Eni Targets First Gas From Egypt Discovery Within Two Years

Italian energy major Eni is working toward a final investment decision on the Denise West gas discovery offshore Egypt within the next few months, with first production targeted in less than two years. Eni CEO Claudio Descalzi discussed the development plans with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi on Tuesday as the company outlined its latest upstream investments and exploration program in the country. Denise West, discovered in April in the Temsah Concession in the Eastern Mediterranean, is estimated to contain around 2 trillion cubic feet of gas and 130 million barrels of condensate in place. The discovery sits less than 10 kilometers from existing infrastructure, giving Eni the option of a relatively rapid and infrastructure-led development. Eni is working with bp and the Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation on the project, operating the Denise Development Lease with a 50% contractor working interest, with bp holding the other 50%. Operations are conducted through Petrobel, the joint venture between Eni and EGPC. The project forms part of a broader Eni drilling and exploration campaign in Egypt that began in October 2025, which has lifted production from its offshore Sinai fields by 50% and yielded additional discoveries in the offshore Nile Delta and Western Desert. Eni said it remains Egypt's largest oil and gas producer, with equity production of roughly 242,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2025. The renewed investment comes as Eni seeks to make greater use of Egypt's existing gas infrastructure while developing both domestic resources and discoveries elsewhere in the Eastern Mediterranean, including the Cronos project offshore Cyprus, which reached a final investment decision in July and holds more than 3 Tcf of gas in place, with first gas targeted for 2028.

Big Oil Bets Billions on Nuclear Fusion

Global private investment in nuclear fusion hit a record $4.48 billion in 2025, up 69% from a year earlier, as major energy companies like Eni, Equinor, Chevron, Shell, and Cenovus ramp up their commitments. Eni plans to deploy a commercial fusion power plant in Europe by the early 2040s, building on its investment in Commonwealth Fusion Systems and a $1 billion agreement to buy electricity from the startup's first U.S. plant. Eni is also forming a joint venture with the UK Atomic Energy Authority to develop fuel systems for fusion reactors, targeting a large-scale tritium fuel-cycle facility by 2028. Commonwealth Fusion Systems raised another $1 billion in July, bringing its total funding to $4 billion, and its planned 400-MW ARC facility in Virginia is the first fusion project to apply for grid interconnection. Chevron has backed TAE Technologies and Zap Energy, while Shell invested in Zap's $130 million Series D round, and Cenovus's early bet on General Fusion is moving toward a Nasdaq listing.

Kazakhstan explores new oil export routes after Black Sea disruptions

Kazakhstan is considering re-routing part of its crude oil exports through pipelines via Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Turkey after Ukrainian drone attacks repeatedly disrupted shipments from Russia's Black Sea port of Novorossiysk. The Kazakh Ministry of Energy said on Monday that options include the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan system, shipments across the Caspian Sea through Azerbaijan, and the Baku-Supsa route, while also boosting eastward supply via pipeline to China. Flows through the Caspian Pipeline Consortium, which handles most of Kazakhstan's crude exports from fields operated by international firms including Chevron, ExxonMobil, Shell, and Eni, were suspended on three separate occasions in July alone. The latest week-long shutdown briefly removed more than 1 million barrels per day of Kazakh production from the market, adding to global supply risks.

Global oil stocks tumble as crude prices retreat after U.S. halts Iran strikes

Shares in oil and gas producers across the U.S. and Europe fell sharply after the U.S. military halted two weeks of strikes on Iran, with Tehran signaling it would suspend its own attacks as long as the pause holds, easing fears of a broader Middle East escalation and dragging crude prices lower. In the U.S., Chevron and Exxon Mobil dropped about 2.5% each, ConocoPhillips slid 3.1%, Devon Energy fell 3%, Occidental Petroleum shed 3.7%, and Diamondback Energy lost 2.7%, while oilfield services companies SLB and Halliburton slipped 1.3% and 1.8% respectively. European names saw steeper declines, with the region's oil and gas index down about 2%, as BP fell 3.6%, Equinor lost 5.4%, Var Energi, Eni, and Maurel & Prom dropped more than 4% each, and TotalEnergies and OMV were down around 3% each. Brent crude futures tumbled 6.7% to $90.24 a barrel following the announcements. The pause came as diplomats sought to give peace talks space after a China-led push to revive stalled negotiations in Pakistan, though analysts cautioned that the path to a lasting peace remains uncertain with contentious issues including Iran's nuclear program and the Strait of Hormuz remaining closed under a U.S. blockade.

Eni CEO warns prolonged Middle East conflict could push oil prices higher

Eni CEO Claudio Descalzi warned that a prolonged conflict in the Middle East could drive oil prices above their recent $80 to $100 per barrel range by early 2027, fueling inflation and weighing on global energy demand. In an interview with Il Sole 24 Ore, Descalzi said governments have tapped strategic reserves to offset supply disruptions, but cautioned that relying on stockpiles is not sustainable because reserves are limited. He noted that global oil inventories have been declining since the outbreak of the Iran conflict earlier this year, with stock draws accelerating to about 4.6 million barrels per day in May from an average of 3.8 million barrels per day. Descalzi urged policymakers to strengthen energy security by diversifying supply sources and transportation routes, deepening ties with producers in Africa, Latin America and Southeast Asia while reducing reliance on vulnerable maritime chokepoints. The comments come as rising electricity demand from artificial intelligence and data centers increases pressure to secure reliable energy supplies.

The firm expects lower energy prices in the second half of the year to weigh on profitability, though Eni is positioned to offset mature field declines with new gas and LNG projects in 2026. Eni targets 3-4% underlying oil and gas production growth for 2026, with gross capex of €7 billion and net capex of €5 billion. The company recently boosted its share buyback by about 90% to €2.8 billion and raised its full-year cash flow from operations guidance by 20% to €13.8 billion.

Oil Markets Brace for a Summer of Hormuz Volatility

Brent crude topped $73 per barrel as renewed US-Iran strikes keep the Strait of Hormuz on edge, leaving oil markets vulnerable to sharp summer price swings. Daily Hormuz transits have slowed to 20-25 ships this week, mostly inbound, suggesting shippers await safer conditions, while global crude on water jumped to 1.29 billion barrels, its highest since hostilities began. In deal news, San Mateo Midstream agreed to buy Cardinal Midstream Partners for $752 million, TotalEnergies and BP each took a 10% stake in the UAE's Bab Gas Cap project, and ENI and ADNOC's XRG signed for three Vaca Muerta exploration blocks. Other developments include China lifting some refined product export restrictions, US natural gas futures rising above $3.3 per MMBtu on extreme heat forecasts, and ADNOC switching its offshore crude pricing to a Dubai benchmark differential.

Libya Oil Output Hits 13-Year High as Western Firms Bet on Long-Term Growth

Libya's oil production has reached 1.487 million barrels per day, the highest level in 13 years, as the state-owned National Oil Corporation targets 2.1 million barrels per day within three to five years. The country holds 48 billion barrels of proved crude reserves, the largest in Africa, and Western companies including TotalEnergies, Eni, BP, and KBR are expanding investments despite ongoing political instability. A 2026 national budget allocates a 12 billion Libyan dinar ring-fenced operational budget to the National Oil Corporation, but rival factions and the Grand Mufti have rejected the deal, raising risks of future oil blockades. Eni recently announced new offshore gas discoveries near the Bahr Essalam field with over 1 trillion cubic feet of gas in place, while TotalEnergies restarted production at the Mabruk oil field. A senior source close to the European Union's energy security complex told Oilprice.com that Libya remains one of the few large-scale oil and gas options available despite its troubles since 2011.

Chevron Confirms Safe Venezuela Operations After Major Earthquakes

Chevron confirmed its operations in Venezuela remain unaffected after two powerful earthquakes measuring 7.2 and 7.5 in magnitude. All employees are safe and accounted for, and the company's three onshore heavy crude projects continue normal operations. Key oil infrastructure, including the Paraguaná refining complex and the José export terminal, also maintained regular activities. Other international operators such as Eni and Repsol reported their Venezuelan assets remain operational, with Eni continuing natural gas supply for about half of the country's gas-fired power generation. Chevron, which contributes roughly a quarter of Venezuela's total crude output, reaffirmed its commitment to employee safety and community support during the recovery.

BP and Eni's Azule Energy Approves Final Investment Decision for Angola FPSO Project

BP and Eni's Azule Energy joint venture has approved a final investment decision for a large floating production, storage and offloading vessel project offshore Angola. The Angola FPSO project marks a significant step in BP's international upstream oil and gas expansion. At the same time, incoming CEO Meg O'Neill is preparing a major corporate reorganisation that will consolidate BP into two core business units, upstream and downstream. The restructuring aims to improve capital discipline and clarify accountability for projects such as Greater PAJ and Caspian gas developments. Investors may want to monitor execution on the FPSO development and the timing of the new structure, as both could shape how BP allocates capital and manages risk across its portfolio.

Eni and Azule Energy approve Angola's first integrated cross-block offshore oil project

Eni and its 50-50 joint venture Azule Energy have taken the final investment decision for the Greater PAJ Project, Angola's first integrated cross-block offshore development. The project will combine five fields—Palas, Astraea, Juno, Urano and Dione—across Blocks 31 and 31/21 into a single hub tied to a new floating production, storage and offloading vessel with a capacity of 95,000 barrels of oil per day. The FPSO will also export 70 million standard cubic feet of gas per day to the Angola LNG facility via a new line connected to existing Block 31 infrastructure. First oil is targeted for the first half of 2029, supporting Eni's production growth and Angola's output goals.
