by Article 1; and (ii) with the exclusion of specific cases, by Article 2. Furthermore, pursuant to Article No. 167 of the Italian Income Tax Code, as amended by Law No. 190 of 2014, tax regimes are considered as privileged in any case if they allow a special taxation lower than 50 percent of the one applied in Italy, even if these Countries or territories apply a general system of taxation not lower than 50 percent of the one applied in Italy. A non-mandatory list of the special tax regimes will be provided for by order of the Director of the Italian Revenue Agency. At June 30, 2015, Eni controls 9 companies or branches based in countries with a privileged tax regime (1) as identified by the Decree and by Article No. 167, paragraph 4 of the Italian Income Tax Code. Of these 9 companies, 5 are subject to taxation in Italy because they are included in the tax return of Eni. The remaining 4 companies are not subject to Italian taxation, but to the specific local tax regimes, as a consequence of the exemption obtained by the Italian Revenue Agency by taking into account of the taxation level applied or of the industrial and commercial activities carried out. Of these 9 companies, 7 come from the acquisitions of Lasmo Plc, Bouygues Offshore SA, the activities carried out in Congo by Maurel & Prom and Burren Energy Plc. These subsidiaries, resident or located in Countries identified by the Decree, did not issued financial instruments and all the financial statements for 2014 were audited by Ernst & Young. In addition, at June 30, 2015, Eni owns, directly or indirectly, interests not lower than 20% in the profit of 3 companies resident or located in Countries or territories with a privileged tax regime as identified by the Decree and by Article No. 167 of the Italian Income Tax Code, of which 2 are subject to taxation in Italy because they benefit of the privileged tax regime and 1 is subject to local taxation as a consequence of the exemption obtained by the Italian Revenue Agency by taking into account of the industrial and commercial activities carried out. In the following list of subsidiaries, joint arrangements and associates, companies resident in Countries or territories listed in the Decree are marked with a footnote indicating the reference to the Articles of the Decree and the related taxation in Italy.

Eni discovers a supergiant gas field in the Egyptian offshore, the largest ever found in the Mediterranean Sea
- The discovery, after its full development, will be able to ensure satisfying Egypts natural gas demand for decades
- According to the well and geophysical data available, the field could hold a potential of 30 trillion cubic feet of lean gas in place, therefore representing one of the worlds largest natural-gas finds, located in a permit where Eni holds a 100% of the Contractors working interest
- Enis CEO, Claudio Descalzi, has recently traveled to Cairo to discuss the new exploration success with the Egyptian institutional leaders
San Donato Milanese (Milan), August 30, 2015 - Eni has made a world class supergiant gas discovery at its Zohr Prospect, in the deep waters of Egypt. The discovery well Zohr 1X NFW is located in the economic waters of Egypts Offshore Mediterranean, in 4,757 feet of water depth (1,450 meters), in the Shorouk Block, signed in January 2014 with the Egyptian Ministry of Petroleum and the Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Company (EGAS) following a competitive international Bid Round.
According to the well and seismic information available, the discovery could hold a potential of 30 trillion cubic feet of lean gas in place (5.5 billion barrels of oil equivalent in place) covering an area of about 100 square kilometers. Zohr is the largest gas discovery ever made in Egypt and in the Mediterranean Sea and could become one of the worlds largest natural-gas finds. This exploration success will give a major contribution in satisfying Egypts natural gas demand for decades.
Eni will immediately appraise the field with the aim of accelerating a fast track development of the discovery that will utilize at best the existing offshore and onshore infrastructures.
Zohr 1X NFW was drilled to a total depth of approximately 13,553 feet (4,131 meters) and hit 2,067 feet (630 meters) of hydrocarbon column in a carbonate sequence of Miocene age with excellent

reservoir characteristics (400 meters plus of net pay). Zohrs structure has also a deeper Cretaceous upside that will be targeted in the future with a dedicated well.
Enis CEO, Claudio Descalzi, has recently traveled to Cairo to update Egypts President, Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi, on this important success, and discuss this discovery with the Prime Minister, Ibrahim Mahlab, and the Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources, Sherif Ismail.
"Its a very important day for Eni and its people. This outstanding result confirms our expertise and our technological innovation capacity with immediate operational application, and above all shows the strength of the cooperation spirit amongst all the companys units which are at the foundation of our great successes. Our exploration strategy allows us to persist in the mature areas of countries which we have known for decades and has proved to be winning, reconfirming that Egypt has still great potential. This historic discovery will be able to transform the energy scenario of Egypt in which we have been welcomed for over 60 years. The exploration activities are central to our growth strategy: in the last 7 years we have discovered 10 billion barrels of resources and 300 million in the first half of the year, confirming Enis leading position in the industry. This exploration success acquires an even greater value as it was made in Egypt which is strategic for Eni, and where important synergies with the existing infrastructures can be exploited allowing us a fast production startup", Claudio Descalzi commented.
Eni, through its subsidiary IEOC Production BV, holds a 100% of the Contractors working interest in the Shorouk Block and is the operator of the concession. Eni has been present in Egypt since 1954 through its subsidiary IEOC, a company which has always been a frontrunner in exploring and exploiting gas resources in Egypt since the discovery of the Abu Maadi Field in 1967. By adopting new exploration concepts, leading edge technologies and operational approaches, through AGIBA and Petrobel, operating companies participated by IEOC and EGPC, Eni has successfully managed to double production of oil from the Western Desert and the GOS Abu Rudeis Concessions in the last three years as well as to revamp production from the Abu Maadi plays in the Nile Delta area following the recently announced Nidoco NW 2 discovery (Nooros prospect) currently already in production. Eni is the main hydrocarbon producer in Egypt, with a daily equity production of 200,000 barrels of oil equivalent.
